Rob, you car is SO high!!!! http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1072746322__floor.jpg

Hiya!!!!! Tis mine!! Thankyou please

It looks straight anyway!! How did you get on with that rear mount??? its a very smart bit of engineering!!!

You now have a Real 172 Dan????? Flame red!!! Nice!!!

Ben + Tony, just out of interest, what power do you think mr ROAMER would get if he fully balanced his engine and added a "BENR SPECIAL HEAD JOB"??? currently at 212bhp

my first clio (3700miles on the clock from new!!) http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1068587571__ooops.jpg

sorry jon1978, have to disagree with ya, you must have been running with the wrong offset, my motor with 3 people in the back (its 110mm lower than std without anyone in the back) sit with a good 1/2 inch of rim inside the arch with no problems (well accept when the wheel bearings go every...

Sounds like they havent put it back on right and its catching on the horn sensor which goes quite far round the inside of the wheel, its fairly simple to pull off, if you look behind it youll see two metal pinns on the sides and it clips at the bottom. Pull the middle of the air bag and itll pop...

you can get them for £17 IIRC from halfords of £28ish from K-tec check if you have "Lucas" on the calipers theyre R5 GTT pads believe it or not!!!!

Its not that hard to DIY, the back takes 10min and the front about 1hr 30min

Unzip it???????

Yeah ill do it, Roamer??? wanna be the tea lady????

youll need 5mm spacers IMO, what PCD are they???? make sure theyre 4x100

Rich i "might" be selling my K-tec twin 3inch, ill let you know

No youll be fine (pic of mine with 3 in the back) http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1072746322__floor.jpg Chris didnt pay anything IIRC!!!! cos i lowered it FREE OF CHARGE!!!! (he has my old springs BTW)

na there isnt conor!!!! Just dont use the brakes and keep your foot down!!!!!! Thats what i do!!!!!! = 1 beaten CUP!!!! (Yozzas)

eh??? the std manifold is stainless aint it???? Rob why do you need 4pots????

yep as long as your on about a new shape clio??? clios from 1998 onwards can go 60mm on 17s no rubbing (dependant as Rob says on the offset of the wheels)

Ive had mine the longest (since July 2001) and done 49000miles and its been fine (and its driven very hard!!!!!) few rattles here and there, but thats more due to me pissing about with it!!!!!

yeah itll be miles away from the bump stops!!!!!!!! Ive got the same car on FK coilovers (custom low) 100mm front 110mm rear (PS lass, ive joined the que!!!!!;))

tell them your mate has the same as you and he was ok to lower I know chris had the free insurance and they just bumped his excess up

Yeah the quickest a 1.2 16V has done the 1/4 mile in is 18.0sec (soon to be beaten!!!!)

OMG!!!!! MARRY ME PLEASE????? (i guess your female from your name)

No, no probs but now its 100mm drop ive had to replace every single wheel bearing!!!!!! (Y plate car!!!!)

SPAX - hell no (just my opinion!!!) and Rich 40mm???? na mate 60mm!!!!!

Its half the price of the Turbo conversion The reason why no one else has it done is because it seems everyone is far too concerned about their "warranty" also no one has done a 172 in the UK before and documented it and point blank, NO ONE HAS HAD THE BALLS!!!!

Fly by wire is thrown in the bin, simple enough!!!!

On a clio i assume????

yeah LOADS OF PATIENCE!!!! It can be tricky getting them to line up, the weight is all supported from the rear clamp (centre section/back box clamp) Hard to explain how to line it up, you have to get the centre section mounted as high as possible (and make sure the clamp on the CAT is tight)...

Was it done on a level surface??? (stupid, question, but you never know!!!!) Also did he tighten up the track ends???? (as above in brackets!!!!)
