    Geometry settings

    You need to get the tracking checked first before you go adjusting the camber mate. It's the tracking that's scrubbing your tyres NOT the camber. Aim for about 5 minutes toe out on the front. That's what I set a lot of standard cliosports up to and they don't wear tyres bad at all.

    Coilover options 182 cup HELP!!!

    You'd be better off with eibach/Cooksport springs on oe dampers over a cheap set of coilovers. This type of cars strong point is its handling. Don't ruin it with cheap tat. All imo of course, but buy cheap, but twice.

    Nick172Cup's 3rd! 'TrackCup' Progress Blog.

    Lol! That's because I'm training in him in the ways of the 'force'!! Which is basically how to work a Hoover and how to hide freshly acquired parts from his better half! ;) I'll await his arrival to the thread and a tirade of abuse now! Flol

    Quiet exhaust recommendations for 172 cup?

    I've got a btb stealth on my stripped out 172 cup and don't have any issues with noise at any speeds tbh. It's decatted as well.

    182 Manifold and a decent exhaust...

    ^^^this, or btb stealth is also a good option.

    Uncurable knocking!

    To check if the cv joints are goosed grab hold of the driveshaft (with the car on the ground) and see if there's any in/out movement from the joint. It should have none. Another possible cause of the knock could be the steering rack mate. It's internal so not a great deal you can do other than...

    why 197 cams on a 1*2?

    I may be able to let people know how the rs2 responds with 197 R3 maxi cams at some point in the future.

    cliosport......i could really do with a bit of help on handling :(

    How else would they be able to correct the camber mate? It's the only logical answer to this issue in my eyes tbh.

    cliosport......i could really do with a bit of help on handling :(

    What shock absorbers are you buying? Are they for a 172 cup by any chance? Reason I'm asking is the cups are wider track at the front courtesy of a different subframe. That means the wishbone is pushed further out so the only way to keep the camber on a cup the same as a normal 172 is to put the...

    Difference between itb trumpet sizes

    You could use the angled spacers that Jenvey sell on the ktec kit tbh. Just bolt them inbetween the body and the filter back plate (assuming it has one? Never paid much attention to it tbh)

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Getting the fundamental geometry correction is THE way forward. You could have 300hp and be the fastest in a straight line, only to have someone give you the bird with 180hp in the bends because they can carry more speed through the corner because their suspension is working correctly. Its just...

    Camber - Fast Road/ Track Use

    Hate to say it, but a corrected roll centre would also help to prevent this from happening even on sportlines tbh.

    Limit of standard rods

    Arrow rods if you want reliability and safety. Only aftermarket rods I'd fit. All the other stuff is cheap Chinese shite, and I don't give a monkeys toss who says different. Remember, buy cheap, buy twice.

    Lost Caster?!

    Tbh mate I doubt the group buy will happen, so to answer your question, no there are no plans to do more. It will just be myself and James that have these very unique hubs if that's what occurs.
