Brake Ducts Fitted-Ready for Oulton!!!!!

[PYE21]

I have spent today fitting some brake ducts into the holes on left by the now removed foglights.

Start of the day

Front bumper off, ready to remove fogs.

Bumper off, fogs out.

Thought i would remove the AV while i was there (prep for the next mod).

Lunch

Slagtastic matey!!

Cutting inner arches for ducting.

Ducts are a bit larger than i expected, but i kind of like them like this.

Bumper back on.

Ducts cut, routed and zip-tied in place (clearance checked at full lock!!!!)

All done, along with wheels off cleaned inside and front to backed etc.

 

[DrR]

Oh thats looks good!

 

[Jay]

sweet.

 

[Martin]

Nice chief

 

[Herdie172]

Looking good mate!Will it make at lot of difference tho?

 

[Paul J]

Good effort, i hate my fog lights.

Could they be trimmed to sit in flush and less obvious?

 

[fUbAr]

i would have got some proper cup racer style intakes from YozSport... those look a little out of place.

but function over form, im sure they'll do the trick! :approve:

 

[PYE21]

Herdie- They will hopefully, had big problems with overheating,bothat Oulton last year and on both my 'ring trips.

Paul J- I could cut these down so that they sit flush (what i was aiming for) but i like them like this. But you can get ones with a smaller diameter ducting, mine is 89mm id, there are others and also different colour options on the inlet as well.

 

[PYE21]

Proper ones are £180, these are £75. You choose!!!!!

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Very smart & great work mate.

 

[Iain C]

nice shed.
I like the fogs tho.

 

[MarkM]

good effort

I am sure they will make a difference on track otherwise they wouldnt have bothered with them on the cup racers

 

[PYE21]

^^ I will let you know after Oulton on Saturday!

 

[Leeshez]

Truly stunning.

 

[ollie]

ohhhh i like!!

wud like to get this done

 

[Peperami]

Looks good mate

Wont these fail mot though?

 

[Clart]

those black ends are too big. good idea though

 

[Christopher]

not too sure on the inlets tbh, i would've forked out the extra for the YS items

fair play though matey, let us know if they make a difference as it's something i'm looking at for the summer.

 

[Englebert]

Prefer the foggies in to be honest, or the offical Cup racer ducts.

They'll make sod all difference too, although you will introduce lift at high speeds!

 

[fUbAr]

Proper ones are £180, these are £75. You choose!!!!!

£180 ones for me please

 

[Ali]

yep, need the viper sized trumpets. But apart from that looks good.

 

[PYE21]

They'll make sod all difference too, although you will introduce lift at high speeds!

Is that why every race/rally/track car worth there weight has them? If you are woried about high speed lift on a Clio then im afraid you know nothing about aerodynamics!!!!! And are highly optimistic of your cars capabilities!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ed_182]

I like it

 

[JD]

im not sure whether they are too obvious for me, i dont mind having the CAF cut into the lower grill, but im not sure about those. sure they will do alot of good though, have you tried the hair dryer trick? )ie put the hair dryer by the cold air feed and feel how much air comes through at the other end)

jamie

 

[PYE21]

Was going to try them out, but i dont own a hair dryer and the acid test will be Oulton on Saturday.

 

[Giles]

nice

 

[Dash]

Build some fans into them.

 

[stew_punk]

dunno if brake ducts will be needed for oulton on sat.

a better mod would be a snow plough attachment!
