    172 cup stevenage

    Decat baby, I actually wouldn't mind a bit more decibel action tbh. Definately more pops and bangs.

    Best 195/45/16 track tyre??

    well i don't want to pay more than 90 a tyre so the paradas should fall into that bracket. I'll have a word with my tyre guy.

    Best 195/45/16 track tyre??

    Yeah 205's fit but they also rip my arches off as I'm on coilovers. So I'll have to stick with the standard 195's. Although Yokoham do a 205/40/16 parada which GBLeo runs OK. Maybe those??

    Best 195/45/16 track tyre??

    Prefferably road legal but not essential and not stupid money. What are your thoughts and recomendations?

    Exhausts - does the novelty wear off?

    I still wind the wondow down through hatfield tunnel and under the hertford north bridge most nights:D Sometimes wish it was louder aswell. I want more pops and bangs though.

    Mechanical precautions??

    Minor tweaks. I've driven a couple of 182's and they are different. Apparently the wheelbase is longer on the 182's aswell. Along with a few other changes. It's not only an exhaust and wheel change. Sure someone in here will know more than me.

    Mechanical precautions??

    I know the 182's have longer gearing but didn't know the cup was different from the standard 172.

    Mechanical precautions??

    Wicked thought that would be the case. Neil, done plenty of disc changes in the last 3 years, lol.

    Mechanical precautions??

    A little oil has been lost out the gearbox but apart from that I'm told (by a good source) that all is ok with a little wear on the clutch. Am I right in saying new gearboxes are an expensive thing? What about clutches?

    A silver Trophy anyone?

    Looks like a silver cup not trophy;)

    Yeah I remember, but I don't track as much he has/does. She desn't drink a drop, even on trackdays...*touches wood again*.

    Mechanical precautions??

    Oh I know that mate and have done when I changed them before. Hopefully get a set soon.

    Prospeed...

    Louder the better I say. Best thing to do is phone Charlie at prospeed, sure he'll work wonders.

    Mechanical precautions??

    My 172 cup is coming up to 70,000 miles soon and as changing it isn't an option at the moment I wondered what should be considered? I had the cambelt changed at 65,000 ish and 'touch wood' all seems ok apart form a niggle with the top mounts which is getting looked at soon. I've heard from...

    Pics of my new valver

    can just see your cute little face in that. b'ring' it over...

    Eibach, K-Tec, BB Tuning Springs?

    Doubt the Eibachs will lower yours much at all but then they're the best ride quality. Apex will drop it but can be a bit harsher, nothing to worry about though. If you're not worried about the drop then get the Eibachs.

    Rear discs & pads for 172 cup

    Yeah, they've been on for a while now but tbh they do f**k all anyway.

    Creaky clutch pedal

    Get renault or whoever to look at it. Mine did the same and I found out it was rubbing on something and wearing out! But it does come back, lol.

    Wheel refurbishing...

    What about if you only have 1 set of wheels and need your car everyday?? If that wasn't an issue then I'd call you now cos mine need doing asap! Plus I've seen Floodie's cup and it looks spot on with black turinis.

    Rear discs & pads for 172 cup

    I never said I did clarty clart! As long as the bearings are pressed in, that's all. Fitting's a piece of pish! unless they've seized.
