I guess nobody has ever used them with these wheels..:unsure:

Here's my cup dedicated track car. Although I've just picked up a ph1 to go to town on.

Old thread bump. Did youanage to retro fit a cam sensor? I'm nowlooking to do the same. Thanks

I think this was at Anglesey track day today. ?

Looking great Scott. What Spring rates are you using? Sorry if I missed it in the thread.

Hello, Has anyone run the Compbrake 295mm 4pot setup with OZ f1s and Speedline 2118? If so do you have any picture's? I'm just trying to find out if they clear. Thanks

Mine in action during a wet Anglesey.

I'm going through the same now. I've ordered a pair of proline rears slightly longer to go from the bias valve to the calipers for a cup. I can update with pictures once they arrive.

I'm also going through simular motions/thoughts but luckily have an older license. I'm interested to see other peoples tow cars and trailers. Mine would need to be a daily and ideally have reasonable economy. From the research I've done everything with a decent towing capacity, has poor...

My track rat cup

Thanks for your help Mark.

I see, like the old tapered wheel bearings. Thanks

Yes preload for the diff bearings. Many thanks for any assistance.

Hi all, I'm fitting a LSD. Undecided between the Mfactory or Quaife at the moment. Can anyone advise me on what the diff preload setting should be? Many thanks.

Fair point. It helps it look a little less rusty

Hoffman off ebay. I went through a simular process. I built myself a 2.5"exhaust 2 boxes, I used the biggest boxes I could fit. It was so noisey. So I bought a stock 2.25 system. Link below, its light, much better quality than the original stock exhaust which actually went down below 2" on one...

Looks a great project. The old thread was a good a good read. Im also based in Northampton, can you recommend anyone cheap to fit tyres? I'm getting through them at an alarming rate with track days.

Great work Scott, Pictures look great. Hopefully bump into at a track day in the future. It'll be good around the car.

Inspirational thread @Tomotek I was looking through some of the pictures and thought to myself I recognise that guy. I believe i worked with you at Mercedes (Gareth from R&D). I have a cup i use for track days, I didn't realise you had this. Anyway great work, its unusual for a designer to get...

I just missed out on some lightly used ZZR and so ended up buying new AR-1's, I currently have r888r fitted, my next track day is on the 7th if the weather is good I should be able to report back some feedback

Choosing tyres is a mindfeild. There all in pretty much the same price bracket at the moment too.

That's interesting. I hadn't considered Avons. I've found some A048 only slightly more expensive then r888r too.

Yeah I understand what your saying, I normally stay well away from Nankangs. I'm on R888R at the moment, so maybe I'll play it safe and get those again.

Bump this thread up, Does anyone have anymore feedback on the AR-1 Vs R888R? The R888R seemed to be slightly cheaper at the moment.

Very nice, was this graph with standard 172 timing? or optimised secret 197 timing? Thanks

Show me some? All the ones I have found have been very small bore longlife crap. Or single box systems. Neither meet my requirements. I already had half the parts. So it cost considerable less then a 2nd hand one. For me part of the fun is doing these things yourself.

Hi. I have some exhaust questions I could do with some advice on. I have built my own 172 cup exhaust, I wanted it to be free flowing, low budget, and quiet. It's 2.5" and two boxes. The mid box is as long as the tunnel to try and keep the noise down. I tig welded it, made some mounts up and was...
