Is that a genuine V6 Clio?
What other stuff is in the garage? Are they customer cars, or is it all your stuff? Sorry if that's been covered already.
Love this project - you've done a really good job.
Looks like a Clio V6 Cup car, and the car in the background a MK1 Focus RS?! Definitely some cool cars in there.What other stuff is in the garage? Are they customer cars, or is it all your stuff? Sorry if that's been covered already.

Are the rear lights going back to standard Citroen items?
This has to be one of the best projects I've seen in ages. Brilliant!
Does the running gear still have all the electronic diff controls etc left in there? Surely they'll go mental with the car being too short, IIRC Nissan had to go to town on the running gear of the Juke R for the same reason.
Brilliant though, and those arches round it off so well!

Should be fine. AYC works on Lat and Long G-sensors, steering position, TPS, bizarrely brake light, and wheel speed sensors. The reduced wheel-base shouldn't affect the software.

Besides, you can re-map the AYC ECU anyway. Ralliart did replacement modules that ran more agressive maps for Tarmac and Gravel GRP N applications. The code has now been cracked and you can map your own at home - but it's very complex and not without risk.
Wow! Can't believe I've only just spotted this thread. Looks like you've done a great job. Can't wait to see it in action.
If it was me I would have the standard tail lights and badges plus I would re finish the wheels in the standard silver and smooth the arches in for the super sleeper look.

hello,
you are correct it is a proper clio v6 cup car, the focus is a 4 wheel drive subaru engined rally car, both are owned by my friend who owns the workshop he lets me share the shed to keep the toys in, i think the ayc should just work the same as it did but if its no good will swap the diff for a mechanical one, i will be changing the rear lights after a trip to a breakers yard for some standard ones
thanks Will
