I bought this with plans of swapping over the parts to my Phase 2 Clio. However, after cleaning it up and having a good look over it, I've realised it's a really good example of a somewhat rare car, with quality mods.

I'm now faced with the dilemma...
Do I keep this car and sell my ph2?
Do I sell this and keep my ph2?
Do i sell both and buy a newer Clio.... or something else)?

For now I'm going to advertise both my Clio's, and just see what happens! I'm also going to start working towards getting this Clio on the road. (see other ad here)

I'd be interested in a trade/swap for a Clio 197/200, Integra Type R, R26, RX8, Silvia/200sx, Evo, etc. I could possibly add a few grand towards the right trade.

Km's: 189000
Price:
$4000 with standard Ph2 172 suspension and rotors, no strut brace, press-bent mild steel exhaust, and pod filter

OR

$5000 as is.

    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good? 
    • Nice, is there a post with the new 4" dyno curve?
