For my Ph1 I went Quaife with the 4.07 final drive rather than the 3.89. Gearing is pretty good, just needs ITBs now. Something like a 4.27 would be perfect imo.

Good effort, well done!

You forgot Leicester

I thought the 200 exhaust was pretty good and you could benefit from doing a y-pipe and sports cat?

Both as standard I'd have the DC5. I'd only consider the Mk3 Clio if it had boost and a diff.

Get some camber bolts on there and get the camber up to max.

They seem to get good reviews, but for 15" they only do a 195 profile not a 205 :(

X112 FGM

Looks great in the last photos!

I went for them as its cheaper than losing a valve head.

Take and average of the max power and torque figures and it's 184bhp and 173lbft. That's exactly the same mine is putting out with ITG filter, ported head, matches inlets, Piper cams, 182 manifold and sports cat. So very good figures if they're accurate :)

Which is correct 1035 or 1059kg?

Re: Ph1 172 Ok I'll start with 2.5 and see how that goes. Collected my alloy bonnet today, rather light! Very pleased. It came from a car on here, X277 HAV

Re: Ph1 172 Ok. I think its around 1.5-1.6 on the rear so an extra 0.5 should do? Or take it up to 2.5?

Looking good!

Re: Ph1 172 I'll just max it all out!! See how it goes. Is it worth getting more camber on the rear? Tyre wear on the back seemed spot on.

Shame they don't do them for the Clio

Re: Ph1 172 Believe it not I weighed in a powdercoated cup subframe...whoops! Swapping to a ph2 subframe would lose caster though wouldn't it? I can get 3.2 from the camber bolts and ASTs. Should be better than the 1.8 I've got.

Re: Ph1 172 Thank you :) And thank you again :)

I mentioned this earlier on but the reply was this doesn't work... As you make the oil thinner you reduce the pressure by making it less resitant to flowing. So if you increase the hot viscosity you can increase the pressure. You don't necessarily need a 60 weight oil, a 50 might do but you...

I've got the billet flywheel on mine, I think its great. Revs up better, slows down quicker and the gear changes seem slicker. My mate had a drive of it on the last track day we did and he commented on how much of a difference its made.

Thanks Mark. I'll give ACW a ring soon and see what deal they can do on a set of margard ones. They did me a good deal on my last car :)

Try again...you get a more adjustable monotube setup to the Bilsteins for a few quid more. And the Bilsteins are great!

Didn't see it. And hardly everyone lol it's about four people. You get a similar setup to the AST 1 for £300 less. What's not to like.....waiting to get shot down now for daring to compare them to ASTs :P

Lovely motor

I'll be looking into a set next year. Look forward to see how they go on track Mick. They're reasonably priced, monotube, have decent spring rates, damping adjustable and seem to last well (a friend has a set used daily on her Scoob UK300 for the past 2 years).

Dirty noise!

Not really. HC are good enough How much are they from ktec? Best price I know of is £40 posted from Kam racing

Re: Ph1 172 Saw the doorcards Dan made for his ph1 http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?644646-Dan-s-Ph1-track-fun-car-project/page4 So I've ordered a small sample of the grey foamalux in hope that it matches the interior. If not I'll get black. I'm on the lookout for manual...
