annnd this is where this project thread for the track phase 1 182 comes to an end.

Aye took a chap out at Castle Combe who seemed to fall in love with the clio, day later he phoned me up, and wanted to buy the clio...

He offered me money I said ok, and he's just put a deposit down for it...

Hey ho, it is a great car, and im sure i will miss it, but its not the end of the clio projects [emoji48]

Oh wow , really ?
Was it that easy to let go

 

[@Josh]

@Mash. 197 next?
Then get out on the grid

 

[Mash.]

For the money he offered me it was very easy... when it comes to modifying cars you expect to loose money especially when its a clio, but im happy i didnt loose much at all haha.

And a 172 cup next, with a twist.

-Jenvey throttle bodies with angled spacers and custom aluminium plenum (proper pimp)
-Engine dynamics cam'd engine belts done 400 miles ago - making 217bhp 172lb ft with the bodies above.
-Quaife diff - 400 miles old

Yep all good, managed to sort the issue with the 2 x pressure reducers plus a AP bias valve.

Set up is perfect now, getting literally no input from the rear brakes at all - which is perfect. maybe could get away with 1 pressure reducer and dial it out on the bias. but that's just me playing.

The two Mondeo pressure reducers on mine work a little "too well" , it gets pretty scary at very high speeds when needing hard braking. It tends to brake a bit too hard on the rear wheels and make it very back-end happy ..
I was also thinking of mounting another (adjustable) biasvalve to go with the two permanent reducers.. Where did you put your AP Bias valve ? Would really like to mount it so that the bias can be adjusted inside the car .. The AP one reduces up to around 40% maximum i believe ?

If the pressure reducers are working too well then you wont recieve any braking effort from the rear at all!

Sounds like you havent reduced it enough!

..was just looking at the AP valves. Quite pricey ! Do you have the "twin bore" one ? (having two brake lines ?)

.. ohh my bad, but yes that's exactly what i meant. yeah they're not reducing enough, so i'm thinking about the extra adjustable one . Good idea ?

Yep you need a bias valve in there! A proper one.

And no Ive dropped my brake lines down to one line to the rear the t piece it back up to 2

So you're running the AP one after the two reducers ? Or does the AP come first ? I'm guessing you have the two reducers way in the back near the brakes..?

It doesnt matter where you run them really i ran 2 inline one joined to the other after the bias valve
