I have an issue with the traction control. I don't care about the traction control itself but the light being on is an mot failure. It also brings the ABS light on sometimes too. Anyway anyone have a clue what to do with the following faults? I've replaced the steering angle sensor and I...

I bet it's more noticeable than using vpower or a remap.

You'll gear the car up so it will accelarate slower.

You won't be able to run standard 172/182 wheels with the PMS kit wiyh no spacers. You also need a longer socket too especially for the rears. But I'm veey pleased with my PMS kit.

Anything but EBC

Isn't a bit of trial and error or even common sense the way to go for your average trackday goer? I just picked my pressures cos it sounded good in my head. The car felt good to me so I'll go with that again. It's a shame I turned them blue but I dare say that was down to the 30 min session at...

I ran mine at 25 cold front and 27 cold rear.

I rate them, the grip is good and they don't roll over like normal road tyres do. On PE2s you could barely read the brand after a day at Mallory. The AD08s (apart from the blue tint on the edge) look good. Not like it really matters but almost unusable in snow.

Can a mod delete this thread please. Silly phone caused a duplicate.

So obviously can't be a good thing but how much does having the blue edges matter?

Yes, Due to the problems I had last time I was checking all day and they got a little nip up after the first run then that was it all day.

I've got the PMS stud kit and very pleased indeed. I could do no more than 15mins with standard bolts before they were loose. I did 30 mins at Oulton and not a problem at all, every stud keep it's torque.

As title really. When coming towards a corner and braking it didn't like going into 3rd. I wasn't heel and towing so learning/practicing that might help but anyone got any suggestions? The clutch feels good and its had new gearbox oil. Cheers

Like I said this is just my experience with my driving style. 1 set of pads killed on a cold winters day the other fine in summer with more miles.

Good news although these look like they will last a long time for me. I just wanted to show my experience. People constantly ask for comparisons. This is mine and with pics.

Must be the fluid then. My setup is the same and mine are very good. Better than my 200s and better than the 200T.

This is what my ds2500 looked like after 100(ish) track miles and about 2000 easy road miles. Track miles were at Donnington at zero ambient temp. No more than 15mins at a time. This is what pagid blue look like after 150 track miles and about 500 road miles. Track was Oulton, ambient...

Any pics of monaco 172?

Just to add. I drove the new 200T today on track. My brakes are much better.

My brakes are awsome. So good infact that I can't even reach their potential on the road as they have the potential to lock at any legal speed. Need to get the AD08S warm to really see what they can do. Standard calipers but with pagid blues.

If they're lower in the range than greenstuff they must be dangerously bad. Id just go with pagid from ECP.

Just buy a trophy then. It will be far cheaper overall with the bonus that its the real thing.

Can't you drill different holes or maybe send a pic to pms and they'll change the brace or send it un drilled?

I think you're right to worry. The top pic looks like there isn't enough metal to drill the holes. With mine which were a snug fit there was only a few mm to spare on drilling the holes.

Just had a full geo setup and my castor was 2.1 degrees or 2 degrees 10 mins. Not quite sure how it was stated. Mines a ph2 172 and just fitted new oe wishbones.

Renew everything steering/suspension wise; wishbones, trackrods, rack bushes etc. Then see what cash you have left.

Think I'm gonna try the PF97s as they are £60 cheaper.

Is the car up at both sides? Makes a huge difference. I normally stick summat in one of the holes to help lever it into place.

I need some good pads. I killed some ferodo ds 2500 in 1 day with ambient temp close to zero. I've been quoted £249 for a set of Carbotech 8s and I can get Pagid Blue for £184. What would you choose?
