I'm not sure if the 172 and 197 boxes are the same, but the mechanic said that on my box 1,2, 5 and 6 gears use a brass synchro ring, however, both 3rd and 4th are mild steel with a friction material bonded in the centre. As a result it seems that 3rd and 4th are more susceptible to wear and...

Not sure if anyone's in the South Yorkshire area, but if so I just had 4th gear (and 3rd) repaired on my 2007 197 F1 by www.ddconline.co.uk / 01302 340 300 (ask for Richard). I would highly recommend them! Cost about £1000 inc VAT, which included synchro for 3rd and 4th, new 4th gear as there...

I'm not 100% sure what you are looking for, but if you PM me your email address I might have something that will help.

Yes, thats normal, however, mine are a bit further to the left so that they are covered up by the plastic.

Which track are you going to?

Welcome! I've previously had an Exige and now have a Red R27!

Yep... Discovery Channel, Mondays at 8pm

I agree, however, (as Chris said) I don't think they would have been able to get the point across that the biggest improvement was driver training. ;)

Not sure as they only tested them individually.

Did anyone see the new series of Fifth Gear last night? They had an RS 200 where they tried to see what provided the best performance increase around Rockingham. Control Lap Time: 1:43.6 Superchips Blufin (£250): 1:37.6 Milltek Exhaust (£530): 1.37.5 Yoko AD08 Tyres (£130 ea): 1.35.0...

They are the OEM ones. Both the ones I removed and the new LEMFÖRDER ones are stamped with TRW. You can get a pair delivered from http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/ for £46.

Am I right in thinking that I'll need 2 litres?

Still think I'd like to have some ducting, but as I don't know what brake fluid is in my car it's probably worth replacing it. Is there any particular brand you would recommend?

Just a little concerned about boiling the brake fluid. I was at a track day about two weeks ago and 3 172/182's boiled their brake fluid and I was braking much later and harder than them. It was open pit lane and I was doing 15 min sessions with a single slowdown lap and I didn't feel any...

Wow they look really nice! I don't think my wife would approve at that price tho..

Has anyone setup some brake ducting? Ideally I either want something that leaves the car looking standard or if not something that can can easily remove after the track? I've seen quite a few 172/182's where the fog lights have been removed and ducting added. Is there anything off the shelf...

Hi everyone, I was waiting to get a couple of good pics, but haven't had the chance... maybe I'll add some at a later date! Got the car a couple of months ago and got jumped by Jase (at least I think it was Jase) in Meadowhall who gave a card for the site! Only been using it for a short...

So I'm not mad after all!

I'm not sure if its just me going mad, but my Key Card doesn't seem to work if its in the same pocket as my iPhone. It will always let me open the doors, however, when I press the start button it can't seem to sense the key.

Just replaced mine, it only took about 30 mins and cost £25 for both sides. I used the instructions on the following site: http://www.renaultforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=129679
