I recently replaced the dog bone with a poweflex'd one. Immediately I could tell the upper engine mount was bad as well since the engine actually moves around on idle. Gave my local dealership a call for a quote on the mount and they said it's both out of stock here in Sweden and in France. As...

Absolutely. Just make sure you get the 172 ones and not 182 for the front otherwise they won't fit. Either pair will fit in the rear though.

Cat will be kept as is. What I'm asking really is whether the centre pipe with silencer and back box for a 1.4/1.6 are the same length and look somewhat the same other than bore size as their 172 counterparts.

Are you sure about the hanger mounts? I've bought both exhaust hangers through the local auto store using a Clio 1.6 plate as no parts would show up for the 2.0. The parts turned out to be identical and I believe even the part numbers are the same. I'm only interested in a catback so can't see...

What exactly other than bore size differs the 172 catback from a 1.4 or 1.6 catback? Reason I'm asking is a company is offering exhaust systems in stainless steel for 1.4 and 1.6 but no Sports. I asked them if they could make an exhaust with a slightly bigger bore for my 172, but unfortunately...

Been playing this for a couple of days and now I really regret not getting this sooner. I play with the DS4 and it's actually far more playable than I first thought. Although reading comments on here and other forums, I'm sure it was way, way worse back when the game was first released. Anyway...

@iain187 Do you use the DFGT on your PS4? If so, how'd you get it to work? I have an old DFGT laying around but I've read it's not supported on the PS4 which is complete bull poo..

This game is now on sale on Playstation Network! ~£25 but could also be Sweden only or whatever but thought I should mention it. Downloading it at the moment, just hope I won't be disappointed.

Congratulations! Do these use the same engine as the "previous" gen VXR/OPC? Also, did you consider any other cars?

Glad you kept it! I'm looking at doing the reverse, replacing my 172 with a 197/200. :) What exhaust are you looking at? Also, how are the exhaust manifolds on these? Are the welds as prone to break as on the 197 units?

I lowered the suspension last night and immediately experienced the same thing. I get these aren't really for a slammed ride but I personally found the drop quite moderate, a finger between fender and tyre, but it would still catch on the liners. How do they do it? I'm thinking of those with R...

Raises it to 7500. I've never understood why really as these engines lose most of its grunt above 6500.

Negligible really.

Did you figure this one out @NashArtist ?

Oh believe me, had to tell them more than once that washers must fit but they'd argue otherwise. Just picked the car up and what do you know, the washers did fit.. To the OP, trust me, buy genuine parts, it'll save you both money and mind in the long run. I bought both discs with bearings and...
