    Mk2 Clio Lowering spring suggestions?? 40mm? 60mm?

    Try Euro car parts for AMAX springs, I had no issues with them on road or track and with ECP's discount code got them for £30.

    Mk2 Clio Lowering spring suggestions?? 40mm? 60mm?

    You may need shorter shocks if going with 60mm as it'll be riding near the bump stops on standard shocks, therefore 40mm IMO would be best.

    Will a Focus pull a car and trailer? My Mondeo ST TDCI would struggle with a my Clio and decent trailer if uktow.com is correct, recommended tow weight for mine is only 1255kg at 85% of the cars kerbweight (recommended). http://www.uktow.com/towing%20capacity.asp

    Wow my 300hp/300ft/lb 6MPS got a real world 25mpg.

    ABs /ESP lights

    Strange one then, only thing I can think as Bash mentioned above is maybe the spacer went on the wrong way around but I've done this before and it just crunched when tightening it back up and shattered the ring. And just to add those snap-on diagnostic readers aren't very good on the older...

    ABs /ESP lights

    So the rear spacers where refitted from the old discs as MTEC don't supply these with their rear discs last time I purchased a set. Oh and I meant blueprint rear ABS sensors not discs don't work :smile:

    ABs /ESP lights

    If you've fitted the rear spacer correctly check the ABS connectors making sure you haven't pulled one, also check the connector by the passenger A-frame underneath the car. If still no joy check the rear rings are seated properly and give the sensors a spray with contact cleaner. Also did you...

    A nice drive in the snow.

    Ouch at 23mpg, getting more than double that now in the Mondeo ST TDCI and doing near 15k miles a year I think I'd need to look at the 330d diesel.

    Ps3’s‘Not As Good As The Hype?’

    Which has the better wet grip? I found the RS3's very good new but once half worn really tailed off in the wet, that was with 15" and 18" wheels.

    Would love something like this as a daily runabout. What MPG are you seeing and auto or manual?

    Aftermarket centre section with standard back boxes 182

    Just get the Scorpion non resonated centre section (545RN) and fit, should be a straight swap. http://www.rs192.co.uk/systems

    NUTS AND BOLTS

    Just get a load of M6, M8, M10 & maybe some M12's. Not many imperial that I've come across but someone more informed will be along shortly.

    Could be shite, don't see the 100s anywhere though in 15s.

    Was told by Ears yesterday that Nankang no longer supply the ns2r in 100 or 120 compounds.

    It would be horrendous to drive anywhere but on a ultra smooth dry race track, honestly don't see the point of road cars like these. Its not even like its got unique styling or state of the art tech.

    Noble M600

    Looks like it was made in a shed with all that tacky honeycomb plastic....and at £300k+ C'mon! Who would honestly choose this over a Ferrari or Lambo.

    Red 197 / Crashed in Bradford - east parade 4pm

    You'd think that the goon would be keeping a low profile not running red lights with no insurance. Nothing surprises me these day on UK roads though, I absolutely despise driving on the road these days!

    New car for the summer...... oh s*** wrong season.

    Lovely looking car but I just couldn't be seen in anything convertible, as no one wants to see my ugly kite being mashed by the elements!

    show me your car/trailer setup?

    If you're post 1997 you wont be able to tow a Clio no doubt as I found out the hard way when I went to collect a hire trailer, lol.

    What's your budget mate and how many do you need? Got my eye on a few on eBay all the time.

    Reasonably priced track tyres

    ..but not to soft as they go off far to easily. I'd say a treadware of 50-80 is a happy medium. Those Avon ZZS I had on at Oulton wouldn't even do a full lap before becoming greasy, they're a treadware of 20 which is more of a wet tyre rating.

    Reasonably priced track tyres

    Bit contradictory the text isn't it, think they're 100 though as I've seen them before from Ears. The 100's will be pretty good and I remember someone using them at Oulton one day and he rated them but said they wear fast.

    Reasonably priced track tyres

    As above used track tyres can be a real bargain, but IME can also be hit and miss regarding age and usability. I've had some 17 years old, some that have had bead damage so where not safe to fit, but most have been fine and I've never bought a new track tyre. Always ask for the DOT code...
