If they did I'd have one tomorrow!

I used to have a 197 and now have an EP3, in my opinion the brakes and handling are better in the Clio but the Civic pulls stronger.

Cannock isn't what it used to be :(

Totally rigged IMO.

Cheers. :)

Eibachs are about 20-25mm and H&R's about 35-40mm.

I've driven a Leon Cupra and I didn't particularly like it, and the rear visibility is awful. If you want economy and practicality this is my suggestion... http://www.themotorhouse.co.uk/car_details.aspx?vid=42933 They do a great diesel version, of course lol.

H&R dude, if you're going to change it then you might as well go for something noticeable. You won't notice a great difference with Cup springs alone.

My girlfriend wants to see what her RB197 will look like with H&R springs, anyone?

30-40mm is an approximate figure.

If your car has Cup suspension I wouldn't go for H&R's as the ride gets a little crashy, otherwise if you have the non-Cup suspension they're not too bad. H&R's are also slightly lower than Eibachs and similar brands.

The Renaultsport App is a bit of a gimmick, it's not particularly accurate. Realistically most drivers will struggle to achieve the 6.9 to 60 quoted by Renault. I only managed 6.9 in a remapped and stripped 197 weighing 1260kg, with a perfect launch using professional measuring equipment at...

Nah it's still got the BMX plate on, so you probably did see me. I haven't decided what I want yet, but I need something a bit 'special' if you know what I mean!

Nothing really Russ, I've decided not to mod the Civic any further as I don't think I'll be keeping it much longer. It's a great car but I need something more unique, and the Civic isn't enough! What are your future plans, keeping the Golf for a while longer?
