Aza's Albi Blue 197 - Boosted 270 BHP & 301 lb-ft

I'm so loving these FR4T tidy conversions...:whatever:

Don't go for GY A2. I have them and they're awful compared to the CSC3 that I had.

FR4T inside! Paul who built it did a very tidy job. For e.g all the plumping is OEM pipes from 197/225, only thing that isn't OEM is the battery and induction bracket lol.

Argh, I've heard the same thing but the opposite way round on those 2 tyres I'm proper stuck on what to buy!

I would mate but the problem is these tyre's will be on all year round, and I use the car daily to drive to work etc. Probably like 1-2 track days a year being realistic, so I thought i'd bet better off getting a premium-sporty road tyre?

Medium compound would be ideal and then more fun when you do a track day. I've used similar tyres throughout winter with no problems at all.

I'm looking for an engine cover now you said that Neil Archers fits.

I'll look into it them, ordering tyres next week hopefully. 225/40/18 in stock?

Good luck finding one . I think they finish off the engine bay nicely, the f4rt doesn't have the prettiest bay..

Yep in stock in that size and ready for next day delivery.

Cant find one on eBay. I want one like Neils in white but with a Cazan logo on it

Cheers.
Best way to find one is to message people breaking their meganes fella, took me a couple of months to get hold of one.

I'm breaking some megane r26's if anyone needs parts

 

[Azagedon]

Update I forgot about
Almost forgot I installed a the headunit too!


Now all I need is a 2 meter aerial extension lead to run under the seat up to the dash as the real radio unit is under the drivers seat. Pain.

A huge fan of MCM!!

I just spotted your tyres in your signature, how are you finding those in the rain/cold, daily driving mate?

 

[Azagedon]

Sparkle sparkle!



Stickers on, next up battery cover.

Tbh on a damp day at around 9 degrees they still have fantastic grip. They feel like the conti's in the wet. Warm up quick too so give good confidence. I've also done a track day on mine and they still have plenty of tred on them.

I was going to buy Conti's but now that you've said that its some food for thought!

 

[Azagedon]

A quick job at it's second home...


Finally have the exhaust funnels fitted, not bloody cheap for two metal tubes with brackets on.

 

[Azagedon]

Bought some PS3's. Haven't 'tested' them yet only been on a week. Feel good in the wet though, I swear my brakes feel better too.. .
Very comfortable and have low road noise. I'll report more after the HOW FAST track day!

Suddenly a wild clio appears :001_tt1:

My 197 Lanyard arrived, cheers Jase!

Big delayed update

Bit delayed forget to post on here sometimes ..
Anyway went one a track day with TB Rich to Bedford that was awesome. Suprised a lot of cars there which is always fun (Cayman R, 350z, R26.R, focus RS what?), the clio performed amazingly.
It's highlighted a tiny issue with the cv joint ticking but that's about it. Pads lasted all day long no fade, 1144 are epic. PS3 tyres held up very well too!! The amount of pickup was insane though, free tread right? :thumbsup:

My rear discs are getting a bit low MOT is in a few days so ordered some M-tec brakes. Cheaper than std and got them drilled n grooved for fronts and backs, happy days.


New re-trimmed wheel, half perforated leather, half alcantara, orange stitching and blue 12 o clock marker. The orange theme is up to a T now!!! :biggrin: (Orange cage next?)

Turinis are full of win.
