    172 Strut Braces & Brakes

    wouldnt of though so, the front suspension on the V6 is fairly different...are the calipers specific to the V6 or are they off the safrane or laguna or something? better get out a tape measure and go down to you local dealer!

    Brake Pads

    leave EBC well alone, there are far better pad out there. Pagid are good and have a very high heat reange (600 deg i think) but take warming up. Ferodo DS2000 are great pads, and are good till about 450 deg (more than enough). Mintex 1144 pads are the same as ferodos basically but slightly...

    141kw!! (187hp) and 230nm torque!!

    UM ok.....hmmmm well have to wait and see, why couldnt it be done here in the UK then? there are only so many variables to the amount of fuel you push in, cause ther is only so much air the engine can work. and ignition timing will not gibve much on modern motors. sure it was on a standrd engine?

    172 Strut Braces & Brakes

    see if you can get some maxtorque iscs as i have been using these for a while now and they dont warp, well, 1 did, but that was becasue it wasnt mounted flat..my fault. CCC is my bible, true, there is too much interest in silly cars from people from max power, but that is where the money is...

    Anyone with Magnex on Mk2 172

    powerflow are always a mess as they have to keep loads of bends, link pipes, mandrel machines etc all at hand... i got a pwerflow dud to fix my exhaust, and he did a top job, but the top gear peeps are meant o be the ebst, and i know the guy up there (steve) and service has always been great...

    172 Strut Braces & Brakes

    172 Strut Braces & Brakes

    Wickid, ive raced since i was 8, and i dont have one in my 172, but in the clio cup cars i have raced, it does make it extremly tight at the rear. allot like a hard reared mini. might be the lack of weight in the rear, but it gets very unstable over bumps when braking. overall, not a huge...

    Anyone with Magnex on Mk2 172

    172 Strut Braces & Brakes

    look at "tyres for 172???" in the general forum. rear strut brace will reduce chassis twist, but leave no boot space....not that i care.

    ATTN: all Clio RT & RN owners

    In about 2 weeks time, i will have a selection of ported/flowed and port matched inlet & exhaust manifolds for sale. 1st step to a great engine to which i can port & flow test the head at a later stage if interested. If interested email me at Ching@iamwasted.com Cheers BenR

    Piper rally cams

    their stated power gains are never like what you really get. They usually use them on modded heads with better flow. you will see an inprovement, but probably not that much. do you have the specs? i.e lift, duration etc.....you mainly want to go for higher lift rather than longer duration...

    ECU for Clio

    yeah, you mentined that your running the K&N cone filter only...i will try to mod the 1.4 16V airbox to either take the cone filter or a replacement panel filter and suck in cold air only, with slver heat wrap (since its real hot in singapore).

    alloy wheel advice

    you raelly dont need to worry about roling radius, its such a small differnce that it wont matter until your doin 200mph, and then itll only make a few mph diff...and at that speed who cares if the speedos out. and you wont travel any faster with bigger wheels before anybody starts that...

    Can anybody explain to me

    yeah, i got the stuff from john today. cheers. i think that is still a bit expensive for a nova no matter what engine it got in it. But if you think its worth it, go for it. But the novas shell is notoriously weak and the front turrets can split from the shell, is it strenthened?

    Can anybody explain to me

    yeah, not t hard to achieve witha turbo. 1.6 8V right? just port the head extensively, as far as you dare!! especially the exhaust ports since its a turbo. Get a turbo profile cam if it hasnt got one already. what size is the turbo? i can port the head if you want, for about...
