Done a few more easy bits which makes a huge difference to the overall appearance in my opinion! Firstly was the rear diffuser, the grey plastic against the red looked really drab. So took it off, gave everything a clean and painted it satin black! Not the best photo but much...

-- PSA -- Check your Pollen filter people! Also don't buy a Bosch one, as they are shite. The plastic frame has no give and just snaps :sweat: Febi did the job! Also hit the car's AC with a Odor remover. Hopefully can do a few more jobs over the bank holiday!

You'll have to let me know what you want for it

Exactly that, indicator off and bullet slides toward the back of the car. Quick sand to key the plastic and spray painted them Yeah I used Gtechniq C4 for the rest of the plastics, can get some good results! Give the plastics a good clean down first, you also don't need a lot! Might have to...

Hi all, been noticing a eggy smell coming from the car? Mainly after driving then stopping to park up. Anyone know what it could be? Been seeing suggestions on Google around the pencil coils/fueling issue?

On another note, I think the missus did good for my birthday! :thumb: The cat approves i think? I also bought some new wheel sockets to go with it. Next on the tool list is a new torque wrench as mine broke...

Been a busy bank holiday weekend, progress has been made! A lot of little tidy up jobs ticked off. First of all, gone are those plate holders and old plates... Fresh pressed plates which I ceramic coated before putting on I think that was a hex head once upon a time...

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.
