Starting it this weekend as was busy last! Will update when I’ve sorted it or set the Clio on fire in anger

Is it just a case of undo every fixing and see if it loosens the dash at all?

Anyone done it on a 172 cup? Got a small puddle behind the centre console of liquid, gave it the taste test and it’s coolant. Any guides on how to pull the whole dash out? Found the one for the top section already. Any tricks to do it with the dash in situ? Cheers

I worked the nuts actually!

Changed my 172 cat today, what an absolute ball ache, defiantly a 2 man job with one holding the bolts from the engine bay!

Anyone fitted one of the 120 quid eBay special 172 cats? Go terrible a fit are they? Thanks

What a bunch of knobs! Good build though, keep it up!

hi all, after reading some confusing answers to this question, I want to put an aftermarket wheel on my 172 cup, will an omp boss work? As it has got steering wheel controls etc Thanks

I think I picked up my old c1j converted mk1 9/10 years ago off here! The car was a dog but wish I kept hold of it now!

Fitted my fatty induction kit, removed some horrific stickers and fitted a fabia splitter!

Thus wasn’t bought near reading was it recently?

Probly get 500 out of it if you don’t mind it sitting about for 6 months whilst you break it

Yea I was thinking about getting the timing checked out, doesn’t kangaroo too much iirc. Parts for a fatty induction kit are in the post! Been looking at omp wheels, some of the ebay fakes are horrific

Looks very smart! What size wheel is that?

Scratch that just discovered the fabia splitter!
