40mm is nothing.

Nice Mk1 172 in the for sale section for just over £4k...

Well, that's a load off...

I defo wouldn't put Trophy wheels on my 172, ET45 is lame-o.

60mm minimum

Can you get exact aftermarket versions of the Recaros?

Just get them diamond cut.

Link still works for me!

Insurance for track days is a rip off in my experience, even if you do pay a lot, the excess can be thousands, so unless you actually write the car off it's just not work. For example, track day cover for the NSX is over £100, with something like a £4k excess, and it will only cover up to...

Looks like a nice car, shame your cs sticker isn't centered though! Would be perfect otherwise ;)

I am pretty sure this is the company... http://www.tts-performance.com/civicsupercharged.php

There is a company over here that claim to do one, but i haven't actually seen or heard of a demo model or customer car. They use Rotrex superchargers and have it on a Civic Type R demo at the moment. As much as 400bhp they claim.

Sacrilege!!!

Must be back of the grid then ;) Would expect it to have some one-off space frame or something fancy.

Not really, know a few people who have binned cars and said they crashed it on the road without any problems. You can avoid any trouble with the incident report by taking your plates off for trackdays, simple.

Because 'crazy' Special K had a barney about it. And we all must bow down to her...

Would love to get into rally cross. Shame it costs about a billion quid to build a competitive car! Do you know what chassis the Clio V6-alike is using?

I don't see the point in buying 'half adjustable' suspension. If you just drive on the road and want your nice soft ride then just get H&Rs. If you want to use the suspension seriously on track, then go for the Variant 3s or Blisteins.

Remap my peachy white ass. If we start talking tuning, then you have to compare a diesel turbo to a petrol turbo. Anyway. This thread is an exact replica of the last one, may as well lock it!

Audi had the rules changed specifically for them, and noteably use of turbocharger which is certainly no breakthrough. A Lola used a VW V10 tdi engine in 2004 and did it win? I'll tell you. No!

They are Pro Racer 1s, according to the Google search i did.

You're not cliokhunts brother are you? Torque is a twisting force, for acceleration, power is what matters top end.

They aren't very satisfying really, you either drive a cheap diesel that sounds like an old Transit van, or an expensive diesel and you don't hear anything. As an enthusiast, noise is important to me, normally helped by lots of revs!

Not keen on white, so i ignored you!

Nope, but if you want some 172 wheels which need a refurb with some nice Goodyear F1s i'm your man. I think white would suit the blue but personally it would be too attention grabbing for me. Would prefer anthracite.

Saw one on a Mk2 Ph1 Clio. Also had hooge vinyl Clio stickers down the side. Obviously a proud owner!

Hope Donna doesn't see this thread.

The biggest problem with lowering that much is bumpsteer (self steering) which is caused by varying toe angles. I don't know much about Hill Power, i know Stefan rates them highly, but a proper motorsport outfit (like Mark Fish) probably have all the equipment and experience to do a proper job...

I wouldn't draw attention to piddly OEM calipers myself...

I would take your money and buy myself an NSX, which sounds better, goes better and handles better than either of them :rasp:
