then whalst it was sitting there iv put yellow fogs and the mrs old bembro max discs on to aid the stopping which work really well but got no pics of them its been cleaned properly and has come out realy well it just needs some body work on it such as the whole front end painting and the rear bumper which will get done shortly and the headlights dematted

Looks good! But there is no such thing as a 172 FF

...and you might want to use some punctuation marks.

Otherwise - clean car, practically identical to mine (iceberg 172).

Get a smaller plate for the front.

Re: my first clio P2 iceberg 172 ff

funny that cant get a FF 172 thought the options where cup or non cup meaning full fat as they have all the extra weight???

 

[Joe#]

Re: my first clio P2 iceberg 172 ff

Nope, it's either cup or normal.

182's can be FF

Carl don't worry about the anal brigade.

Looks nice and tidy.

 

[cliosport-carl]

ah well thanks jamie and it only looks tidy it needs abit of work doing to it but when it gets done will look fresh and as far as plans go first off focus on handaling coil overs whiteline ARB and camber maby struts if i get them cheep and solid top mounts and polly bushed bits the omteriour will get stripped and my forza sport buckets put in then engine will have poss a p1 airbox with j&r filter and decat with the miltek matched inlets and a remap from good old TDF

No full fat means extra options ie cup packs on the 182

 

[cliosport-carl]

[cliosport-carl]

[cliosport-carl]

[cliosport-carl]

then got some new springs for her the lovable apex which i like

and a p1 airbox which in the pic had no filter in was just doing a test run but now has a pipercross one in

 

[cliosport-carl]

and lastly nothing to mine but coilovers on the mrs and on its own doesnt look that low but next to mine and mine had a good old clean

 

[cliosport-carl]

just orderd my plate for the front and whiteline for the back

 

[cliosport-carl]

new number plate and a quick clean also now got my decat on but no pics for that

 

[cliosport-carl]

so its been a while ill try and put pics in order but i got a lot of bits

few from the clean for trax

 

[cliosport-carl]

and at trax

then took my seat out to test fit my bucket but kinda just left it for a bit was fun

then iv had alot of problems with the ht leads but pic of them

then broke my rear shock so brought some coilovers which are causing problems now but im fixing this

 

[cliosport-carl]

like ripping my splitter off several times lol little fix to stop the knocking until i sort my needs

as i said few problems like arb on the chassis

 

[cliosport-carl]

sorry subframe not chassis

 

[chillbill]

Nice. How did the ARB affect the handling?

 

[cliosport-carl]

the rear ?? made the back end much stiffer and felt more stable i recommend it

 

[mikef1982]

are those just standard headlights?

 

[cliosport-carl]

btw yeah just oem headlights iv had a few problems lately i broke my drive shaft a little bit

then managed to get a matched and ported inlet

then went to a mate unit to fit the dog-bone mount and quick service and

ripped the mid box off going up the ramp

but after a little while

dog bone fitted and

welded straight through in place sounds good now just need to sort mount out

 

[matzki]

Saw this motor at Stanceworks this year! Looked nice, took this snap!

 

[cliosport-carl]

nice one thanks not much update as iv not been spending all that much as i was getting ready for my track sitting when i got there i put the mrs old super ts on as they had a bit of tread not realizing i had none so had to leave them on for a bit until i got some new maxississsssses then got some longer wheel bolts which meant some spacer action doesn't look much but 10mm is good enough for me well for now any who also more pics to come as im about to go pick up my oz f1s tomorrow
