What about Cup with aircon? Frustrated, there don't appear to be any comprehensive workshop manuals or Haynes manuals for these cars.

Are Spax RSX any good? Also, Apex springs?

I've been trying to find some pictures or drawings of the PAS hose and pipe routing on a 172 Cup. Does anyone have any links please? Knowing what Renault is like I can imagine their being several different set-ups. Is the 172 different to the 182, is Ph.1 different to phase 2. and does the...

Thanks chaps. Any specific wheels you'd recommend? Williams, Oz F1s etc?

Just looking at options for track wheels and tyres for a 172 Cup. Track tyres aren't available in a 195/45 16 as far as I can see. I've been looking at 195/50s instead. It occurred to me I could drop to a 15" rim instead, where track tyres are both cheap and plentiful. Any reason why this is a...

Interesting reading this, as someone who currently owns both. (I was googling for the Evo articles when this came up).

Thread resurrection! Is this a common fault? Mine was refusing to spit the CD out earlier. Not sure whether it's a one off or whether it will keep doing it?

Ah, OK. Thanks.

Sorry, who is Fred? ETA. Supersprint is twice the price of the K-Tec? I'm seeing £680+ shipping?

Looking at getting a new system for my 172 Cup. I don't want something ridiculously lairy, though a little louder than stock would be OK, and I also intend to do a few track days so I need to adhere to sound limits. Looking at the usual suspects like the K-Tec stealth, which has the added bonus...

Will there be any traders on site on the day (offering mega deals, obviously)?

Great info. Thanks chaps. Going to get it up in the air this week and have a poke about. Exhaust is shagged so I wouldn't rule that out, hadn't occurred to me it could be moving that much. Are the discs a straightforward swap with no fannying about caused by the bearings?

It's on a 172 so it's discs. Pads look OK. Only audible at low speed when off the throttle i.e. no other noise to drown it out. Will get it up in the air and yank it about a bit. Is it possible to change the wheel bearing only? Looking around it's a £10 part with one big nut and a circlip fixing it.

Can someone validate my diagnosis please? Rubbing/grinding noise from rear left wheel, increases with speed, gets worse when turning (in either direction). Nothing obvious rubbing. Wheel bearing?

Looks like the cheapest route is to buy the discs and pads from different places then? Where is the best place for DS2500s for a Ph.3 RS200?
