I'm having a turbo installed and probably have not thought about a minor problem. Are the current brakes good enough for a turbo? Or does the calipers need upgrading? It's only a low pressure but seeing as I've not had a go in one it's difficult to tell. Already have braided lines which will...

Firstly sorry about the question but don't know what would be best. Im looking for a lightweight wheel to be very similar looking as the 172 cup alloys. What I'm not sure about is size? I'm reading 15" but would the size effect the speedo / mileage? Also I see you can select the "off set". What...

I've recently bought a top mount (172 cup) which looks like it just sits with the original mount. They look fairly straight forward to change, but are they? Any special way or things I need to watch out for? Had a search but not found my answer. Thanks

Hi, Ive got a cup and i was wondering IF there was any way of loosing some Kg on this car without completely stripping it? I want to use it for track days but also would like it as daily user. Any options of lighter parts available? Is it worth it?

Hi done a quick search with no answer. I'm ip to the point of loading my new 97+ file but when I select write ecu the files open on my computer but all my files are empty? It's like it's opened a different part of my laptop. I'm using windows 8.1 Becoming very frustrating as I'm so close...

Thinking about fitting a short shifter. I know some of you will have them fitted. Are they worth it? (Never had one) Also are they hard to fit? Any recommendations of where to get one if they are worth while. Thanks!

Hi, After reading a thread, im just wondering what is classed as a high miler for a 1*2? I used to have a Volvo 850 t-5r yellow estate @ 145K. and that was classed as fine. Would these engines be good for 150k? Or am i being stupid? Before buying my 172 come across a few "lost miles" on the 85k...

Hi, Im new to the Clios so im interested to see what a 172-182 can give certains cars a run for there money on 0-60 and general performance. Would Civic Type-R be one? Obviously not talking about heavily modded Clios.

Hi my first post so be gentle. I have just got a Clio 172 cup (53 plate) and done some research with ARB / strut brace. From what I've read strut braces are a waste of time. But the rear ARB will make a difference (best for dry weather)? I'm planning to do track days suspension is stock. What's...
