Sold the Clio yesterday, so went and picked this up straight away.





Has a rebuilt JP4 from a Citroen C2 VTs
Gaz coilovers
206 GTi brakes
Raceland manifold (heatwrapped)
Decat Scorpion back
Ecosse induction kit
Quickshift

Few other bits and bats, really happy with it, seems about as quick as Clio, if not quicker, unsure. Love it anyway

This is definatley true.

Got rid of Clio for this for cheaper insurance and cheaper parts for track usage.

Painting the bonnet and boot next week, few little stone chips on them and I want it perfect.

Yeah groups have changed. 182 Clio went from group 16 to 32 I think.

It's all a bit confusing if you ask me lol.

Is the engine got the same power as the vts / gti's? I always though the c2 vts felt slower but it was in C2. My mates one sounded shit too with a stupid whine and it had something replaced to do with the inlet manifold which was meant to fix it and was still the same. Mustve had an extra fan added, iirc they were single fan over here but was a space for the 2nd

Fans are painted.

C2 lump is slightly slower, but when it was rebuilt the J4 springs and cams etc were put back in from the GTi engine.

That was a common fault, manifold bolts needed to be replaced is all

Looks nice OP
