cheers matey :)
yep, done a search n 172ff and cup spacing is the same apparently... its the 182's that differ
was going to go with standard cup springs.. but these prolines came up at a good price lol!
Not forsale to general public just yet lol.. work mate has first dibs, depends if we can agree a price
Anyhow... back on topic..
SOMEBODY must have an opinion lol ;)
Currently purchasing new dampers for my 02 172
Have brand new genuine rears
Do i just go for genuine 172 fronts, or should i go for cup ones? Same price so is it worthwhile?
Currently got koni adjustable... dont like them at all :mad:
Springs will be prolines if it makes any odds
Cheers
so more wear on the inside than outside of the rear tyres is normal then? By more wear, i mean on mine i got 5mm outside, 3mm inside...not like tyres are 8mm outside and bald on the inside lol!
cheers Fred
ive brought one.... however, from the few pictures ive seen you posted of the pulley locking tool.. and the 182 cambelt guide... it doesnt look the same. Do you have a pic of one as it sits in the box new?
Anywhere... iirc the bulb code is D2S :)

Those i got... ds2000's ,old name for DS performance..... £45! Ktec sell them for double that.... and the D2500's are even dearer LOL
Yes i know DS2500's are a better pad, but i couldnt justify £100+ on pads for a road car!
A full set of genuine renault dampers is about £200.... look on ktec's site :)

Oh.. and its only the fronts that are different... rears are the same
no point on uprated pads in the rear of a clio... they hardly do owt... standard discs n pads FTW
the brembo shop do brembo hc's at £45 DELIVERED for the pair... thats less than a local factors quoted for s**t discs!
and i got some of these...
exactly!
Remember back to Marcs Gronholm afew years ago... was leading a rally, and on a corner pulled 2 or 3 360's then continued to win....
they can all do it... not all can be fast at the same time
Sounds just like mine.... anything over 50 feels dangerous
Mine has koni adjustables, were wound right up hard when i got it. Used to hit a bump and go airbourne :S Im thinking about sacking them off in favour of a set of genuine dampers and springs.
In regard to setting up the adjustables...
;)
