Russell I have various parts in stock and can source new or used Cup Racer parts. PM me or email: info@APMotorsport.co.uk

I was only joking with the WD40, not a great idea over the window but you could use it directly on the seal itself as a cleaning aid and rejuvenate the rubber. Taking the the seal out is an easy job and allow you to get to the back of it to give it a good cleanse. That is all it needs. It's...

Spay WD40 all over the windows, problem solved.

Exhaust system I chose to go with the Genuine Factory Cup Racer X85 Exhaust - consisting of decat manifold, sport cat and cat back lightweight race. Cat-back weighing only 6.8KG Cat weighing only 4.65KG Cup Racer Cat doesn't come with a lambda sensor so I cut a hole, chose a 45...

Update. Another quick update to keep on top of things. Loom was stripped back, tidying cabin as well as saving 1.7KG. Loom then put back and binded tight with Tesa wiring harness fabric adhesive tape. Used circa 25-30metres. Next up, exhaust system....

I doubt you will find cheaper for the same or similar quality. You will also struggle to cut them out to shape with such accuracy from a single/ plain sheet including door handle ovals.

For mainly road and an occasional trackday I would go Bilstein or Spax and save your money but don't expect much from them. For more track work I would suggest KW Clubsports or KW Competion or Intrax for racing. The extra quality from the KWs pays off, believe me. If you decide to go KW...

I have one for sale if you need one. In fact got the whole assembly if wanted if it's any help.

Had a few moments spare so thought I'd update again. More weight saving and a general tidy up with all unwanted wirring. Loom stripped & cut back. All wire that is no-longer needed, i.e rear wiper, heated rear window etc... 1.70KG+ Saving

Stay tuned to find out ;-)

Thanks chaps. Slowly getting there, all the small but crucial work is being done currently. Then the final stages of technical Aero, Gearbox, Suspension & Kinematics. @Tutuur, carbon sheeting is manufactured by a company in Poland. Honestly one of the best I have seen, Carbontec.

Removed digital display and replaced with a lighter solution: Switch panel fabricated: Tweeters removed from dash and carbon discs made up to replace: Carbon door panels drawn up prior to cutting: Door pull strap slit cut out to the thou to allow an accurate fitment: To...

More weight removed, this time from the rear boot: Primed and painted:

Ok a little update before I get too lost with this. The car is nearly finished and got MOT'd few weeks back and passed. The vehicle is drivable and capable of a track day but around 70% finished to where I want it. I have spend hundreds of hours on the car and loose days on simple tasks due to...

Update soon...

Excellent krash67! You are ahead of me of installing mine. Looks great. Which spring latch & plates did you go for from Protex? Theres like 14 pages of the things. lol I'd be interested to hear your overall impressions with the results. Any noticeable noise or power increase etc?

andreasclio are these all genuine Clio R3 parts purchased direct from Renault Sport or aftermarket?

Ha.. Yeah dead serious. As Chris says, it will be for the Cup racer project. Gotta strip and rebuild box first thou so could be next year now. There are a couple of vids on YouTube of a 197 with one fitted if you haven't seen already. CAE-Shifters are an awesome bit of kit and well engineered...

Cracking photos!! Do you have more details on spec of your car?
