    172 Cup OEM+

    Mine doesn't have the bar attached, this is normal on Cups from what I've read.

    Exhaust Options

    Would the group buy have to be for the same specifications or could it be altered? Im looking at getting a none resonated version and backbox that has the tip out of the back of the bumper.

    Exhaust Options

    Im looking at a Piper system too, albeit a recessed version. Seems quite quiet but perhaps this is just the video.

    ‘Bonnie Blue’ The RB 182

    172 Cup photo thread

    This was the state of mine on Wednesday! Driving it 3hrs each way wasn't overly pleasant although the way home it was a lot more...fruity..

    172 Cup photo thread

    Spent the weekend on mine, this is what it looked like 1st thing Sunday morning. It still looks similar now, just with more pipes!

    5 year gap in MOT history

    Could have been a track car trailered to events, it also could have just been someone's 2nd car and didn't get used for 5 years.

    Some cool action shots from my 1st track day!

    Looking good! It took me way to long to book my first track day, im about 10 in now and financially ruined.

    Camber Shims & Toe

    I was wondering how it changed toe on the rear also. I can understand it on the front when you have the camber change fighting against the track rods etc but my (very) small brain cant work it out for the rear!

    Red 197 Retford

    Turns out, this 197 could actually have been a 200...

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    Top marks for Frogjam! Ordered yesterday and they are here now, great price too!

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    Yes, I was just looking at this, they are similarly priced to the CL's. May well give them a shot unless the DS1.11's can be had cheaper than I have found.

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    Where have you found this? I found the RC6's for £200 per set. I can only find the 1.11's at £300 and they dont seem to be in stock anywhere.

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    Totally get the added value of the DS1.11's and I will go that way in the future but they just aren't in my budget right now.
  16. the_baron_von_richthofen

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    OK, it doesn't seem that the CL's are worth the extra with the shorter life time and wet issues. The DS1.11 pads are on my list but they are a bit pricey for me right now, I have read very good things about them though.

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    This is good info. So one of my concerns was how badly they would wear. I'm getting around 3 track days to a front set of the PBS's but that's only at Blyton Park. Did you have any issues with wet track days with the CL's? I see that Kam mention that they need extra mainantence after getting wet.

    CL RC6 vs PBS ProRace

    Does anyone have any track experience with both types of pad? So far, I have been using the ProRace pad's but I dont think the set that I have now will last a full day at Cadwell. Are the RC6's a worth while upgrade? How long do they last by comparison?

    Engine Mounts - Opinions please.

    Why do you say the Evol ones are junk? Did you hear of any issues with them?

    Red 197 Retford

    Mines not out too often but I am in that area! Was it you in the 197?

    Red 197 Retford

    Just wondered if it's anyone here. 6pm leaving Randall Park Way.

    Engine Mounts - Opinions please.

    The Evol ones are rubber but they say there are 2 different versions (road and Track).

    Engine Mounts - Opinions please.

    I have the Evol mounts. As above, they are easy enough to fit and the quality seems good but in my experience they add a lot of vibration and noise. I do have the stiffer version though and mine is basically track only at this stage. It was certainly less harsh with the OEM Mounts with insert.

    Brand new wheel sealant?

    I used Carbon Collective's Platinum Wheels ceramic on a set of new 2118's that are used for track only. It was easy enough to apply and I've done 3 or 4 track days at Blyton on them and the brake dust comes off easily. Overall its been on them for 7 months and is still going strong.

    We haven’t had a roll call for a while… *Track Clio pics only!*

    Im based in Retford making Blyton my local track. I did 4 or 5 days at Blyton this year but im planning to do Cadwell and Donnington next year.

    Show me your ‘Clubsport’ spec 1*2’s

    They are Mirco RST's and are slightly wider than most bucket seats to accommodate the fatter arsed individual!

    Speedo stops working intermittently

    Most commonly the gearbox sensor but I had the same issue and it turned to be the wiring/plug going into the sensor. You can get replacement plugs on ebay.

    Buzzing when letting off at high rpm

    Is the backbox or the pipe that goes over the rear axle catching on the body work, or close enough to catch it when the engine moves?

    SMI Steering Rack Seals

    Hi All, My steering rack was leaking fluid after a day at Blyton. I bought these seals from Ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/273205594010 however now the rack is apart I cant see that any of these fit on the piston part of the rack. Does anyone know which seals are correct and where they can...
