NIMBUS - the DIY thread

[Joshluff]

Been a while so time for a little update



Got myself some apex 40mm springs for the front and the back wasn't to bad of a job !


Have to say with the 20mm spacers and the 40mm drop it does sit a lot better !


I've put my 4 point harnesses in the car but don't have any photos of them , so I'll take some to add on !

Apart from general servicing , brake pads , oils and what not the only other thing that's happened recently is replacing my blowing manifold with a nice new toyosport manifold

Did this with a friend in a pit took about 5 hours from getting there to driving away

Wasn't exactly fun but I didn't expect it to be !


As you can see I did a temp bodge job on the flexi as it had cracked and I didn't want my car sounding horrible whilst I waited for the manifold to come!


That's the only 2 photos I have on my phone but I have more on my go pro which I will add on !!

My you have been busy Josh.

Apex springs were one of the first mods I did to the Clio. They were awesome on track but I did find them crashy on some British roads. How you finding them?

Looking very good though and some tasty mods.

Didn't get to see a lot of it as I was working flat out. But I did enjoy it ! And I bet it was
