^^^yes Chris. Apart from a leaking rocker cover.it's due a cambelt change in the spring, so I'll get that sorted and fit some 'aggressive' cams at the same time. :)

Was thinking about getting some but waiting to do a stud and nut conversion. And my wheels are quite deep so not really going to see them

Just read through your progress, took me a couple of hours mind. Liking the track **** look of it..


Can I ask what size bolts you used to fit your subframe down, as av got a pair of Corbeau Revolutions to fit aswell.

Here's a picture of them. The shorter ones were for fixing the sidemounts to the subframe.

I think they are about 50mm grade 12.9 high tensile bolts.

Cheers lads for that but if you could find out the ones for fixing down the subframe to the car it would be much appreciated?. Av already got the sidemounts mounted. Also where did you get them from?

As I posted above mate, purchased from Merlin Accessories Ltd.

You need grade 12.9 high tensile bolts for all fixings.

Subframe to car: 50mm
Sidemount to Subframe: 20mm

I gave the Clio a quick clean today. It turned out to be a bloody nightmare, as the DS3000 brake pad dust had stained the bodywork, and the once white 2118s are still a mess after a load of iron x and scrubbing with a scouring pad :dapprove:

Anthracite 2118s + R888s will be going back on the Fletchbus again soon, with a set new set of DS2500 pads.

Pics to follow tomorrow.

That doesn't sound good but white wheels for winter was never the best idea :(

yea mine were f****d after I used them over the winter, The dust embedded in to the paint and never came out.

You never were going to keep them clean.

I have now got one of the front ones looking good again, lots of wonder wheels and iron x :)

He's never going to be able to take them off now either ;)

I'm only going to buy Snap On tools from now on! ;)
