    The Odyssey (Phase 1 172) - By Coops

    Quick clean of stereo panel, there's a few scratches on it to but better than it was so I'm happy enough for an old motor. And change of stereo aswell (I hoard stereos nearly as badly as wheels, lol) this is same as first stereo I ever bought for a car back in the day and it got nicked, so I've...

    Acceleration with lighter wheels

    Basically everything above is all the advice you need! 15", lightest you can find (I run OZ superleggera, 4.9kg a wheel) and either the Michelin or Yokos Budgie recommends

    Click when taking up drive and its not the driveshafts....

    I'd check all the engine mounts tbh, if you can make the noise by literally manually rocking the engine then sounds like kippered mounts.

    Cooksports or GRAMS springs? or possibly

    Ime cooksports sat pretty much the same as the h&r but the h&r ride slightly better, less crashy. Plus yet to see a h&r rust and snap. The eibach sportlines sit higher definately and tend to lead to front rake after time as they seem to settle more at the front with use

    Fitting Coilovers resulting in Lighter Steering

    And most coilovers are slotted for camber adjustment, even 5 years ago :-)

    Cooksports or GRAMS springs? or possibly

    I'm a h&r fan too. Run cooksports and eibach (sport and proline versions) and the h&r are by far my favourite. Having said that not tried grams and heard good things from other about them

    Race slicks shelf life?

    I've used pre loved slicks for years, even when completely bolloxed they offer so much more grip than any semi slick I've ever used. Currently on Michelin as the Dunlop I've used before are very soft and don't last long, so tbh of its Dunlop I'd suggest the seller is being honest

    ai me neither but they're winter wheels, so that sort of the point, can rag about in the salt and s**t with them and not worry :)

    Quick update, into winter spec so coilovers off, cup shocks and eibach sportlines on, 20mm front spacers reduced to 16mm and speedline Vegas (ratty wheels) fitted.  Cheers Ben

    Whiteline Rear ARB

    as above, jack up on beam, pop an axle stand under each jacking point on rear chassis and drop car onto those then just set the rear beam at whatever height to take the pressure off the bolts as you undo them

    Whiteline Rear ARB

    piece of piss tbh, just unbolt lower rear shocker bolts and rest just bolts round the rear subframe, half hour job max
  13. Coops Mk1

    PMS top mounts with Bilstein B14 coilovers.

    doh! after all that! basic nut and bolt check fixes it! gld you sorted it though, nothing worse than fitting shiny new parts and then getting a noise you think is from them

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    Lol! I find myself cycling wheels between all three cars all the time ;-)

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    Just sell them to me, much less hassle ;-) I'd say go silver though, I've always wanted silver Williams wheels and always ended up with every other colour, lol! Would look excellent on the phase 1 then imo

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    Lovely work, and agreed all about the phase 1, came to a choice for me again the RB would be the first to go for sure

    Remove ABS or not?

    I've never driven a car on track with ABS and I've never ever thought 'mmm could do with ABS this'

    AD08R tyre pressures

    ai, that low is more slick levels, I run my slicks at 26/26 front rear when hot and the semis same as road pressures 32/30 front rear but when hot

    The Odyssey (Phase 1 172) - By Coops

    Yeah they're very similar square on then more like the old prima maxi wheels in profile, they're growing on me more and more. I was thinking exactly same other day as I approached the car squarely side on at supermarket, some brembo would look decent I reckon, in odyssey blue perhaps...

    Small crisis, track rod end shat itself so quick pop to the motor factors for emergency parts and a splash about in the rain to fit the fucker. Happy Thursday! Lol! Came apart nicely, touch of heat shift the lock nut and jobs a carrot Old loosened off and freed from the hub In bits...

    Clio 182 suspension set up.. What do you run?

    I'm another vote for the standard cup shocks and H&R springs, they are a great setup, sit slightly lower than eibach sportlines but ride lovely. this is on my 182 I run vmaxx on the other car (phase 1 172), but only because I wanted cheap lows, it doesn't handle great on them but I don't find...

    Gear oil blowing through the breather

    ai level/fill hole is on the front of the box about halfway up, if you've filled it any higher than that (about half full basically) then it'll blow out all over
