Cheers George!
Brakes arrived yesterday, spot on as always mate thanks!
Few parts arrived today, the most important being the caliper rebuild kit so i can get the brakes back on.
Ordered some DS2500's and braided lines to go with them.

Im away to work on Monday for 2 weeks so hopefully before then ill have the car pretty much done. I've still got an electrical issue somewhere, I'm guessing its a bad earth so will have to have a look at that at some point as well.
Having no luck finding a Volvo alternator bracket so the mrs dad is going to knock me something up at work of similar design, looking forward to that.
Just read the whole thread, cracking read mate and the car look ace.
Class thread mate. I've just bought a 04 182 to put on the track for £900 and this thread is my inspiration.ha. Did you send the calipers away or do them yourself?
Cheers
I also just read the thread front to back and well enjoied it, I just live in Leslie and would love to come by and have a look at it when your next about :smile:
Love the thread, top work. Where did you mount the inside lap belt eyebolts? are they in a original hole or did you make a new one somewhere?
Where did you get the seal kit from mate?
Said it before but fantastic work Arran. Certainly come a long way from when you first got it.
Hats off :smile:
Great read mate, a great project so far. We have got itg pro filters in stock for the phase 1 airbox and can offer them cheaper to Clio sport members
You've done a class job on it mate. If mine turns out half as good I'll be happy
Great thread - loved it so far. So jealous of your engine bay! I wish I had a place to drop the engine and clean it up myself, though I presume I would be breaking several underground parking laws!
Yep - the lack of blue spray in the interior would bug me too. Also, your headlights need polishing up! :smile:
Thanks mate I'll need to keep an eye on yours :smiley:
Cheers mate, yeah Ive been lucky with having the space as I've always wanted to do this!
I knew I forgot a photo haha, bought new headlights last week, they were badly needing done!
10mm may rub on the rear mate and you'll hear itCouple more bits added the past month, been away with work a lot so not had much time.
Got the PMS exhaust fitted, what a noise comes off it! So glad i went for the unsilenced version.
Added some 15mm spacers to the front and 10mm to the back along with a PMS stud kit.
Lastly i butchered my dash to mount the kill switch, not the tidiest but does the job :smiley:
Been struggling to get an MOT with the pas removed so i recently bought a saxo pump from Morgan on here to replace. Looks a good bit of kit so will get this fitted hopefully this weekend.
Safety devices cage should be here in a few weeks also.
Cracking job mate. Looks spot on.
Regards the rear wiring tidy up, how you hide it all, just unplug and move it all?
Do you have to pull the boot wiring through and that?
And the gearbox surround and parts there, how easy was that to tidy up?
looks great mate, I must nip round and have a look. are you in C/Balgonie?
Looking good.

Loving the blue and yellow. It looks superb
