I had the headunit in the glovebox first time I stripped the car out - but just velcro'd to the top of the glovebox Because of the solid mounts the vibration meant it kept falling down and then rattling around LOL So this week I bought a head unit holder type thing designed for a land rover -...

Re: 182 Pure Motorsport top mounts& strut brace,worth it over standard rubber mounts? Do a search - the kit is amazing

MY EYES!!!!

Ahhh cheers mate - that's one of the manfrotto suction mounts isn't it. NEED one of those in my life!

Well I could but they would either be permanently up or permanently down due to the roll cage I liked the sunstrip - gonna put it back on. The bloke at the MOT station just said it had to be removed because the wipers ran over it lol

It really does. It feels wrong driving it too Also I had to remove the Renault Sport sunstrip for the MOT - but I need another one because the seating positions is so low I'm constantly dazzled by the sun lol

It's also not if you find an understanding MOT'er The new law is supposed to stop those morons who fit HID kits to standard lights - the beam pattern is all over the place and they blind people I've got 172 xenons fitted to my 172 cup and it just flew through an MOT :)

LOL I think the engine bay is beyond saving - the ends of the wings where the slam panel used to be need painting, the rocker covers need painting, the omex loom is fecking awful - there's bits of cable a meter too long. Have you spotted my blanking plate for the oil breather on top of the...

Batesey - I'll drop you a PM ;) Not much to say really, washed the car on Sunday as the weather seemed nice - took 4 hours and the wheels (although they look fine in the photos) are still covered in bits of tar Need to do a more thorough clean soon Oh yeah the...

You'll lose power - put the cat back on and you'll be quicker ;)

Depends what engines in them - the ford duratec things I had a play with were a lot slower on the straights

There's "fun" and there's "FUN" Dave I had a good time throwing the same Clio around the ring with just DS2500's and brembo HC discs - it still had a full leather interior On a 1-10 fun scale with 10 being piss your pants giggling - it was a good 7 or 8. Chasing porsches was awesome However...

It's not that simple though is it - when the clio is standard the power is more than enough. Track days are fun and it's giggles all round But when you up-rate the suspension, brakes, tyres and make the car grip and stop better you obviously want more power to take advantage of that work What...

If you've not done anything to the car at all yet - and you're talking of happily blowing £10k+ then why not buy an actual clio 1*2 cup race car - there's a few kicking about. And with that you'd get a very nice sequential box, cage etc... All you'd need then if you want more power is to whack...

*ahem* - no offense but what a load of crap I fitted rear ARB, then more front camber, better suspension, got a remap, got it serviced, stripped it, fitted an exhaust, removed the fogs and arch liners and fitted decent brakes. You're saying after all that when the car is handling spot on and...

If you keep your standard internals, fit throttle bodies and a standalone - get a good map you'll be looking at 200-205bhp With cams you'll get 215bhp With modded internals you can push up to 240bhp But as said 200bhp will spin the front wheels up and give you more power than you can 'use'...

Looks gorgeous!!

That's why I stopped at the ITB's - taking it out for a play it's very easy to light a wheel up coming out of corners. Cams will go in with an LSD end of this year for 210-220 bhp

Exactly this I've stripped my cup out - lost over 100kg of weight. That makes a huge difference Then brakes, suspension, cage - felt like a different car and was significantly quicker than any other clio on track Now I've fitted ITB's and standalone management With 30bhp extra it should be more...

I re-used mine when I fitted my 182 manifold - it's a steel gasket so fine

Lovely shots mate How did you attach the camera to your car?

Just do a search for OCR (Optical Character Recognition) If the document is typed it will scan it in as text you can edit If it's handwriting then it's a fair bit more difficult

I wasted a veyron last night from the traffic lights in town!

Does that guide work if the big one at the bottom has snapped? I've had 3 new gaiters and they keep snapping LOL

This man speaks so much sense You could buy a 106 gti, chuck a sandy brown engine on bike bodies in it, diff etc.. for £6-7k It'd cost double that for a clio build

It's every point where the cage is bolted/welded to the car
