    The everlasting ph1 ITB Build **GREEN-BUILD STARTS AT PAGE 100**

    I was lucky with mine as i used the blue Clio interior as a guide to where everything plugs in. So we had the interior loom sitting in the white shell then labelled up what went where while cross referencing. TBH i'm not doing the loom/electrics, it's in the capable hands of a friend that is a...

    White Trackday 172 Project *Contains Awesome*

    Re: White Trackday 172 Project I had to modify the seat subframes to utilise the oe mounting points in the blue Clio as the subfames were for a Fiat Bravo. What i realised in the white shell is the floorpan is different to acommodate bucket seat sidemounts. So the seat subframs i modified now...

    Clio rs owners age.

    I'm 36 in July and have been in Clio 172 ownership for almost 3 years now, i've been into hot hatches since passing my driving test in 1996 and at this moment in time have no intentions of driving anything different. I too owned 5 GT turbos for years in my late 20s early 30s but found the 172...

    RE: Heater matrix delete pipe, that 180 degree pipe 19mm ID, would that fit on the OE heater matrix pipes ok? I'm doing exactly the same in my engine bay. Did you buy it from 'autoperformanceonline' from E Bay ;) Massive props to you on this project, attention to detail is awesome

    Project White Clio- 6 weeks on

    Christopher: The supercharger, engine etc was all sold. The only thing left which I bought was the bare shell with the rollcage Jack: I thought I'd paint the wheels black to go with the plastic side strips and the foglight ducts. I had the carbon bonnet on the other Clio so I thought I'd fit...

    K Tec Carbon Bonnet Weight - Phase 1

    I'd imagine aluminium bonnets are hard to come by nowadays, it would be interesting to know how much they weigh

    K Tec Carbon Bonnet Weight - Phase 1

    I've just weighed the carbon bonnet and the steel phs1 bonnet to see the difference Carbon: 8.3kgs Steel: 12kgs Just thought i'd post this for the peeps looking into losing weight from their Clios

    Thanks postman- FK content

    Personally from my time in this club a few people will go with the B14 when people ask for recommendations. The way I see the FK coilover kit is it fits nicely in the price range between your K Tec, Weitec at say £300-500 area and your £800 plus B14, AST etc. The dampers on the FK kit are made...

    Thanks postman- FK content

    Really happy to finally have adjustable damping again, i liked the option on my Koni yellow sports suspension. Now i can dial them in to have the car set up just the way i want it :)

    Thanks postman- FK content

    Yeah they're being fitted to my ph1 172, i paid £654 inc delivery. Venom have bumped their price for these up to £767

    Thanks postman- FK content

    Super chuffed to come home to these earlier. After Venom bumping up their prices by £200 and telling me to wait 2-3 weeks i ordered these from europerformance last Wednesday, 5 days not including the weekend direct from Germany. Can't wait to fit them on the white project Clio 172 this weekend...

    Coilover set-up advice pls

    No negative camber up front or toe out??

    pikey suspension setup

    I'd be surprised if none of the bushes or engine mounts haven't been uprated

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    New prices now showing on their website, I'm making the call to europerformance

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    Thing is do I ring Venom back and tell them I can buy them cheaper elsewhere or just make the call to europerformance and just order them?

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    I've been looking for weeks and venom were always £577 and never mentioned special offer deal price

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    Somethings clearly not right, I've just rang europerformance and not only are they in stock but they can sell them to me for £650 inc delivery. Venom told me a 2-3 week wait, europerformance no later than 5 days!

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    Something doesn't seem right, I think as I ordered them yesterday he should honour the £577
  27. Ricardos

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    The annoying thing is I ordered them yesterday and he confirmed the £577, today he's ringing me up to say they're £777. Effectively going up in price overnight.....

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    I wanted adjustable damping, Bilstein don't give me that

    FK Konigsport, revised prices

    Ordered these yesterday, just had a phone call from Venom motorsport to say the FK prices have gone up £200 to £770! Kind of thrown a spanner in the works and now having to decide to dig deep or purchase something else. He's offered me a Spax coilover kit for £515 which is adjustable height...
