    sonny172cup "track car to race car project"

    DZ03G 205/50s, less camber, pop the Wilwoods back on. What size brake discs are you using with each setup? I've changed from RSR to AD08R and I'll be running 3 degress camber and the roll centre kit, before I was kit-less and ran 3.83 degrees. I've also uprated the spring rates. Before the...

    What cams are these?

    If they were made several years ago they'll be equivalent to 428. So only the inlet cam is uprated. Prima racing do the same profile from blanks for £295 brand new so it could be them. TDF seemed to get lots of exaggerated RR figures so I'd take that with a pinch of salt. I.E a 172 with itbs...

    Issues with wide wheels

    I think with 9J if you don't get rubbing on the arches then you would get it on the struts.

    How do you get rid of a 182 body roll

    AST sportline 1. Nice enough on the road and a bit more 'trackday' than the B14s. The B14 are very good though. With the RARB I thought I noticed a difference after fitting it, but I definitely didn't notice a difference after removing it! The biggest improvements I've noticed in mine are:-...

    Exhaust pop

    Ok then. Honest answer. There's the possibility it would do internal engine damage and knacker your engine. It will definitely knacker your cat and possibly exhaust silencer(s). Normal people will LOL because of the race car noise from a clearly non race car. Those into their cars will LOL...

    ITB'd Road & Track Ph1 Titanium 172

    Thanks mate, can't wait for Oulton on the 27th :) I've gone and bought an arch roller to see if I can go wider on the back. The only problem is I didn't look at the delivery date...so I might not get it done before Oulton.

    Weight of seats 172 vs 172 cup

    Cup doesn't have airbags or true driver side lumbar support adjustment. The bolsters feel bigger too but that might just be because they're less slippery than leather. The dynamique might well be the same. Ph1 and Ph2 have different wiring plugs.

    Weight of seats 172 vs 172 cup

    I prefer the cup ones. They're 18ish kg whereas the the 172/182 are 22kg passenger side and 24kg driver side.

    ITB'd Road & Track Ph1 Titanium 172

    Not done a great deal really, been making use of it :) Recently the ABS got ditched, got rid of the bracket too and got around to fitting my battery cut-off switch. Some minor weight saving, got rid of one horn and bent the bracket to tuck it up out of the way. Also removed the weight by the...

    Hot Hatch article on PH; RS Clio content

    I agree with it. My old Mk2 Fiesta felt amazing, my ph1 is not that road friendly but it's so much easier to push on in than the Fiesta was. If I went too fast it would try to kill me, if I lifted off it would try to kill me, if I braked too hard/late it would try to kill me. But get it right...

    Longer brake pedal travel

    Thanks for your help mate :)

    Longer brake pedal travel

    OK, so I guess the 12v feed for that cames from the ABS, and if I give it a new 12v from somewhere (any should do?) then they'll both turn off?

    Longer brake pedal travel

    Jȯrd The brake fluid level light and handbrake light share the same bulb. I'm guessing the low fluid one goes through the ABS module so will I just need to give the sensor a new 12v feed? The STOP light is also still on. I tried pin 15 on plug B for that but it doesn't seem to do anything...

    CLIO IV RS - Trophy from page 111

    I had no issues test driving one at my local Renault earlier in the year. Nice car, but not special enough for me. Better all rounder and daily drive than the ST. Nicer dash too, I absolutely hate the radio in the new Fiestas. Better brakes, better suspension, it pulls off the 5 doors very...
