    how can i get more power out of my 1.2

    The two go hand in hand more or less mate, unlessing you're redlining it in 5th then it's down to gear ratios. more power = better acceleration = greater top speed The easiest way to get better acceleration is to lose weight.

    which steelies for 172 cup?

    Lol. Vauxhall define their models by letters. I think b and c is ~95 - 04?? Why would you want to use them on track?

    New suspension, the Cup's got stance...

    That's my car. Lol. That's the picture from the advert, just shows the height and stance better than any others I have.

    New suspension, the Cup's got stance...

    They'll settle a lot lower than that mate. I'm still shocked every time I see a cup on standard springs, they look ridiculous! This is mine on sportlines, as said, great spring.

    lowered clio 172 cup+2118 offset options

    That will be fine mate. I've gone for 7 on mine, I think that's the norm.

    how can i get more power out of my 1.2

    But the point I was making was really that they can handle just as well as a 1*2. I know it's kind of irrelevant but I bet a 1.2 with coilies and decent rubber would out corner a 1*2 on standard suspension. That's why I said it in the first place, I was just trying to support my case for him...

    how can i get more power out of my 1.2

    All I said was round a tight circuit. Don't try and make excuses cos you were wrong!

    how can i get more power out of my 1.2

    Why???? A 1.2 with a good suspension set up, ARB and completely stripped. My point was that it will handle just as well as a 1*2 but without the straight line speed. This has been said many times on this forum before.

    Apex 40mm Springs Pics B4 + After !!! ( as requested ).

    Prolines look more or less standard, 15mm drop on a FF, 5mm on a cup/cup packs. Sportlines are a 35mm drop though.... That's only 5mm less than these Apex's!

    Nope. Standard cup turinis. The rear arch gap looks bigger in this picture cos of the shadow. The arch gap is about the same as the front.

    thinking of getting rid of the clio

    Sell the 182, get shot of the micra. Then buy a ph1 172. You've got £3k in your pocket and you've got rid of a car. £231 a month seems an awful lot for a 182 mate. PCP on a 200 isn't a whole lot more than that!

    172 cup or RB 182?

    Ph2 172 is better looking than the 182 IMO. Don't like the two exhausts. Your decision is this.... Slightly lighter, slighted faster, slightly better handling = 172 cup A LOT more luxury and gadgets = 182FF I found the insurance was more or less exactly the same for both cars... About £20 in...

    how can i get more power out of my 1.2

    They can be quick mate, same as anything really. But you'd have to spend a massive amount of money. It's just not worth it. You're clearly dying to spend money so buy some coilovers, sone decent 15'' light wheels (O.Z Ultraleggera ftw :) ) strut braces and a rear ARB, make it handle like it's...
