Hi all, 172 standard engine, 63mm supersprint exhaust with no centre silencer. Standard exhaust manifold and cat.... Will this exceed 98 decibels (donningtons track sound levels)??? I currently have a big stupid after market back box that is quite loud and does nothing for looks or...

i had the same problem, i add a little extra magifoam and don't wet the car first. Seems to work a lot better.

Thanks guys, Just wonder wheels and a bit of elbow grease, followed by auto glym wheel sealant.

Corrected the tracking, added a little toe out and put some new 15" wheels on.

I posted the original thread in the wrong place (doh! sorry jesus/cub) so started it here in the correct place. Dirty wheels now as clean as can be, on the car and took it for a spin. Considering they are second hand and only touring tyres with one budget they held of ok, plenty of grip and...

Managed to find myself some bargain 15" wheels on ebay. White multi spokes with a nice blue line round the rim that will go nicely with the cup colour. Not the best tyres in the world (bridgestone turzana's) but about 5mm of tread left all round. Gave them a weigh and they're about 3kg lighter...

Bought the above 172 cup 6 months ago and was wondering if anyone knew who owned it previously as would like to know what mods it has in the engine as it ran 172.5bhp on a dyno the other week.

I'm after some 172 cup front shocks and top mounts. Where is best to get them from? The trader Wests renault isn't replying on here???

So if just a white matk on rears they're not cup springs?

Autobrite berry blast endurance trim and tyre gel is fantastic! Lasts a life time and cheap too.

I know i'm not too keen on it either, it'll do for now though.

Cheers guys.

Ok, thanks everyone for the replies. Had a look at all sorts of reviews, seems like you can look for weeks n weeks n weeks. Spoke to the garage and the best tyre they can get in this size that i've seen good things about dry and wet are the conti sport contact 3's. Happy with the price so...

Bought my clio 172 cup a couple weeks ago and been tryin yo sort a few bits for it mechanically. Been dying to detail it and finally got the time to do it yesterday. 4 hours hard graft but soooo worth it. me and my mate have bought it as a road/track day car so not gunna do much to it...
