    Would you worry about these things on a track day?

    Buy a set of 2nd hand OZ F1s part worn tyres for track? Then purchase the cheaper option 15" tyres for future trackdays

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Fitted new Alpine speakers in the front doors as the passenger side speaker was damaged, will change the rear speakers in the next couple of weeks for the same Alpine speakers too

    £600 to spend. Anything better than Koni and Eibach.

    I've mentioned this in another thead that with the 60mm cup fitment there are no middle road priced coilover kits. You either buy V Maxx/K Tec, then to the other end of the spectrum with Spax, H&R, AST. At least with the 54mm fitment you have more options up the price range, IMO for £500-£600...

    I'd imagine the Spax RSX kit costs much more than the FK setup. IIRC pre the big discounts from many retailers the SPAX kits were about £799. Without a doubt I would have ordered another set of FKs but the RB has 60mm 'cup' hubs

    FK Konigsports coilover kit, for the price they're spot on with adjustable damping, ride height, camber. Dampers are by Koni I had a set new on the white track 172, brilliant..

    What would you do?

    James Trophy in the classifieds looks a decent buy/price, almost tempted to sell mine for it

    Matched Inlets

    A friend of mine has the phs2 top inlet modified to accept the phs1 throttle body to allow cable throttle, also running Omex

    AFAIK the ET43 offset was down to the cup race cars being so low it sat the wheels inside the arches more (pub talk?) I believe they come in ET38 too, I wanted to fill out the arches that little bit, it doesn't rub.

    RB, New Wheels, New Pics

    Really, really appreciate all the comments :o :) Its riding on the Spax RSX coilovers, wheels are ET43, 15mm spacers up front, 5mm rear spacers and geometry set up by Code Red Motorsport. Just so happy how the Clio has turned out over the last 4-5 months. To be honest there's not much more I...

    RB, New Wheels, New Pics

    Ok, i did a deal with club member JamesT87 and picked these up yesterday. I decided even though i liked to the look of the white Trophy Turinis i didnt want to run on 16s, the Primer coloured OZ F1s were always going to be slaggy track wheels and prefered the 15" ride. There was only 1 option in...

    North Weald Sprint Pics

    Its a timing strut, at the start and finish line there's a beam in which the black strut 'cuts' through. On the day everyone has 2 practice runs and 4 official runs that are timed, every car has 1 fitted

    How much would you pay for these?

    I bought a new set about 4 years ago, IMO they suit the Odyssey blue well

    North Weald Sprint Pics

    My friend drove his phs1 Clio 172 in the North Weald sprint today, midweek i asked if he'd fancy taking mine for a run out too. My camera was took rubbish to take 'action' shots but they had an official photograher there so hopefully there might be some pics coming my way soon. RB 002 by...

    Receipts - am i sad?

    I'm exactly the same, I file all the invoices (mainly Renault dealer) in date order, I keep the service and MOT slips separate to parts invoices BUT keep them all in 1 folder. I have a draw dedicated to all my paperwork i.e credit card, bank statements in separated labelled folders so I know if...

    Carbon Bullets...... Fitted

    So white Turinis and OE bullets makes this RB 1 of THE best or if not THE best Clio on the site? It seems like i can't stray from what it was like when i bought it, as it is well known in the club for soo many years in its white turini setup. I'm not fussed, it's nice/interesting to read peoples...

    Carbon Bullets...... Fitted

    By changing wheels and bullets?

    Carbon Bullets...... Fitted

    Cheers, I know.... I couldn't believe I just missed out on the fogs :o Hence making sure I bought these instead

    Carbon Bullets...... Fitted

    They're superglued on with sealant as well. Its a 2 part adhesive that goes off within seconds, fingers crossed they stay on. I dont leave it anywhere unseen so it should hopefully be ok

    Carbon Bullets...... Fitted

    Took the plunge and fitted these this evening, i really wanted these as the details are raised and not decals. So when a set came up for sale i had to buy them :) Now toying with a carbon rear insert to match the front splitter. WP_001093 by Ricard o1, on Flickr WP_001119 by Ricard o1, on...

    Does No One Wave / Flash Back?

    On my way home from work today (Southend bound A127) I actually drove past another RB 182 with a Cliosport sticker on the tailgate glass. I thought what the heck I'll wave ( in the coolest way possible) to acknowledge the fact I've seen the car, in the club too type thing. I didn't look long...

    Roll Caged 172 Cup

    IMO hiding the fact it's an non FIA, MSA approved quality cage with a sticker from a respected roll cage company. "Aaaah so you bought your cage from SD" "Erm......... Yeah... No...... Looks good dunnit" Its not a Safety Devices cage so IMO they shouldn't be on there Yes, it looks good, but...

    Best Adhesive For Carbon Bullets? Options inside

    Did a basic Cliosprt search and found 2 options Sikaflex 291 Marine Sealant http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SIKAFLEX-291i-ADHESIVE-SEALANT-YACHT-BOAT-MARINE-WHITE-/370602000820?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_BoatEquipment_Accessories_SM&hash=item564999c1b4 Tiger Seal...

    Roll Caged 172 Cup

    LOL naughty, i thought you'd be proud to say it was the reasonably priced cage from the cage thread :D

    Roll Caged 172 Cup

    Are they Safety Devices stickers on that cage??
  29. Ricardos

    Clean 172 cup.

    Do love a 172 Cup, this is super clean. Looks great without the front plate on, like out the factory :)
