My First Clio

[Whiskerz16v]

Doesn't fit under bonnet like that annoyingly...

Putting back to standard filter later on today....

AnyOne know where to get an updated filter for this engine?
I can't find one for this engine, only the mk1 1.4 8v

Or is it the same filter used?

 

[Whiskerz16v]

Standard filter back on...

And another pix for whorage

I will get better photos once it's been cleaned and a few more bits finished off

 

[Stu.]

looks much better with strips. just needs spoiler done and emmm LOWERD

 

[Whiskerz16v]

spoiler will be getting done soon ( got a spare lying about i could chuck on while i paint mine? ) a bonnet badge is getting cc'd treatment too

might get a set of door handles and do them too

still need to fit my standard splitter LOL... and still saving away for a set of 60/40 FK springs

 

[todd100]

might be one less in the 1.4s crew, mines at the garage today with oil leak, petrol leak, knocking from the steering, exhaust rattling like f**k, so may be bye bye clio haha

yours is looking better with the colour coding, you need ph2 bump strips and a cup spoiler, oh and lower it

 

[Whiskerz16v]

phase 2 bump strips are GAY!

cup spoiler costs too much.... and lowering is coming once my spares sell so i have £65 in my paypal to order the springs

i prefer ph2 strips nd ph2 rear bumper tbh looks more modern

and will look better lowered

what colour you doing the wheels?

 

[Whiskerz16v]

Swaying towards anthracite just now but still no decided lol...

Might just go gloss black as it's cheapest option lol

 

[Ben]

Side strips look awesome dude.

 

[Whiskerz16v]

The were rushed so need redone but summer will be before that happens

 

[Whiskerz16v]

tried something a bit different with the spoiler....

stuck some washers underneath it between the boot and spoiler so it sits at more of an angle... will get pics once im home from London and its light enough to take pics

 

[Whiskerz16v]

now upto £47 saved on paypal so getting close to spring money now

any recommendation on springs to buy? im kinda split between getting the FK ones 60/40 drop for £65 new and saving for a bit longer and buying a set of sportlines second hand

 

[Stu.]

buy coilies second hand for £100 you know it makes sence!

 

[Whiskerz16v]

hmm new rokkors would cost me about £160 as CS memebers get 10% discount.... if ive got 58mm hubs im considering saving for a set of them new....

if its 52mm hubs second hand coileys if i can find some cheap if not its 60mm springs im after

 

[Whiskerz16v]

got £55 saved via paypal now with another few provisional sales of £12 and £20 so if they go thru i shall have more than enough for the FK springs....
how much would uprated/shortened shocks for the front cost?

 

[Whiskerz16v]

Now have £70 in paypal...

Tonights new pictures

Oh hey new additions

Both need lacquer re done ran out tonight
Also got cc'd fog surrounds and a boot surround that need lacquer then they will be on too

Once I've measured my bolt spacing I will decide whether it's springs or Coileys

 

[Craig.M]

your better off getting coilovers bud.
where abouts did u take those pics?

 

[Christopher]

...and a better camera. lol

 

[Whiskerz16v]

Depends on bolt spacing as only really looking to spend Upto £100

All pics are with my iPhone lol.... I don't have a camera

Once it's lowered will try get stu to take pics for me

Pics are taken just along from rosyth dockyard
