Gave my cup a bath ..

'Mazin!

Are you going to upgrade the engine mounts? I would of thought the standard ones will have too much flex for 300bhp, let alone 400bhp.

 

[Jekyll]

A snappy retrimmed Renault Sport Sabelt wheel would look spot on in there.....

 

[Dooby]

Not a massive fan of the sabelt wheel, they all seem to look worn/dirty after a short period of time.

It's has vibratechnics mounts fitted mate

 

[Jekyll]

Yes, my fault. I thought i saw standard ones

 

[Dooby]

Yes, my fault. I thought i saw standard ones :blush:

:wink:

 

[scooby-93]

Probably going for a Owen developments GTX2867r .. Will still spool quick and good for up to 480bhp, so plenty of head room

Be good to see how this goes will look forward to updates

You know what. That's easily my favourite clio on here by a margin. So tastefully done and it has enough power to demolish most cars out on the roads. Absolutely love that.

If you were to sell it tomorrow how much would you be asking? It looks in excellent nick (this is a completely hypothetical question, but I'm just intrigued as to what it would be valued at)

 

[Mr R.]

If I was ever to build a Cup with boost this is exactly what it would look like.

Apart from I'd fit coilovers. [emoji2]

Thanks, that is some praise as there is a lot of excellent cars on this forum.
Not sure how you would put a price on it but i'm around the 11k mark (including buying the car) and still going .. :hushed:

 

[Crybert]

Damn. Although it is definitely a one off and it looks to be maintained to an excellent standard. A real credit to you, well done

 

[ADS_V6]

Stunning car hats off to you mate,cups are the best when cleaned beast of a motor

 

[Dooby]

Thanks lads ...

 

[ADS_V6]

My only dislike is the logo on the steering wheel,but you cleaned her up very well a good wax does make a difference to the paint bling bling

 

[Dooby]

That and the fact it had a full re spray bar the roof around 2 months ago :wink:

 

[ADS_V6]

hi didnt see the respray bit how much was the respray dont mind me asking,bet you crush most things on the road in that lol

 

[Dooby]

Brother in law is a painter .. Was around £900 ish and yes it doesn't hang about. Used to have s**t Toyo T1rs and I've seen wheel spin in 4th with them.

 

[ADS_V6]

bargain paint looks as new, JEALOUS

 

[Dooby]

So after an albatross decided to unload on the car I gave it a quick jet wash and dry.
Roof is still the original paint .. light was fading, but it was looking good.

 

[Mr Plums]

Too much contrast, looks Monaco.

 

[Dooby]

It was gone 9 o clock Tom so almost dark and taken on a phone.

 

[Mr Plums]

Looks brilliant mate, just trying to find a fault lol.

 

[Craig]

Looks awesome mate. Like said one of the best cars on here. A credit to you mate

 

[Dooby]

That is truly perfect !! would not change a thing !! Sleepers got to love em :up:

Pm me I have a few le

How long did the build take and who did it ?

Seal arrived and fitted .. Thanks mate

 

[ADS_V6]

missed a bit, that is jaw dropping pics

 

[Matthew]

Not tempted to lower on some springs or something? Looks beautiful, if not a tad 'high'.

It's on eibach pros ..

 

[Matthew]

Iirc the Pros are slightly higher than the standard cup springs. Not fancy some cooksports? A small drop would finish it right off IMo.

 

[Dooby]

Pro's lower it 15mm over standard, I like the ride on them, I've done the car dropped on its arse thing over the years. For me this is the best of both worlds in terms of looks and comfort.

Love it ! Thanks for your help the other night with the turbo/clutch info.
The blue trendlines look brand new, did you buy them new? Also can you recommend any seat covers if you have any. Also what products do you use for the leather parts.

Noticed on your brembos you have special pins with retaining clips , are they available anywhere.

What audio set up do you have, noticed the nice tweeters. Have you thought about an Alpine SWE 1200 under seat sub as they fit perfectly and stay completely hidden.

Really like the KrystalKleen Blizzard snow foam too.

I have a Alpine F1 7990 head unit with a DLS A5 running RE Audio XXX components and a jl 8w7.
The treadlines are in Excellent condition. I use Autobrite FAB on them.
The bars and pins come with the brackets, there far better than the standard ones

 

[Gus]

@Dooby Last question...
what engine mounts to you have and do you get vibrations through the car?

 

[Dooby]

Vibratechnics .. yes you get vibration but nothing major, a must though on a boosted car so definitely get them mate.

 

[Gus]

Thanks mate !

 

[Leeshez]

Amazing ,

 

[maxest]

Really like that..
