    Clio 172 Cup- Track Car

    I would be better reading a Japanese encyclopedia it would make more sense than that book, I just look at the pictures. :) Don't cut the pull handle fixings where the tapered head long 6mm bolt goes when you do it Fraser, it will make it easier.

    CV joints

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the Clio shafts are pretty good from what I have seen, they seem to be better than most other cars. Something Renault got right. You see a lot of folk requesting new shafts now but a lot of these cars are up to 100-150k which is pretty good afaik. I know I...

    Team Djw's Dedicated Track Toy Project: Update Post 167. New pics page 6

    Re: Team Djw's Dedicated Track Toy Project Looks good. What colour is it going lads? Was the ph1 front end much to do, bits grounded off, pieces welded on?

    A couple questions about 172 cup driveshafts

    A few millimetres (naff all) different in length from the the research I done ages ago. I have a feeling they're the same shaft as with most manufactures parts are shared and brought forward to new models 'if it ain't broke why fix it' They are the longest 23 spline inside/outside shafts...

    Stunning car I just couldn't live with the yellow, if it was another colour I would but your arm off. Good luck with the sale.

    Bad oil leak when trying to fire up !

    Are you sure, Adam quoted me that unless he got mixed up with the actual housing. How much are they out if interest Marc, I could be doing with another?

    A couple questions about 172 cup driveshafts

    Another route to try is a scenic mk1 2.0rt shaft as they are pretty much the same in spec if not the same length and it would explain the ABS rings.

    Bad oil leak when trying to fire up !

    Jesus!!!!!! Check you haven't mixed oil and water also as there is both oil and water galleries sealed by the thermostat housing. Iirc that gasket is something stupid like £35

    frazjam's Ph1 172

    I hope I'm wrong as its ideal but I seem to remember it needing to be tubing and from the sill to the exhaust/gearbox tunnel. Motorsport UK and Demon Tweeks sell the kits. I couldnt say where in that bloody book, I try not to look at it. I just ask scruts and keep my eyes open at Knockhill.

    frazjam's Ph1 172

    That's a real simple idea Gaz, I don't think it will ever pass for any MSA event, the seat fixings have to be tubes of a certain wall thickness and CDS iirc.

    just changed my cambelt, adjusting timing did I do the right thing?

    As long as you have the right end result (as you sound to have) after pulley torquing and spinning over a good few times then its a job jobbed.

    wheels catching the wheel arches ?

    16" will catch on a low car but check your offsets as said.

    frazjam's Ph1 172

    Good stuff on the loom but are you putting a test on it. you'll need a working h/brake light. Go easy on the the seat rails, you will be left with Swiss cheese for a floor, try get an extra long spot weld cutter too and it will be easy. I would advise to get motorsport-uk seat rails as they...

    Yanoo Stiff Shift Gearbox End

    I know it goes tight mate and that the selector rod fits through the lever fine. As said sand/file down the bush so essentially its making the bolt longer. Job jobbed. Also my bush came in two half's iirc?

    Caliper bleed nipple size

    M10x1.5 irrc but definately m10 by something.

    Yanoo Stiff Shift Gearbox End

    You have to sand or file down one side of the bush bit by bit as they're machined oversize to accommodate all gear linkages. Two minute job.

    Neutralizing body roll on a 172? help appreciated.

    What 172 cups aren't? A few was hinting or suggesting new shocks, its not going to get what he wants. With my camera dash mounted the roll is comical.

    197 brembos on a 182 conversion questions

    Yeah I can't help but they're spacious as said, a lot smaller step inside than F1's and 2118's have. The spoke bows out too to accommodate the calliper with big offsets.

    197 brembos on a 182 conversion questions

    I meant to say ATS DTC's, used by a lot if the fiesta ST championships. Nice strong wheels supposedly despite the looks.

    197 brembos on a 182 conversion questions

    My mate has 305mm disks and ap 5110's iirc with somewhere around an et30 offset. Look the b****cks on his mk1 golf but I'm not sure they would on a Clio, nor your later choice.

    197 brembos on a 182 conversion questions

    ATS cups are spacious. EDIT: OP, I tried a few and with your offset (if all 2118's have the same inside profile) you would get away with 10mm spacers, probably best to get 16mm as they're the smallest hubcentrics to fit iirc. post 26...

    Neutralizing body roll on a 172? help appreciated.

    I agree with this having totally refreshed my last track cup suspension and steering wise with Eibach sportlines, RARB and an aggressive geo along with all new steering and suspension consumables at once. Although it was fun and playful and easy to control when it slid you soon find its limits...
