    what springs for 172

    Re: whater springs for 172 Shocks wear all the time life span isn't easy to prove. I worn mine out in about 50k and thats on stock springs but they were still fine until 70k when i chnaged them they just were noticbably (to me) not as good as new.

    Fooked back shocker... part 2

    Spax don't do a 182 kit they don't realise (like most com[anies) that the 172 stuff isn't the same you can modify it to fit just like all 172 stuff. But forget Spax like the plague its useless rear dmapers fail ever month or so I went though 6 sets in as many month I think.

    Thinking of getting a 172 Cup

    Personally air con for me isn't good its just expensive to fix. Zeons are nice ABS is worth. Depends what you want to do with the car I'd personally take a full fat for what I want a Cup would be if I did more driving in daylight and did less miles.

    any difference between 1.2/1.4 dynamique??

    Random cutting out

    If you got dirty in it the system would completly crash, new engine time if you get dirty in the system thats why there so mad on cleanlyness. You must have some sort of fault logged are you running low on fuel driving full throttle what rpm? Earthing leads are my best bet.

    Wat mm to lower my car to on 17s (1.4)

    Up to you, might as well see how you go with stock shocks loads of people don't care but to me dampers are an integated part of the cars suspenison and should be matched to the spring.

    any difference between 1.2/1.4 dynamique??

    Yep they did. But the 1.6 was only made in reasonably high spec anyway. The phase 1 1.6 16V came with rear disk at some age. I still prefere drums though much better.

    Wat mm to lower my car to on 17s (1.4)

    Most peopel don't buy shocks as well your damper will wear out quicker how quick depends how you drive and what you'll accept as worn.

    Brake Upgrade

    Depends what disk there made for my old 4 pots were for stock disks so £30 a corner or less.

    any difference between 1.2/1.4 dynamique??

    Later phase 2 1.6 16V came with rear disks. 1.6 has stiffer ARB on all spec levels same as the dci 1.4 has a thicker one in most applicatiosn from memory.

    Brake Upgrade

    Hence there not perfect. Also seals should last longer on 4 pots. Plus pads are cheaper on 4 pots my old ones were DS2500 or so type compound and were £40 vs £85 or so for ds2500's on a 172. Once you add up say 4 sets of pads over the life you own the car thats £160 plus disk should take less...

    Brake Upgrade

    Why do other Clio race teams use 4 pots then? Don't get me wrong there great stock but they have there weeknesses IMO.

    Steering

    The problem is the strut top catching you can grind it asway as per Renault do or get the 255 V6 CLio from setup which fixes the problem (its expensive) or anything to stop the rubbing.

    Decent Parts to buy out of a Clio Sport for my DCI

    You could fit the whole body kit bumper side skirts etc if you want. Also the front end suspension should fit. But thats driveshafts mounts etc.
