Trackspec Clio 197

Car is looking awesome and fair play for doing the alignment on your own, that is something i might be looking into as well.

What toe are you running?

 

[trackspec197]

I set it to the cup race car settings mate. I believe it was -0.10 toe

 

[Mark_L]

I'm pretty sure it

This one is designed for the Meglio Mark, not sure on diameter. Think it’s supposed to be good for 400bhp + based on what I’ve been told.

I'm pretty sure it's the meg cooler with different mounts, 70mm core up to 400bhp.

Sounds about right Mark

Can you send a link to me on where you got the Airtec intercooler mate? Thanks, Dan

EDIT: FOUND IT here for anyone interested: https://www.airtecmotorsport.com/pr...nt-mount-intercooler-for-megane-powered-clio/

And so this arrived this morning


And out of that came this

Should do the trick!

Should have some new engine components arriving shortly to start forging the engine in the next couple of months.

Will you rebuild your engine or a do you have a spare engine? What pistons and rods will you use?

I haven’t decided yet mate but I have been offered another bottom end to use so we’ll see. I’m undecided what ones I’ll use yet right now but I know I’ll be lowering the compression, with a decent set of pistons, I’ll go for H beam conrods, inconel valves, uprated springs and lifters etc. I’ll be porting the head too while it’s all out. I’ll probably leave the turbo as it is for now.

Finally sorted the spare tyres.

I’ve just seen a for sale topic on these is that where you bought them from?

I’m interested but I use slicks and have r888 so wonder if there’s much point, however my r888 have maybe two or three track days left so will need replacing this year

I'm afraid you will be paying the full £160 + vat if you wanted any as I have now only one left.
If anyone has a 172 / 182 I have plenty of 15" left at £50

Haven’t posted an update in a while with being busy with work and wedding stuff but there has been a few things happening in the background.

With mine and @Mark_L passion for fabrication we have been thinking quite a bit about potentially offering a number of lightweight direct fit components for the Clio 3. The first being a lightweight lower brace. Fully tig welded CDS steel tube offering great strength, better access and 1/3 of the weight of the OE part. More to come shortly.

Looks good standard ones are surprisingly heavy

Thanks mate. This one is just a test piece to make sure it fits well and it does... it’s exactly 1/3 the weight of the OE part.
