No, it is still 0...+5 Celsius. I have a track day this Saturday and still do not know what tyres to use Yesterday I bought new disks with Pilot Exalto PE2 - additionally to a set of Dunlop dry sliks, Yoko A048 semi-sliks and Yoko AD08 fast road! And will take some winter tyres with me as well

It takes too long and now they are ready:

Wow! First time I have seen this project. Lovely components used throughout your build.

Those wishbones look a bit special too- although better photos are needed to do them justice

They are now in powder coating (to glance black), so I will make more photos after I will get them back and assemble with the ball joint and bearings!!!

Unfortunately my English is not so good to make full description of all what I am doing with my Clio...

[geoffreydemoor]

Just quick note - the white Clio and and 500+ bhp engine photos are not from my car, but from the car of my friend. I just build my small Black Clio n the same garage

 

[ayk2008]

And my own is now prepared for welding the roll cage:

Your friend should be opening a threat for his car aswell.
Like you´ve done in your so far.

Cheers Kamalao

He just order and buy this car. He is the European Champion 2010 (and vice champion 2007-2009) in Auto Cross. So I do not think that he will want to write too much....

Engine: Custom by Sodemo Moteurs (they also make Formula Renault engines)
Full 4x4 Transmission: Custom by Sadev
Suspention: Custom by Ohlins
ECU and Electric: Custom made by Bosh
Shell: from Clio Super1600
etc...

Do not think that it is too interesting here, because it costs a lot of money....

Excellent pictures! I never knew that RS Clios would be even considered in Russia, let alone a type of car that actively gets driven in racing!
