    Bilstein B14 vs Cup shocks + H&R

    I’ve got a set of Cooksport springs (early top mount) if intrested? Was happy with this set up on cup dampers but the front dampers started leaking so I got coilovers.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Got a sweet deal on some brand new 8J cup racer Speedline’s, has them wrap in 225/45 Michelin Cup 2’s. Still managed to retain my 19mm spacers so well chuffed!

    Speed Academy have been doing a decent E46 M3 J2Z build recently, STi and Evo 6 too.

    Wheel spacers

    Yes all up to date. Service every 5k miles and I always change gearbox oil too.

    Wheel spacers

    Yes no problem.

    Wheel spacers

    If you’re using the car for track Steve, I suggest the best thing to do if it hasn’t been done already is polybush all the engine and gearbox mounts. This made a big difference for me, however you do get more vibration through the car.

    Wheel spacers

    I run 19mm hubcentric front and back with a long stud and nut kit. Never had a problem.

    Fresh brakes and good tyres and these things will run on track all day.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Had a great day, it was very greasy this morning and kept loosing the back end in turn it. Once it dried set the front 6 for hard and the rear 12. The car felt much better, and the drive home on this setting wasn’t to bad at all. Need do some fast road driving to complete the picture but happy...

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Yeah, a mates got Meister R’s on his Civic and they look very similar.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Arrived and on. Just had the geo done and all good. Haven’t driven it apart from to the garage, not sure what to expect but less harsh than my Cooksport springs with cup dampers. Track day at Bedford tomorrow so will mess about with damping then.

    Guess it’s a hot one?

    Maybe, just pissed off it’s gone up!

    Clio insurance

    Who are you guys insured with? Just had a renewal quote from Esure and it’s gone up £50 (£295). It’s a MK3 200 and I’m 36. It’s a garaged second car and I do about 5k miles a year. No claims or convictions.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    That’s a very kind off mate but I’m down in Swindon so quite a journey. Look forward to your thoughts once you’ve fitted them! I’ve been given a lead time of 2/3 weeks.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Will do mate, not driven a 197/200 on coilovers, maybe a good opportunity to have a car meet up? They got a pretty good spec on them, just hope the quality is there!

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    I’ve decided to give these a go and have ordered a set through Ktec as they have an offer on at the moment.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Yes they do seem good value, my front shock is leaking and was looking at B14s. I do about 80% fun road driving and 20% track.

    Yellow Speed coilovers

    Thoughts of these for MK3 RS? Can’t see any reviews online (Honda boys seem to like them), are they new for the Clio?

    Roadstar hot hatch meet

    Yep, should be up for this.

    Hi new to the forum french car enthusiast dilemma

    Decent enough 182 with cup packs or a rough 197 for that budget I’d say.

    Small favour from the clio collective.

    Subscribe on YouTube, I’m not on Facebook or insta though.

    Loud exhaust question.

    Seen people stuff wire wool up the exhaust tips on track to past noise limits. Not sure this would work as a permanent solution mind.

    Just get Laguna Silverstones and save yourself a few quid.

    All 197/200’s on the forum. Get in here!

    Never understood the obsession with Speedlines. They are a fair bit heavier than the standard 200 wheels so what’s the point!

    Trickle charger

    After one that can do two vehicles at the same time (Camper outside & Clio garaged). Any recommendations guys?

    Picking a good Clio 200?

    Red Brembo’s are cup chassis cars. But to be certain you’d need to look at the front springs as cup springs have a orange and blue mark on then.
