That's convinced me on what I need to do now then.

What was the total cost for the H&R's and 20mm Eibachs?

£106 a pair on the spacers and the springs were £156 both from Larkspeed. Cheapest place I could find.

And thanks for the comments guys.

Looks really good that Scott, spacers make a big difference.

 

[King-cam]

love the colour of this car, those springs and spacers make such a difference, its got a Very nice stance.

 

[gerupsausage]

Got to be my favourite colour for the 197, lovely car

 

[Scott™]

Cheers mate.

I had the wheels back from the spray shop and fitted today. So happy with no curbage and flake. No pictures though as its s**t light out.

Whats next on the cards mate?

 

[Scott™]

Well I have a little door dent on the rear quarter since I bought it, that needs taking out. Then I have a nasty stone chip on the front right which also needs addressing. Then maybe an exhaust/spoiler but the exhaust I want is a little out of price range at £1000.

 

[Wick]

Springs and spacers look epic on this

 

[Scott™]

Thanks Wick.

Here is a cheeky picture from tonight now that I have the springs, spacers and refurbished wheels fitted.

Looks mean. Fancy a swap?

 

[Matthew]

Mint as f**k.

 

[jenic]

What's the sticker in the rear?

 

[Scott™]

What's the sticker in the rear?

It our memorial Lee Davies sticker. It won't be on long, I thought it was a little soon to be taking it off as the meet was only a week ago.

Cheers man.

 

[subarufreak]

+1, looks good without a spoiler

just a bit lower and spacers, good choice!

 

[Scott™]

Not really an update as sorts BUT I'm so excited.

I've just purchased a Supersprint exhaust system direct from supersprint in Italy. It was either that or an Arkapovic and for me the sound on the supersprint is like nothing else. Below are some videos of the setup I've gone for. Weak at the knees





That is all.

Nice Scott, you'll be one of a few UK owners to have this as well I'd think. For most it's the Ktec, Akra or Miltek.

Cheers Ben. This was another reason tbh. It's nice to be different.

If you don't mind me asking mate, what camera do you use - those are some crazy quality photos ! Are they raw or touched up slightly ?

 

[Sam]

Really nice car.

I agree with someone else who posted, you need to remove the RS badge. I think it looks odd down there, clio one dont look to bad though.

I like it with spaces to. Spot on! (Y)

 

[Matt W]

Hero choice.

 

[Harpham]

Does sound epic ScottDOT.

 

[DanielJames]

Love it! what a colour.. dont usually like monochrome cars but that is nice

 

[Trophy144]

great car, looks fantastic

would be nicer without the CLIO boot badge imo

 

[j26]

Love this, need spacers for mine now I seen this!

Thanks guys. You won't be disappointed with the spacers and don't worry. The clio badge removal is in my plans.

That exhaust will sound amazing judging by those youtube vids. Planning on a decat?

I'm sure i saw you in a TT pulling out by the green the other week, I was coming home from work in my Polo.

The car is coming on well mate!

No decat mate the race system I've gone for will be far too loud as it is. And yea that was me. I work in Natwest Pembroke now. So me and a colleague lift share and we park at the Green.

 

[Scott™]

No major update today until the exhaust arrives but I managed to give the car a wash and de badge the 'Clio' badge.

Looks 100% fresh!

Ok time to recap on my 3 stage plan.

Stage 1

• Lower the car to reduce arch gap. Complete
• Wheel spacers to push the wheels out slightly for a better stance Complete
• Silver tech bulbs
• Led number plate lights for a fresher look. Complete

Stage 2

• Refurbish Alloy wheels maybe in a darker colour. Like in the photoshopped picture below. Complete

Stage 3

• k-Tec Cat Back exhaust system Complete but changed to Supersprint.
• K-Tec Sprint Rear Spoiler.

So pretty much getting there now. All I need to purchase are some silver tech bulbs and a K-Tec Spring Spoiler.

Today when I got home this parcel had finally arrived direct from Italy.

I wonder what it could be....

Yes it is my Supersprint Race system CAT back. Kit includes Race Back box, tail pipes and centre section with no silencer. I can always get one fitted if its too loud.
Anyways the system looks immense and lets hope it sounds as epic. Booked in on Thursday so will get videos then. For now, the pictures.

 

[Matthew]

Epic exhaust mate.

Just hope you dont get the dreaded flat spot...

The flat spot is already there and the supersprint is supposed to improve it! Fingers crossed. Cheers man.
