    172 Spacer advice for 15” wheels with brembos

    Hi guys, Fitting brembos on my 172 today running 280 discs. The caliper has been machined to fit 15” wheels. I have 15” team dynamic e40 (1.2 15x7.0 e40 4x100 60.1 B53) . Tried to fit the wheel on without spacers and it was a no go as the brembo is hitting the wheel. Tried adding a 10mm spacer...

    i need to get my 172 half cage powder coated in black. Can anyone recommend someone around high Wycombe (Buckinghamshire) who offers this service? I have had a quote for £100 but that seemed expensive after hearing of far cheaper prices on this forum.

    Help Fitting Luke 4 Point Harness onto a 172 Cup

    Thank you for the reply, I have just today ordered a half cage so should be with me in 2 week, I may however do your technique as a temporary measure. Can you confirm the eye bolt sizes required and do you have any pictures of the left side of the seat mounting you talk about?

    Niall's BG 182

    Yes I believe so from speaking to KAM but he explained it messes up the rear damping setup which is why the height should be adjusted via the spring

    Here is a video showing the BC racing kit in action on track.. they are a night and day difference compared to the bilstein b14 however I do think the b14 as a road setup are awesome! You should get a sense of how neutral the car is, also running a pms arb on hard setting. It took me about 6...

    Best to buy the bilstein b14 height adjuster for the rear springs... KAM STRICTLY said don't touch the rear shock to adjust the height

    Help needed on Next Stages of my track day 172 Cup

    Managed to fix it, when I fitted the damper the knob is not installed, what happened is when I installed it I must have managed to get dirt inside the bore, I tried spraying wd40 in the hole when in situ, didn't work so I had to take the damper off the car to enable me to turn it upside down to...

    Help needed on Next Stages of my track day 172 Cup

    The reason I ask is when the garage who did the last height change set it up when I measured the arch to wheel height it came out as 11cm front and 10cm rear - the guy who set it up was experienced in race car setups, the rake looked good I.e. Pointing down forwards

    Help needed on Next Stages of my track day 172 Cup

    I assume the 10ml to 15ml is measured based on the front and rear sill height to make sure the rake is correct or am I basing this on the arch to wheel measurements ?

    And this is good for pure track use the settings, I have 1.2 15" alloys on order but initially I will be using 16" turinius with sticky tyres, from 16" to 15" will I have to change the full setup again?

    Yeah it was the rear I am talking about, I understand the front end. I will go for the larger spacer at the rear, just to confirm the spacer goes on the bottom of the spring?
