RC6 are better for track work ( I am currently using Rc6 pads on my 172)

Depends on what the car is used for and budget.

I had a set of Compbrake B4 4 pots fitted, I now run standard calipers, goodridge braided lines Brembo HC discs and CL RC6 pads. Stopping power is great, even more so with my R888 tyres fitted! IMO Clio 1*2 don't need 4 pots, however I do miss the lightness and looks of them though so may fit...

I presume you have checked all the coolant hoses are in place, and not split?

As above, change the thermostat.

You can get 421's to work with the standard ECU.

IIRC the white megane that crashed there last year didn't have a roll cage.

Knowsit Mark, I had visions of the radiator giving up/ failing as we go through Brussels lol.

That should be a good weekend. I did try and book a chalet at Linder Ferienpark for that weekend but they had no vacancies.

Quick Update: Nurburgring trip booked for April 22nd -25 :tongueout: So I have had to address a few issues with the car! The radiator is fine, but it's never been changed and starting to 'bulge' and the fins look a mess, not the best for a thousand + miles across Europe. I have replaced it...

The driving standard at the ring is much better than a Combe action day ;) Back to the 'ring again it a couple of weeks time :)

Ouch :(

I got my last 2 from ECP and they fitted fine. However some people have had issues with the correct fittment from ECP.

The plug is the same! As I said above, they just plug in the same connectors and work fine.

I did this a couple if months ago it's a piss of piss TBH, they just plug into the existing connectors auto lights still work too ( on MK2 172 non cup)

I have this Lifeline QR boss fitted to my 172. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/bosses-fitting-kits/lifeline-quick-release-bolt-on-boss

It may well be the dogbone mount mate. I now have a PMS shifter and powerflex dogbone mount and my gearshift is great.

Somethings not quite right IMO, I never had any problems with my 172 selecting gear on road/ track with the OEM set up.

That looks great :)

Yes he did. Thanks for the lift today Pete :)

Me too mate, I like Castle Combe :(

Yes please mate.

It might be coming in from the boot area, check the two black grommets either side these often leak.

I got my last 2 driveshafts from ECP and they have been absolutely fine.

I am not taking my 172 to Combe mate, otherwise you would be more than welcome to ride shotgun.

TBH I would be very happy with around 190bhp and a bit more weight loss :) Cheers Russ, hopefully catch up with you at the Castle Combe action day. As per text, cheers Oli :)

Yes mate, Good little cars.

Today I replaced by silvervisons with the OEM indicator bulbs and went out for a 70 mile drive on my favourite B roads. The engine etc is running very well, I need to fit new spark plugs, radiator and give it a good polish ready for the summer. Hopefully get this year's first 'ring trip booked...

I am in the same boat as you. I also don't want boost for my 172. I did want a RS2, but now think I will end up going down the ITB route and very much like the look of PMS itb kit.

Not really, my car has the 98 Ron map, itg maxogen air filter ktec stealth/ now PMS exhaust and the 5k 'kick' has pretty much gone.
