They're the Kam Racing & Scorpion Pugsport ones. Supersprint ones are more expensive I think! :)
I'll just keep my eyes peeled for a second hand one tbh! I wouldn't mind any of the three exhausts really, it's just what's available when I can afford one.
Ahh I'll just get some cheap callipers...
Oft that's mint! Read quite a bit about supersprints. Well, everyone seems to rave about them!
Can't seem to find anywhere that sells them though?
Oh, and with the brakes, could some material not be grinded from the rear of the caliper if there's clearance issues? Or would that just weaken them?
Ah yes! Very similar - Great minds and all that ;)
I'm going to go for uprated pads & discs, so might just be worth buying all the parts separately tbh.
Do you have wheel weights on the inside of your wheels? Apparently they might foul the calipers?
Looks good, that! I like Diablo red.
Just been looking on eBay for 266mm calipers. Found a pair of 206cc calipers for £45 - might go for it...
Already got a BMC CDA which isn't too loud, but it's still quite throaty. Are the Raceland/Ecosse ones quite loud?
I opted the other way! Still want...
They've aged quite well compared to most cars IMO.
Interior/dashboard is Very dated though! Not that it really matters...
It was £2,300 including the plate in the end. Highly priced, yes - but much better condition than anything else for sale at the time. Well worth it IMO.
Yeah, pedal box...
Lol! The Laguna splitter? Not my choice, but I can live with it until I decide on a new un.
Stone chips! It's a 14 year old car :)
Yup! renclio's old one
I wouldn't say no to some good old pops and bangs tbh! Decatted my old Clio in the hope of some pops, but got nothing :(
Yeah! They're old & French, can't expect it to be perfect. Fairly sure I've got a good one though :)
It'll hopefully have the same amount of care during my ownership - no...
Thank you! :)
It really is Adz!! Mmmmm, you should get one - this one will last me for years and years and still be worth a few hundred quid. Good investment :)
Did not know that about the 192 exhaust!
What about a Kam Racing system...
Interesting! It's something I'll have to think about.
Not sure a 2 inch would suit it though? Mainly because it's an outwardly rolled tip... I'd like just a straight cut one tbh.
That's lovely!
Faulkners & Bilsteins seem to be the setup to have, need to do some more research first tbh..
The standard wheels will be staying for sure - I'll just refurb the ones currently on it. Might invest in some Rallye steels for winter use.
Like the 3 inch pugsport! I've always...
I did want to, and still do - just don't have the time or funds to go all out on a properly big project atm. So this was ideal really, being readily mint!
Thanks for the comments!
I will echo what's been said about the splitter - it is a little too large for my taste, but it's an easy fix.
I can't believe the condition it's in, given its age (1997)! Really impressed.
Will do Steve! The rear window de-mist button appears not to work. I can hear...
He certainly has! Proper credit to him.
I can't believe how much nicer to drive it is than my previous Clio! Lots of fun.
Yeah, using a Nikon D5000 with a 50mm F1.8 film lens :)
I spotted this about a week ago advertised on here and various other sites; it looked in superb condition and while it was more expensive than other examples for sale, it was clear how well it had been looked after. Also, the fact that it's more or less standard apart from a BMC CDA was very...
Probably about that much.. Considering just letting them go for cheap as they are tbh. I've done all the hard work - stripping the paint, just need spraying now.
Ohhh it's tempting! But I'm going to just leave it as it is I think. It's getting very difficult to find a good standard 106 now!
Absolutely awesome! The engine feels like its actually got some power! Handles 100x better - its like a big Go Kart, so much fun!
Think I'm going to just leave it standard tbh. Maybe upgrade the dampers/bushes/brakes but I'm happy with it for now
1.6 16v :) goes very well tbh!
I believe I got it from eBay? And it has a sticky back, so you can just whack it on straight away :)
Glad you're enjoying them :)
I still have the Super T's... just haven't gotten round to refurbing them! Definitely want an MX5 at some point, but it'll be as a proper project to get stuck...
Cheers!! :)

Majorly sad to see it go, but it's onto bigger and better things now...
Bye Bye Clio!
