1.4 Billabong...

[Vicky.]

Hey! Just thought I'd post a few photos of my Clio...

Current Specs:

-EBC discs and pads
-Lowered and stiffened suspension (10mm)
-OMP strutbraces (front and rear)
-KTR 182 style exhaust
-KTR remap
-KTR uprated engine mounts
-Baileys alloy header tank (not in pics)
-Speedline turinis with Toyos
-Pipercross induction kit

Probably more but can't remember at the moment lol.

It's currently in the workshop having some side skirts painted and fitted so looking forward to seeing those on when I pick it up on Thursday (just in time for the Lakeside meet!).

In the pipelines are a new set of Hi-Spec brakes, Carbon fibre front splitter, manifold etc.. Anyway here are the photos! Will put some more up after I get it back on Thursday.

Noice. . .

Get some pics of you up also . . .

 

[Paul.M]

looks nice does that !
not too sure on the battery cover though

 

[Dm_26]

Car is screaming to be colour coded i think. Would also look better with a 1*2 rear bumper with that exhaust.

Have you had to cut out the Spare Wheel well for the exhaust?

Also get some turini renault centre caps, £3.54 each from renault iirc Part Number 6000073620

 

[Sam]

Ye..
very nice car. i like it alot!!

You need to post pics of yourself though.

 

[Sam]

You can buy them off the KTR site where they can be fitted without a spare wheel!

That doesn't look half bad or chavvy tbh! Well done, quite individual if I say so myself!

You're gonna get mullered with love for the Turinis!

No the spare wheel is sitting happily where its always been :approve:

 

[YorkshireDaz]

yeah just a shame they made it so the distance between the pipes didnt match the distance between the cut outs of a 182 bumper


car looks tidy mate

 

[ben_r1]

Did you forget to mention who previously owned the car and fitted most those mods :rasp:...

:O

Didnt know this mate.
Bit silly of them!

 

[GarethM]

like it apart from the 182 rear

 

[ben_r1]

If you get the car next to a 182 the tailpipes are substancially larger than OE 182 tailpipes, so probaly wouldnt fit in the cut outs anyway.

Ktec did a great job adapting that bumper though, very neat and tidy up close

Bens bird? IE the one at southend, meaning this is his old one?

Yeah sold it on for a very reasonable price lol

 

[Gstar2006]

Looks nice but not sure why you'd be wanting to bother putting hi-spec 4 pots on a 1.4 though. Braking overkill surely?

Depends on what kind of use the car gets. If it gets seriously flogged then why not?

For doing stoppies i think she said

 

[kyle_sxi]

looks very nice

 

[dutty_112]

tidy!

 

[Vicky.]

Grr Ben, get your own thread lol!

 

[cat171]

Colour code it up, esp the boot spoiler

I'm not 100% sure on the exhausts, less is more & all that

Bens bird? IE the one at southend, meaning this is his old one?

I thought i'd seen this car, yeah basildon before sarfend (need to get another sarfend sorted tbh)

- check out the sharks too lol !!!

 

[ThePea]

I've got a 1.2 the same colour as this, completely unmodified apart from RS grill and silvervisions. I've thought about colour coding mine but from what I've seen from photoshops and other people's, it can look a bit meh. IMO The black strips almost complement the colour and provide a nice contrast.

This is one that someone else did:

 

[stewart]

Looks similar to one that goes about my area

 

[JON13S]

i think the black can sometimes help to break up the colour of a car. looks tidy as it is...

 

[Tigger]

Looks tidy, and very clean too

Welcome to ClioSport too Vicky

 

[alex-avfc]

I like that

 

[Amy]

Colour code it up, esp the boot spoiler

Should be one of the first bits! Just looks horrible on a modded car still black.

 

[Jordi17]

looks s**t colour coded, leave as it is imo

 

[Vicky.]

I've photoshop'd it before and to be honest it looks much better black, the colour coding is a little too much with that colour and the black as someone else said breaks it up a bit.

Thanks for everyones opinions though

 

[Brett]

Realy realy nice car that, very tasteful modifications.

How effective is the remap on the 1.4 16V?

It makes a difference but obviously being a 1.4 its not majorly substantial, so not as much as you'd like but it definitely improved the throttle response.

 

[YA55ER]

love the colour of it!

 

[jesus]

I like!

 

[scott1205]

very nice car mate

i think a cup spoiler will look good on that

 

[Keano]

looks like its been done to a very high standard.

i like

Cheers

black sounds good, i did my grey trims in black to break it up as i thought all green would be abit boring
