    Personalizing Origin B2

    I think the original colour matches a 172 interior quite well. Would be nice to be able to change the colour of the LCD display though.

    Eibachs on 182

    Ive had Eibachs on mine since the car was virtually new and theyve served me well. Started using 15"s and slicks for trackdays recently, and now Im thinking adjustable coilovers so I can lose a lot more ride-height on track.

    Track day noise limits

    If your car was making 98db youd get pulled over every time you went on the road. Doubt itll be above 90. Give the organisers a call and see whether you can get it tested beforehand.

    Clio 182 Spare Wheel: HELP!

    Just go to a scrappy and get a Megane 15" wheel.

    trackday wheels&tyres

    Almost all of them. I have wheels from a Megane (my wifes Megane!) which I use as trackday wheels. Theyre 15" but if you fit 195/50/15 tyres theyre fine.

    you need to bed the engine hard

    Quite a few people have the oil & filter changed at 6k miles for this reason (I did). Renault say its totally unnecessary.

    you need to bed the engine hard

    Ideally you should do it all in one go to avoid cold starts. Drive to Scotland and back (or England if you live in Scotland).

    you need to bed the engine hard

    Bed it in hard = max power & minimum engine life apparently. Follow the instructions and the engine will last longer.

    172/182 Cruise control......

    Cruise control is a menace. On the M6 toll (only place it can be used in the UK!) there are loads of Volvo / Merc drivers who just sit in the middle lane asleep with cruise set at 80.... :confused:

    Definitive Cup Mods for *IMPROVEMENT*

    ^^^ yeah what he said. Suspension & brakes are the things that gain you the biggest advantage.

    Just an idea - Performance wars

    They could always do it over a weekend at York or Santa Pod. How long does it take to fit a turbo conversion anyway? :p

    Tyres rubbing on wheel arch

    This happened to me, and the dealer replaced the arch liners under warranty (nice of them as Id done it by whacking a cone on a trackday). I gather its quite a common thing though - so it may have been caused by a stone or something breaking the liner.

    creaking noise

    yup they should be. Had my engine mount done under warranty. (Didnt creak though, more of a clunk).

    Wheels Rubbing Query

    How much have you lowered it by? If the wheels are ET37, and 7 x 17, you should have no problems.

    clio 172 fires mk 2

    It is a worry - even more with Mooses car which had been turned off for ages before it went on fire.

    Does anyone else feel....bad

    Car never goes better than just after a trackday. GIVE IT SOME! :D

    If not Eagle F1s or Proxes T1s ... what

    Yokohama A539 - about the same price as the Toyos.
  25. telford_mike

    Proxes T1s vs. Eagle F1s

    You may be glad of tyres that are good in the wet at Thruxton - here we are doing our parade laps in the pouring rain at Brands! http://www.cliosport.net/meets/24nov2002/brands12.jpg
  26. telford_mike

    Proxes T1s vs. Eagle F1s

    The F1s are much better in the wet, and will last a lot longer - hence much higher price.

    CLIO 172 FIRE!!
