Give your screen a really good clean and polish, then apply some GTechnic G1 Glass sealant (In the right temperature, Ideally inside a garage this time of year) and it should stop a build up and the water/screen wash should just bead all the grime off the screen
Erm... Those seats :yum::yum::dizzy:
This is a rather nice car! very well taken care of, just shows when you said 3rd carbon lip... after the second one I'd have paid Skoda for a fabia one! but its a very nice addition
Woah! That's quite a big job!
Doing the LHD Conversion will be a great build thread! I hope you post lots of pictures of your progress.
Why did you buy a UK Spec car to import back home? Cost effective this way?
I'm quite intrigued by this, look forward to the updates
Welcome along :up:
The car sounds like it's going through a whole heap of change! Clearly this is only for the better though :up:
Certainly the Pure motorsport Top Mount and Strut brace kit are a great addition as everyone on here will pretty much agree. So I'd order one and whilst you're at it, you might as well...
JESUS!!!!
What a bloody great thread this has been to read!
I've seen the pro's and the Con's of having an engine builder, build the car, and I've seen the WEALTH of money that has gone into this car and all of the others that race their cars!
What a great thread and Now I cant wait to see this...
I am a member on VXROnline... a lot of the guys in the South Central + South East are an awesome bunch.
Try and get yourself along to a couple of the VXR Power Events this year and get taken out in the Nurburgring VXR by a BTCC driver! THAT IS FUN!
The Track days are awesome! You drive Insignia...
How did you remove the cable?
I take it that the bonnet was open when removing then closed... now you're trying to get back in?
If so with the bumper off, you should be able to get it open by putting a flat head into the mechanism. i could be completely wrong though 😂😂
yeah, it wasn't taxed, but it wasnt meant to be parked on the road... but the landlord took ages sorting keys for me
A lad i know from my Vauxhall days is a remap specialist and uses SRR for live mapping. RABBID REMAPS... Richard is a genius in the Vauxhall world. what he doesn't know isn't...
what you're forgetting, if you take the clamp off and are seen doing so, its a £1000 fine
It's also up to £1000 fine for not having tax on the car
so its in your best interest to either do one of two things
Pay the fine or scrap the car
Thanks ImprezaWorks... hopefully itll be running by the end of the week! ** WE'LL SEE :grimacing::grimacing: **
If i were looking to put the car back on the road, i wouldn't have bought it as i just wasn't looking to do loads of structural work to the car...
I can hit this with my big hammer...
UPDATE TIME
well guys, Yesterday I went down to the unit after work (05:30am) to see what I could get done on the car. I don't like going down without my Son as I want him to be as involved with the Project's we're doing as much as possible.:up:
My first plan was to remove the rear wiper...
Evening all,
I've read a fair amount of threads on here regarding Suspension. The obligatory what's best for this etc..
My 172 won't see the road again, so if it starts and I'm happy with the way it drives, it'll be a TRACK CAR ONLY...
I'm not looking to spend thousands, but I do want the...
