Why would you do that?

I've had 4: 172 FF 172 Cup 182 Cup 172 Ph1

Eibachs cost between £110 - £140 Apex are about £100 - £120

Think cup springs are lower and stiffer but all RS clio springs will fit all RS clios from 2000 to 2006.

172 FF will more than cope with a track day with a few minor mods like break up grades. There is bearly any difference between a FF and a CUP anyway.

I was gogin to say^ I think the stero system is slighly different but thats about it!

This is exactly the spec I would go for, looks amzing. The only thing that puts me off is the poor econmy. For instance my ph1 is rapid but also returns 35 mpg. Some 197 owners are reporting 25MPG! :-(

Ah yes maybe if the hub would fit, but then you would need 197 alloys. Are the drive shafts the same? Prob not worth it.

Maybe 1-3 bhp, but dont forget the pump, pipes and fluid must weigh abit! So that might be worth 1 bhp alone.

How much is this posted in the wrong section!? Besides that, I wonder if the caliper will fit on a 1*2? Disc wont fit as its a 5 stud confirguration.

The only way to make sure you have the desired camber is to get camber correction bolts and get them setup properly.

I just bought a set of these but not fitted them yet. From my research if you fit them with simlar ride height springs then it should be ok. Im sure you wont need to make any adjustments with your eibachs. Some people recomend you should get everything checked over to make sure the geomtry...

nice bus wheel

Brilliant vid

I have owned a 172FF, 172 CUP, 182 CUP and now my Ph1 172. They were all great cars. 172 FF - all the toys but just missing the edge on performance 172 CUP - Felt sharper and more eger but too basic for me 182 CUP - looked nice and it was quick but didn't like the Cup version. Ph1 172 -...

I b0ught a 182 cup nearly a year ag0 f0r £7k with 20k miles

Stunning....... Just stunning...

Amazing pics....

For the same amount of time/effort and money you could so a 2.0 conversion with much better gains. I'm sure your insurnace company would also have something to say. Basicaly its a none starter, and I dought anyone will bother with the conversion.

Its worth about £5k, dealer is not a charity are they!

Not many people rate the Gaz setup. Much more people rate the Koni setup for road use. The koni's come with apex springs which are a bit harsh, I just bought a kit (yet to fit) and will most likly run eibach sportlines with them.

You did push the piston back in didn't you?

Ok you might think this sounds a bit strange but hear me out.. I am currently running sportline springs and I just bought some koni adjustable dampers which come with apex springs. I'm happy with the ride height at the front but the rear is still to high. My question is do you think I can...

Sting.... hope your ok, sue the 4x4 guy FTW.

I love my clio to bits, and I'm always thinking of the next mod or improvement, thats why i'm a member on here because we are all a bunch of clio petrol heads. I have had 5 RS clio's and have never been let down by one of them except once when the battery went on my current ph1 clio. Apart...
