Good man! I was going to say clutch, but I saw it's already on the list (it makes so much sense to get it done while the cars like this)

A vee owner who's a master tech in renault Cardiff is doing it ,came highly recommended off the forum also suggested starter motor ,but that was done last year.Agree bonkers as clutch is cheap and false economy really

[imprezaworks]

If nothing else the car will be minty mint fresh. A good buy for someone in the distant future

Ah nice one!! Yeah not bad mate, just had the a/c condenser changed as the gas had escaped a couple of times. I need a couple of handbrake cables for it as they were getting stuck (it's currently away with a specialist) God knows about those! I don't think anyone's ever replaced them before

 

[RMDavis]

Car looking awesome as ever Alex!

How you finding the seats? Still happy with them I hope?

No mate, he's a bit too far from me, ren o tec in Essex have it mate. I did that once, lol yeah toasty!!

Yeah I know what you mean bud, I often said the standard 1*2 seats provide more support.

As for the seating height those sub frames are fairly low! You could always try and source a set of standard sub frames? That would raise your seating position a fair bit.

I noticed on another post you was considering a lightened flywheel... if so you would need a phase one clutch. (Not sure which clutch you've purchased or if you still plan on the flywheel.

Thanks Dan,I've scrapped that idea due too cost.Going too get front bumper done instead and might invest in a splitter too protect it from damage hopefully.

A splitter from Russo? If so they are good quality and require no drilling to fit. I can vouch for the quality of his.
I fitted the flywheel during my Cambelt and it is noticeably different, don't blame you for spending elsewhere tho.

Thanks yeh do you think they suit?.Im paranoid about getting it painted then touching a kerb 😂

 

[LeeRS]

Looking good.
I take it they will warrant the parts as you have sourced them elswhere?
Have you had this mapped yet?

 

[V6Dan]

Yeah I think they look good on the car. Would you choose to match the colour to your car or leave it black?
The way he designed it it doesn't actually lower front of the car hardly anything but it will take any potential scrapes.

Excuse the mess only picture I could find!

I'm not 100% sure mate. Good to hear you got one sorted.

Gone for a matt finish as thought better with the grilles as more oem.Is it easy too fit?

 

[V6Dan]

It's literally unscrew the screws that hold the undertray to the bumper, then hold the splitter in place and put the screws back in. From memory there's about a dozen

 

[ADS_V6]

Gave the vee a few coats of blackfire over the past 3 days and another coat of wax just now and waxed the wheels oops excuse upside down photos
