I have fg tailgate and a few other parts on order but even then 900kg is about my target, seen one on here listed as 840kg but don't know where to loose another 80kg.

Mine is 920kg with half a tank of fuel. still has heaters/dash and passenger seat poly windows fg doors carbon bonnet fully stripped 6 point cage.

I will stick a new motor on it over the weekend , it would explain the jutting i had before if the motor was on its way out and has now died. Could also be the reason the ecu is shutting down.

This is really starting to annoy me now :cry: Today I tried another eps ecu and did some more testing , all power and earths seem good . What i have found is that the ecu runs then seems to shut down after moving the wheel a few times. From reading it sounds like they do this if they over heat...

Got these fitted today , and first impressions are very good even from cold they seem very sharp. Then made up some headlight blanks, not sure if I like them in black or what colour to do them.

Looks like this now under the bonnet

Home until the 16th

Thanks Wayne its not perfect under the bonnet but better than blue, it will get a proper paint job if the engine ever has to come out . Just need to sort the steering out now as it seems to have stopped assisting altogether now lol

Finished under the bonnet today :) I have received a set of CL RC8 pads so just waiting on new discs now and will get the system fully bled through. Not looking forward to keeping the Chronos white while using high carbon content pads, so may end up selling these and keeping my Prorace 2's...

I will take a set James, fire me a pm with payment details. So many bits I want but trying to stop spending on the clio until Ive had some more use out of it , still need to sort out the eps issue aswell.

What length are the PMS studs James, I run 15 mm spacers ?

I got them off of ebay , but have since seen them at Costco .

Its 'Racedeck" plastic tiles , they have seen better days now and really needs a good clean . This is how they looked when first put down about 5 years ago.

Don't think so sorry Wayne

The pad area on the Porsche callipers is bigger but actual piston size is smaller, this makes the brakes really sensitive and on track I think I would end up pushing too hard and end up locking the rears. The smaller master cylinder would bring the piston to master cylinder ratio back to near...

Still not happy with the feel of the front brakes , I was going to try a smaller master cylinder but hoping to do a track day next week so in the mean time I'm going to refit the standard callipers with some new CL pads. I did strip back one side of the engine bay and painted it up, still got...

I just filled the original pipe ends with plastic metal, to make blanks,

Looks good Arran did you get the steering plumbed in and wired up ?

I bought the whiteline one before the PMS one was released.

Dropped the engine last night and made a start on the inlet, While the air box was out I've fitted a BMC filter and some uprated mounts. Engine mounts look almost too good to be hidden in the engine bay

No Problem . I hope to pull the car into the garage at the end of the week and get it ready for the track, just a spanner cheek really going to be interesting out on track for the first time since winter mods. Electric power steering Gripper gearbox and lower FD More weight loss New brakes...

Im not sure if i will be putting the Porsche on stand but will try and bring the clio across.

When i drilled the holes i just covered the bonnet in masking tape , and marked it up then used a hole saw. Covering the carbon in tape should minimise splinters and cracking of the lacquer. I bought the filter backing box from Riviere as a blank and marked and drilled it myself, really easy to...

Looks good Russ , and interesting about the bearing in the shifter as mine has always been stiff since it got fitted and doesn't centralize.

Perfect even just bells would be fine, as could go for 295mm rotors from Martoon at Reyland

Vulture mode on :tongueclosed: , how much do you want for the bells and rotors Tom.

I liked it with the silver aswell , but the seal grey is my fav finnish on them so far they look totally differentin the metal then in the pics. The above pic of the wheel after powdercoat shows how close the centre colour looks to the chrome lips under better lighting.

The wheels have been 3 colours in my ownership, silver ,black and now seal grey. The bottom pic above whas when they were raw polished lips,black center and black bolt heads. The pic near the top of the page with the green clio are how they are now , that pic makes them look darker than they...

I think these older pics I have of It show the lines of the car better.

The head lights are love or hate on them , I do think the GT2 styling is dating a little better than the standard look though. I have never had it on the rollers but would think over 550 bhp , the inlet plenum can give upto 20bhp but it also smooths out the power delivery and helps the turbos...
