    Decat and ktec stealth... too loud for a daily driver?

    As said, I've been umming and arghing about whether to get a decat for the cup. Does anyone have this combination as a daily driver? Is it silly loud? mostly concerned about motorway speeds as the stealth on it's own is reasonably civil when you're cruising.

    Clio meet in Horsham / Crawley?

    So having just got my Clio, I guess it's time I get to know a few local people. Fancied a meet somewhere local, trying to think of places we can go where we're not going to look like a gaggle of chavs in a tesco car park. Suggestions for time / date / venue please!

    172 cup using LOADS of fuel....

    My car seems to be using a huge amount of fuel..... My speedo sensor broke last week, so could this be why? The trip says that I'm doing 8mpg.... but I'm guessing this is due to the speedo not working. I did a little test on it over the last couple of days, and it's doing about 16 / 17 mpg...

    Braided brake lines....

    My new disks and pads arrived this morning and I've decided I might as well replace the brake lines at the same time.... I've been doing some research and found a few threads on PH and various other places from people saying their goodridge hoses have inexplicably fallen apart in 18 months or...

    Who's is the blue clio with the white wheels pictured at the top of the page?

    The stance of this clio looks glorious, just wanted to know what you had on it :) I think it may be a 172 cup but I'm not very good at recognising differences yet.... may be RB... I don't know.

    Mintex disks. Any good?

    Anybody used mintex disks on a 1*2? I bought some with some ds2500 pads. Are they any good or should I turn them into a pretty place mat and buy some brembo's?

    Spare engine mounts?

    Does anyone have any old engine mounts that I could have / borrow? I need to replace mine but I want to see if I can make some instead. I just need to use them for a pattern as I can't afford to have my car off the road. Thanks everyone.

    I'm pretty certain my rear shocks are fucked... Pretty pissed tbh as I only bought the car a week ago and it wasn't mentioned. But there we go, where's the best place for me to get rear shocks from and how much are they going to cost me? It's for a 172 cup.

    After having my car for a week, I'm already struggling to listen to Radio1 all the time (it's the only radio station my HU will find for some reason?). But anyway, I used to know a fair bit about car audio stuff, did a bit of install work while I was at uni, but I'm well out of touch now. Can...

    another 'what's knocking?' thread.....

    Morning everyone, Just a quick question, I've just got my 172 cup, and it's making a knocking noise... It only happens at high rpm in 1st and 2nd gear, but on all road surfaces, cornering or straight. It sounds like an exhaust knocking, but it's difficult to tell where it's coming from when...

    Floor mounted pedal box?

    Has anyone ever done this? Is it relatively straight forward in a 172cup? I'm keen to change the driving position asap so im buying some ktec carbon bucket seats and I want floor mounted pedals (easier for heel/toe braking). Any and all advice welcome!
