Hi looking for some advice, I have a 172cup its on standard dampers with eibach proline springs, decent track tyres, powerflex bushes on front end and generally decent condition all round , would like the rear end to be more stable and just a bit better handling all round. I am back a...

There are different parts numbers for them all, but some are quite similar.

Right i am in a bit of a panic. We are heading to Nurburgring in 2 weeks and my ASTs have not arrived yet and i am running out of time to sort an alternative if they don't come, I wont get into why there not here yet just want ideas of what to do as a back up plan. The car is a 172 cup and...

Anyone got anymore info? The Cup shafts seem way more expensive??

I think your right, had gearbox out a few months back and cant remember a carrier! ​

Dan whats the difference? Is it just length? ​

I know theirs loads of threads about this but still havent found a yes or no answer, I have a 172cup, want 2 new drive shafts, will 172 non cup shafts fit a 172cup, car will be getting lowered a little soon. I have found a phone number for Adam who seems to pop up quite a bit in other thread, so...

Cheers guy, will just bash on when the ASTs arrive!

Hi currently awaiting my ASTs, I have my PM solid top mounts, will i need anything else in terms of parts when fitting these to my car?

Can anyone recommend me some where in North East that is good for suspension setup, Will be looking to get the cup setup with AST coilovers and PM top mounts in the next few weeks, possibly looking at getting the car corner weighted too. Cheers

Hi just after some setup advice for my 172 cup, I have done loads and loads of searching and have plenty information but not much of a definitive answer. I will be ordering ASTsportline 2s very soon, my question is what would be a good base to start from in terms of camber toe ect. I will be...

That £1350 is ex VAT, Cooksport are the people to speak too, I will be ordering sportline 2s very soon!

Sounds about right if there just disks for the rear, and not complete hubs inc disks!

Cheers for the reply's, only removing for weight reduction! ;)

Just checking this if someone can answer, Carbon canister, The pipe that goes up to top of rockerbox should it be blanked off? also the pipe that goes back to fuel tank is that just a vent for fuel tank? Acoustic valve, the pipe that goes up to inlet manifold does that need blanked off? Cheers

Wanted to know what there like!

Any one had anything to do with these? http://www.direnza.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&manufacturer_id=22&product_id=326

Any one got an opinion on the difference in performance terms? Cheers

Chip I see you used the dephaser on your build thread, some of the other turbo builds use a fixed pully, just wondering if there's any benefit either way?

I feel a plan brewing might just turbo standard engine run at low boost then pick up another 1*2 engine and rebuild that with forged internals when i have spare cash.

To be honest guys i would onky be looking to run around the 240bhp, but want it to be reliable as i usually do nurburgring once a year and will be doing more trackdays. Chip what management system would you recommend ?

An just looking at options mate, if i replace rods and pistons will i still need a megane head?

Its the only sensible thing to do with a clio!

Can someone tell me exactly what machining needs done to get a 225 engine block to fit the clio 1*2 gearbox, I have searched and found plenty reference to the work required but no definitive answer. Ideally come photos would be good too. Cheers

I am looking for some advice on track tyres, I have a 172 cup its standard at the minute i have only had the car a few months the tyre on have loads of life left in them but they are cheap tyres. We are going to the Nurburgring in September and a hope to do 1 or 2 track days before then, My...

If its not leaking externally, sounds like possible head gasket. Thats not to say that it isnt leaking externally and you just cant see a leak. Best bet is take it to a garage and get a pro to look at it!

I was 20 when i bought first 172FF, now 26 and just bought a 172CUP that need some TLC!

Sorry my bad, wasent to sure were to ask!
