i stripped mine out this week, as its gone in for cage fitment. amazing how much all that interior weighs. car felt alot more lively without it all!

pad choice will make a difference. The Hawk pads compbrake supply are not the best in my opinion. But there is a full range available, DS2500's, 1144's etc etc

tried the compbrakes then? and also compared them to the AP's and Brembo's? i am sure the AP's are a better product (being monoblock callipers), but then they are over twice the price.

would be freaking awesome if it does!

nice selection of cars! FILTHY!!! :D

what sort of money we looking at, then i can tell you if i am in or not

15's for handling! on a grippy 195/50/15 just my opinion mind!

i dont find the pedal softer, i find it has more feel to it. its more progressive. i guess it does have a longer stroke on it, but then thats the nature of having more pistons to fill!

Compbrake only have/supply/use one size hose for all thier kits. which is a shame, as it makes the hose too long for the clio.

good call!! free track time for me and mark!

get CAMO grip tape!!! :D

great stuff for the lunch hour... how about you spend the 10k on free food rather than st(c)unt men!! :D

if you bleed properly, and have braided hoses all round there shouldnt be an issue.

yeah, but i dont really think it was a whole hearted attempt! well if you call putting the engine in the space let from the old engine, dangling from a crane, an attempt! like MATT said, would need fabrication work, but certanly not impossible!

first get the suspension and brakes sorted, then see what change you have left for engine work.

dont be shy with the link!!! will fax it over tomorrow Ben, as its at home and i am at work!

awesome stuff! cant wait

I can fax it to you, if thats any good?

another excellent update! have to say about the cage and window winder issue.... i have the same cage, and the bars that are stopping the window winder dont go there in my diagram, they connect the main hoop to the front roof sections (if that makes sence). not that it makes much difference!

indeed, we supply the correct fittings so you dont have to cut and flare, as we felt it was more user friendly. But Compbrake do recommend the cut n flare technique. As for the setup itself, you have to make sure the system is bled properly. I have just fitted a set to my latest 172, and...

having mine done soon, along with a crank, rod and piston balance. QEP can do it for £120 plus vat as a comparison to any quotes u get!

good choice! :D

Some talk the talk, some actually walk the walk! When was the last time AWT had a glowing report of thier work, and when was the last time GDI did.......? all i know is i cant remember the last time i actually saw some AWT stuff on a car, yet i regulaly hear good reports about GDI. I...

GDI - good, friendly, reliable service. plus will give you sound advice for what you want to achieve in the long term.

Pretty savage! glad people are ok tho! have to say, clio looks in pretty good shape if it rolled 5 or 6 times!

good stuff!

if people can get VAG lumps to fit, no reason a 225 lump wont fit, if you know what your doing! I had one a few years back to put in my 182, but decided to sell it, and the car. bloke bought it and put it in his Renault Spider!!! :D

its a cup racer surely???
