oh my god ?

How far away are we?

Don't listen to this guy. Phase 1 or Phase 2? What colour is also important!

Welcome mate. Yeah the car is well known here. You've got yourself a super clean 182 there. Here's his old project thread if you've not already seen it (I'm hoping it was sold honestly) https://www.cliosport.net/threads/d11cup-rb182-project-thread.815835/page-6#post-11600372

Fair enough mate. Was just double checking. @GrahamS is currently building a 172/182 replica down to pretty much the last nut and bolt if you want any inspiration, check his project blogs.

Are you a young driver? If you're currently unable to afford a faster/sportier car, you're probably unable to afford the insurance on a modified car? When I was 18, just adding something simple like lowering springs almost doubled my insurance as 9/10 companies wouldn't insure me for a...

*Rushes to hospital to be there in time for birth of new son* 'Hmmm.. do I have time for a quick photo? Who am I kidding, there's always time for a quick photo'

Took the Cup out to Snake Pass in the Peak District yesterday. Got up at 5:30am to beat the traffic - Snake Pass at 7am on a Sunday morning = almost a private racetrack aha. The Clio took a bit of a caining which I feel a little guilty for, but it did everything I asked of it and more! Here's...

Looking good mate, those lights came up mint!

Awesome photos as usual mate! Just love how clean the engine bay always looks

Ace. Glad you got it sorted mate after the initial disaster! Like you mentioned, at the end of the day- good power figures are nice but not what really matters, what's important is the smile it puts on your face when you put the pedal to the metal

Why don't you work backwards... what's it worth with a rebuilt box? £3-3.5k if you advertise it right? Let's say £3200 A rebuilt box these days goes for say... £400? If you can't do it yourself, fitting about £350, plus consumables like oil and coolant etc... so say another £400? £3200 - 900 =...

Stunning car mate, shame it's come to this. I'm in nearly the same position as I'm hopefully going to be starting a new job soon with a 30 mile commute. Already putting enough wear and tear on mine as it is hitting the country roads as much as possible! Value wise... I'm really not sure...

I was going for shaking my head. Never seen anyone use it for ''simple minded human'' haha

Smh 😂

Nice work mate. Those roll centre kits are a huge investment but look awesome!

Agreed, my 106 had terrible rust issues so glad it's nothing serious like that. Haha wouldn't have blamed you if you took the chair, gotta take your chances!

One thing I'll never ever understand, is why people take passengers out on their track days. People go to all that effort weight shedding and increasing power/weight ratio and then stick 60kg(+++) in the passenger seat!

All fixed! New injector did the job.Nice and easy in the end, just a pain in the arse and another £40 into the endless money pit that is my Clio.

Finally happy with how this thing rides and drives. At long last I've eliminated all knocking and rattling noises by installing the new rear dampers and lowering the exhaust down a few mm using a couple of washers. Went out for a drive on Wednesday with my mate and his new toy. They're quite...

Looks mega mate! Not long until it's finally 'finished' so you can actually enjoy it properly!

Looking sweet mate

Sits just fine mate. My VMaxx Coilovers sit a little lower than yours, and they've got much further to go- but your Bilsteins will outhandle them all day long, it's called compromising!

Dude, change the gearbox oil before making any big commitments (ie dropping it off to have the box removed). You said yourself it's not affecting the drive-ability of the car (yet), so no need to hit the panic button. An oil change is simple enough and cheap and may just solve the issue - even...

I hate it, it looks like I wanted a private plate but couldn't afford CUP, so had to settle for CVP haha Thanks bud.

Looking smart mate.

Cheers bud !

ffs, won't even let me change it now 😢

Thanks mate, Renault wanted £240 or something crazy for a new Stub Axle, ended up buying a used one from a member on here

Couple of updates to keep the thread going. Took probably my favourite ever photo of the Cup not long ago. Forgot to add it to here. This one's from a while ago, @dann2707 & @Coops Mk1 bleeding the brakes whilst I...erm.. @dann2707 also came around last week to help replace the the rear Stub...
