    Changing springs help

    When changing the front springs and undoing the top mount is it bad to spin the shock? Having trouble undoing the bolt. Can I use a rattle gun to undo it all? Thanks Ollie

    iOllieSM's new car :)

    Oh no it isn't that, he's respraying the whole rear quarters either side and the front bumper. He's been doing it for 10 years so I don't doubt his ability to do it!

    iOllieSM's new car :)

    So I'm after some advice from people. My car has a crack in the front bumper and also a scratch on either rear quarter (was all there when I purchased it) , I've been quoted £250 to have it all fixed. Is that a good price? Both of the scratches are deep. So, both rear quarters resprayed and...

    Underside bonnet matting / proofing

    I'm guessing this was a silly question as nobody has answered? Lol

    Underside bonnet matting / proofing

    Is that needed? I took mine off as it was a bit tatty and someone I work with Said it could potentially make the paint on the top of the bonnet bubble because of the engine heat. Is this true? If so I am now regretting removing it lol... Will it be okay? Ollie

    Headlight washers

    Long. I really dislike them

    Headlight washers

    Hmm. Other people that put blanks in their place, what do they do come MOT time? It surely isn't a massive issue is it? Surprised they can fail you on something minor like that

    Headlight washers

    Surely if I just remove them though and put some blanks in there place, I can't get failed for them? (As they aren't there) Also! I had an MOT done 4 days ago and it passed and they weren't working when it went for the MOT and nothing was said.

    Headlight washers

    What's the best way to block these off? Mine don't work and I want to blank them off anyway and nows the time as the drivers side one is just leaking screen wash out of it and dripping onto the floor.... So yeah, what's the easiest way to block them off? Cheers :)

    Clio 2 phase 6

    I like the rear diffuser. Anyone photoshopped that onto a 172/182?

    Provided the weather is nice this is something il be checking this weekend. I text the bloke yesterday night who I got the car off and he said its 100% standard but I'm still going to check anyway as it does look much lower and snoweys is definitely on standard springs!

    iOllieSM's new car :)

    Yeah I had so much trouble removing it. Spent ages and in the end gave up as it isn't worth breaking it just to do it! I will take a look at some of that restorer as I need to do something with the bottom grille anyway

    172 vs 182 wheels ?

    Would be interesting to see 172 wheels on a 182. I actually prefer the 172 wheels (never liked the others). I'd do them in an anthracite colour or bright silver, not black tbh. Alternatively some turinis or something spoked in white could look good!

    iOllieSM's new car :)

    Little update. Cleaned out my throttle body yesterday which was beneficial as it was absolutely covered in gunk! Other then that just driven it. Met up with 'snowey172' last week also and got a quick picture of the cars together! (Mines on the left) And on the same day purchased a meguires...

    New Car- Monaco Blue 172

    Yeah I have to say... That does look good. Is that on standard shocks or cup shocks?

    New Car- Monaco Blue 172

    Ouch. Unlucky! What coilovers you got on that? I can't decide on what springs I want -_- really winding me up lol. I like the look of the apex ones, which absolutely ruin the handling so that isn't an option. The eibachs aren't low enough for my liking and cook sports I can't find enough...

    New Car- Monaco Blue 172

    I'm jealous of the lowness :( looks good man I can't wait to drop mine - just trying to decide what I want :/ don't really want coilovers would much prefer a set of springs. Un decided what ones though.

    Induction kit fitting without adapter plate

    I used to have the same car and Was in the same position. As far as I'm aware there is absolutely no way you can fit it without the adapter plate. I was lucky as I checked on eBay and there was one on there buy now for £15. Check on eBay or put a thread in the 'wanted' section is your best bet!

    K-tec induction 172Cup

    That sounds the nuts. How do these induction kits compare to the standard air box with like an ITG panel filter? Do these make more power / less power? Equivalent? Also what's the price on one of these IK's? :)
  26. iOllieSM

    All Clean and spacers fitted. (CUP)

    All that effort and then (v6 rep)

    Probably one of the best V6 reps I've seen tbh. I don't usually agree with replicas but fair play to him, good effort.
