Really shows how cr*p the 182 wheels are! Turinis are spot on. That must rub like f**k on the 205's. I know mine did.

Not in a bad way, just serious. Woke up...at that time of day??

Nice pics Si. Not convinced by the new clio sport, looks shite imo. The racer looks... 'ok'.

Changed the wheels back then? Did you run it on track?

Is that your civic si?

Mental

A maxogen would make a difference but doubt anyting else without a decent heat sheild. It's too close to the engine so sucks in all the warm air.

Mine's on 1.3 neg, good compromise but she does squirm a bit...part of the fun. Tyre wear is fine.

Mate, you gave me a run for my money with that 'moody model' look last night. Car looked good

Yeah it's running a it smoother now...shame about the rest of the roads!! Feckin M25, I hate it!

quality. yeah those roadworks are a right fucker! not as bad in the morning now they've opened up another lane.

Hi mate, Sorry about the sleepy early morning moody nod. Yours looked a lot cleaner than mine. You been running around in a yellow mini lately??

We was having a look at his photos in his office. One of which his 3 clio cups that won the 2000/01 season. It's great to see, and all the winners reefs that go all around the workshop. So much histroy in such a small place.

What about the carbon roof, can you touch those with polishers etc, like the metalwork?

Yeah a few local guys use him that have renaults. He does a lot of servicing for people that aren't on here. A lot of his time is taken up with prepping the cooper works racers.

Was at Mr. Fish's gaff yesterday gettng my camber adjusted and this was there. It's been posted on here before but it's now got new goodies. Ledas, cage, ONE seat (good man) and f**k all interior. Oh and big brakes. Nice. Check out the camber on the fronts!

Ferodo DS2500's Brembo std discs and if budget allows... Goodrisge lines Excellent setup yozzasport.co.uk is probably the best price.

Where in the south east are you?

Seconded! There should be a pinned review of each coilover, these threads pop up everyday now! No offence to clio sport 172.

Nothing bothers me about mine, it's mint. Could do with buckets though for an extra 10bhp through the corners;)

Talking of handling and quality of spring/dampers...you slam on the anchors from about a ton on the standard setup, then try the same with a good set of coilovers. Braking is much better through the corners too, the car stays in control and doesn't get as tail happy.

It won't be a real cup if you do it...next you'll want ABS and xenons!!

Apex won't lower a cup as much as a std 172/182, I tried it but it is the cheapest way to do the job. That's if you're just after looks. Coilovers are a much better buy but I can only comment on H&R.

By far the best thing to buy for these cars imo. Can make such a difference in all areas, especially track driving.

GAZ/FK are pretty stif from what I've heard and H&R are perfect for road. Then there's Bilstein and Leda which I have no knowledge of but are the top of the crop, especially for track use. Honestly, you'd love the H&R's but they're about £720.

I like mine, respect it for what it can do. Over 3 years on...

It'll feel dogshit if you use springs or coilies especially with the 17's on. Coilovers are the best route imo but you can probably get a good drop from a cheap set of Apex lowering springs. Saying that, I find the damping on my H&R's better than the standard setup. All bumps soaked up much...

I get kncoks too, it's the snappy delivery. Even in 3rd to 4th on track. I tihink mine is the top mounts on the suspension.
