Very true that! thanks mate

the springs i have are just very cheap ones from ebay. (got them because i had a broken one when first bought the car and had no money left) They lowered the car roughly 20mm but i need coilovers. Not bothered about the ride quality on road as i have always had lowerd/ Bagged cars. Haven't got...

as above are these any good? 08 plate 197 For the price they seem good but dont go much lower than what springs offer..... I use the car for 3 days a week road use then occasional track use. Have just lowering springs fitted atm so would i benefit...

Nice one lads thank you very much

i have toyosports exhaust on my 197. Still have standard manifold and pre cat too. It made 93db at 4.5k revs at Rockingham the other month.

Was just wondering is my 08 plate 197 supposed to have rear speakers? I removed the speaker grills and there's nothing there. But on the drivers side i found a speaker connection cable behind the trim...... So im confused. Never thought anything off it before as not all small 3 door cars...

Any idea of length and thread size ect???

Was going to change the rear disks and pads on the 197 today, untill I tryed removing the 13mm bolt that holds the caliper together. Totally ceased in. Can you buy replacement ones? Worried incase I round them off. Or any hints and tips would be great. Thank you.

soon as i get them fitted pal i will write a review :) and price is expensive.... but my mate who owns #trackaddict has a good thing going with tarox so i didnt pay much at all...... :track:

UPDATE!!!!! So I havnt drove the clio much since the last track day as the brakes needed doing. Got these bad boys now ;) So tarox on the front and standards going on rear. Also a couple of good pics from Rockingham :)

Update!!!!!!! So I did my first track day in the 197 on Saturday just gone. The only other trackday I did was in my 172, which was standard apart from stripping it out. This ended in me rolling it at Rockingham. See pics on previous page haha So this track day was back at Rockingham too and I...

Fitting new disks n pads soon to the rear. I have never done this before, Do I need a windback tool or anything special ?? Thank you.

Update! So after previous talk of brakes, last weekend I got the car onto my mates ramp and changed the front pads. Good job I did as the inner pads were wafer thin. (excuse the poor images my camera is fecked )  Put some performance friction pads in that I had from a mate, Aswell as new...
