Lol at paying 1500 for a respray. Round here it's 400 for a good job.

266bhp/315lb/ft F4r + t

Lol actually no I still hate them in the rain id rather be on cheapo tyre with full tread in the rain than have the sloppy boat like handling rainsports give lol.

Rainsport 2!!! ....Jokes...they're utter s**t...I'd rather have shangdong linglong black horse mohawks fitted

Agree with this. I don't see the point in me getting the timing belts done. I could probably pick up a spare engine and have it fitted quicker and for less than the price of getting someone to do the belts and dephaser on mine lol.

Really nice that. Monaco blue + silver turinis :)

Standard suspension is absolutely mint mate on the road it's comfortable and handles corners brilliantly. i wouldn't want my car any stiffer at all on the road.

Welcome mate from Newcastle here to. These 172's are great cheap little cars. You will enjoy the way you can throw the clio about in corners compared to vags.

Just how I'd like my Monaco to look... Turinis and slightly lowered. Might see mine about Newcastle mate

Yeah you can alter that and the height and angle of the pedal. Might look a bit JDM style but works for me.

Hopefully crushed into a cube and made into tins

There's a black xr4x4 with gold wheels Ive seen sometimes round my way but apart from that they must be a rare car on the roads now mate very cool.

Gutted I must have just missed it on the rollers. Haha yeah mate that was me driving round in circles it's quite hard to find that place cheers for directions lol

That white GTR is 600bhp+ but when he runs it on race fuel and higher boost its 840bhp!! looked amazing i'd love one. I made 264bhp and 290lbft pathetic lol

Should make this a sticky to warn other people so they don't fall for the false reviews lol

Put the clio on mate surely you want a before and after comparison on the mods. What Sierra you got dude?

I went off the reviews on this forum and others. I expected them to be better than my budget nankang/kumho combo and nobody mentioned the mass sidewall flex. I'll give them a few weeks if the don't improve I'll get some proper tyres not the end of the world.

How ridiculous is that. Some moron smashed into my r26r on track and wiped out my rear quarter I was pissed off but it's not the end of the world I wouldn't expect the guy to pay.

Can't remember where I read it might have been on here or through a google search. I didn't buy them to do any trackdays just wanted a decent all weather road tyre. 1:55 is good going in the wet I suppose :) I'm at Cadwell next Thursday if it's forecast rain i will take the clio and try the...

I'll give them a few hundred miles but personally I can't see them getting much better. The biggest gripe is the way the sidewalls collapse it changed the character of the car and makes it less fun. They actually feel like a Yokohama parada spec 2 another awful tyre I tried and binned.

If they drive anything like the dc2 they will be epic.

Thing is Daniel the tyres that were on previously were all budget kumho/nankang and honestly the car felt better on the 'dry road' with those tyres. I thought the rainsport would be an upgrade.

I know mate I understand that they're a 'rain tyre' but it's just all the b****cks on here and other forums about these being good in the dry to.

What about all the reviews on this forum about how good they are? Loads of people recommend them. I've even read somewhere about people using these on track and rating them! I can't imagine how shite they will be with more heat in! The sidewall must completely give up. Just goes to show you...

Just fitted uniroyal rainsport 2's after reading the really good reviews they get on this forum. Just been out to try them and my clio feels s**t the car wobbles at high speed bumps and when you corner the car just drops down and feels so sloppy :( the sidewalls must be so soft. The car just...

Would love one of these

That megane is mine lol and you can see how the megane looks lighter colour.

Fake number plates very useful when your low on fuel and you've forgotten your wallet :)
