What profile were the cams??

I saw it at Castle Coombe yesterday, looked quick on the straights. Does it have a Quaife diff to get the power down through the corners??

Whats the torque figure like??

Winston, what mods are you running??

Nah, you need one of these ...... http://www.clio172.com/images/sticker.jpg

pep87, I have some Mintex 1155s for the front, unused and in original box, yours for £50 if you want then, cost me £87 new. PM or e-mail me at mailto:paul_d_wicks@yahoo.co.uk">paul_d_wicks@yahoo.co.uk if interested.

You shouldnt have a problem at Goodwood, my brother took his stripped 106 Rallye fully decatted with Devil backbox and easily passed the noise test, didnt get anywhere near the limits. Ive seen lots of exotic cars inc Scoobys, Evos and TVRS, who havent had a problem with noise.

Paul_CTR http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com is still up and running. Ive got a new site http://www.tegtyper.co.ukwww.tegtyper.co.uk which I will upload soon.

Rich-D Ive got an Integra TYpe R ..... after rolling my 172 (the shells very strong you know!!), a few months ago :sick: Simply an amazing car on the road, even better on the track straight out of the box. 9k rev limit takes some getting use to!!

You might want to consider an DC2 Honda Integra Type R (original one), the best late plate low milage can be picked up for £10k. If you want a raw drivers car then this is the Daddy, as EVO magazine says "One of the best drivers cars we know, too raw for some". Dont be put off by the raw bit...

The Guvner do you have a Mk 1 or Mk 2 172, what exactly is wrong with the tyres?

Flipper have a look at http://www.clio172.com/trackdays/trackdays.htmlthis page on my website. It might also be worthwhile downloading a lap of Brands from my brothers http://www.106rallye.co.uk106 Rallye website to get an idea of lines etc. http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

To be honest I would use Castrol Reponce Super DOT 4, just as good and much cheaper.

Best performance upgrade is to upgrade the springs and dampers, no extra stress on the engine = no drop in reliability (yes I know its a french car)

Better value than Tarox, are http://www.wilwood.comWilwood brakes, available from http://www.raldes.comRally Design. My brother has drilled and grooved disks, 4 pot callipers, competition pads and Dot 5.1 fluid, though Castrol SRF DOT 4 (£9.52 vs £45.04)!!! is much cheaper and exceeds DOT 5.1...

Rhys, 26th Oct at Donny is free (Clio Cup and Forumla Renault) want to talk to a couple of Cup teams to see if a few bits would bolt onto std 172, I think there are about 80 Clios going. On October 4th (next Sat), Im doing a trackday at Donnington to test out my new suspension, come along...

Ive got the sportlines fiitred to my MK 1 172 (30mm actual drop, lowered 20mm as standard), along with Koni adjustable dampers. Cant say what the springs are like with the standard dampers, but on the softest setting with the Koni dampers it tightened everything up bodyroll was reduced by a...

Going to get a decat for mine, only problem is it due for an MOT mid December and it will bloody fail. Dont want to have to take it on and off. Rhys are you going to Donnington on 26th October??? http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

http://www.elite.comElite in Rainham, Essex will do it, next door to Kent. Speak to Keeth. http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

I presume its a Devil decat from Automotiff, how much did it cost? What about the lamba sensors, I know this always comes up. Did you fi it yourself? http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

Probably my brothers 106 Rallye you saw at Castle Coombe, buts it got alot more stickers now!!!!!!!!!!! Everythings uprated apart from the engine, corners well fast. http://www.rallyetrackdays.co.uk/images/trax04/Dscf0008.jpg

What you need is a Sparco jobbie like mine. http://www.clio172.com/images/sparco_wheel.jpg http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

Supersprint or Devil would be my choice. http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com

Not as low as some, but dropped 30mm all round with Eibach sportline springs and Koni adjustable dampers. Thinking about having the alloys powder coated black as well. http://www.clio172.com/images/after_lowering.jpg

LOL = Lots of laughter ....

------------------- Different manufacturers favour ride/handling in road use...just dont get koni! -------------------------- Rob, Koni dampers or springs, why not?????

I have, but I cheated and got the garage to do it, why what do you want to know? http://www.clio172.comwww.clio172.com
