Done 20 miles with it fitted, so can't really say.

ECU off to Andy at ED. Couldn't help but throw the 2118's on. Because no one has ever seen a Clio with 2118's on. They won't be staying white. Off for a refurb and a change of colour. The old airfilter for the RS2 inlet was hanging. So found a similar item. I was speaking to Andy at...

On track to have the RS2 inlet fitting to my 172 Cup. One thing that's bothering me is the filter. It looks like someone has run over it. I'm struggling to find a replacement. It's a Pipercross item. However nothing on thier site seems to match the size of this one. Anyone have any...

Cam Belt Kit, Keyed Bottom Pulley, 197 cams, 7 degree timing, aux belt, oil + filter, coolant, 182 Manifold, sports CAT and an MOT (no advisories) for good measure. Phil at the Grange Service Station Cardiff put in a great shift. I was expecting it to be super hard to drive it...

Not sure if I've mentioned Tasty Classics before and can't see it mentioned (recently at least) Noticed the amount of total views are dropping, not sure if that's because his thumbnails have changed quite a bit, for the worse.

Hell of a milestone. Got any early pictures of it? Don't imagine it's changed much...

Chonky. As you say, silver would have been good, but I'm a sucker for silver wheels. How's you rate the tyres?

Plenty more in my build thread. That's the Matterhorn in the distance. My gripes, exhaust was too droney and the I had a dead arse from the seat. Both of these things are my fault and not the Clio's.

Good updates. What's the tread like on the NS2r's if you still have them? Also, your left washer jet cover is keeping me awake at night. 😅

All this 172 Cup talk. Be rude of me not to drop mine in. Photos from a recent trip to Switzerland from South Wales. Loved every minute.

Been gathering parts the last month or so. 197 Cams Cambelt kit Camshaft nut and seal kit Camshaft seals for gearbox end Keyed Crankshaft pulley Exhaust manifold gasket Brembo HC Discs DS2500 pads 7 degree timing tool 182 heat wrapped manifold 2118 speedlines from @colesy. These aren't to...

Front anti roll bar brackets.

Applaud you on all the work, but please PLEASE fix that washer jet cover. Driving me crazy! 😅 Orange has aged really well.

Always thought silver 2118's were 🤌 Great update as always.

I need pictures brother.

Where the manifold joins the cat/decat?

Seems like a good idea.

Other than the eye watering cost, I'd need to chop one end to make a vband. 😢

Gathering some parts to get the most out of the RS2 inlet. First part, a 182 exhaust manifold which I've bought from @Louis it has a V band flange welded on the end, which I think will make it easier. My question is "how do I get this to connect up to a 172 exhaust?" My current exhaust is a...

Bit of an update. Pre vapour blasting. And done... Then I spent a few hours yesterday plumbing it all in. There are no fitting guides out there, that I could find anyway, and although pretty straight forward the vac line to brake booster had me stumped for a little bit. Also, the...

Thank you mate. It's so hard to explain the awe of the place, pictures don't do it justice and nor do my words. Planning for next year already.

Put in some time this weekend on the JMS Inlet. The manifold looked like it was painted with a brush, so I started to strip it. Under the thick black was thick red. FML. It beat me and I've dropped it for vapor blasting. The aluminium which was anodised blue, which isn't the worst colour...

Great reply. Thanks @Brigsy It came with these injectors: Which I think are Megane 225 injectors. Maybe the way forward is 182 Manifold, 197 cams and injectors then.

Belts are due soon anyway, so this is an option. 100% I'm not making it a track car or going for peak power, just want a good all rounder.

Great question. Open to opinion and thoughts here tbh? 182 Manifold? I'm not keen on opening the engine up to fit cams unless I need to.

Slight change of plans.

Day 5. The long road home. Driving through some really old French villages that reminded me of Band of Brothers headed toward LeShuttle. We stopped off at Reims for photos and lunch. Back at LeShuttle we managed to get an earlier return journey which I was thankful for as I still had a...

You had the mintex on the front, is that correct?

Day 4 - We fueled up headed out of Sedrun for the last time, through Andermatt and south towards the San Gotthard Pass. We stopped for breakfast and coffee surrounded by incredible views. Next was west through the Nufenen Pass which was my favourite. Pictures completed at the top, then...

Day 3 We headed southeast then on to the San Bernardino Pass. We all agreed that this wasn't the best pass for one reason or another. We then continued further south to the Italian border and back north through the Panoramico Sosto. This was popular with the locals. We chilled here for a...
