Car  Citroen Xantia
Hey Guys, I'm in the process of saving up for my first Clio, gonna get a 172 cup.....

As inspiration Any High Quality pics of your lovely cups would be greatly appreciated, and before anyone says, yes I have tried google, yes I have searched the forum, and without much luck so don't waste your own time by typing me a standard "Try Searching" response. Anyone else who is willing to help fuel my Clio obsession though.... I thank you very much!!!

gives me 500 extra bhp;) Its the hid light ballasts mate :) as for coilovers i dont have that sort of money to be spending rite now, still saving for side mounted bucket seats :D
 
You guy's have some lovely cars!! I like how they all have little personal touches, like the door bullets!

Day..... Yours looks very nice, How much is she lowered by? Is it just springs or is she on Coilovers? How do you guys find that lowering your cups effects the handling? Does it improve it??? I know lower center of gravity etc, but renault are said to have had it pretty sorted in the forst place. In no doubt that the cup looks so nice lowered though!
 
My 40mm lowering springs have not affected the cornering/handling what so ever, if anything the cup doesnt body roll so much now, just my opinion on my car tho, everyone has different views:)

Do you not find small bump ride hard? Interior developed new rattles?

Agree the cup doesnt handle as bad as people say on apex, better than sportlines infact... :eek:
 
There was a cup with Brembo's, cage, stripped that was about the best i've ever seen!

Gaz's old one was up ther with the best too. Cups look great just lowered.
