    Clio Cup Racer Roof Scoop fitted

    They do let a small amount of water in but nothing major. I followed a truck that was kicking up spray and you got the odd spot every now and then. I didn't have a speckled face or clothing either! Lol! Fitting one of these was by far, THE best mod I've made to my cup.

    Uprated wishbones

    I believe that pms use tubular lower arms on the subframe/hub assembly they built, but the difference is that they are straight arms not bent like these ones, with the front arm used to adjust camber and the rear to adjust castor. Most competition cars run with a similar style/setup to the pms...

    Uprated wishbones

    That pin WILL 100% elongate the bottom hole in the hub. That's assuming its not snapped beforehand of course!!

    ​Flol!

    Uprated wishbones

    There are so many flaws in their design its untrue. I mean you have to remove the rod ends from the subframe to adjust them for a start! The bracket for the arb will no doubt bend and deflect negating the effectiveness of the arb, and I won't even pass comment on the pins for the hubs! S**t the...

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    A 197/200 head needs adapting to suit a 1*2 cambelt setup. Easily done though - its literally 1x hole needs drilling and tapping. It must however be done accurately.

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    Blocks are not the same as a 200 has the water pump driven by the cambelt. You can put the pistons, rods and crank in from a 200 into a 1*2 block though but you need the cylinder head off one as well. Standard management will only run the dephaser the same way as it does on a 1*2 (constantly...

    ITB'd Road & Track Ph1 Titanium 172

    Re: Ph1 172 Glad to see the flywheel arrived Tom! Let me know your thoughts on if its made any noticeable improvements.

    Got caster yo

    Yes the cup racers did it that way to get the castor increase. You could use a pms wishbone kit and do the same thing if you have different length spacers machined.

    Painting rocker cover

    To paint the rocker cover whilst its still on the car is nice and straight forward mate. You need to fully degrease the rocker cover first to remove any oily deposits, then get everywhere you don't want painting masked/covered up. Next job is to give the rocker cover a quick going over with a...

    Read my tyre wear (track)

    Too high on the pressures and not enough camber IMO.

    Alignment settings for track! Any help please

    I hope you've used some schnorr washers to stop any movement mate. You'd be surprised how much it will move even if done FT.

    Alignment settings for track! Any help please

    Is this the Honda powered mk1 your referring to chip or the latest RB addition?

    Approved Rim Width Range for 15" 888's

    Well considering all the racers on here now run 205's as they give extra noticeable grip, I'd say yeah it's well worth a shot with the 215/50's. the only issue you may encounter is on the rear. You will probably find you need to roll the rear arch lips or run smaller spacers (assuming you have...

    My 172 Turbo

    Indeed you do mate! Let me know when your going and I'll see if I can get over at the same time.;)

    I'll be there mate! 80's touring cars sound awesome as well!

    172 Cup PAS pipework

    Cup with aircon is the same as a ff 1*2 mate. Simples. They're readily available 2nd hand as well

    172 Cup PAS pipework

    Cup set up is cup specific mate. Give Adam @ Renault parts Wolverhampton. He will know what your after. Look in the traders section for contact details.

    where to get 172 cup steering rack? cheapish

    I'm not entirely sure that a replacement rack from a dealer or reconditioned rack comes with the steering arms anyway mate tbh. I'm pretty sure the racks are the same on the 1*2's (other than a trophy) as well, it's just the arms that are different.

    Buckets comfortable enough to do 250 mile journeys in with no stops

    Recaro pole positions. Drove all the way to the nurburgring non stop (other than eurotunnel - obviously) in mine with no issues at all.

    Harness sticky?

    With proper fixed back bucket seats you can't use the standard seat runners mate (well not with my recaro pole positions at least) and you have to use universal seat runners. As for the bolts you want to use the high tensile type with a grade of 10.9. Stainless bolts are not an option either as...

    What size spacers

    20 or 25mm hubcentric spacers on the front will work ok with that offset at the front. 10-15mm hub spacers from M.A.D on here for the rear. You can add some extra rear camber at the rear with them as well if you want.

    If You had £700 to spend on suspension what would you do?

    Pure Motorsport top mount and strut brace package wouldn't be a bad addition.

    If You had £700 to spend on suspension what would you do?

    This tbh. You'll still have money left in your pocket as well I'd imagine.

    Another Clio 172 Cup Road/Track

    Good effort there Morgan!! I'd imagine the original item is a Valeo mate and they seem to come highly recommended as an oem replacement by a lot of people on here.
