DannyR's 10th Ph1 Clio Thread... Everyone always comes back... Again...and Again!

DannyR's 10th Ph1 Clio Thread... Everyone always comes back!

So, having been without a Clio for 18 months (the longest time in 11 years) due to buying a house it's now time I came back.

For those of you that don't know me I will share my past most prominent 172s.

My first one I had for 2 years, was supercharged running about 240bhp, and then caught fire.

I then went between cars always coming back to Clios, in which time I owner RSTuning old demo Clio which ran around 330bhp using a supercharger.

Again afterwards, in and out of Clios until a friend bought one and we did a track day in it, I made him an offer as it was an epic car, I then supercharged this on the drive over a couple of weekends. It ran 250bhp and was taken to the Nurburgring two weeks after finishing supercharging the car, a little risky but all was ok.

I was caught for speeding in the above and saving for a house at the same time so wasn't great, so I then bought a Ph2 [emoji30][emoji30]to run around in. Also going to the Nurburgring.

So now, we've been in the house 18 months and I can finally afford a Ph1. Originally I was going to be buying back the Ph2 above but a Ph1 came up at such a better deal with a lot better spec.

The spec as follows;

Kw V1 coilovers
H&R spacers 25mm front/5mm rear
Ds2500 pads all round
Brembo HC discs
Vibra technics engine mounts
Silicone coolant hoses
KTR induction kit
Wrapped 172 exhaust manifold
Full decat Oreca gr n (very rare)
ARP rod bolts
Fastchip remap
PM solid top mounts with strut brace
PM air con delete with lightweight pulleys
CNC matched to head lower inlet
Cup spoiler
Prima racing exhaust mount
Braided brake lines
Poly bushed lower arms

Dyno'd after cambelt at 182bhp on AtSpeed rollers.

It's also had Cambelt, dephaser, brakes, clutch etc... All done recently, car has been very well looked after by @ben_r1 before the previous owner. I also think the last four owners are on here from a quick search in order @Jackwoody, @ben_r1, @malcolmgt and @BBC-Jan, so it's obviously a fairly well known car.

Pictures from the for sale advert

Plans so far are;

Oreca exhaust sold and swapped for a resonated Yozza which arrived today, unsure if it fits my decat, otherwise I'll need a Ph1 cat to swap with, also if it's still too loud.

I have some colour coded side strips too from @Mckgherkin waiting to go on.

So should have a busy weekend, well a couple of hours.

Plans are to keep it a mix of KUJ and CAE, comfy but good for trackdays. Will fit a Ph2 dash too.

Looks tidy. Liked it when Ben had it. I'd say it's now in good hands but.....

I've got those clear side repeaters for you. Front bumper looks like it fits well too. You keeping it on the F1's?

Nice Dan :) looking forward to some trackdays with you :) I'm hoping for April 29th at Snet for a taster before a full day. I thought you were buying your ph2 back! Nice spec as well that :)

That looks like a nice clean example!

When is it getting charged? ;)
It will be charged by now lol

How many times have I heard about super chargers this week [emoji6][emoji6]

You forgot to thank me for showing you this beauty!

Still a shed x

Thank you for costing me money, lots and lots of money [emoji6] x

It's not, it's really not. Undecided on a route to take as this looked mean as.

But then Scott's mint one looks so good, unsure if I have the patience though?! I need two, well actually three would be ideal, four would be perfect.

Nice Dan :) looking forward to some trackdays with you :) I'm hoping for April 29th at Snet for a taster before a full day. I thought you were buying your ph2 back! Nice spec as well that :)

I'm hoping to do that evening too if I can get the car in shape, also works perfectly for pay day. I was going to buy the Ph2 back but Dan M forced me into this after showing me, I read the spec and was a no brainer.

Ye likewise for that evening tbh, need to do a few bits to mine as well but that's what I'm aiming for!

Yes he does need one!

Car feels good after having a play and getting camber correct. It also made the tracking correct. I need to get the coilovers off and cleaned ideally.

Properly good car and ruddy cheap.

Very cheap, few niggly problems but it'll be ok.

How's the interior coming? I'm ready when you are to collect!

You'd never be happy with a ph2 though Danny.

@Greeny. ill keep my eyes peeled, I like bargain hunting for s**t cars

You guys coming to the meet on the 28th at bury? @DannyR bring the tripod!

I wouldn't ever be happy with a ph2 you're right.

Used tripod today, I'll bring it!

Wow you like supercharging! You must be handy at the conversion now

I know a little bit [emoji6]

Started to get dark but car looks so much better clean and with a few changes.

I have some better photos, I'll upload later on

It does, that's why I need to get the suspension off and clean it up so can fully adjust. The rear looks low in that photo but I think I need different springs to bring rear down or taking out the adjusters will give me 5mm.

Ph2 stuff does make it look cleaner. My clear side repeaters are in my car, all ready for you. I've washed one out the best I can as it had a bit of mould in. Not 100% gone but better than it was.

  A special one.
Looking good bud, as said needs lowering more on the front. :smile:

Side strips make all the difference, although I think too much silver now? I'm tempted by anthracite mirrors and bullets with silver writing?

Thank you, how much do I owe you?

Charged yet?








;)

FUUU!!!

Edited the shitty photo, it sits fairly even. Hopefully next weekend I'll have all the coilovers apart, cleaned up and lowered properly.

Photos didn't come out great, so this is the best of a bad bunch, quality has been sucked from them too!

Yozza is slightly quieter but drones like f**k at 80 and the Oreca didn't.

I will be buying a cat!
