172/182 buyers guide...
Seems it form the posters on here but there are owns with higher milage cars just hvan't posted.
Plus depends if were accounting for age as well vs milage.
Take the passenger side wing mirro cover of and check the wires. A new sensor isn't much thats all the issue just need chnaging or checking for shorts etc.
Imports don't have any alarms fitted there always aftermarket you can find some with Toads some with cobras etc just whatever the owners wanted if they wanted one that is fitted.
You have to replace the UCH its a pian you cannot just use one form another car as there programmed to work only with the car they were originaly used on unless your a electroncs and proigramming wizard.
They can go any time I woulnd't bother doing anyhting till they start going mine are still ok at 108k at the back and 80k at the fornt and I give my car some hard use.
Personaly I'd say spedn a lot on a good set of suspension or not at all.
As for getting it one its easy enough 2 hours labour or so. Ask at a local meet if anyone would be willing to do it etc.
I'd get the mounts checked and worn ones replaced.
Wishbones ARB bushes etc are somehting to check as well.
Springs should be fine dampers are the ones to check.
I'm not for or aginst either company but to be fair whats a 1.6 got to do with a 172 phase 1 nothing different engine abeitly the same type etc but not the same engine and engine hasn't been finished so whats the point in what there building same for the Benp car.
Plus most powerful doens't...
