    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Ah just seen your edit mate after I've pm'd you. Lol! It's not going to fit unless you get different brackets as my cage is 45mm diameter so needed the larger size. The adjustment is 0-2.5".

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Yeah it's a 14" with mounting brackets. Brand new and unused. The smallest diameter rollcage it fits is 43mm, so if you measure up first and let me know I'll Pm you a price. Seeing as your not the usual forum muppet I'm happy to do sale or return as well (providing it doesn't come back with a...

    Clios are rubbish around the nurburgring. Here's a video of one of my laps: http://youtu.be/zMwiIwex2uA:o

    Clio 172 Cup Race Car - Info Request

    I'd just use the spherical bearing kit from pure motorsport and alter the fittings to allow for adjustable caster tbh. I don't think I'll ever see an issue from worn cup racer bushes though tbh, although I've already got some replacement bushes and holders sorted out at the machine shop.

    Clio 172 Cup Race Car - Info Request

    No mate I don't think it will ever be solved without resorting to cutting them away with a grinder and rubbing them properly. Mines very low so I actually get rubbing on the arch itself. The bumper bracket is the usual suspect though for most people. It can be fully removed if needed.

    ^^^^£500 just in bushes there!! I priced it up and found out it was cheaper to buy them as a complete wishbone! Lol

    Clio 172 Cup Race Car - Info Request

    It's the same amount Morgan. I run cup racer wishbones on mine and when measured, it was identical. You could increase the caster more if you fitted cup wishbones with the cup racer uniballs on yours due to the way the cup arms are drilled. It never bothered me enough to do it though as it...

    Ultimate’s 172 Show Car Project Thread Hydrodipped and Vinyl Wrapped.

    How much (roughly) would you charge to hydrodip a front grill with a Union Jack on both sides Tyler@Ultimate? Patriotic. :clap:

    Change a 182 non cup into a trophy suspension wise shopping list.

    182 cup/cup packed/Trophy all share the same hub afaik and do indeed run a larger bearing. The 60mm bit your thinking of is the bolt spacing for the front shock absorber mounting to the hub.

    Advice on geo/corner weight

    ^^^classic case of mismatched dampers, springs, poor geo and roll centre issues. Gaz is no good for racing imo. You need Ast sportline 2's. If you start saving for them now, they might be here in a year or 2's time. Slow boat, china, they come on it!

    Advice on geo/corner weight

    Are the dampers pictures the ones you have? They look like they've been modified to accept the Clio hubs instead if using the cup racer stuff.

    Leda Coilvers Track Set-up 172

    What advice are you after in particular mate? Damper settings? Geo settings? You need to tell us what the spring rates are as well currently. Every bit of detail helps mate.

    ast solid top mounts

    I have them fitted and use them to increase castor. Camber bolts will do the rest.

    Boot battery relocation cable

    I used a proper mega fuse holder mate so can't comment on the quality of that one above. I doubt stereo equipment has the same amp draw or current flow of the charging system though so not sure I'd want to use one of them.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    I'd try and get the taper matched first, but if I had no joy I'd drill it parallel mate. A parallel pin doesn't need heat treatment if it's got plenty of meat to it, but a tapered one does ideally. You'd have to have the pin machined to be close tolerance though to reduce any movement. I don't...

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    I'd just drill the taper out and run a straight pin in that setup mate. There's enough room to pull it up nice and tight with a nut at the top as well. Then it's just a case of the lower arms to sort.

    Boot battery relocation cable

    I didn't bother on mine mate. I wire a lot of big power consuming stuff in at work and just put the fuse as close to the battery as possible.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    Altering the pin to a taper would be a pain mate tbh. You're better off getting some mk2 cup racer extender pins and checking to see if the taper matches. How many splines are there in the drive flange? If they're the same as the 1*2, you could fit 182 cup hubs. The spherical joints are only...

    They're in the group buy section mate and you need to be a member to see that. Have a search for BIGASH's thread mate as there's pics in there. I'll search for a link.

    Rear roll center change when lowering

    Interesting about the uprights! I'm sure something could be manufactured. I might have a look for a set of 133 uprights. Lol! You could convert to the 1*2 style hub and use the custom ball joints I use on the roll centre corrector hubs to gain track width.

    I've got the bearing kit - great bit of kit! Stiffening kit will be put on eventually.
