Eibach or H&R.

TC stops the driven wheels from spinning (traffic light GP etc.) and ESP stabilizes your car by reducing power and selective breaking (to quick in teh twisteez, y0). But only until the limitations of physics (kind of useless if you know how do drive properly).

ESP is not traction control.

Not much quicker than a 1.2 16v Clio...

I think they are not locked. But make sure that they are the correct version ones for your car/ECU software.

First of all you'll need to plug the RSTuner in and look which software number your ECU is running. Then you send an email to Henk with your VIN and software version and ask for the correct RON98 performance cal and reprog license. I think 1*2 maps aren't available any more on fastchip.nl

Get the correct tyres then?

Physically they might fit. But they were not made for the weight of an F4R engine in the front. BTW: Eibachs shouldn't drop the car that much that you need more clearance in the winter. Never had problems with snow and coilovers ;)

Don't think so.

C&B's (which worked quite good afaik) 428s and 438s which didn't work that good.

Heatshield rattling/loose?

Possible. If you go the cam-route and decide to get more power later, you could always add an ITB setup.

corrected!

172s on 182 manifolds will not lose top end power. That's a myth on here. Imo it's worth to change it and it makes swapping cats/decats much easier. Nothing wrong with the bigger ports and the manifold as the manifold's bore is always bigger than the port bore.

Ragnotti is slightly different to the cup. Lighter, no rear wiper etc. Iirc the Ragnotti is the homologation model for the Group N Rallye cars.

About 300 quid for new synchros, bearings, a few bits and labour. Could be that they have reconditioned boxes on the shelf. You could give him a call, the phone number is somewhere floating around on the forum.

I'd always prefer a rebuild box over a used one in unknown condition. Don't you have gearbox specialists in italy? Had mine rebuilt by Agency Transmission in Worcester and it took about 2 days. Maybe you could arrange something with cliospares and Agency, that the used box gets straightly...

Camber on these is adjusted with OEM bolts/nuts and elongated upper holes on the strut.

Better get your flamesuit out. Heard you can't beat billies ;) Seriously: The adjustable FKs are really good (The non-adjustable aswell).

1st picture is really awesome! But: a cup is not a Ragnotti.

LOL, 90mm springs on standard shocks. Fuckin' mental.

Means these are not stainless steel. Rear adjuster on FKs like to seize but that's easily sorted with tons of WD40 or heat.

FK Königsports. Adjustable damping but not inox'd. Should be non cup packed fitment.

Ratios are not different. 172 ph1 boxes have a slightly longer final drive then ph2's and 182's boxes but will not cause any problems. If you need a quick, good and cheapish refurb call Agency Transmission in Worcester.

90mm is fukn low dude! looks s**t tbh

Same pump on all 1*2s. Cups have a different PAS line, pump is still the same afaik.

I've seen coilpack mounts that attach to the gearbox side of the cylinder head. TDF supplied them iirc.

Timing will be out if he did not use the tools. It's nearly impossible to get the timing correct with markings only as you can't tension the belt equally.

You're right. APs are nearly the same coilover but with a slightly softer damping.

That's what i thought.
