I have done lots of track days on 15' and 16" wheels, the big thing you will notice on 15's is pick up/acceleration feels a lot better. At Castle Combe camp corner on 16's is 3rd gear, on 15's is 4th gear. Just one corner on one track but it does show how much difference a lightweight 15"...

If you want to sell PM mate, local to you :)

I thought the black 182 was the quickest when I was there watching the practice runs? What happened to him in the timed runs?

Are the PH1 and PH2 182 the same then? I thought it was just PH2 172 Cup that were thinner?

So I need some more room on the back of my Clio and have been looking at ways to narrow the rear track (I run wide wheels with a low offset) I noticed that 172 rear stub axles are about 8mm thinner each side than 182 ones. Can I just run 172 ones on my 182 therefore lowering the track by 16mm...

Its more fun tho when its a treat!! Mine only comes out now and then these days, mostly because its not a nice place to sit for more than 20 minutes lol

Surprised I haven't see this about mate, I live just off the A4174 ring road :)

I can do anything really mate. Work till 5pm in the week so after that or a weekend :)

Combe is a great track, you will love it! Be sure to come say hello on the day :)

As a daily its great tbf, ive just changed jobs tho and now do 10 miles a day lol so don't need the economy. Will miss the torque tho!!

Thats cool :) No my LY is gone now, I was using it on track and got scared lol. I have a Megane Sport 175 as a daily and a BG 182 for track use now altho I keep looking at LY R26's... I did love the colour!!

Definitive is a media company I run mate. www.servingtodefine.co.uk :)

Jon? Known him years yeah :)

I am mate yeah, im the owner!

Im Bristol too, would be up for a meet. Got a track 182 and Megane 175 :)

Sounds similar to mine then. Im having a play with it the weekend, see if I can find out whats what!!

What sort of noise is it mate? I seem to get a knock from my passenger side rear over uneven ground/bumpy ground!

Mine will be here today so il bolt it on and when next out on track see if I can feel anything other than placebo!! Worse case it stops my helmet hammock flapping around in the back when pushing!!

Even with a rear coilover unit? I understand on standard suspension, no/little load through the top of the shocks.

I will report back then. I run a whiteline too. Anything to help keep it flat and stiff :)

What bout if you run a rear coil over set up? I have just ordered a strut brace and I run the GAZ with rear coil over setup, figured it must help by tying the tops together?

Ahhh far to much to put back then. I have no headlining, door cards etc. Shame :(

So just the rear bench would need to go back in?

Id love to do this, where do I stand with my spec: Stripped car but with buckets and harnesses, no cage, full standard dash.

The rear shock mount, goes in place of the standard rear top mount. Did you notice any difference? I am looking at the black race version of it.

Has anyone used them? Looking at the black series ones for my track car which runs GAZ coilovers with a rear coil over unit. Thanks

Give mine a go first mate, then if you don't like it you have only wasted £60/70 but there isn't anything to not like. Pickup felt lots better and gear changes smoother, not that you need it with that PMS Shifter ;)

I have a new standard gearbox, solid dogbone, new standard upper engine with powerflex black insert, engine goes nowhere and a fraction if the cost of the others :)

I have my old 182 wheels with Federal RSR tyres on that I will be replacing with 15's, anyone got an idea on what I should put them up for? Tyres have done a couple of track days but have a few left in them still :)

Thanks for that, I am fitting mine this weekend and this info is very useful. Looks like I will be needing some harder springs on order tho!!
