    My Clio tce

    The high pressure air at the windscreen will not cause the engine air to magically jump out. It will be sucked down the bulkhead by the low pressure running under the car. Save your washers.

    My day at cadwell 21.10.12

    Might see you there then. All depends on my wife TBF. She did see me nearly crying when I couldn't get any laps on Sunday - maybe she will take pity. It goes ok on the roads - not thrashed it within an inch of its life on track yet. Hope you have a fire extinguisher, to help out, just in...

    Yeah it was Len_beach's. Which in turn is my old Clio. We'd been to Blyton and he gave me a lift home and back to the pub.

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    There's no lever. Cups don't have them. He added one, but removed it again after it did jack all. As the Swedish man said there is a manual adjustment. The locking nut is solid yet the Allen key thing can move. Tried it fully up and fully out - no difference. With the nut being stuck it has to...

    V-maxx Coilovers

    The guy before me fitted the coilovers to mine, but its evident 'some' of the front arch lining has been 'trimmed'. Depends how low you've gone. Pic of the bracket?

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    It's hardly any lower to be fair.

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    Tried it. It's as if the block/box thing is faulty. Using the Allen key or lever makes zero difference! Is there a way of blanking or disabling the rear brakes? Even pikey style?

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    Right, New caliper - same thing. Wound the Allen key thing on the compensator and same thing. Track day is tomorrow. How can we just turn off the rears?!

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    No, it's defo a cup. He lowered it at the rear and coincidentally the rear is wanting to spin round. He added the required parts from a normal clio, thinking it would sort it.

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    The arm is there, but there is no spring adjustment - it appears some cups are hit and miss if they have them. He bought the parts and put them on anyway - but it has made absolutely no difference before and after - which to me says that is ok and its gotta be a sticky caliper.

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    Its obviously braking ok to the rears - as they both are somewhat effective. but just that one side is silly. Gotta be the caliper, surely....

    Will try in the morning mate - times running out, track day on Sunday! :( Thanks for the idea.

    Urgent advice required - 172 Cup rear brakes

    My mate has a 172 cup. It has developed a tendancy to lock the rear brakes. In particular the drivers side rear - wants to overtake you when stamping hard. He checked to see if there is a brak compensator, but it looks like the cups don't have one. When he took the wheels off, one of the...
