Coming along nicely. :thumb: Can see the pictures fine btw.

Welcome aboard. :thumb:

Give Longlife exhausts a try as they'll be able to do that for you and seem to have a fair few branches around. https://www.longlife.co.uk/dealer

I painted mine myself in situ on the car ~ went with grey primer, gloss black and then a gloss lacquer to protect the finish. It's definitely the easiest, cheapest option and so far is standing up to the test of time.

Thanks @EthanMenace . I'd removed the rear speakers and the two screws holding them in already. The other screw behind the white bit is there but doesn't hold the piece of rear trim I'm removing so I gave it a bit more of a harder tug. It did come away then and the only other thing I had...

Hello all, So I've been fiddling with my 2006 Clio RS 197 and one thing I'm looking at is trying to get the rear interior quarter panels off. For now I've removed the rear seats so have good access to the panel itself, ....I've given it a good tug and some pop clips have come out so it's partly...

Welcome ~ it sucks that such a great hot hatch can have such a poor gearbox.

@VeiRoNv2 I haven't done it but yes you can dye your seat belts. Some info here: https://seatplenary.com/can-you-dye-seat-belts/#:~:text=The%20Step-by-Step%20Guide%201%20Step%201%3A%20Prepare%20Your,Dry%207%20Step%207%3A%20Reinstall%20the%20Seat%20Belts This type of stuff should work...

Regarding the harness colour, what about dyeing the blue one with a red dye? I'd imagine to get both colours the same though might be hard but it's a cheaper option. Oil temperature gauge is a very good idea for a track car, tbh it would be a good idea on any car imho. Fully synthetic oil...

Definitely great for track days and more. I bought mine for hillclimbs and sprints but will also be using on the odd track days. Biggest thing to look out for is the gear box ~ 3rd to 4th gear crunches are common and when the synchro's go can cost a bit to sort.

@VeiRoNv2 removed something like 3kg of sound deadening and then a load of metal brackets for around a 6kg weight saving I believe. You can do both though @jimmybell for even more weight savings (not my Clio but lots of metal holes cut to save weight). :thumb:

That's brilliant. What a funny loop hole. :grinning:

Proline braided lines do what you are after I believe. AFAIK they have kits to replace every single hardline on our cars with braided lines. :thumb: Link here: https://www.prolinebraidedlines.com/collections/clio-iii

You're welcome @RSRowe glad I could help. :thumb:

Thanks for that. Just seemed low but if it works then I will do the same as you. Thank you. :thumb:

@Alistair did you fit the stud conversion? I've got a set ready to go on my car but wondered if you knew what nm or ft/lbs they should be torqued up to when fitting into the hub please? K-Tec racing list on their website their own stud conversion kit which they say "Tighten stud into hub to...

Fantastic. Hope it works out, as I said I bought a few things from him and he seems a sound guy. Link here if it works: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1767745473527723/posts/3218283821807207

Not sure if this is the part you need. Guy on Facebook who've I've bought off is selling lots of parts including this heatshield set. He wants "£10 collected WA16 7AE too fragile to post". His name is Mike Ward and it is in the "Clio Sport Sale & Parts UK" group on FB. I'm guessing you don't...

They weren't thinking obviously. :drunk:
