I hope it is still standard so theres room for more power! Alot of people say that the high milage ones tend to make better figures aswell as everything is loosend up and nicely ran in at over 100k miles

Nice to meet you tonight Josh and see the LY. Looks like a mint one although a little hard to see properly in the dark lol.
Looks good. Yorkshire/North East need to get a meet sorted sometime. I'm only down the road at Northallerton
LY 182
Yeah cheers mate it was good to meet you, although everytime i look at my car it makes me want turinis now haha!
The alacantara bits look mint! Well pleased with them, some pics,

Apologies. Haha. Turinis will make it look even better though, they are simply the best wheel for a clio.
Interior looks fantastic btw.

Loved this at the evotune day mate, pictures never do a liquid yellow car justice, definitely one of my favourite colours!

Gonna be blunt, looks crap, the plate that is.

Well today we never had much to do in college so managed to persuade the tutor to let me bring my car in, i fitted the polybushed dogbone mount, the new bottom arms, and the battery cover
can anyone tell if that dent is supposed to be in the manifold where it goes over the arb ?
Cheers

At a guess, no. Car looks great though
LY 182
Thats what i was thinking, i know its a common problem that when the dogbone mount is worn it hits the arb, but i wasnt sure if thats something renault had changed on the 182 to try and overcome it,At a guess, no. Car looks great though
i also went on a rather long drive to meet Coops Turbo to buy his pure motorsport solid top mounts and strut brace so looking forward to getting them fitted!
Also gave me a chance to test the polybushed dogbone mount , wasnt expecting much but the difference is night an day! Soo much tighter changes, there is a little bit more vibration on idle especially on a cold start but its deffinatly worth it.

Yeah the mount makes a nice difference, but sacrifice a bit of vibration, all part of the fun lol.

Well not much to update recently as the cars off the road with gearbox issues, think its the diff so im going to be buying one of grippers new LSD which are supposedly quiet and should last over 50,000 miles on a road car without needing a rebuild accoriding to the man on the phone!

LY 182
Cheers, yeah got it out ok, had a nightmare with billingham transmissions though, they had it for 3 days and still hadnt stripped it so i took it back off them and it got sent up to griper yesterday so they can just to the full lot, not looking forward to getting it back in haha! Yeah it probably could do with trimming abit, i just shot it on and left it lmfaoo
