    Albi Blue 200 >> BMW E46 Track Car

    When I ran DS1.11s I found they wore the discs relatively quickly and left ridges rather than a nice flat surface on the disc. They are a very good pad and were my first introduction to just how good the brakes can be on the Clio!

    Albi Blue 200 >> BMW E46 Track Car

    You'll hear all sorts of opinions on brake pads just like tyres. Try a few different ones and find what works for you, particularly the price / performance / durability balance. What you will find is that the ds3000 will be in a different league compared to the mediocre standard pads. I have...

    Rockingham #Trackaddict day

    Yep, that was me; was a fantastic day with the only downside being that it was a bit over subscribed. Just in the process of giving my car a really thorough clean and sorting out the rear arch and wheels ready for sale as I have bought a meg 250. Hopefully you will find a decent white cup...

    275 Megane

    That makes some used cars very expensive.

    Albi Blue 200 >> BMW E46 Track Car

    Oh that is bad news. I have suffered the same issue before. It will either be an exploded clutch slave cylinder, or if you have bled the clutch recently the clip may have come off if it wasn't seated correctly.

    Clio 200 FF with Cup Pack - is this a good deal?

    Also the cambelt was changed a little later than it should be. Does this suggest maintenance has been neglected?

    Which Dogbone Mount Is Correct?

    I didn't know there are two for the Clio like there is for the megane mk2. Think it will be a case of getting under the car and looking. I am pretty certain my 2009 200 has the one on the left.

    The cup pack and full fat!

    Brake Discs & Pads (F&R) Suppliers?

    Yeah, plain discs are fine for track days. Drilled and grooved more for aesthetics.

    Dale's Glacier White 200 cup

    Spanner for the bleed nipple and a bottle for the waste fluid. The eezibleed kit comes with all the pipes and adaptors you need.

    Are these tyres safe?

    Yes perfectly ok. Stick then on the front and those rubber deposits will soon wear.

    Dale's Glacier White 200 cup

    Get an eezibleed kit as it makes the job easier on your own. You'll have no problem doing it yourself from the work you have done so far.

    HELLO! In the market for an RS200 :)

    Yes I know the normal one has climate. The buyers guide explains the various versions nicely. http://www.clio197.net/threads/clio-197-buyers-guide.19788/

    HELLO! In the market for an RS200 :)

    If you want climate then you don't want a cup as it doesn't have it. A/C was an option.

    HELLO! In the market for an RS200 :)

    Do you want a cup with basic interior or the normal version? That one on eBay is a cup with a number of nice mods if that is what you are looking for. Price seems a bit high for the mileage, but it looks in ok condition and has some expensive mods.

    Brake Discs & Pads (F&R) Suppliers?

    Hard to believe you have warped the discs just driving on the road. Could it have just been pad deposits causing vibration through the pedal?

    Brake Discs & Pads (F&R) Suppliers?

    What pads were you running with them and was it road or track driving?
