CLIO 182

CLIO 182
that's such a huge difference I hope you didn't pay much for the first place its almost scandalous that haha! Good looking car though mate really clean!
and ira not so clean at the moment, havnt cleaned it since xmas with all this crap weather. Cant get the hose out because it will all freeze over on the footpath where all the oldies slip over and to scared to take it to a car wash to have salty grit jet washed off it from point blank.

After going to Oulton Park this weekend it has made me want to change a few things to my car. Ideally I want to buy another clio ready for track so I don't have to spend money caging it etc but I don't have an endless budget.
So, for now I want to turn mine into a fast road car. Have already got the suspension how I want it but what else makes it fast road?
Don't really fancy spending 1000s to earn an extra 20bhp via ITB. Induction kit is my first port of call I think and a remap.
Would love to take this on track but is it safe without having a cage? Would hate to bin my daily
Yea cause your safe to take it on track, end of the day the organisers will stress how it's not a "RACE" during the briefing. It's normal fun to have a little tussle with other drivers but it's nowhere near the level you would when competing.
Majority of cars on track days are people's everyday motors, I use my r26 on track days and that's not caged.
There's always a risk of accident but that's still there on the road when your driving and as long as you stick to rules and guidelines you'll be fine.
Anyone who owns a performance car and doesn't track it clearly doesn't know the full potential of there car and what there missing out on
Megane r26
very true that Dan. I will have it on track soon
Honestly mate you'll be asking yourself why you haven't done it sooner, I know I was!
You don't need to spend millions like some do to have fun, most of the people that seem to do this are to scared to use them in anger.
You'll often see the people having most the fun at track days are in the lesser spec'd cars.
I was suprised how many moderately tuned clios were at my first day, there great cars for it.
I've got a cheap code reader mate will read the codes on yours I used it on my 182 for decat to wipe the code. Save a few £££ if ya want
Lovely car. Regards the engine light try a code reader cheap one off eBay for about £12 won't do engine management stuff though or try swapping your lambda sensors round. It only takes 20 mins or so and its an easy/cheap fix if it works. Think its 22mm open ended spanner needed. While your under there I'd recommend poly bushing the dog bone. About £50 for them and makes a difference on the gear change removes loads of play in the gear stick. Happy fettling, it never ends!
What's the verdict then Lee?
sure @jamesbell you get them from fancyplates.
just google it and you will find them.

Track car wise - as long as the brakes are decent / fresh (discs, pads and fluid), decent tyres and the car is mechanically sound, then get it on track. Things like cage, mods etc aren't needed to have fun.
Best thing you can spend your money on is tuition, especially on your first track day to show you the lines etc. Also, try to book a day that is sessioned as opposed to open pit on your first day, as you'll get to head out with other track beginners so you won't have people flying along on track at the same time to begin with.

quick rinse and decontaminate to get rid of all the stubborn gritty bits and then onto washing.
gave it a twice over with autoglym body shampoo then a good polish with autoglym super resin. Then a finishing spray with maguires quick detailer spray.
Not a bad result for a quick clean.
noticed a few stone chips from over the winter with all the salt and grit on the road, really does ruin cars.
