this is a quick bit to show people the latest clio build, this is my 3rd clio 172, first been a near stock 172 cup, then a striped ph1 on jenveys throttle bodies and catcams and this one, another early silver ph1 172.
this ones having something a little different, i loved the way the clio went on track and even more so with the last one putting out a fair bit over stock power so this one is having yet some more

after a few weeks when the kw coilovers were fitted, along with the inside stripped out. also thrown into the mix at the same time was a decat pipe, itg filter and a ktec stealth system. made the car handle a well and the engine sounded a little better, well untill a high pitched squeel aroze from the engine, lucky for me i caught the cam belt tentioner before it let go, so at 88k the belts were changed on my drive by a mate of mine, came down and did it at cost for me + macdonaldshttp://www.519automotive.co.uk/

did a few basic things, ph 2 rear lights, cup spoiler, tow strap and painted the wheels, also fitted a bucket seat and dropped the steering rack lower, fitted a recon gearbox as mine had lost reverse. since the pics ive picked up a few bits and changed a few things, im at max camber adjustment up front before the tyre hits on the coilover and i spaced the rear stub axels and gave them some camber,+15mm each side, has made the car feel very safe in the corners but still feels like it needs more camber up front. and the supercharger kit
