Awesome! Does a cup rack need new tie rods and / or rack ends?

In the end I wrapped my Toyo because I couldnt find a place where I live that could do it. I have just accepted I will have to look at replacing it in a few years (but at this price point I dont mind so much!)

So apparently the downside of wrapping is the wrap will trap moisture, which will lead to rust down the line. If you want to reduce heat, have you looked at getting them ceramic coated?

Someone did a fluid dynamics simulation with the wing a few years ago, if I recall it works in combination with the rear diffuser to give something small, like 50lbs of downforce at like 100 mph or something. So really, no noticeable difference.

For me, that depends on how you use the upgrades. If its in escalation of who owns the fastest - lightest - highest hp, "look at me" style, then absolutely its pointless. If you like to invest in the car, use the parts for their intended benefit (ie trackdays, hillclimbs, auto x, etc) and...

Emotional responses are not always rational.

Time to revive a dead thread! I need to replace my ABS pump as it looks like it died. I can go down the proline route and get an abs delete kit (and looks like I can leave in pump to keep the EDU plugged in to avoid faults), but it is more expensive then buying a replacement pump from ebay...

For me it was #4 I ran some Titan fluid through a few track days and the gearbox deteriorated to the point where I could not get into 3rd or 4th at high RPM upshifting or downshifting. I would have to get under 5k rpm otherwise I was forcing it in. Mounts and fluids were fresh and the car was...

I see you're running a new set of wheels, looks good!

Keep us posted!

Echoing the other sentiments on here, the Clio is a momentum car. If you just want power, get / make a Meglio (megan 225 or 230 engine and gearbox swap). Handling investments pay dividends on track. The car is a blast to drive stock when its fresh. You will need to give it time to settle...

Welcome to the club!

Thanks for clarifying! I had another look and looks like I recalled the non-floating kit minus VAT (as I live outside the UK)

Clearly the answer is K20/24 swap into a clio. Done. :tearsofjoy:

I went ahead and mapped it anyways after getting the manifold on the car. I did notice, for the day or two it took to get a new map on the car, the flatspot was a bit more pronounced than before. Oddly enough I feel the toyo quieted down within a week of install - mine has heat wrap on it so...

And it looks like it's just a reyland 330mm brake kit which is less than 600? So you're just getting the full package in one place

Depends on use? I typically go 40k kms between changes, might consider doing even more with an increase in track days.

If you want the pops, theres always the Ktec crackle map. Mine used to pop when it was properly hot, and I let the car engine brake from up high in the rev band. Now, it does it when its decently hot, but I now have the Toyo manifold and a retune remap.

I was under the impression to run a cup rack you would need the rest of the cup suspension - ee brackets, longer cup driveshafts, etc?
