SUPER 1600 REPLICA based on 172, CLIO WILLIAMS Tribute, CLIO WILLIAMS IV (Australia)



Re: SUPER 1600 REPLICA based on 172, CLIO WILLIAMS Tribute, CLIO WILLIAMS IV (Austra

Hey Riccardo! Glad to see you on here.

After meeting Riccardo a few times now and talking to him, he is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and passionate about his Clio and rallying. He is planning to start up a rally here in Sydney which would be awesome. He also makes really good pizza at his shop in Sydney! Haha

I can assure you this car is the real deal and he'll be looking at the Clio V6 for ideas an inspiration about the widening of the track.

Some photos from our drive on Sunday with the car before the bodykit:



Thanks Alex very very appreciated! I'm glad I found you guys! :rasp:
I really enjoyed that sunday.. I can't believe that you took photos of my car :eek:....IT WAS EMBARRASSING, I hope I haven't damaged the quality of the event...
Event that you organized in a professional Rally sport director way! WAS AWESOME! we should do this every month!

yep having a close look at the V6 widening will definitively helps because I''m a bit stuck on the front struts/arms..

Looking forward to see how this going to turn out!

As for winding over the rear track are you going to be doing something like this?

I saw this on a ex clio cup car in France, converted to a clio rs maxi. thought it might interest you.

Very nice search Andrew!
That blog is a bit hold but I really love it! did you see how cool is that F2000???? wow!!
Yes is going to be the same but I have to move the hub a bit up because I will use the ones from Laguna that are a bit bigger and the axle will hit the chassis...

Any links or more pics of this blog? Interested how its been done, the above picture looks a bit suspect for a rally car.

I like the lowering and wide block idea, very good so far.

This car is going to look epic when finished. Good luck.

Supprised its actually coming up to the body, and making it slightly flush.
Getting more intrested in this as it goes along, and your making updates pretty quick.
Good Man,

This does look brilliant. Great choice of colour too. Keep with it and good luck (although it seems you have enough know how to not need luck)

Is that 3x25mm spacers on there??. That rear wheel bearing isn't going to last long, or is that a temp measure until you get your metal block spacer/lowering thing done.

yep i put them to make sure about the measures for the spacer, next week i'll pop on the cnc workshop to check if he is doing them..
and the spacers I'm using at the moment are actually 3x 30mm!!! :)
I will never put myself in a car with 3 spacers per side... :)

That's alright then.

I'm now trying to imagine chasing birds on the beach, thanks for that.

Sounds like a plan! I'm based at Holsworthy, near Liverpool so you'd be about an hour away. Still worth the journey though.:)
