That's a yes then...... bidding war on! :D I know painful aren't i, but had to ask incase i got stuck with them.

Mines gone, sounds like a taxi at idle

Hindsights a wonderful thing..... er perhaps i should have bought pre modified. How much mechanical know how did you have before embarking... what i'm getting at is for example could a numpty fit the KW coilovers?

Does anyone know if these will go in a Clio 172 Cup? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SPARCO-EVO-2-PLUS-SEAT-RALLY-RACE-/120608269667?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM#ht_500wt_1154

Hi Pretty much the same sort of thing i want to do next year...... http://clio-motorsport.blogspot.com/ anyone on here?

Cheers everyone, the car is going to Mark Fish next weekend for a once over, hopefully he can do this for me. After reading the post in another section where the poor fella spent £1200 with a garage in Newcastle and the engine went bang, i'm happy to pay a bit more at someone recommended

Oh c**k..... So my bargain wasn't such a bargain! £2300 + £600. 52 plate Clio Cup 72k miles

.. any idea's? At first i thought it sounded Tapetty but it's not it's chug chug chug with a bit of squeek (bit diesel engine rattly). Once you're off it's fine. (Difficult explaining a sound) It had a cambelt change about 10k ago, wondering if it's the other belt i read about that you should...

I got this for £2300 last week. Not minter but not bad either http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1921168.htm

Porkie, any reason for keeping the back seats in place, not that you shouldn't i've just noticed that most people remove them when adding the full cage

Hi Adrian Yours sounds a surprisingly similar story to mine, must be an Essex thing, i've got a well set up Elise with quite a few hp. I was at Brands last Tuesday sliding around all over the place in the wet and noticed that the cars having most fun were fwd hatches being wrung to an inch of...

Nice one, cheers mate, i'll definately come and have a look and it would be rude not to have a go in the others!!!

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi I think the best thing is just give it to Mark Fish Motorsport who have been recommended on another thread and get them to address any issue's....... Eibach Prolines seem to be likely then. Here it starts...

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi Yet another question, the car seems to sit quite a lot lower at the back than the front (clearance between tyre and wheel arch), is this normal or is something buggered?

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi The car has BF Goodrich g- force sport tyres on the front, seem to have reasonable write ups and on the back some crappy make I've never heard of

not sure that's a fair comment, I've driven some cars that are so track orientated that they are in effect race cars, if you take one down a bumpy country lane they can get out of shape because of the suspension, geo etc

The seats seem a bit rubbish, what do you lot tend to change them for?

I'm not at all bothered about changing the look it's purely about improving the driving experience, I want to use it a bit on track but not destroy the B road fun e.g I don't want it to fling me into a ditch on a good country road

Sorry I edited while you were posting I think

Hi all what's the general sequence of modding on these cars, I've got to get a new steering wheel because it's revolting, 4 tyres of the same would be good and changing the green stuff pads, then what eibachs and arb? Then the seats will probably have to be changed. Anything else that should be...

What do the kids say....... PMSL :D

I've just had a search, i was panic posting....... if it goes off again apparently you can open the car and get in passenger seat, lock using button on the dash then get out and lock car using key in passenger door, that way the alarm doesn't get set. Also read that water in the bonnet catch can...

Help!!!! Bought the car and brought the car home tonight and the alarm keeps going off, looked in the manual and it said to turn the key from on to off twice in 10 seconds, then get out and lock in 20 seconds This will turn off the motion sensor. i thought this might do it but it doesn't...

Err, i've got a spare wheel in the boot under the carpet, this isn't right is it, i read that in the cup this was omitted and you got tyre foam!??

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi Well I just drove it home, went a414 from Hertford to Billericay as the m25 was snarled up and I'm glad I did what a hoot! Really encourages being thrown around, it's a bit wierd 4th to 5th, and I still think...

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi I live in Billericay, Essex. I'll edit my profile

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi I'd love to come along, problem is i've got 4 days holiday left this year, one of the downfalls of working for a company not myself. i need to find some weekend one's, so much racing most circuits are booked...

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi I know of Sean, he's got the monster Audi Elise hasn't he? The car isn't for sale, but as they say everything's got its price ;) Ooooh, but modding is so much fun until you go to sell it! :D

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi Silly me..... i googled it and discovered exactly that!

Re: New to Forum, just put deposit down on 172 Cup, please help with couple of questi Probably a stupid question but if it's had the timing belt changed would it have had the cambelt done at the same time or are they sometimes done seperately? One other thing I noticed is there seemed to...
