As above more updates. I bought some BH products to sort the surface rust. Still stewing in Deox. Then last weekend a rather busy shift with @k.sokhi PMS AC Delete fitted New Rad and expansion tank (bottom right, old expansion tank) Powdercoated Subframe with fresh bolts in...

So after I did all of the above I manage to slip a disc in my back which left me bed bound and unable to play cars. There wasn't much I could do as the Subframe was at the powdercoaters and I was waiting on a few bits. Eventually I was back on my feet and able to do a few bits on the car...

Fair play. This is good.

Chaps, Converting the Clio to EPAS including a DCI rack. Whilst I sent the subframe away for powdercoating etc. I seem to have misplaced the bolts that attach or attached the original rack to the subframe. I notice the DCI/EPAS rack has no bushes and bolts direct to the subframe. Anyone...

Just give them a heads up, they're sound and as it's just four cars should be cool. It's when 10+ cars pull up is when issues arise. Cool little place.

It'll still be in bits as is my spine. Lol. Have a good trip. Have you told Baffle your coming? Might be good to give them a heads up, they aren't really set up for many cars and favour bikes over cars.

Again, thanks all. Will be the ordered. Just need a seperate beam to refurb!

Nice one. Why links to male and female? The image in Olly's post looks like 2 female threads.

@its.bowz on instagram for more.....

I'll be dropping the rear beam on my Clio at some point and one thing I want to do in an effort to make life a little easier is plug the brake lines. I see @Amos91 did something similar, anyone know where I can get these blanks/plugs from? Cheers,

Thanks gents. 😎

But this (my issue, which isn't a issue, in the picture) in the picture is fine? How'd you change the disc when the studs are locktight'd in, crack them free? Again, never changed the disc/hub on the rear of a Clio so I am totally wet behind the ears. Ha.

Riiight. So it's not like the front? Where you can slip the disc over the studs. Of all my clios I've never touched the rear discs. So this area is new to me. Appreciate the replies.

Hello, Fitting a stud and nut kit to the rear of the clio and the shoulder/knob/wide but doesn't go through the disc. If I were to fit these (with locktite) I wouldn't be able to take the disc off? Are these the wrong studs? Yes I need new discs.

Great updates. Still think the best and most notable out of everything was getting the rear lights back to OEM and not tinted. Great work!

Funnily enough, had a call from the powdercoater today and the subframe and other bits are done. I just couldn't get them today. Pick them up Monday. Been keeping busy by refreshing the calipers as they were multiple colours and peeling. Stripped them back and gone for an OEM silver. Once the...

Lovely updates as per usual.

Knowing I'd have a fresh Subframe and ARB (and powerflex purple bushes) I could have old or at least rusty dirty hardware on it. Saw a hack on here about using citric acid to freshen things up. Overall pretty happy with how they came out. However the outer ARB brackets were beyond saving...

We got the Subframe off and eventually got the PAS line (that caused us to remove the Subrframe) off. Filled the PAS rack with fluid, went to fit the loop kit and I soon found out why the one line wouldn't come out, it had been cross threaded somehow. This now meant I couldn't loop the rack...

I have many an update. Firstly, picking up where I left off. The USB port issue abiuve was solved with a new USB plug. Wasn't a wiring issue but a fault with the USB port itself. It goes mildly down hill from here. I wanted to fit EPAS as my PAS system was leaking and at the last track...

Great updates. Currently going through the Subrframe pain myself. Where is the cage from?

Should add, the USB port/cigarette lighter still doesn't work but the CD player and climate does. Any help/advice/common issues before I mess something else up?

I collected the Clio, probably 2 weeks ago now, thought I'd updated this....anyway here it is It took a little while longer that anticipated, however it was worth the wait. The bodyshop also fitted the trophy spoiler which really sets it off. When I collected the Clio I asked if it...

For anyone googling or searching for an immobiliser answer, mine was the 15amp USB fuse in the engine bay. Looked visually fine but it turned out to be goosed. Replaced fired back in to life. Still no cigarette lighter power....problem for another day.

For a while my cigarette lighter (which is a USB port now due to previous owner) hasn't worked. I set about trying to fix it this weekend. I popped a multi meter on the wire/s to the USB/Cig lighter and some how shorted it. I heared a noise, albeit brief. Then the CD player and climate was...

Bodyshop emailed earlier in the week with an update and I asked if I could drop the spoiler off and have a look at it, which they had no problem with. Dropped the spoiler and side skirts off which will be fitted when I collect next week. I spoke to the actual fabricator to understand...

Popped to see @Toms_clio at the weekend to collect a replica V6 spoiler in RB. Believe it come from @Jekyll 's old car. No news on when I'm getting the clio back, but it's booked for an MOT on Saturday, hopefully I get it back before then. Also booked tickets to ClioSport Festival!

Love checking for updates on this. Keep it up.

Bodywork update. Firstly, it's in the bodyshop dropped it off 2 weeks ago Any one else have anxiety when dropping a car off to have work done "please don't ring me with bad news!" 2 weeks later and no phone call, no news is good news? There's a play centre right next door to the bodyshop...

Hey mate, recognise the name from IG. Definitely, should get a little drive out sorted for summer and a track day at Llandow sounds good.
