m4rk7's clio Mk3 1.6 Dynamique S

[M4rk7]

Not updated my project thread for a while, mainly because nothing much has been happening with the car other than the steering column setting itself on fire on the way to work one morning :-( lol. Decided to remove the wind deflectors as I feel they make the a-pillars feel twice as big, especially on the dark nights when there is no light shining through them. Also installed a k&n 57i kit a couple of nights ago, mainly because I'm getting a bit bored with the car just now and thought the sound would amuse me for a while :-D I must admit it sounds a lot louder than i expected. Very deep tone and raspy if that makes any sense haha. I haven't noticed any power gains or losses, just a lot louder when you get on it. Installing was really simple, but removing the battery casing and unclipping the fuse box was a giant pain in the butt :-D lol

a few pics of the pod filter and car with the deflectors removed...

Hello! Been thinking about selling up, possibly posting an advert on here. Just wondering what people think the car would be worth. 49k on the clock now.

 

[M4rk7]

So decided to keep the car for another while, got a few small updates coming up soon.
Bought a brand new renaultsport steering wheel as the original wheel has melted really badly now and its itching my ocd like crazy

Also got a new headunit and speakers which ive been tempted to do for a while now, heard mixed reviews so far about the speakers though but they must at least be a little better than the standard ones surely

Heres a few pics of the stuff ive bought, should be all in place in a few days..

Alpine cde-183bt amd Pioneer TS-Q131C

new steering wheel ( also got hold of cruise control airbag from ebay)

curious if anyone has either this headunit or speakers and what their thoughts are on them

So got the new wheel fitted now, looks great! And feels a little thicker than the dynamique s steering wheel, really lifts the interior hopefully getting the headunit and speakers done on sunday too.

What do u guys think of it?

Finally had a dry day here in glasgow so gave the car a good clean inside and out and all polished up! also got the new head unit and speakers installed, fitted rear speakers too.
Really pleased with the sound, very clear with much improved bass. Its also great having spotify in the car via the bluetooth audio. The red lighting fits in not too bad also.

I really should stop buying crap for this car lol.

Hi I know this is quite an old thread but I've recently been looking at getting myself a 1.6 vvt dynamique s and starting a project on it, I was wondering if you can put a rs cup spoiler on it, seen the renaultsports with them on and they look really nice in my opinion, any help would be great!!

Was thinking of buying myself one of these in black and doing simular stuff to what you've done to yours!! Yours looks really good pal!

So after having quite a few costly electrical issues with the car recently I decided it was time to sell up! :-( was a little sad still to see it go today, but delighted with the new car and got it for a great price too! Expecting to get slagged for this one ;-) but I love it, big upgrade for me I have to say. Cost £12k with delivery milage pre-registered. Here it is lol :-D

sorry this reply is so late, yip you can, not sure if it would look right tho on a non-sport, probably better with the sprint spoiler or sx spoiler.
