WTF!!! So whoever's owned it has taken the good bits off it? They made the car! Hope your going to get it back to somewhere near to where it was before you sold her! Great news though. Bet your chuffed to have it back in the stable!
Yes mate it will be getting some goodies however I won't go as extream as the car will now be my daily. So suspension, stock recaros and some wheels which I already have haha Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Cheers buddy, erm hard because for me I'll always be biased to Megane but I think they just do everything so well and the Clio in its current state is a one trick pony Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Cool, was just looking at Clio Turbos like this as replacement for my r26 and wondered what you were doing with yours.
Quality that you bought your old one back mate. Bet it feels weird driving it with a stock setup. Did you sell all the parts before you sold or did the previous owner? Has the cage, Pole position, cae etc all gone?!
They made it a very niche car and selling a niche modified car is often far from easy. Taking those bits out makes it more sellable plus you can sell the bits too.
Yer the car was stripped unfortunately but that's ok I got her back so cheap it doesn't matter, she still has plenty of good stuff but the main stuffs gone. It actually feels fantastic on the road as it is but that won't stop me, already ordered some BC coilovers so nothing mad but good enough for what I want, wheels going for refurb, and bought my original ktec intercooler back then it's a hunt for stock recaros.

BCs arrived and look a fantastic but of kit for the money, the bud quality looks and feels excellent. I've also ordered a mid box chop pipe for bit more noise as the cat back is no longer on the car. Wheels are off being refurbished and should be back end of next week (having them done the same colour as my original enkies) Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Got the driver's side fitted before work going to do the rest when I'm home Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
If your fitting the coilovers yourself, how do you go about setting them up. Do you just get them to a rough height and then take it somewhere for a proper setup
Yes mate that's it I always have the driver's side a little higher but a thread or two so when I'm in it it's level and some how when I don't the Clio suspension it was bang on. I'm by far no mechanic but I give it a go, I do however take it to my mates garage for full geo etc Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
BC coilovers fitted, new ball joint in the passenger side wishbone and a good clean. A set of cup wheels fitted whilst my OZ wheels are being refurbished Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Looks much better, did you drill the top of the tower out for camber adjustment. How long did it take for you to fit the coilovers
Good to see you back mate! Car was epic first time round. Hopefully take it a step further this time [emoji6] Sent from my F5321 using Tapatalk
Yes a friend of mine modified my turrets about 2 years ago. Fitting wise that depends on how easy stuff undoes etc. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
She's sitting pretty, wheels should be back from refurbers by Friday. Just need to put the plate on now Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Looking epic as always, mad how much a set of aftermarket wheels improves the look of these cars. [emoji108] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Does indeed mate and I've just bought full leather recaros so I'm a happy man now Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Plates back on, washed and put away whilst I'm on holiday for 2 weeks Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Best topic in this forum. Spent the whole day reading through the topic. E.P.I.C. Thank you for sharing everything with us. Really helpful reading.
I've been away for 2 weeks in Greece which was well needed but hey didn't stop me buying wheels haha. 18x8.5 et50 Rays Prodrive CG-010E 245/40/18 pilot sport 4 Still need to set the suspension up so expect a little more camber etc Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
I know you had KW Clubsport on the car - what's your take on them? I have them on my 197 and they are great. Want the for my 265 Cup that will be mostly used as a daily driver. Cheers
Fantastic suspension! Getting on a bit now so the like of nitron and AST are always options but for me they where excellent on the road. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
So got my leather recaros today and I'm super happy with them! Far nicer then the last leather ones I had, far softer and look in great condition. I gave them a clean up with carbon collectives new leather cleaner them set to work with my secret weapon...red Sharpie. However the lad that had the car off me fitted stock seats and whoever fitted them has destroyed 2 of the T40 torx bolts that hold the seats in and typical it's one on each seat!!! So I need to get them out somehow Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
