They look decent too, I don't think Demon Tweeks stocks these so havent tried them. I was set on recaros, but I didn't find them very comfortable.
I'm tinkering with the seat position atm, got a 40mm steering wheel spacer on my Xmas list
The best clio I’ve driven on the road was a flame red one I had. BC Coilovers, 20mm spacers and a RARB - it just handled so so well. I’d even argue it was comfier than a standard one. Excellent choice.
...so need to get a move on.
Bits ordered so far for the car:
- New OEM Cup dampers from RPD.
- PMS Stuble axle spacer kit.
- PMS front 10mm spacers.
- PBS Pro Race front pads.
- Brembo HC front discs.
- Braided front and rear lines.
- Nankang NS2R's
- Powerflex bushes - wishbones, steering...
What Flavour of Clio?
On my 182 my fav mods are my PMS shifter, (I am over 6 foot and it was a bit low down before).
Pro AM racing Geo Correction kit, this feels great on track, not sure its needed on a road Car.
Sabelt Steering wheel and a 20mm spacer.
Styling wise I love my Decals and 15" F1 OZ's
I did mean the 172 :)
What coilovers are you running on the front?
This setup would save me a lot of cost on full coilovers setup and like you say, gives good handling.
For the mk4? No chance :ROFLMAO:
172 cup Track
Front - 8kg spring, 4 clicks back from full stiff on the damper (full soft if wet) - 30mm drop - PMS top mounts and brace - 20mm spacers
Rear - eibach sportline - cup shock - whiteline arb (disconnect if wet) - 25mm drop - 15mms spacers
Thank you everyone for your many opinions.

The kit is supplied with all required parts including discs, bells, billet one piece caliper spacers, longer bolts and AP Racing disc to bell bolts.
I'll consider Reyland as the favorite.
I've spent alot of time looking at this, but could never find anything which suits.
Phase 2 Clio V6 are pretty close and I think you could make work with a spacer behind the disc. The problem is, they're 2mm thicker than the 197 disc and I'm not sure if the calliper is wide enough to accept...
...pads all around
Ultraleggeras 16" with continental contisport3
172 mani, sport cat, middle and rear muffler, I think 2.25" diameter
Rear shim spacers, 10mm
I'm just in love with the car, this is what a clio sport should feel like, asking you to floor it.
And of course, no car is perfect, so...
...many weeks, aside from a wallpaper pasting table, and carpet samples.
Cheeky fleet shot outside the gaff.
Could really do with some spacers for when I run the F1s.
During one of the many instances with me driving my GFs car, noticing the low oil light being on, and her replying...
So I have had to change my rear discs for my 182 ff and essentially I have a strong belief that whoever fitted the rear brakes before me tossed the rear bearing spacer as the car started droning very quickly. I am not sure where to get the washer/spacer from so if anyone can point me in the...
Moly grease is best, a think layer on the end of the springs will help also, there should be a plastic spacer between the spring and helper spring, just incase this is missing
Hey thanks,
30mm spacers were fine. It was done to make the car look good more than anything because I didn't want poor fitment. I never thought that the car drove bad and I ran spacers for most of my ownership. I'm also not a racing driver and so never found that the spacers hindered my...
...Remove the rest of the air con system
Sort out a solution for the front arch liners - might just get some material and attach it to the inner wings to cover up the big holes into the engine bay
Get annoyed at the rust issues as sell a kidney to fund sorting it
Fit some front wheel spacers on it
...with ferodo ds3000pads and a new 24mm master cylinder and RS 280mm rotors
At that time I had OZ superturismo and those needed some chunky spacers to clear the calipers. After a while I fitted some Cromodora's and with those 5mm spacers where enough.
The braking was really strong. They had a...
hey nice build you have here!
I see that you're running 30mm spacers- how do you cope up with that? Suspension guru's will say that the scrub radius will be all over the place and that the best way to substantially increase track width is with longer wishbones/lower ball joints and longer...
...reference for if I go back to running standard belts in the future - which I might do when my little one gets bigger.
For the moment, I think I’ll opt for getting new sleeves/spacers made for the rear, so I’ll size up what I need and that way it gives me flexibility to run both configurations.
You need thicker spacers and I also used longer bolts too as the ones that came with it didn't fully reach the end of the mounting holes. I bet something like a deep socket would work as a spacer.
...and I’ve got a question regarding the fitting of the rear bar that goes between the rear seatbelt mount.
The cage came with 2 sets of spacers; 2 thick & 2 thin:-
From some CS research and trial on the car the, it appears the thick ones go on the front bar by the lower front seatbelt...
