DS2500 eat £120 brembo max grooved discs, do bare in mind i had more than enough power, no brake fade, Just the pad gave up on life, Braided lines & castrol super dot 4 response are in the system, did over 4 hours of driving with no brake issues at all
Nice, the blocks really can take some serious milage if looked after, Went and test drove a Flamer PH1 172 with 190,000 miles on the clock.. engine pulled well, rest of the car was dog :dead: lol
James
Thank you for the interest Andy but at this moment in time we will not be able to offer a group buy on the re-maps, Have dropped you a pm :)
Thanks,
James
Thanks for the comments, always good to see what the rest of the public think, overall i'm very happy with the sat-nav mount, Came together really well & still retains a smart out the factory look, well as close as you can get with out cutting & moulding something in place
The brake cooling...
What message are you getting when you try Writting an RST.?
Normally when this happens or you load the wrong RST/CAL the ECU will need to be re-flashed/replaced
James
If your happy to have no cover in the event there was a problem, getting an ECU re-flashed/purchesed is not cheap, all has to be put into the price, if your happy to do it your self fastchip will sell you the kit :) we offer the service for those that have no interest in doing it them selfs in...
Nice work! looks like it could be a cracking little set-up that could still be driven daily, only draw backs, as said, its not going to be cheap + having the car off the road for the time its being worked on, could be even greater gains from a better induction set-up surely? plenty of bends...

This weeks new toy, Tomtom 730, old satnav gave up on life while driving round London, not impressed..
Ever since my first satnav i have hated mounting them on the window for that mini-cab look so a new smarter method was needed, better than my previous method which proved a...
No worrys, hope it helps, the plan was to finish it off with x2 70mm cold airfeeds straight down to below the headlight, but did take it for a cheeky test drive without the cold airfeeds :evil:

My old PH1 172 track car
Lay the ECU down on the gearbox side engine mount, you will need to remove all the casing etc, i never got it finished but the major work was done as you can see, sounded awesome :evil:

Usually get to carpark for 7pm, spend 20 minutes with chit chat waiting for the late ones lol, then have abit of food till 9pm odd than if weathers good and public votes yes for the evening a little drive takes place ;)
If you drop your name on the list, i will pm all on there with updates...
Would have been mine or the miss's black 172, Just drop me a Pm/email with what you need doing or just drop into our local meet for a chat if your around ;) - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=429346

looks really tidy, Do love the Iceburg PH1's only being 99 in the UK makes it a little special, My old one was great! Think i've seen yours around, GF lives just down the A41 near Watford
James
Does go well for a "Clio" :cool: Glad you enjoyed it, shame the weather wasnt the best when you were down, Coilovers in the dry is where the fun begins!
James
Good brake combo & cooling, Like Fred says, Get a morning with an instructor, Tom ( tompoms ) has shown me the light for how effective a lesson with some one who knows the track like the back of there hand is
James
Jack, I really wish i knew what issue you have with JMS, You have done your very best on a few occasions now to show us up, we are still looking into the rear height sensor, here is a picture taken in the past week of a 172 Cup's brake compensator
As you can see, Its not connected to the...
used over a full tank, have a full garage of folk + pictures for proof, was gonna show you pics at the next staines meet to claim my lovely £10 note, keep it warm for me Ivan ;)
Standard Renault road pads, really had more power than i needed, Tyres were letting me down more than anything, £55...
Indeed, Just wasnt expecting any thing like it, complete brake failure @ 125mph+, On the plus side, the brake ducts have worked a treat, been out in the car today and pedle feels fine, no spongy feed back so the brake fluid lives to see another day but it will be getting another flush next week...
Still un-known, Havent had any probs with the rear steping out since adjusting it, once i've got new brake discs/pads on and got them all run in i'll connect the arm back up ans see how it performs
Hope you enjoyed the read, has had a few quid spent on it lol, more than likely to have alot...
