Small update,
Nothing major has happened, still smoothing my bullets to a smooth surface prior to wrapping and stickers on them. I've been working on blanks for the roof scoop if for road driving and starts raining to block it off.
Still spraying my wet wheels white, tempted just to keep my cupracer ones yellow.
Anyway I pulled the car out a little to get some more pics of it
That's about it for now, I'm a person who's always itching to do things and small mods so I always get an itch for doing things.
I've finally got around to having my exhaust sleeved correctly and will no longer be blowing at all
!!

So let me just update in a few posts to where the car is now as its been an awful long time!
UPDATE:
Cars changed a little since I last posted. Some behind the scenes photos. More track time.
First up was stud conversion
I ran 2500's which worked well but with the Meg engine I wanted to have abit more of a bite. So went for 1.11's. Kev @ Kamracing hooked me up once again in short notice
My car then went back to Sean to have the front end dropped some more.. on the way up to JadeDevelopments I managed to hit a pothole so much so it smashed the top bearing on my strut and bent my axle :worried:
So Sean replaced the bearing and lowered it by adding one of his road series kits to the top and bolting my adjustable topmount to that.
As for he rear beam well that was well out! So managed to pick one off from marc who had the white Clio on here. Thanks again, car sat allot straighter too :smile:
Sat nice after it all!
After that all happened, next day early I went and cleaned the car so I could have my cupracer wheels fitted and head out for the cars photoshoot
Tight or what!
Car all clean

Abit of behind the scene photo!
Now it wasn't until I had my cupracer wheels on I noticed how bad the car was bent at the rear. The toe in on the rear was around 6 degrees out one side.
so woke up again nice and early, ripped my old beam off and installed its replacement, putting it all back together gave me a good opertunaty to copper slip bits that needed and lube, cleaned up my coilovers and then installed my pads.
Had the beams together to see if I could see where it was bent however couldn't see until my wheels were on.
With that all on and pads taken for a bedding in drive we were all set to leave at 4
0am Tuesday to head to Oulton Park!
Headed out nice and early with an rb182 and his friend in his evo
Started of fairly dry which was perfect for me to one get used to the track but two mainly to get used to my new setup. Since my last track day I've had my bucket seats in, new cupracer coilovers and full geo set up.
By the end of the day it was getting wet on the track and which I was then going faster in wet than I was in the dry. Car was full off grip and behaved very well!
Pleasantly surprised how well it performed.
However for the evo it didn't end up too well and hit a barrier :worried: so to lighten the mood up we got this bunch over for photos haha.
Rear quarter, light, ayc pump, boot and bumper damaged.
Sir Chris Hoy happened to be in the garage next to us so had him over with the car for a photo. Had a little chat also as around 14 years ago in my bmx days he used to present the trophies to me.
Some track shots of the car. Sits so nice as well as performed amazingly
That's all for now I think,
Day after my GoPro setup arrived so rollbar mount, mic and I cut my old housing up so I can now run a powerfeed to it and also external mic. So no need for my exhaust clamp and innertubes holding my GoPro up
More track time will be booked, probably get another set of AD08R since they hold out well in the dry and wet
Oh a little wet track shot. Really liked driving the track in the wet. Car still had plenty grip

Here's a couple clips put into one from my morning at Oulton Park :smile:
Purchased a couple bits for the Clio, nothing big.
Ordered a new expansion bottle which is allot more oem. Il be installing a Dacia sandero bottle so hopefully sit abit better than my 182 bottle.
Ordered in genuine Renault service kit for the Meglio so that can all be swapped over and freshened up abit
Ordered up some tyres so I've purchased some direzzas to go on my cupracer wheels and Ad08r will be going on my wet wheels
I've also booked a day at donnington in may so I'm looking forward to that, and also I've got a couple sessions booked at French Car Show. After that I'm most probably going to do Cadwell or oulton again.

Not sure how many of you are youtubers and enjoy watching car stuff on it..
If you are then why not have a little look at this, just excuse my overly happy face and being a little shy/awkward
