Roll Caged 172 Cup



  172 Cup 181bp 165lbf
Jesus, didn't realise you would all get the hump over a poxy sticker. Seems like I've insulted you all. It's a sticker, get over it lol

As for the Sparco sticker on the seats, I had them lying around and thought I would jazz the seats up abit. Yes they are not Sparco seats but the subframes, harnesses and steering wheel is. Good thing with stickers is you can just take them off.

As for the can of tyre weld, yes it is because the car never came with a spare wheel (Cup) and can is better than nothing at all surely

You didnt insult anyone, you just made yourself look a bit of a wannabe thats all, you obviously dont know CS very well if you expect that to go unpunished, lol

  Lots of Scrap...
most of the time people on here make you feel not just like you farted in church, but followed through onto the collection plate as well ;) lol!

Is the cage made of CDS?

No these aren't cds tubing chip but the guy that offers the cage would do it for £50 extra on top of the amazingly good £160 for half cage with x-brace and harness bars, op doesn't have bars on his. I'm Very for this cage for a track car at the £210 price tag for half cage that could be MSA certified if made of CDS. If its CDs or not this cage will work with what looks like 40mm tubing which will have a wall thickness of around 2mm, more than strong enough when coupled with some weld in floor plates and high tensile bolts.

Im not in the market for such a cage but for anyone looking for some more security I would highly recommend this cage at this price, the guy does good work.

And for all the guys saying about stickers etc, as much as its not my cup of tea. It's his car, leave him be, some right bell ends on here.

For the extra 50 quid I'd have gone CDS I think, although like you say, it will do something even without being.

End of the day all it has to do is not want to move to provide a useful function, and im sure it does that pretty well.

It wasn't the fact you had it, it's more the fact it is held to that bar by cable ties - In an accident if you are hit it the back/rear sides that bar will be ripped out and the canister will come off - in a heavy impact it would come off the cable ties anyway - why don't you look somewhere were it can be secured properly? Genuine advise, not meaning to be arsey :)

Yeah Chris, id sort the cable ties out mate, in a rear ender they could snap off and go flying into your head. I've seen horrific injuries from cable ties. Not worth the risk tbh mate.

Are you actually going out of your way to offend everyone? or?

TBh I think he is just new to modifying cars so is making all the usual rookie mistakes, he'll learn in time, and on the plus side he does do a lovely job of keeping it mint and he stays on top of all the servicing etc to with proper specialists when he needs to as well, so its no shed :D

182bhp as well IIRC!

K & N because a panel filter was in before and I've forgotten to take it (thanks for the reminder)
Bimarco Seats yes Sparco stickers to go with the harnesses, sub frames and wheel as I had them lying around
Renault F1 stickers because I wanted to break up the blue on the car and show my support
Safety stickers on some cheap tubing your mum dances over, because I felt like it (I'm not losing any sleep over it)
Not bothering sticker because I can't be bothered, how do you know what my finance is like?


I'm ever so sorry I've insulted you, I really went out of my way to please you but obviously I have failed. Send me pics of your car please so we can all make all the clios look the same as yours and not an individual item


Much love

Well the fact that 90% of people who have the "notbothering" sticker actually can't afford it - cos if you love cars it's an awesome place that you MUST visit - but also the fact that most of the other items on your car are cheap copies that you've then stuck more expensive make stickers over to make them look like something else kinda just screams "I can't afford proper stuff"

I don't mean offense by it - I just think you've got a VERY tidy cup that's ruined by a lot of pointless stickers. You've done some lovely mods but the way you cover everything in stickers makes it look like you're ashamed of your own parts.

Also I don't really think you want to get into a "let's compare clio's" argument with me lol

I'm not getting into an argument. We all have our own taste and I've taken your points into consideration. Saying this; like I said, if we all had the same taste in everything then the world would be a boring place and I doubt CS or anyother forum would even exist.

Thank you for mentioning that the car is Tidy, Chip is a valued member on CS and I'm sure he will agree it is in very good nick.

As Chip mentioned, the car has been maintained regardless of cost using high end garages, using genuine Renault parts and who I value their work and trust their workmanship.

"Millerin offers his hand to shack on it and call it at that" :approve:
 
Phil, ironically you can get a lot of sparco seats for far less money than the bimarcos millerin has, so he really hasnt made them look more expensive just by putting sparco stickers on.

And I really dont think its a case of he couldnt afford those, lol

Yeah but you can see they're fiberglass backed so the sparco stickers kinda make you think they're more like the £600+ each seats

Meh, I'm out anyway. Nice car, shame about the stickers - but I guess it takes all sorts

I think you're over analysing now, lol

I think everyone on here who isnt 12 or a chav probably agrees on the stickers, lol

cars looking good mate!

Your car reminds me of a Fiesta Flame down the road from me- has an RS sticker on it. Its not an RS but it reminds me of your car for some reason....

Nice cup but agree on the stickers!

Although paying through the nose for bucket seats is a false economy anyway, so just ignore Phil. He gets really defensive when people have Ring' stickers for some reason. Like it actually affects him in anyway

Thats fair enough if it says Nurburgring but mine doesn't lol and it's hidden

Cheers anyway guys, I'll take the Sparco stickers off later when I finish work

I actually think them stickers are funny.
So many retards on the other side of the scale with nurburgring stickers who haven't been.

Ive been - Overrated.

And no stickers in sight :)

although is that a PH-QUICK sticker on the front strut brace?
 
  53 Clio's & counting
Is PH-QUICK still going around?

Me and Fubar started it as a joke some years ago!



Hello stranger, don't see you posting much, keeping well?

I hqd ph quick stickers on my black ph1, that was some years ago lol
 
Isn't even a 'scarily thin' tubed roll cage better than none at all?

looks awesome btw.

I have Bimarco's in mine - lovely seats. I just didn't stick sparco/omp/recaro stickers to them ;)

It just boils my piss. There's no reason for people to make a point of not wanting to go to the nurburgring, there's lots of places I don't want to go to or can't afford to go to - there's no point plastering them all over my car

Yeah but your gay and drive an Evo so it doesn't count ;)

It does seem a bit strange that people put stickers on their car saying they havent been to the ring.

I know people with little stickers for all the circuits they have done, I wonder if people will start doing the same for those "Cantbearsed Combe" etc
