Finally an update! I've gotten my car back from Jade Developments after a long list of work, and it now feels mega! Big props to Sean for getting everything sorted. The front end feels so tight and responsive after the refreshed suspension components. Still taking it steady as it does have a...

Did a few little bits before the car was sent off, New LED reg lights, Black badges, and replaced all the interior lights to white LED's as most where flickering. Also had the fun job of removing the old phone holder, somehow the pad had stuck itself to the windscreen? Or my brother glued it on...

Car is booked in for the 30th of March at Jade Developments. Now we wait... May do a few small bits in-between

They slide in freely, even if you did just have to tap them in the end is much thicker as it doesn't have the ring so no chance of bending it!

Finally got around to finishing off the brakes! Also ended up ordering different caliper pins as the new Brembo ones instantly bent! Highly recommend the ones with the retaining pins, so much easier to fit, and no faff to remove down the line! Took the battery off trickle charge, car...

Finally had a dry day to work on the Clio, all going well until I went to fit the braided brake lines... They accidentally sent me lines for a 182. Returning these and ordered some other ones On the plus side, I've decided to go for the full kit rather than just the fronts and the short...

Just an update, everything has arrived to do the brakes. Just waiting for a dry weekend! Literally non stop rain... Gone for GodSpeed J hook front and rears, paired with Mintex MRM1801 pads on the front with brembo pads on the rear. Also going to be putting on some Goodridge braided lines...

Yeah the mould was not a fun job! But the interior didn't come up too bad! It's in need of a steering wheel retrim, Will go back to Royal Steering wheels as I really like the one I had on my R27, New gear knob will be on the list too. Just need it on the road first and foremost! The roof rails...

Up Next was to fix some of the issues, unfortunately before taking it off the road my brother did rear end someone, considering the bumper hardly has a mark on it, the crash bar says otherwise... So replaced that Also gave the car a quick once over to get rid of all the tree fall/sap and...

Hi All, time to brush the dust off this thread! So to catch everyone up, I had a nimbus silver R27 which this build thread was originally about, I sold it to friend who wrote it off... I think it's been put back on the road by someone else, not sure if they are on here I then had the Imported...

So an unfortunate update, my Clio R27 which I sold to my mate, he wrote it off,hit a curb in other news I've already sold my Hawkeye, bought a mk7 gti which I'm already considering selling... Which means a new car, Im hopefully coming back to a Renault! I miss the French car community and...

So it's been a while... The time as come to move on from the R27, it will most likely be sold to my mate. Which means track days together which I'm super looking forward to. Especially in the car I've replaced it with. 2005 Subaru Impreza Wrx STI JDM. Twinscroll turbo, 8k redline, 340bhp/350ft/lb.

So finally got the car back today, Dash isn't lit up like a christmas tree anymore. The abs fault was due to the rear hub being corroded away and made the sensor rub against the back of the abs ring on the disk. New rear disc's and hub was needed. My bank balance was not happy! Only issue is...

The tyres where about £70 each off blackcircles. Worth the money! And worcestershire mate

Thanks! I think it was worth every penny. I went to him and he fitted it for me. But I'm pretty sure you just have to disconnect the battery then remove the airbag. Mines perforated leather for the main grip, then alcantara top and bottom, red marker and it's silver stitching to match the car :)

From memory it was £110 and he takes your old one in exchange. But you can have different materials like leather, perforated leather and alcantara. A replacement wheel from renault is £170 the last time i looked

Ah nice list, a lot is on my to-do aswell :') A set of H&R go well with the F1 strings, running that in mine, just need a decent offset alloy to fill it out :D I got my wheel done at royal steering wheels, top job!

Eagel F1 asymmetric 3's, they'll be going on the front then the current asymmetric 2's onto the rear. Yeah my brothers crunch in 3rd/4th too :') trying to find somewhere local to do it!

Nice F1, Good choice on colour :wink: I had both my rear calipers seize up on mine, very common fault! What other plans you got for it?
