So the other day I got round to sorting the heater resistor pack as its been pretty cold up this neck of the woods. No pics of that. I did also change the drivers wing back to the original titanium one, fitted my ph1 gearstick and flocked gearstick surround.
Plan now is to remove the stickers...
So I managed to track down a spoiler like the one above but in green so i need to pick up some aerosols and get it into some form of silver.
I have also bought a cat back exhaust from ebay for cheapness, unfortunately the tips have been painted black but nothing a wire wheel and some polish...
So some progress has been made but not a huge amount to show for it.
Got the clio MOT'd which means I've had it a year, think that must be the longest I've used a car continuously for. Also got the garage to replace the AUX belt and tensioner as it was squealing on full lock.
Got a free...
I got a wave off another titanium 182 the other day which took me by surprise but tend not to wave at other clios myself. Anything old or interesting i tend to give a flash (of lights) and the thumbs up to though, most respond with a wave.
Well i never managed time to change the wing or roll the arches but went out to Boyndie sprint to watch my boss this morning and to get some pics so I got some better pictures of the new wheels on the way home.
Cheers guys. Plan is to change the wing for the damaged titanium one this weekend and roll the rear arches if I get time.
The car went into the local garage on Tuesday to get the aux belt and tensioner replaced to stop it squeaking and to get the alignment done. So after that was completed I...
Heres some of the clio's that were parked along from my Boss. Havent got to the moving shots yet.
Link to my Facebook photography bit more photos will be uploaded soon: https://www.facebook.com/EngineerDaisyPhotography
I was up spectating/taking photos of my boss in SLS. Will shove the photos I have of the clios up here once I have gone through them :) Track day guys seemed to have a LOT of red flags and issues though :(
Cheers. No I didn't put it on. Took the wrap off as I'd made a complete mess of it. Really like the look of the below Clio but wondering if it's just easier to cut random shapes in grey, black and brown vinyl and do it myself with the silver background as wrapping just a wing was hard enough. I...
So when I originally bought the car I also bought new engine and gearbox mounts aswell as poly bushes for the dog bone mount so last weekend I blagged an afternoon in the garage and decided to finally fit them aswell as sorting out my exhaust mounts.
Dog bone and the black polybushes.
Out...
I've been looking into doing this on my 182 as I have a cherry bomb end silencer to use up. I'm leaning towards buying a pre-made cat to rear axle section from ebay and then just making the piece from the back axle to the cherry bomb.
mine is on v-maxx coilovers as well. Ill echo what has been said above they are a bit soft but the ride isnt too bad. A touch bumpier than the lowering springs I had before but not horrendous.
I'm planning on moving the front bumper brackets to get the front a bit lower. I bought them off...
So I've done some more wrapping. Decided to give the bullets a go in the camo as well. Look okish, getting better everytime but would have been better sanding the bullets smooth i think.
Well the other day me and my mate had planned to go for a run up to Grantown on Spey while the other half was away at her Baby Shower. Unfortunately he managed to break his impreza the night before so I went off on my own around some back roads I know relatively well from my younger days.
Only...
Cheers guys. Camo wrap is just because I can. As said I have wrapped the wing as well so I shall put it on at somepoint. It was an odd colour before it may as well be a completely odd colour.
Here is my Titanium (i think) Clio 182.
I purchased it last September with 72k miles and 1 month MOT for £1600. The car had a few mods, tinted rear windows, a sunstrip and it had been lowered on springs by 40mm.
It ran well and didn't seem to have any problems (other than the wrong coloured...
Thanks for the welcomes :)
I shall check out the Scotland Section.
Tbh im not one for a super shiny car (I like driving to much and I am too lazy to wash cars for hours) so was planning on sticker bombing the original wing and selling the one that is on at the moment. Would then buy one the...
Hello,
Just bought myself a Clio 182 in some form of silver. She isn't perfect but that suits me to a tee. Seems to drive quite well but a few creaks and groans to sort out.
Photo from the add:
and one from the other side.....previous owner got a new wing but in the wrong silver. I do have...
