i didnt mean that as an attack at your car. Just trying to show my point that peoples opinion of what looks good differs from person to person. There's no "right" way to mod a car, its all personal opinion. IMO, the lower the better! because the world doesn't move to the beat of just one drum...

obviously peoples opinion of what looks right/good differs. personally i think the front of yours needs to come down a bit, you've got no arch gap at the rear at all, but plenty at the front,

im honoured you think so, but your insane amount of poke is an inspiration to us all! want a half cage and new steering wheel now :D

if yours has a 58mm bolt space, then theres a set of coilovers on the for sale section for £170! get involved! lol

hence why im asking lol, but if the disc is pretty thick and strong, and with a block of wood on the stand for the disc to sink into, it should spread the weight evenly

To the floor!

i want to see how far my coilovers are from the bump stops, however its quite low and the bumpstops are all the way up inside the chassis, and obviously the wheel is in the way, jacking the car up means the suspension isn't carrying the weight of the car! can i take the wheel off, and slowly...

really cant wait for this now, but how are the cars going to be arranged??

annoyingly so lol, would 25mm even work on the back? would it not hit?? no jack fits under my car, i have to reverse it onto wood, then use the widdow maker that came with the car to raise it abit more, then get my jack under, mine doesnt go down overly fast though

25mm works well on the front, but as you said, makes the rear look abit out of place, YOU HAVE THE SAME JACK AS ME! and yes that did require capitals lol

that's amazing, im entering for that!

:O?! blasphemy!! then it wont look as low!!

I hate the oem ph1 splitter, they're thin metal with rubber over the top, flex it too much and it will stay like that, and all of the ones i had, ended up like that :( oh i sure as hell havnt raise it yet, it will be low for FCS at least, tbh i probs wont raise it despite anything lol, i love...

well its not shattered yet, so thumbs up! its pretty flimsy plastic so i imagine itll just flex around the speedhumps! i just wish my driveshafts didnt hit my inner wing :( have you tried the 25mm spacers? its just trial and error until its right stance wise, im finally semi happy with mine...

everything from "and BIF" below is, sorry you posted as i was writing, so after i just edited, seems it didnt go well :(

it should 58mm, in experience its only 8v engined clios of both ph1 and ph2 that have the 52mm spacing, easiest thing to do it either take a wheel off, or put it on full lock, and measure! middle of the bottom bolt, to the middle of the top! glad you like it dude :) and BIF, theyre...

cheers dude, yours does look low, the complete absence of arch gap on the front looks great!

driveshaft rubbing on the inner wing/chassis??

could it be your driveshaft rubbing on the inner wing?? if theres a score all around the driveshaft?? you have to be pretty low to get this though

also christopher, i looked back, using photoshop must fail harder?

its not that much bigger than a regular non-sport splitter, but you caught me, its a regular height clio underneith :(

thanks guys! this makes me happy lol, ive tried to find a suitable compromise between level sills, and arch gap, unfortunatley, ive found an issue today which may mean it needs to be raised :( but i will need to ponder upon the matter first. also i like the splitter, it gives it that "f**k...

quite a few people on here have done it, and no failures so far. the bolts that hole the drum on are pretty long, so long as you do the bolt up to the correct tightness i dont see why it would be unsafe. and mine passed an MOT, but i wouldnt accept any liability if it did fall off.

i did pikey camber, take off the brake drum, and put washers under the bottom two bolts, doubt im going to add camber again, wasnt a massive fan of it

ayeeeeeeees, are you mate?? and will you be painted?? :rasp:

its not the model of clio that makes the difference, its the distance between hub bolts, on the very low spec (mine :D) its 52mm, and 58mm on all the other (except 1*2). Vmax do the coilover in 52mm for 399, but thats the cheapest i found, full conversion cost around 300, that included the...

wheels are 15" 7j, with 165/50/15s on bit of stretch, i did have camber on the rear reyes, but i thought it looked broken so took it off, its on rokkor coilovers £168, for just the coilovers, but they only do them in 58mm so a hub conversion was necessary, i do want to smooth the...

took a little drive all over today, not that many speedbumps where i live, and most of them are really long so only the splitter hits, and loosing the splitter is an occupational hazard!

Finally on coilovers, Maybe a bit too low for some peoples tastes, but I love it! and believe it or not, only the splitter catches the floor, no tyre scrubbage either! win! Bearing in mind one wheel is in the gutter! And a couple more, Plans are to get some silvervisions and...

sorry to drag up an old thread, but i think i can now be a contender! Lowness
