Thanks Daniel, nice one :)
Removed the damn offside subframe/ slider part of the seat (the broken bit), whilst I was there I removed the 15mm vibration mount thingies to get the seat slightly lower.
Now all I need to do is find a breaker yard, to replace said broken slider thing lol
I...
Is there anything to be aware on when disconnecting the seatbelt pretensionors, and/ or seat airbags, ie: will they go off if I just disconnect them?
Need to remove the seat from the subframe on my wifes Ph2 172, as the plastic runner thing has broke... grrr
Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project
You know what, that could be very possible thinking about it...
Had a call from coilover company to say they're starting to make my set in a week, and I should receive them in 3 weeks time, so Thursday 2nd July.
My other Cobra Evolution bucket seat will...
Re: PH1 172 Track Car, abit special *ITB update*
Car is looking phenominal mate, really looks hard out there on track!
Cadwell is an awesome circuit isn't it!
How much was the diff, and where from? Plate or ATB?
*added - just noticed on the pics, its a Quaife, so can only assume its a...
cheers f0xy, I've been constantly watching your project thread too!
I'm looking out for some solid top mounts, to complement the coilovers, I presume there is a huge difference between Comp-Brake, AST, Mark Fish and K-Tec ones...?
Just ordered some coilovers allound, opted for 450lb allround, with Jays help deciding - cheers bud :)
8" open length front and rear, 2.25" ID at front, 1.9" ID at rear
Should be here soon, along with new seat & exhaust system, then I can start progressing :)
Used the search, and come up with nothing definitive.
Referring mainly to a Ph1 172 here
Want to know that if rear turretting is necessary to install rear coilovers? or is it just recommended?
Another question, if necessary - is that purely for strength purposes?
ie: the top shock mount...
Thanks for the comments/ interest chaps.
Opted for coilovers allround instead of doing what I did on the Nova on the rear, that way it's easier for me to change and mess around with spring rates, and lengths accordingly :)
Bought a stealth exhaust system today (2 silencers), along with a KTR...
You're certainly correct on that front! the main reason I left the adjusters in was for cornerweighting.
Loving yours btw, replied on your thread, took me nigh 2 hours, but well worth it :D
Hiya, done a search but didn't find anything.
Is there a list of breakers/ scrap yards that are well known for Renault parts?
Just wondered if anything like this existed?
Thanks
OK, so it's took 1hour 47minutes to read all 57 pages of your build thread, all I can say is fantastic work.
Very impressed by how you go about things, reminds me of someone lol
Took note of a few things that I'll probably need when I start molesting mine, and getting it sorted
Very...
Awesome, plenty of info for me to getting into there, thanks for your time in replying :)
Secondly, apologies for not know you're Jay... I'm still gonna call you Burp if ever we meet :D
Ok, so I can remove all the glass from the car, which is good news, I'll get a sheet of polycarb ordered...
Burp, thanks for the link - another one added to my favourites that I'll begin to read ASAP :)...
OK, so the first few questions I have, is...
Due to all the windows being bonded in (rear quarters and rear screen) as opposed to just held in by rubbers (ala Nova), does this mean they offer...
No way, so you're the Burp on my YouTube channel... wicked! haha
Already I'm after a set of decent coilovers, another Cobra Evolution bucket seat, or Suzuka... a plate diff too.
I do have some track-orientated questions about the chassis on the Clio's, is it best to ask here? or better to...

davesport172 - apologies if I had upset you, I presume you're the guy with a lime green diamond badge on the bonnet, and green detailing on the wheels?
