Cheers for that, the wiring goes out through the same hole in the bulkhead as the bonnet cable, so I guess it must all re-appear under the ECU somewhere...

Won't help you I'm afraid, this is an aftermarket system Racelogic adjustable traction & launch control..

I'm planning on removing the Racelogic traction control from our Mk1 172 as the car is being sold.. control box is under passenger airbag and wires dissapear into the bulkhead. I presume they then go into the ECU.. Is the ECU under the black metal cover behind the battery? if it is, presume...

How about just spending £120 odd on the Eibach Pro springs kit, never heard a bad word about it on this forum, I fitted the kit the other month, corners much flatter, but not too hard. Of course if you are looking for a drastic drop in ride hight you will need the full monte..

I had a bad run a few years ago, got 3 points then got nabbed at 104, whilst waiting to go to court for that got hit again - another 3 points! went to court for the 104 MPH offence with 6 points on my licence, managed to drive away with another 6 points (giving me 12 total), no ban and a...

Theres a 91 Clio Cup race car for sale on Scooby net, 14k on the clock for £5k. Make someone a nice weekend toy. http://www.bbs.scoobynet.co.ukwww.bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/

I went for the Halfrauds ones for £20, they need a bit of worth with a knife on the back to get them to fit and even then they are not perfect. Id say spend the extra £6 to get the gen ones.

Ive got Racelogic traction and launch control fitted, although Ive not actually got the launch control set up. Have to say that the traction con is great. Has a few slip settings to play about with or you can turn it off, personally I prefer to leave it on the dry setting all the time, even on...

oooh Im 37 too :D can see a trend developing here...

172

You can buy scratch removal kits, basically a mild abrasive polish, I would use something like T-Cut or a metal polish but be very careful & do a test first, you should be able to remove light scratching ok, if the T Cut leaves more finer scratches use a less harsh polish to get these out.

Should I be concerned? Had the 172 for 8 months now and it has not been near a Reno garage yet, no matter how hard I thrash the thing i can not get anything to rattle, bang, squeek or fall off. I feel that I am just not having the full Reno experience and are thinking about trading up to a...

Believe EBC blacks are just a good replacement for the OEM ones, not uprated, Greestuff are the fast road/not so fast track which would be similar to the Tarrox.

is that right? surely in the event of a claim they would just not pay out on the extra value of your wheels, can it really invalidate the policy?

eeek!, be intrested to know if they did the accessory belt (or whatever its called), 36k service on ours was about same price, but no belt listed on the invoice, schedule says it should be done at 36k.
