New addition..

[Mar172]

Chi did you manage to sort out the idling on the itb trophy ? The last time I read it was at 1.5k

 

[Chi]

I haven't bothered mate. I can have it mapped but car still needs dephaser changing so will probably have cams thrown in and get remapped so thought I'd save the money and let new owner sort it.. Engine is sound other than the high idle..

 

[The Russian.]

Currently Ive got 4 clios and the megane.
My plan is to use the ph1 for track and occasionally the R26 just so I can get used to driving the same car really... Id really like to keep the Trophy but it's not going to get used so has to go.. Turbo 2 is awful in the wet but lots of fun when dry, it's running around 280 at a guess.. Turbo no1 has gone to a new home.. Although it had a little more power I much prefer the new turbo. . Quaife diff ftw and power steering too.. Just feels better...
Are you after a px Jacob lol.. Ive just had the R26 plastidipped in white and red. . Cant wait to get it back..

Not sure how to price my ph1 tbh. So would prob sell privately.

Itb'd trophy is also tempting. Lol

 

[Chi]

Come and check them out mate bring yours

Will do when I get it back, proper looking forward to that. But I just miss the Megane size and capability.

 

[Chi]

Tbh I resigned myself to keeping it because I love it. That's why I got it dipped to save it getting chipped. Yours will be epic when it's done mate you won't want to sell. .

 

[imprezaworks]

When's the megane back, I'm sure you did tell me.

 

[Chi]

Any day now

 

[imprezaworks]

Let me know

 

[The Russian.]

Let me know

You want a Clio. Schooooo!!!

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol, not in the market for a meg mate interested to how it looks.

 

[Chi]

Just agreed to buy full leather trendlines too..

 

[imprezaworks]

You a secret hoarder, should have your own tv show lol

 

[S_E_A_N]

Get some pics up of plasti dipped megane when its done please, my mates just ordered a gun and paint and its giving me ideas

 

[Chi]

Thought I'd killed it but happy to say it's now running again.. Thanks to a mate of mine..

 

[imprezaworks]

Who fixed it?

 

[Chi]

Just a mate.. I pay him to come round once a week and look after the cars.. He's a top fella and awesome with electrics..

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah fair one. Looks great in the pics mate

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Why spend money on a load of old Clios when you could get something really decent instead?!

 

[Chi]

There's nothing much better for track days mate. . Nothing I wouldn't worry about crashing anyway... What would you suggest?

 

[Chi]

Ah fair one. Looks great in the pics mate

Looks better in the pics, it's rough up close but that adds 2 seconds a lap

 

[imprezaworks]

I've seen it . Does what it says on the tin. You taking that to oulton?

 

[Chi]

Yes mate its going to be my 1st choice from now on.. if I spin it's getting sold

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol

 

[dmallett]

that silver ph1 looks alright tbh, much done to it?

Id just use that one for track days lol, still got the ugly ass turbo thing?

Cheers that's the plan to be honest. . Other than cage, buckets, harnesses, gaz golds and pagid brakes its standard... Not sure what ugly ass turbo you mean That's not going anywhere!

E46 M3. Or tune the R26 up a bit and get some ASTs and bigger front brakes.

 

[Chi]

Good shout but consumables cost a fortune

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Good shout but consumables cost a fortune

Yeah that's true. One of the reasons I got a Clio is because its cheap.

But surely the cost of consumables on one premium car is going to be the same or less than several Clios!

 

[Chi]

I'm pruning my fleet..

 

[Jay.S]

I like the Ph1 looks better than I expected for some reason. Better exhaust needed though

What was up with it?

unless you you want a decent gearbox with LSD, then it ain't cheap!

Wait for it.........

 

[Jay.S]

Wait for it.........

Ran out of fuel

 

[imprezaworks]

Chi tell the story

really need to change those harnesses and get some proper 4/5/6 point bar mounted harnesses instead of those 3 pointers going over the bar like that.
never been a fan of poorly mounted harnesses and I still see it so often

 

[Chi]

Reversing terminals caused 2 fault codes which needed deleting. Also a dodgy fuse which looked ok.

I was thinking that but going over the bar changes the angle?

Fit turbo parts to ph1? job done!

 

[Pauleds]

4point fitted properly to that harness bar would be the perfect angle.
The 3 points shouldn't be fitted then 'pulled' over the bar as they are not designed for that.
Also the rear mounting point should be fitted centrally to the seat they are going to not offset like they are, as in the event of a big crash they are not pulling centrally and can cause a twist.So many people just cheat by screwing them into existing mounting holes rather than fitting new ones.
