LOL! Where do you work man, Sutton Auto Factors iirc? I get quite alot of parts from there

You did have the windows down indeed.... TBH your nips almost poked my eye out ;)

Saw you shoot past Kings mill hospital around 5:15pm tonight.. I was in a van so you wouldn't of noticed me LOL! Car looked awesome man, Vee's have so much road presence spotted you from a 100 meters away

They've been dropped of with a few other select parts for the Tango'ing process :D Cant wait to see the finished results.. "RAL 2004 PURE ORANGE" is the brightest/stupidest orange they do, so hopefully should do the job!

Oraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaange baby ;) Ill decide how much of a tit I look after its done LOL!

oohh R10 maybe?

Blast from the past!! Going to a local powder coating company to FINALLY drop the wheels off

LOOOOOOOOOL!! Anything over "standard" is illegal... So the millions of cars driving around the U.K with different exhausts on are illegal?! All exhaust systems produce different noise levels... all dependant on the make, age, box design etc.

This is going to be my plan over the winter period... Clio Cup alternators/brackets seem to be rarer than hens teeth LOL!

LOL @ the grinder! true, true... weeks to create a program that runs 20mins :dead:

I thought they where only £56 a side from Renault IIRC?

It only takes a matter of minutes to bolt an inlet and plenum on a jig... select the correct program, press the start button and the CNC "matches" them for you ;) I guess no more than a 20min process for the CNC machine..

Ive got a Sparco 300 and absolutely love it, I drive the car everyday.. IMO day to day driving is alot easier now as it doesn't feel like your driving a bus compared to the standard wheel, all movents are nice and subtle now!! Never really need to go more than 3/4 of a turn with the small wheel

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Someone keyed the drivers side door in that last pic lad?!!

every little helps :)

It is a decent weight saver... I estimate around 10 - 15kg if you completely remove all the aircon crap! And even better as your removing weight of the front axle :D

yes they are! Costco FTW though 195/50/R15 £32 a corner :D

Right... Rang KW, as usual a very helpful chap on the phone :) Need to get in touch with Andy @ Yozzasport as he was the original supplier and fill out a "technical reply form" which will then be sent to Germany for analysis, after that KW will send me or Yozzasport a replacement shock absorber...

Jesus man!!! I am sure I saw you the other day aswell, was going to spot a posted thread up! :(

Ive run PF97's on the road for about 5000miles with Brembo Max, braided lines, super blue fluid etc..... experienced no problems at all, in fact I think it could possibly be the best set-up i've tried with out moving onto 4-pots (which IMO is over kill on the clio anway!!)

No PAS = More BHP ;)

Sounds brilliant dude... I've just fitted coilovers, so will have one immense set-up done after everything else is fitted! Found out the other day I have a cup racer team 10minutes away from my house, rang the guys up and they agreed to set the car up for me! Cheers for the info

hmm.. this is sounding more and more promising! What do you mean by "set-up properly" ditz? (or am I just being dense here?!)

I am 50/50 whether or not just to fit a DCI (manual) steering rack and go all out hardcore.. But for the foreseeable future the car is still going to be my daily ride!! Back to the old days of manual steering, ill have to get the arms pumped up again LOL

ahhhh... this doesn't sound too bad then! I had images of changing all the PAS lines/pump just to ditch the air-con, I imagine the new PAS line could be purchased from Renault at some silly price? Just need the find somebody breaking a cup :evil:

Not sure dude... all was going well, I have being absoooolutly loving the new set-up, but after a trip to Manchester last week the drivers side rear strut started making a funny noise over any bump or movement :S then when I checked the dampening cannot be adjusted now, very strange?! just more...

Do you also need a cup alternator, or just the bracket its self? Also do you need any other parts to retain PAS.. I have heard rumours that the cup PAS pump and lines are different? :s

Jesus.... You'll have to ratchet strap this thing down on the rollers soon ;)

They where brought only a few months ago... and have covered no more than 1000miles

yeah they are the Koni/KW rear dampeners.. brilliant quality and I cannot fault them at all! What course of action would you suggest Andy as I can afford to have to car off the road for x amount of days until they rebuild the dampener if I need to send it away to KW?
