    Hello from Australia

    question is: will the k-tec suspension make the car faster than standard? if the answer is yes than it's worth the money. Generally people say the car goes better with these cheap kits but I haven't seen a lap time std vs cheap coils to see if it really is a difference I'd buy them though just...

    Why do 15's make the handling better?

    not true^ a friend has 15x7" ultras on his 172. maybe they are harder to get right now

    Had Silenced De-cat! MPG??

    had a read recently and fitting a de-cat will decrease back-pressure which some will say it won't do good to power or torque. so do you really gain anything from fitting one? my cat exit towards the mid section is slightly damaged and I was thinking of either doing the 2,5" cat mod or to buy a...

    Which induction kit?

    ^at ~380 it should be good :) as I said if you go for an enclosed induction from a decent manufacturer and run the CAF properly these kits would work.

    Which induction kit?

    i'm pleased with my BMC. I think the most important thing is to have a good CAF and avoid heat soak. enclosed IK's will help

    Hankook V12 EVO or Hankook RS2 ?

    I was fine with rs2 on the front and pe2 on the rear but that's another story. I wanted to know your opinion on rs2 vs 595 rs-r (handling wise)

    brake pad choices

    I went off in an early morning 2 years ago and up the mountain road featured in the "Transfagarasan" episode from Top Gear. it was some 10 km of hard driving towards the top but the OE pads worked well. that was maybe because there were about 10 degrees outside but anyway.. So I'm guessing that...

    Hankook V12 EVO or Hankook RS2 ?

    ^ you're saying the rs2's handle better than the federal RS-R? I was tempted to try the federals in the spring. one of my front rs2's was damaged and thought of buying a set or at least 2 federals

    Fitted these washer jets

    you can always take off your jets and take a close pic of them, and then a pic of the holes in the bonnet where they attach and I'll tell you if they fit

    Tyres - Sizes...

    hankook rs-2 is very grippy, a good trackday tyre and good also for daily driving, it won't last forever as others but you do get the grip ;)

    Ferodo DS2500 Front Pads - Fitting advice

    still not good. under heat the grease will thin up and may end up in the friction material area, aided maybe by water, motion, air and such factors. mine squeak but i'm ok with that

    The 'Clios on Coilovers' Appreciation thread.

    I'm asking this because recently I fitted some camber bolts and with 1,5 neg camber I can only fit my finger between the shock and the inner side of the tyre. was afraid that on coilies the spring seats could rub on that area. but that's probably only when you're really low if you say it's fine...

    The 'Clios on Coilovers' Appreciation thread.

    question: standard et 45 182 wheels + coilovers and lowered about 50 mm front/40 mm rear (with no spacers) and about 1,5 negative camber on the front will the tyres rub on the springs/springs seats on the front? I'm tempted on coilies but don't want to use spacers or use smaller offset wheels...

    Magnecor leads

    careful with the blue ones, I know people had problems with them. I'd go for the red ones, not much expensive
