So they built a box for you and didn't put a diff in it!!! That's a piss take. How have they managed that.

Not atm no, but they took took the innards of the diff out whilst I was there and there was no plates etc just the planet gears or whatever they are are called. I only thought it hadn't been set up fully as he told be it had only been set to 10% locking.
On a fwd car, they recommend a oil for the box not the diff. I had been using redline mt90 which is the good stuff anyways.

I had an email reply back yesterday with it saying sorry, what is your bank account number/ sort code, replied with that and got a reply saying it'll be paid Monday.

If it doesn't go through, there is still claim going through the small claims court for him to deal with.

Just came back from onshore from a short visit to a different platform over the weekend to find my AST 5100 coilovers have been delivered. However the adjustable top mounts are missing from my box 
have called them, and Stephanie will call back tomorrow as she isn't in today.
Also my rear axle bearing Conversion kit from Pure-Motorsport was delivered
On other news, I have been told my money for the missing LSD will be paid today but could take 24hrs to show up.
We shall see what happens. If it doesn't, the claim form from the small claims court will be arriving soon anyway.

Update on LSD money - got it back! So with my refund from gripper as I had paid for it to be overhauled originally and now with the money back I can order a gripper diff and 14/60 cw&p from Mark aka northloopcup :smile:
Haha, you'll be a very lucky guy if you do :tongueout:
Cheers bud, I have 100nm front and 110nm rears by looks of it
Also spoke to Steph from AST, will try and get the adjustable top mounts out ASAP.

@JKING3008 I'll be interested on your thoughts on the gearing with the 14/60 CWP as thats what i was going to go for or keep the standard.

Thanks for letting me know. Still be good to see what you think as I feel the 5.25 that a lot go for is too short, hence I was going to opt for the 4.28 as it's a lot closer to the standard gearings 4.09

Not yet bud but it's not road legal any ways lol have tried bouncing the car and it is stiff :tongueout: looking forward to trying the new diff and higher ratio gears!
Forgot to mention have changed the discs and pads on front from standard discs and RC8 pads to Brembo HC discs and Ferodo DS1.11.
Few more photos

Yep they are far too aggressive for the light clio's. I was actually slower around Oulton compared to OE pads they were that bad with locking up.
Mine has just snapped its aux belt taking the cambelt with it on the way to getting a full belt change, unlucky or what!
Clio 172
That’s not good at all! I had them lock up on me going down Bentley straight completely knackering both front tyres!
Clio is booked into Spires outside Birmingham for alignment and corner weighting

@George@RTR_Parts supplied my DS1.11 pads & Brembo HC discs, spot on service as usual!

Shame about selling up, was progressing well an would have been great with the diff etc fitted.
Saying that if you break it, let me know as I would be interested in the gripper
