    BC Coilover Setup Help

    Then it needs servicing because it's a plate diff... it's great and by far the best product of its type for the JB/JC box but the cost won't suddenly make me a better or less aggressive driver and as it's not a competition car lap times aren't a driving constraint.

    BC Coilover Setup Help

    Jesus not you aswell! LOL Unfortunately I don't have that kind of money at the minute what with a holiday in April, a new workshop and the wife threatening another baby/house. I'm deffo going to squirrel some away though and may compromise on a Quaife if one turns up at the right price.

    200bhp in a 172?

    I'm deffo modifying my RS2 Chip as per today's discussion. Already spoken with the Engineer and CNC operator to make sure my design is okay and not mega money in materials alone. I also found some 70mm trumpets knocking around in the spares pile so why not eh Thanks for the call time to. If you...

    BC Coilover Setup Help

    Yeah i actually had more fun there than i thought i would. A properly quick little circuit, i was nearly touching 110 at Froids chasing Chi down in his R26. Glad to hear I'm not the only one that has issues there though... I blew my diff :-( #nemasis #circuit

    BC Coilover Setup Help

    The offer is there chap so just let me know if you want to drop in. Thinking about it I don't run front section arch liners as I run brake cooling ducts and divertor plates. I pushed it extremely hard at Blyton recently and not a single bit of scrub which surprised me as I expected some from the...

    Tyre sizes and traction warning light

    Aye that would be a good plan but if it does turn out the SAS isn't showing 0° at true center get the steering alignment corrected rather than recalibrate the SAS itself.

    Ah right - I assume you've played with damping rate to? If you want to pop down one weekend I'll gladly have a proper look for you as I'm running the same as you without any scrub issues.

    Tyre sizes and traction warning light

    The steering angle sensor has a 5% tolerance but this could be an issue yes... This is also why we'd normally advise a proper diagnostic session

    You can add a set of pre - load springs chap but aren't you running 205 tyres to?

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Looked at it sat there in the corner of the workshop and wished i could take it out for a Christmas blast (but diff broken) - so bought some AD08R's instead

    172 cup ad08 size?

    I know tyres-pnues.co.uk has stock of the AD08's in 15" but unsure of 16". Have used them before so don't be put off by them being in Germany because delivery is very swift.

    200bhp in a 172?

    I think with some serious fettling of the internals of the upper inlet plenum you could see the standard inlet flow a damn sight better but that is some work just to open it up, work the ports and then stich it back up again. I'm sure Mark said he'd flowed one recently and saw good results on...

    Lol - me to... couldn't wait

    172 cup ad08 size?

    Yeah, I think they possibly saw the RSR's as stealing the percentage of sales though so matched them on compound and dropped the price accordingly. A real shame for you boys though, agreed

    172 cup ad08 size?

    As per Jamie's post the AD08r is a new softer compound than the AD08 which is why the circuit boys cannot use them anymore as they're now classed as a 1B tyre. I have been doing some more research today in between plans to modify my RS2 further and I am now set on AD08r rubber.

    200bhp in a 172?

    Its not really a negative attitude renty its a realistic opinion. The cost is something that anyone who modifies a vehicle should be prepared to write-off really but what they're saying is that for the money the extra power will not be noticeable. Me and Nick172 had a similar conversation...

    Dephaser help??

    Whistling at higher RPM is usually due to the downpipe to CAT fire ring blowing in my experience. Of course, as above by Birchdown, on a Cup it could be an aux belt issue also and really needs looking at to say for sure.

    200bhp in a 172?

    I've currently got 196hp from Catcam 421's, RS2, PMS race system and a remap by RS Tuning. I'm planning on running extensions to increase the torque output but even these i feel won't push the peak (on a standard bottom end and valve train) past the magical 200 you seek... deffo need Jenvey...

    Clio 182 lumpy on tick over

    But is that a present fault or an historic fault? This is why CLIP is simply the best setup to put any Renault on as you can check each cylinder for missfires in real time to see if it's a genuine current fault.

    172 cup ad08 size?

    The cracking/splitting has never been a genuine concern to me as they seem to wear thru it but I currently have PE2's which have next to no side wall strength so roll pretty easily so this is what I'm trying to resolve with tyres for this year's playtime. I've seen the AD08 walls and they are...

    172 cup ad08 size?

    I'm weighing them up myself: AD08's vs RSR's and for £44 difference I am truly stumped.

    New to here this is my clio bought a few months ago!..

    No, I mean there are items on eBay or you could remove your broken bolts and put the retaining plate back but you may have damaged the planetry gears already so you may not get drive back or it may make a horrible noise. Replacement of the box for a known good item is a safer way to go imo

    Not really no but it's possibly the safest option. Mick

    Very very good looking car...

    I don't think they'll be able to blanket roll it out, more likely it'll be for cars under a manufacturer warranty still but I can see it coming because it's bad for the Polar Bears (or some s**t like that).
