I thought about doing this on the phase 1, i'd have a CAF in the passenger side but thinking its a pain to swap the headlights over as it's not a dedicated track only car

On phase 1 models, grind most of the metal section out behind the passenger headlight. Makes it easier to change the belt and lose weight lol

Redundant wiring, so no: Stereo and speaker wires, stereo, CD multichanger Air con and heater control wires Central locking Electric windows (manual winders) Airbag wiring and ECU Rear wiper and wiring Pollen filter and wiring in scuttle panel Heater matrix

They tick all boxes: camber adjustment, ride height and damper adjustment too. All for a reasonable price... Win Such a shame with the cup pack scenario

I'm ordering FK Konigsport coilovers on Tuesday :)

Finishes tonight just before 9pm

If you look at the pics there's no suspension, hubs, brakes etc. I've used the toolbox to prop the wheel up in the arch to give it the spacered look. My guess is i'd need 20-25mm spacers each side to give it this look, i've looked inside the arch and there's about 50-60mm of clearance between...

Which ones?

The tyres are actually tucked tight behind the inner lip of the arch :)

Been working on the white 172 putting parts on the shell, tonight i thought i'd mock up the metallic grey OZ up front to see how it would look. Sod it, i took a Speedline 2118 off the blue Clio and did the same mock up procedure. If Carlsberg did coilovers and spacers......

My bonnet on E Bay, finishes this coming Sunday http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230605022410&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

Cheers Dan, will out my present set of coilivers and purchase a set of FK

I'm gonna buy a set of these, where's the cheapest company to buy a set from please

Which is a shame, but for me I'm a phase 1 owner and seriously considering purchasing a set

Also fitted the 1.2 dashtop in my 172, looks better IMO.

After having Koni yellow dampers all round i'm seriously tempted to go FK Konigsports. It seems to me you not only get the adjustable height but adjustable damping too which i liked on my Koni sports suspension. The price seems reasonable for what you get. Surely you can't go too far wrong...

LOL!

Negative camber 'spacers' that will rotate!?? Is it just me but in 180 degrees there will be 4 degrees of positive??

Re: White Trackday 172 Project Had to buy another OZ alloy as i found out 1 of the painted alloys was badly buckled. I bough this from Cliospares in Doncaster Trimmed the interior loom right back, airbag, stereo and speakers, central locking, electric windows, heater-AC, rear wiper and...

Blimey that's a big difference!

I'd also flush out the old brake fluid and renew if it hasnt been done

Re: White Trackday 172 Project It all came to about £23 inc VAT, i still need more plastic round inner arch grommets but i'll take them off the blue Clio. I was going to order the lastic inner arches but nearly fainted! So back to the scrapyard

Re: White Trackday 172 Project Thanks, been reading your project thread with great interest. Regards door handle spacers i put my name down in the group buy on here. I believe he has a set and it making copies of them, it's the little parts that make the difference IMO :)

Re: White Trackday 172 Project Cheers, really enjoy working on it and can't wait to start swapping parts over. Fingers crossed in the next week or 2. I need to purchase a few more parts but on the whole there's no rush with this :)

Re: White Trackday 172 Project Interior pics

Re: White Trackday 172 Project As it sits from last weekend I'll be working on it tomorrow all day with a friend, the plan is to trim the interior loom right back to only what we'll need. Basically i'm getting the shell completely ready for when i fit the parts from the blue Clio

Ok so i've had this phase 1 white Clio 172 shell for 3 weeks now so i thought i'd put a few pics on here to show what's been going on. I'll obviously update this thread as and when more work is done to the Clio. The plan is to use my Odyssey blue Clio 172 as a donor using the brakes...

Doh! I should have put in the title 172/182 cup Clios, apologies

For the people that have ex Clio cup race cars, would it be possible to upload some pics I i can see what it looks like. Anything you have would be appreciated Thanks

Anyone??
