    PMS Shifter Kit - thoughts?

    I’ve had this shifter for over a year now and I’m really happy with how it feels, used the car with daily for a while but now it’s my weekend/track car now. It does produce a slight vibrating/rattling noise at times but for what I use the car it doesn’t bother me. The feel of the shift makes up...

    Bridgestone Potenza Sport

    I had these tyres on for a while. Fantastic on the road but do not last on track.

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    25/01/2021 Just a little update this time. Cup spoiler painted and fitted and also fitted a matt black sunstrip. Really happy with how it looks now, just debating new wheels and a Motamec bucket seat or two.

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    That does sound strange, I had powerflex engine and gearbox mount bushes and never encountered that issue only not really wanting to go into 1st when cold.

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    Personally I feel like this produces very little noise. I did see a comment from someone else that had fitted one to their mk3 and they said there no rattles like the 182 ones but I've never even been in 172/182 to compare. Is it because the CAE still uses cables? I would have never considered...

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    17/01/2021 So yesterday I finally got round to fitting my pure motorsport shifter as I was one of the first 10 to get them for testing. Was told should take about 3 hours to install but I actually took about 12 hours to install and set-up haha. Very happy with how it feels. Much smoother than...

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    An overdue update Over lockdown I considered knocking the pre-cat out of the mani for a bit extra flow to find it was loose in the housing anyway so became a no brainer. Thing is there was a noise that sounded like a slight blow so assumed I’d damaged the flexis bit could find the leak but found...

    Can anyone identify these wheels?

    Could be wrong but are they compomotives?

    Caliper pins - my view.

    When I bought my 200 2 of the first things I did was changed the pins for Mr Pink Pins and use ceratec grease instead of copper slip and also powerflex engine and gearbox mount bushes. Didn't touch the pads for about 10-11 months before changing to PBS pads and the pins came out easily. Made...

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    So it’s been a while. I think about a month ago I fitted PBS pads which I’m really pleased with, could do with out the additional dust but I knew that was to come. Since I’ve been off work I’ve been doing a few bits to try and keep busy. First off I washed my car and carried on finishing most...

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    Ideal thanks! Think I’ll sort fluid and pads first just so it’s ready for when a track day comes up!

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    Thanks man I appreciate it! Especially the discount code haha. I think I’ll be able to “borrow” some loctite from work if the right one is there. 270 isn’t it? Yeah I think I’ll go for SRF then. Isn’t it suppose to last longer than the 600?

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    So it’s been a while since I did an update. My 3rd gear synchro started to go so I ended up selling my motorcrosser to not only to fund a gearbox rebuild but also for a Quaife ATB LSD which was done last week and I’m loving the car again now. I’ve also fitted the K-tec induction kit which...

    Radiator Mounting Cross Member Part No. 2009 197 Cup

    Thanks for posting this though. Got my synchros done by Supreme Motorsport on Monday and he said everything on the car seems good except also my radiator support is rusted so I’ll be looking for one soon and I was struggling to find the right one for the 200!

    Cracked steering knuckle

    So yesterday my car was at my usual garage to get the lower and upper ball joints replaced as the lower one on the passenger side had some play. I did think about doing it myself but I thought they would be much faster than me doing it and I would be without a car for more than a day. But...

    My first french car (Clio 200)

    Scorpion exhaust is on and it sounds amazing gutted I didn’t get any pictures of the install though! I also debadged the CLIO lettering For that clean look! I can already see myself spending a lot more money than I thought I would on this car. Considering getting recaros to make it a proper...

    Ktec full exhaust, manifold and sports cat

    Isn’t the Cat in the manifold a pre-cat and then the secondary cat is the main cat?
