    Weld in Seat Boss Top Hat Inserts

    Anyone got a link to these I bought a set off a member on here and like a dick I've gone and lost them. They weld in place of the existing seat mounting holes meaning that you don't need to be getting under the car to un-bolt your bucketseat subframe each time you want to remove it. I can't even...

    Which bucket seats?

    I plump for the Suzuka then mate it's slap bang in the middle of your price range and a really nice seat to boot, great support but still usuable on a daily basis plus no issues using it at the Ring. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/seats/cobra-suzuka-pro-fit-fibreglass-seat Rich

    Which bucket seats?

    What's your budget per seat mate? I'm a real fan of the Cobra line of seats, The Imolas are great if you have to live with it on a daily basis enough support but still easy enough to get out of, the Suzuka are the next step up with much higher leg supports (a really nice seat and IMHO still...

    Fitting cup brake set up, is it worth it?

    No the RC6's are so savage it just chews up the discs up I go through 2 to 3 pair of discs in a season. Rich

    Fitting cup brake set up, is it worth it?

    I seem to be the exception to the rule never had an issue with either pulling to one side or reliability (touch wood) in over 2 seasons on the hills. And i'm seriously hard on the brakes: Rich

    Fitting cup brake set up, is it worth it?

    Am I the only one that likes my ABS? On my Ph1 it's unobtrusive and only comes in when you really need it. I'm running RC6 pads and 888's thou so this will probably give way more mechanical stopping power than a standard car. Rich

    Spacers 'guide'/info

    Cheers mate, no rubbing although but I run Gaz GHA full coilover all round 650lb rear springs and 500lb front so there's very little movement I just use it as a Hillclimb car so doesn't see alot of road use (I don't think my spine could take it for very long now, I used to drive it to and from...

    Adjustable Brake Bias

    As Tony says really, on a Clio the brakes are heavily bias towards the front anyway and that's the way you want to keep it. Rich

    Advice on where to go for diff install?

    Speak to Mark Mayfield aka @NorthloopCup top bloke and can do a whole box rebuild if required, he'll probably talk you into a Gripper thou :wink: Rich

    Blue Book Changes

    As Graham has said no changes to Road Going Production Class, only an addition of the Standard Road Going Class (which may not be included in some championships) As for tyres there's certainly rumors afoot, speaking to Avon they said they had no intention of making the old ZZR's compatible for...

    Should something be plugged into this?

    I left mine unplugged for about 2 weeks after fitting the PMS Air Con delete kit I didn't notice any difference, although I have plugged it back in now. On a Ph1 there's also alittle one wire plug next to it which doesn't appear to plug into anything. Rich

    Fitting Small Fuel Tank

    Which championship do you run in mate? I've been doing the MHC for the last 5 seasons but I'm going to do the Leaders next year as well. I've considered doing something with the fuel tank but I run in Road Going Production Class so you can't just start running fuel lines through the inside of...

    Spec Me : Track Day/Sprint Tyres

    I asked this very question to a Scrutineer at Shelsley and he has asked the question many times for the MSA to define "Model" which they won't! So he goes by what's on the log book so a Clio is a Clio whether is a 1.2 DCi or a V6. Hence why Lotus 340R are allow despite the fact they only made...

    Track car coilover spring rates......

    I run 500lb up front and 650lb on the rear, and everyone says that must be so twitchy and horrible to drive, I can assure you it isn't and handles great. Rich

    Scrub Radius- How much of it?

    I'm going to buck the trend, I run 25mm spacers up front with 2.5 neg and 8mm spacers at the rear also with 2.5 neg Toyo R888 SG Compound 205/50/15 888's fitted all round. And to me it handles great, I do have roll centre hubs, full coilovers front and rear with large poundage springs (setup...

    Black Clio 172 for Autosolos and other speed events

    You'd need to have a Top 12 Car to be doing anywhere near 20 seconds at one of the shorter hills lol Personally I love Hilclimbs, racing around on a airfield surrounded by cones is not for me. But you pay your money and do what you love. Rich

    Agggh! The endless track coilover and spring rate debate!! Help!

    I use my Ph1 172 for Hillclimbing and currently run 500lb fronts and 650lb rears as you can see from this photo 500lb springs up front still isn't enough nor is the camber (currently 2.25 neg but needs to be 3.0 neg) To keep the ratios front to back the way I like I think I'm going to go 650lb...

    Renewing Whittling ARB Bushes

    I'd like to know this too, be good if I could replace them with a similar compound to the Polyflex Black Series as that's what the rest of the car has fitted. Rich
