    Balljoint: how much over there?

    put some cash aside and get the AST solid top mounts. if you have problems with the bushes you may also have to replace the lower arms bushes. If that's the case I suggest buying 2 new lower arms which came with new bushes and balljoints installed. about 80 euro's per arm (in my country at...

    camber values

    are they the eibach ones? where did you get them? I suppose you're on them for a while, is the tyre wear a problem? and how is the handling, worth the hassle of getting them? cheers!

    Powerflex Dogbone - Arghhhhhhh!

    Have to say that kamracing delivered a package to me in record braking time. once the package left their door it arrived in ONE day to me. quite impressive for a near 3000 km journey Keep it up KamR! :approve:

    Powerflex Dogbone - Arghhhhhhh!

    LOL get a flashlight and try to press out the metal sleeve that holds the larger bush (I think that's the one causing you problems) I can't tell you exactly how to do that as I didn't fitted mine but the guy who did the job sorted it out pretty quickly.

    People running MOTUL 5w 40

    ok I know motul is a great oil, this is why I began using it , problem is, why suddenly the car consumes it? the theory I've came across earlier about the mixing with the elf being left in the engine seemed plausible at that moment but didn't expect the level to drop again in just 1000-1200 km...

    People running MOTUL 5w 40

    update on this: checked the oil today and it seems like it drank yet another 3-400 ml since the last check ~1000 km ago. so in 8000 km it drank about a liter and the last 1000 about 3-400 ml. this is strange because the oil looks good (color wise) I'm going to have it serviced in a week or so...

    Tracking/alignment after lowering

    right rear camber seems very different to left rear, don't think this is the way it's supposed to be

    camber values

    went last night to a car park and had some fun with the car but then seen this an wondered if some negative camber would help.. you can see how much flex the tyre suffered, was wondering if I could throw in some camber bolts on the stock dampers do you think 1-1,2 neg camber on the front would...

    Michelin PE2 (exalto 2's) are no longer being made!!!!

    wow! good thing they make them in 16" pics please! ;)

    Anyone tried Michelin Pilot Sport 3 yet ?

    PS3's are the replacement for the PS2, not the PE2. maybe there is a PE3 on the way but not sure about that

    Michelin PE2 (exalto 2's) are no longer being made!!!!

    some megane rs guys say they're lighter and have better wet grip than PS2's but can't understand why the clio 1*2 boys keep wondering about PS3's as michelin probably won't do them in 16"sizes as they never did with the PS2's
  19. ripp

    Anyone tried Michelin Pilot Sport 3 yet ?

    yeah I don't think they will do them in 1*2 sizes, as they never did with the previous pilot sports

    Is there a difference between the 172 cup and trophy wheels?

    if you're planning on lowering get a wheel with the closest offset to 45, thus you'll prevent rubbing on the arches (and even so it may appear but it will be smoother and easier do get rid off). so get the trophy wheels :D

    Clio 182 exhaust, modified vs standard.....benefits?

    if you're talking lightweight then a single back-box with 2wo exit tail-pipes is the way fwd. ktr/janspeed/yozza/orbisound look light enough

    tyre size

    on the front people are getting the rubbing even with 195/50 r15. on the rear yeah you could go larger

    These coilovers any good??

    there are plenty of threads on these coilies. they had pretty good reviews so far considering the price
  24. ripp

    tyre size

    they are too big for a car that already has tyre rubbing issues (when lowered). 195/45 r16 is the std size, although for track use 195/50 r15 are the best option

    Ferodo DS2500 (for a change) part number confusion

    clearly with the shims on these pads won't go in, with them removed, a little file needed compound wise, they should be the same I guess

    Ferodo DS2500 (for a change) part number confusion

    thanks fred! good info there as I can see the 565 has a groove in the middle? my 406's have that groove although not shown in the drawing. I bought the pads from k-tec as they had them in the kit with the HC discs at a reasonable price. good to know what the differences are, this thread may as...

    Ferodo DS2500 (for a change) part number confusion

    would like to know some day what are the differences between 565 and 406's (the official diferences I mean). a ferodo employee has to make an account around here lol p.s: FACT is I had to file them despite k-tec said that it wouldn't be necessary as they are the correct part no. so it seems like...
