I had both caliper's replaced last year, then last weeks MOT was same as you described on passenger side, so caliper replaced again, had only done 1000miles

where's best to buy them, thats the pads im looking to get, best i found was £116, think that was from ebc direct

As above, where do you guys but parts such as powerflex bushes,steering wheels boss,seats,suspension etc,etc?:S

Evening, I've had a quote by a specialist to have the timing belt kit, dephaser, Aux belt kit and water pump changed, all new renault parts with one year guarantee for £600 all in, is that any good or a bit steep? its on a 172 cup, any other things recommended to be changed prior to be abused...

im interested in this also, was looking at Syron Race 1 Plus as the reviews seem good aswell as the price, £49 each

i sold a car very cheap £500 a few years back, was worth 4 x that amount in parts easy, thing is i needed it gone asap as it had to be moved and i had nowhere to store it, so could be legit but just buy with caution/common sense

got a link for the mats dan?

another thing overlooked is the thermostat, i had one fail on a renault many years ago and melted the engine

I've been looking for a while also, they seem to go for around 300 if in good condition, anyone got one spare cup turini please PM me, thanks

Anyone know if a Renault 5 turbo (1990 raider) steering wheel would fit on a clio 172 cup?

If it does chip, when it gets noticeably bad, take off, sand chips, respray. I did mine again the other week, it took about an hr, spraying the grills is one of the best mods to make your car look newer/fresher/cleaner imo. where do you get these number plates in that size, any links? Gloss...

i've heard off people using a heat gun to get them back to original colour then keep it treated, aint done it but sure something would be on youtube

I'm curious also, So on a standard 172 with an exhaust what is a realistic figure, how much do they cost fully fitted and where do you get them, guessing you have to get the car mapped, again what's the cost, thanks

Evening all, I'm looking to get new suspension for my new track car (172 cup) but ain't sure what to get, don't have an endless pit of money so was thinking would cooksport springs and new cup shocks be any good, I'm looking to put on solid top mounts and a front strut brace, plans are to change...

Yeah cheers, i'll look into it when i get home at the end of month for prices etc, its a fair toy you've got there, looks nice inside also, i did mention to my mate that it was a nice track car with the tidy steering wheel/seats etc, is it caged? infact you drove past us at the end off the long...

think i had a look at your car at the weekend, does it have four pots (willwood) i think they were?

im from mintlaw, my dads mate is a good mechanic so will see him if hes got the tools, if not i could hire them from you or something, dont know when funds will allow it to happen though..hopefully soon, its taxed till november so would like to have it done so i could take it out before the...

cheers lads, in yes i know but whats done is done so she'll have to put up with it :rasp: i will be in touch at the end of the year regarding brakes, thanks again

was there most off the day on sunday, had a quick look round most of the clio's when parked up also, had a little mishap on the way home and bought a 172cup so as off next year there will be another newbie joining you guys on the track, its gonna be a first for me but cant wait to stuck in, i've...

Evening folks, As the thread title suggests, yes i've gone and done what i have been meaning to do for quite a while and bought a clio 172 cup for a start into track days, its got low mileage and a few new parts fitted, aswell as some 'uprated' parts also such as exhaust, suspension kit, and an...

cheers for the positive comments, i'll keep looking around for the perfect base, will probably buy one once i get my payrise later this year, another 14k a year FTW ;)

Thanks again for all the advice, im defo gonna go for a 172 cup, its gonna be a long term thing over many years, which will get modified every year bit by bit, its something i've always wanted to do and now i finally can, although just bought a new house, booked a holiday in away to have a baby...

whatever, go do the dishes or something

regarding fiat man

so if i did buy a 182 and remove the gubbins (abs etc), which i would be doing anyway there basiclly the same, also is there any difference in the suspension between the cup and non cup version, what is the overall difference from buying a cup to a non cup? its just that 182 in the non cup...

well thats one thing i do hate is abs when driving hard, noticed the prices also which are coming down, but trying to find a good low millege one which hasnt been abused isnt so easy, hoping to buy one after summer once i've sold the honda and got the gf a new motor, money,money,money lol

but why? is the 182 not just the same with more power ie diff exhaust?

well if it was me there would be revenge, gonna cost you a bit to sort it out dude, and imo that cars been singled out for one reason or another, women/jealousy etc, on another note sell it to me cheap for a track car :)

just noticed the buyers guide, ill print it off and have a look :)

Hi folks, i've been on here a while just browsing checking out projects etc, im after some advice on wheres best to start re-guarding my future track car, not sure whether to go for a 172 cup or a 182? does the 182 come in cup form also? im after a standard phase two with low miles. had a look...
