[TopCat]

Yeah looks pretty nippy mate :)

[Tutuur]

Have u carried out much work to the engine? Can't be stock can it? :)

[Tutuur]

Standard dci 100 :agree:

Considering a remap but need to buy a new intercooler first. It's completely clogged up between the fins

[Penfold aka The Dealer]

Megan 225 intercooler fits well and about triple the size of a standard DCI one ;)

[Tutuur]

But would need custom fitting right?

Yeh but for the price of a 225 intercooler it's worth it.... There ultra thin so only need pipe work and mounting... Not rocket since ;)

[Tutuur]

it won't be the problem but since it's the daily i don't want to much of a hassle to fit it.

thanks for the hint though, will take it into consideration :)

[Slammed 66]

What size are your wheels tutuur and what suspension are you using?

The car looks great dude :smokin:

They are also ultra **** :p

[Tutuur]

Still have to test fit but i found a dacia logan intercooler has the same dimensions for the hoses etc but is 1,5x as high as the dci 100 intercooler. Also mounting points are different.

Only cost me €90 plus shipping brand new!

The wheels are 16" ultraleggera's and it's lowered on cheap old vmaxx's. Have a set of h&r monotubes ready to be installed but i'm thinking of fitting them after winter...

[Nad-5GTT]

How many cars do you own:eek: You certainly like to tinker ;) nice wheels too :cool:

[JP Racing]

They suit the car really well look really good :) ive always liked the clio in that shape and wheels and a drop make it look even better :)

[Tutuur]

@Nad

Only 3, i know people who own alot more!

@jp

Thnx mate, imo it's all a good looking car needs to finish it of.
Nice wheels with proper stance!

Front needs lowering a bit more though as the arches need to be filled more :D

The wheels are kinda rare too, only thing i could find where lemans replica 16" in 7j or 9j, these are 8" wide with stretched 195/40/16 tires.

Lowered the front another 1,5cm till i had no more thread left, this is without rear adjusters (only springs) and front wound down till there was only a few mm left to be able to untie the lock ring:

It does hit the rear arch a little bit so have to make the bumpstops a bit thicker and/or use some 0,5 degrees camber shims...

[Tutuur]

Taking her to the ring again coming weekend:

Done tracking today and broke in the new brakes, what a difference!!

[Tutuur]

just arrived home after a weekend at the Ring, unfortunately it has been raining at the Ring all weekend so all i did was 1 half wet/half dry lap yesterday afternoon and none today.

however we had a tour through the Eifel on saturday which was loads of fun!

here's a little gopro footage to give you an impression of the Dci working its ass off through the German Eifel!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYwPfJhoY9A&feature=youtu.be

still have 3 laps left so think i'll be there again soon :D

[Tutuur]
