My RS2'ed Wilwood 2118 Cup :)

[Jekyll]

Let me get this right: People are moaning he's taking a very nice car apart and putting all the bit's on a car which is a better colour and in mint condition? I fail to see a downside to this lol.

i know tom quite well and ive seen both cars. the rb is in mint condition and in my eyes the best colour on the 182s. for the price paid for ollies car with all the parts, it seemed a no brainer to buy and swap onto the rb then sell and close enough standard cup.

the rb should be pretty epic when complete

 

[Silent_Scone]

Worst I've got a perfectly good cup and I'm going to rape it and butcher it to add parts to my own pride and joy thread ever.


Both cars are mint btw

 

[Bobby.]

Have you got any updates on this tom, what has been swapped so far?

 

[Scutch]

Credit to you for doing something you want to do and not following what others want you to do.

It's your f*cking car and money, do as you please with it.

Nice motors and good luck with the project.

Love that Cup!!!

 

[oliver.james]

Looking good, Tom!

Tom's kept me up to date with the car and his plans, which has been much appreciated! Looking forward to seeing your RB finished!

 

[Bobby.]

the 172 is a real credit to ollie and now hes moved on. now once tom has taken the best of both cars and put it all on the RB shell its going to be epic!!!

My RS2'ed Wilwood 2118 172 Cup to my RB 182 Cup

Here are a few pics from the last few days.
The silver clio is pretty standard now.. Prov sold to a friend on Saturday !!
The blue one is nearly done
Just waiting for a speacil bolt and coilovers to be collected!!
Done a few things today, oil change, forged coolant hoses and fitted a new heat Sheild ...
On the weekend it should be all up and running.
Then will be straight to get the suspension set up and mapping at the end of February..

 

[PaulClioSport]

Yours will be epic to Tom!

 

[Bobby.]

No time like the present ahh.

 

[rosco454]

Cheers Ross.

 

[Jimbo_M]

Looks like things are coming along nicely tom, bet you cant wait for it to be finished so you can enjoy her.

Looks good pal. That engine bay is immaculate.

Yet it's getting there.. Changing the heat Sheild makes such a difference!!
Thanks for all the great comments guys

Am i the only person that prefers it without a heatshield? Looks alot neater without it

Car looks good tho

 

[Tombola]

Looks good, engine bay is very clean!

 

[Toms_clio]

Silver cup is now sold

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Ahhh...my old RB.

 

[Iain C]

Sounds a clever idea to me. Then sell off the silver car in standard trim for 3.5k.

 

[Toms_clio]

Sold it for 2500 with coilovers top mounts. Decat and carbon bits to a friend

 

[Sam_K]

Update when you get the mapping done! I think that mine needs re-mapping by MWM.

 

[Brett]

Great idea I think stripping the cup for bits. The breaks look awesome. I'd like 4 pots for mine, they're not really necessary I guess but they're still great to have.

 

[Toms_clio]

Few Pics

 

[R-Sport.]

Cant say I really like 2118's 15's look the wrong size on the 182-

Cars look great!

 

[Toms_clio]

Thought I'd post on my old car thread.

Back in another clio after 10 years.

This is my 3rd one off a well known member 😂 and my 5th clio sport now

Thanks Mark for the beauty @Jekyll

 

[Coops Mk1]

Cracking purchase, Mark is going to regret this 🧐

 

[Toms_clio]

Gave the Clio a full machine polish yesterday and treated it to the little cruise control panel today. Wicked little bit of kit. A must have for me 😂

 

[MrBlonde]

Nice mate,glad its being looked after.

Any other plans for it?.

Tbh not much really. Might get off those battery/ air filter covers. And will definitely be taking the wheels off for a proper clean, polish and wax
