yeah that's the damper adjusment nut. looks pretty low that second pic although hard to tell from that angle. from your memory, was it lower than this (judging from the gap):

as above really. avoid rear OEM shocks, my last set lasted 15-20k and then started to leak. front ones were ok though don't know if 172 rear shocks have the same reputation, mine were 182 cup ones

don't know how they compare to the OEM renault ones but when I was on the original pads, after about 10 mins of spirited driving they begun to give up a bit.

take a pic of the nut, I'll help you but first let's make sure what we're talking about :) thanks for taking that measurement for me. one more thing, if you have a side pic with your car with this suspension on would you be kind enough and post it? just curious how it stands

I'm at the point where I don't think coilovers offer that amount of adjustability without compromised handling- riding on the bump stops if too low for example you can read my post if curious about my experience(this may be helpful)-...

if the extra money for the 2500 aren't a problem I would go for them. It's good to know your brakes can take some abuse and still work

get some wd40 on the adjusters and get them lower on the strut, you will de-compress the spring and there will be no need for the compressor. And yes, you can get new springs from gaz or gaz suppliers. For the top mount you may heve to use some kind of extractors. I remember it was a pain for me...

lol I see that my case may have stumbled you :P I still feel the need for a last cry for help First question: does that seem right? that is a pic with the wheel off and the car in the air. you can see the travel available-85mm like I said before this is the car still in the air with the wheel...

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) Cup Racer Rep! any news from gaz?

that car is cryin for some spacers in the back(mainly)! LE: saw the latest pics, that's more like it :)

get them done at a specialist. I tried painting various bits on the car but at the end they didn't came out like I wanted to

h&r in cup fitment? where from?

worth the hassle only if the bearings are way cheaper that brand new discs, imo

or g 172 here- top man!

Hope that this post will help others, if the OP has decided already, so here it goes Brand and model GAZ GHA Reason for purchase? good price, I had no idea how Bilstein, AST, Spax are like so I really wanted something adjustable. I knew about their reputation mind you Review of fitment...

same here

ast coilovers+ topmounts lsd, tuition btw, how are the 595 rsr's going?

My car is LHD since I'm outside UK and I'm gonna order some bits and pieces from k-tec. They also have the genuine clutch kit for sale but is it the same for both LHD or RHD vehicles or there are 2 different parts? thanks!

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) FCS Pics! one more thing: I'm curious what's the minimum travel that GAZ recommend on the front shocks- for example is it ok to have about 2,5 cm between the shock body and the bump stop? I was in this situation and they advised to cut the bump stops without any other...

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) FCS Pics! I hope gaz will sort them up properly this time. Funny how while I knew gaz had a bad reputation I still went for this kit; same thing with my milltek but none of them gave up so far. I can't understand how a product being assembled in the same place by the...

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) FCS Pics! yes they are, but they ride on biliies which probably have different length shock bodies and stuff would be very helpful if you do take the pics mate nice rims btw ;)

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) FCS Pics! wow that front end is low! can you take a look at my thread: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?603059-What-s-your-ride-height-GAZ-GHA-owners and maybe take some measurements next time you take a wheel off? in my experience if you go that low there...

any new pics?

what? I have the gaz gha kit plus eibach camber bolts and about 1,5 neg camber from the bolts ontopic: yep these are very good mods. I'm sorry I rushed into buying the k-tec mounts couple of years ago and not going for the ast ones. not that the k-tec ones aren't good-they are but buy the ast...

camber bolts on the front? how much camber? great pics as usual ;)

hi there, how much did you paid for the injector?

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) Gaz Coilovers/Ktec mounts & decat! Back in a clio :) bloody bad luck! I just replaced the front bumper 3 weeks ago and 2 weeks after I find the car scraped on the bumper corner under the headlight all the way to the front left wing! idiots!

Re: My 172 Cup (T5MY G) Gaz Coilovers/Ktec mounts & decat! Back in a clio :) how much did you lowered the front? nice car btw ;)

tripod at 8:18 :D

Just fitted the de-cat today, it's much quieter that I thought, maybe because of the center section and the fact that milltek systems have a deeper sound I wanted it a bit louder but after thinking a while I'm pleased with it as it won't draw as much attention and wake up the whole...
