Renault Sport Clio 197 Racing Red

[Raptor6767]

For the first time I had to give someone else to polish & wax my Clio because my right leg is in the plaster.

The boys at the Meguiar's dealership did a great job:

 

[Foxspeed]

superb :wiz:

 

[N0ddie]

That's looks bloody awesome.

Under the sun:









Need to paint the brand new Brembo discs because of the oxidation.

 

[Raptor6767]

Given in mind the summer temperatures it was time for the summer setup with a set of brand new Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 tires:



Better pics when I clean the white Ultras...probably when I get the plaster removed from the right leg (sunday)... otherwise the pics would look like this (couldn't help myself - had to wash the car. ).

My god that's shiney.

[Raptor6767]

Now that's dedication! :thumbup:

Looks great though, I like the white on red.

Given in mind that I'm always doing something with my Clio...I thought it might come in handy to have my own torque wrench instead of borrowing it every now or then.




Toptul FTW

[shubz197]

Great car this is!

 

[Raptor6767]

Couldn't stand the look at the 3 months old Brembo rotors so I had to do something.

Before:

 

[Raptor6767]

Street race 25.05.2013.







Need to practice more my launches - had only 3 launches with these new GY tires. 60ft must be 2.15-2.25s without RT (these times are with reaction).

14C, poor asphalt & damp/wet track...

 

[N0ddie]

Love the pics. What engine mods you running now?

 

[Raptor6767]

Clio V6 Ph2 airbox & K&N panel filter
Ported/matched inlets
64mm TB
Lightweight flywheel
Y-pipe, Miltek decat, Miltek catback
Remap (unfortunately very restrictive)


Cams & the ported head are collecting dust on the shelve. Don't have the money/balls to install them for the third time.


This is the last dyno (01.04.2012.):

 

[Raptor6767]

Finally to catch some nice weather 7 days in a row here in Zagreb. So, it was time for a clay & wax. Had the Clio waxed only 2 times this year, and polished once.

So I had the Clio:

washed
clayed
washed
dried
waxed

Pre-clay wash:



Ready for wax after the clay, wash and all dried out...



Waxing:







Result:










Tomorrow morning comes a second layer of wax and Meg's Hot Shine for the tires.
