I tried to keep it below 4.5 for the first 500 or so miles and then under 5k for for the rest of the running in mate.

That sounds good!

He was carrying some speed into Aremberg!

Who mapped the car?

Good question.. It didn't feel that much quicker at first, understandable as my 172 is totally stipped out and bloody rattley and noisy but now I can rev it out, and not worry about running it in it feels properly quick!

172 cup without a doubt.

I gave the M2 a good clean over the weekend, which included a coat of Auto Finesse spirit wax, but the sun has gone in since. And finally had the running in service done yesterday.. Only done around 70/80 miles since the RIS, and it's been pretty wet, but am very impressed, it's quick, and...

Itb's > boost imo.

I have a a quaife fitted to my 172, it's a good bit of kit. I have never driven a car with a M factory LSD, so can't comment on them.

That would make sense... but your E92 M3 is nice, makes a change to see one in Melbourne red mate.

Who is your local BMW dealership Jason? ATM the car is more of a weekend/ evening thing, as my daily is the Hilux, and my fiancé drives the Fabia vRS. But the M2 would make a great daily driver.

I'll bring it along to next South Central meet Pete.

No probs mate.

...And then sell it soon after ;) Cheers Dave.

I will do mate. Besides I still really enjoy doing track time in the Clio.

Hopefully just get some TF 'Ring laps if I take it over to the Nurburgring :) Cheers Andy. The 172 is already a sort of full on track car mate, as I have the Hilux, and Fabia VRS for daily duties. I plan on hopefully 'finishing' it which would consist of removing more weight adding...

No mate, I've had the Clio for 12 years now, and never plan on selling it. I still have quite a bit planned for it, including doing a lot more track days. Knowsit Danny ;) As above mate :smile:

Cheers guys. TBH I like all 4 colours that the M2 comes in, but mineral was always my favourite.

Back in April, I ordered my manual mineral grey M2 (with most option boxes ticked). It arrived Friday afternoon. Only done around 200 miles but so far am very impressed, the exhaust sounds great for stock system too A few pics, hopefully get some go pro footage in the week.

The F4R is a strong engine, and if looked after should go on and on. Once warm It gets driven very hard. Cheers Mark, the offset is ET43...the same as my white, and anthracite set

Cheers Ant :)

Update: The car is running well ATM (touches wood) and hit 158k the other week. The engine scare turned out to be a loose fuel rail guard lol. And the new crank sensor means it starts on the button again. I will hopefully have the unsilenced PMS centre section refitted soon too :)

Crank sensor can do this on it's way out.

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=3748 The above.. I bought my set up second hand, from a 172 cup that was being broken for around £100ish.

I had the PMS lightweight AC kit fitted. I changed it for the OEM 172 cup (AC removed) setup, which imo is much better.

LSD, mine made a big improvement on my 172. Not sure you'll get one for under 1k though.

Looks good mate.

I'm going. Not sure I'll be taking the Clio though.

To fit the PMS gearbox mount, you have to relocate the battery.

As above depends on budget. I really rate my Recaro SPG's.
