How do fitting Brembo's compare to standard good condition calipers & DS1.11s? @George@RTR_Parts

If only @jenic at followed it for 5 years, we'd know where it was

Don't believe it myself.

Depends on the type, the ones in our locker room have the numbers printed on the lock. So, I can go on eBay and buy a spare key to them.

Sounds opportunistic then

How can it be though, ok the guy accepts on the FB group that he'll be at the karting. The thief would have to be there to see that locker he uses and have a key or make him use a certain locker.

They ignored the wallet & mobile in the locker, the keys to 2 RS 200s and took the RB keys

Not going to Nottingham

Hi @RS Charlie I did 8 track days with the cup shocks and cooksports and it was fine, I've gone for B14s now but been told they are no better than the Cup shocks and Cooksports. I've not tried the B14s on track yet, but if it's true then I'll use them until a set of second hand ASTs come up.

@DTM888 I just checked and my 52 plate 172 Cup owes me £7,900. I'd strip it, perspex windows, buckets & cage. I'd leave the a/c in as I miss mine in the summer.

Stop there, that's a good point to stop. When you get to over 5k, you know the cheap track car has gone slightly wrong :)

No, don't look them up, you'll buy one, then you'll end up like me where your steering wheel & gearstick cost 1/3 of the car. Then, your wife will find the spreadsheet of Clio costs and she won't be your friend, and she'll say things like "I think you've had your Christmas present" Possibly.

I'd take it to your local specialist and get it checked, belt failure is an engine killer so they can check things have been changed at the same time as checking the timing.

Standard 172 Cup. God, I miss that car, only a few more weeks to go!

@RichieJA if the belts aren't done by a specialist then a lot of these cars have the timing out so are down on power. Worth checking who last did the belts and if it wasn't your local specialist having the timing checked.

I know @imprezaworks has had a few but surely not hundreds ;) Although it'll probably be there by the end of 2016

Don't take it to Surrey, as Charlie said, they "only make 160-170bhp". Then mine ran 176bhp and he said it was a freak :(

Just get Renault ones, £70 for both. If you want to spend £110, I'll send you a full set of Cup shocks that have seen little mileage

I've just taken off Cup Shocks & Cooksports and they were good on track, I've gone for budget coilovers B14s as I've blown the budget elsewhere - I've heard the B14s aren't so good on track so I may need to change them quicker than expected

On run 1 it runs less power at the wheels than run 2, but in run 2 it makes more power at the fly than run 1. How does that happen?

Beaniesport in Milton Keynes any good for you?

I got mine to getting the subframe down, and got stuck as the captive nuts spin. If this happens to you, pull out the arch liners and you can access them all.

It's been in parts since 20th November having a load of work done to it ready for track day on 27th Feb, will just move it from Specialist to specialist until then :smile:

I'd love to but not going to see my car again until February I guess atm

Surely the answer here is for @ADS1982 to go on the rolling road at EFI?

Had me confused when the renewal came through, called up "the accident was decided that it was not you fault" in broken Indian. Oooookaaay

My wife was looking at the cat and reversed into our parked neighbour. We didn't lose our NCB :)

@Davyy - Yeah

@bloke did yesterday with just the inlet, looking at the graph it's got the exact same torque line as the RS2
