So glad you have come to your senses! I must applaud your mentality of "this part of the Clio died so I had better make it bigger, better or more powerful" it is one of the finest petrolhead traits and the reason this thread is an absolute roller coaster! I can only wish you the best of luck...

Is that a bypass valve in the exhaust? That will sound crazy!

Ah Crap! Sorry to read this dude, I have been following along with all the trials you have been through with this build and I am absolutely gutted for you. Especially after she was running so sweetly. Here's hoping it's the least expensive fix, if not a wise man once said Ok, I lied about the...

Saw this one Saturday around 4:45pm Looked excellent in the sun!

Should I take the date into account when viewing this?

I haven't been around a great deal recently but this thread is amazing, I know of only 1 other forum with anything like this degree of kindness and humanity. It's a privilege to be a part of this. I have chipped in, hope it helps.

Looks lovely, only downside I saw on that spec was the basic air con and the old school dash top display, doesn't look to have rs monitor either. Minor points when a car looks that pretty though!

Projex in Clevedon? I work just round the corner from there. Haven't used them myself so would be good to hear how you get on.

So it took a little while to sell the Clio, I had countless offers for different parts but I didn't really want to go down that route. A little patience was required but she found a new home (a few weeks ago now), in fact the first person to come and view her became the proud new owner and I...

In the end I went for a Megane 265... The cost of getting the performance I was looking for was too much, so I enjoyed the Clio as it was and then when the right car came along I jumped ship. I do miss certain aspects of the Clio (Akrapovic especially) but plans are afoot to remedy all that...

I was running M1144's with Brembo HC's and Hel braided lines, great stopping power over standard and I found them quite progressive too, easy to modulate, but as mentioned dusty as hell and prone to squeaking around town or when cold.

Ha Ha thanks for the kind words, when I say not straying far I mean this... I tripped and fell and occidentally placed a deposit! @VolumeX how did you know it was white!

Something has come up unexpectedly that I couldn't turn down, so I'm afraid to say the Clio will be going. I had planned on a much longer ownership, but things don't always turn out as expected. I am currently selling the car as in this progress thread, and will put an advert up later today. If...

I just checked the 3 I have in the at home (4th in work) and they are all 18x8 et68. So I think that is standard

Deep Black team Assemble! Looks Sweet!

Thanks guys @Jimmy I'm considering a sprint spoiler, maybe in anthracite, would need to photoshop that before taking the leap. @KYFO.CO.UK I'm quite happy with the contrast on the rear diffuser in anthracite, but know what you mean about hard suspension. I have heard the ride on B14's is...

My friends mobile valet company were out at my work yesterday so I asked him to grab a few pictures of the car for me before it got filthy on the way home. I think she scrubs up quite well for just a hand wash and wax! Could do with a one stage machine polish to get a few swirls out and don't...

They are very similar to Ultraleggera's in appearance imo. 17's come in 7 1/2" and 45 offset so that's the same as 23mm spacers. I would be quite interested in the weight comparison and quality. 17x8 @ 55 offset seems to be the benchmark.

It looks like the unholy offspring of a Clio, Civic and a Sesto Elemento. I think an Evora may have left a contribution too! Bit too "Halfords" for me, but hey, if they squeezed the engine in the back I could forgive anything!

Any chance one of the rears has a bit more camber, that would put the top of one wheel in or out in comparison. Not sure how much + / - the factory allows, but if your at the opposite extremes on each side it could look a lot.
