Clio 172 Cup + AST + KW Content inside

[-J-]

Purchased ben_p's KW V2 coil overs off him that were forsale.

Had them fitted along with my AST Adjustable top mounts I got in the recent Group By on here, by www.wheels-inmotion.co.uk who I cant recommend enough, Top service and a good price, Had all the Caster and Camber set up to suit Track day's

AST Mounts in their new home -

And the car Sitting on its new Coil Overs -

Had to cut out a bit of the arch liner today as it was Scrubbing when conering hard, and hammer out a small bit of the metal work under the arch where it was scrubbing but hopefully thats all sorted now, I'm yet to take it out for a drive!

looks spot on mate!

 

[Coby.]

Stunning..... Those Top Mounts are Sex

Cool setup, but the front looks very high considering.
On the top mounts, why are the top platform parts bolted to the turrets in different directions? ie drivers side facing the passenger side and passenger facing the front?

 

[ben_p]

Just set sup for caster by the looks of it, maybe one was already running high caster from factory!?

Looks sweet btw!

 

[Tigger]

Looks mint!

 

[JR]

looking good

 

[Fletcher]

Top mounts look great!

 

[scott1205]

i like it the height is perfect as well

The front is down probably about 2.5" and the back buy about 1.5" i would say, I have sorted out about 99% of the scrubbing I was getting from the front by cutting away at the arch liner a little.

Just need to work out where its still catching, it only does it on hard cornering.

Avenue is not to bad, i just drive straight down the middle of the road

Little Bushey Lane is the killer!

 

[M8XY G]

Yes mate LOL, that bump is a bit better now they have fixed the patch of road that was missing though!

Chiltern Avenue, Turn right along Coldharbour Lane past the School FTW

 

[clio_luke]

looks awesome. seems about the right height to handle well, not too low. top mounts look great!

The Top Mounts are Great, Seems to have cured allot of Creaking and clonking I was getting from the OEM ones Although that noise had now been replaced with bumps and bangs from the Solid Damper set up LOL.

Steering is so much more direct now as well, i sometimes catch myself coming into a bend and thinking S**t to fast as you just dont get any body roll anymore.

 

[Brett]

Fantastic stance. Loosk epic.

Well After a quick drive last night, The scrubbing is still there

Its improved a bit where I cut away a little of the arch liner, Looks like I will have to have another look after a few more miles for Scrubbing marks.

[shiyan]

you nabbed those V2s before I saw them

 

[Jon.L]

so this is why it was recieving a good spruce the other day!

 

[kyle_sxi]

does anyone know if these can be bought for a astra ?

FRont isnt higher , look sills they are going down. Hopkins did the same whn i had H&R's on my 172. I think its just the fact that the wheel doesnt fill the arch and gives an illusion.
