I may be wrong but i doubt Renault would make a car the weight of the 172 with 225 BHP. Nobody would buy it because the insurance cost would be astronomical. Bearing in mind a cup does 0-60 in 6.5 secs. With 225 BHP your looking at silly times and alot of dead people. If they made 225 BHP theyd...

Just get RAC membership and then you dont have to worry about anything. Call them out for all those little jobs that you dont want to pay for labour for (new accelerator cables, changing leads). I know someone who even called them out to fill his wash bottle cos he didnt have any solution and...

HELLO. BUY A CUP. THEY ARE CHEAPER AND BETTER

Haha. All it means is that when you buy one you will have even less tuning options available, because Renault have already done the basics (improved breathing and ripping the spare out). I just cannot see the point of this car except as a gimmick to challenge for horse power figures.

Ok, apart from the price, what are the disadvantages of a cam conversion in a Williams. Im thinking about drivability, engine longiverty, fuel consumption etc etc etc. Still weighing up if its worth it. It seems alot of mulla for 15 BHP.

Thanks. I was just interested.

172 is a fast car but no harm in making it a bit faster

lmao. its a new sport. Beer ganes mixed with car maintenance.

just interested if thats ok with you chip

What can you do to improve the handling of a Williams? How much will it cost and where can i get it done?

Scams????;)

Have a look in Tesco at the Stella Artois barrel you can buy. £15.99 for 5 litres of beer, BUT, check out that barrel as a heat shield for a K&N. Looks ideal to me. Cut a hole in one end fit the K&N into it and have a cold air hose coming up from the bottom of the car. The adapter for the barrel...

£5 for me

Its slowly getting better. Must be drying out

After the recent wet weather my car is now very rough (sounds like its missing) rev counter is very jerky, losing lots of power. Will it go away if i keep it dry and keep running it or is there something i should do?

I know id be mighty f*cked if someone did it to me. But as long as he gives the cash back (and perhaps compensates for petrol spent by stavros), stavo hasnt lost anything. Still a c***s move though/

Stavros??? ANd you stitched him up? Id watch your back mate.;)

lol

go for slicks man

Its not 10 BHP increase though. 172 isnt 172 BHP, so 182 wont be a 10 BHP increase, it will be about 7 or 8. Plus i bet its heavier, so no performance increase. Might as well just stick a good exhaust on a 172. Its just a marketing think to appeal to the BHP brigade. Ripping the spare out of a...

Where is a good place to get lowering springs from?

I use Tesco and i pay just under 500 notes fully comp

Cant go wrong with olive, but make sure its cold pressed extra virgin;)

Air bags dont do much anyway, they were invented for the USA market because ppl there dont wear seat belt as often, and in some states its not law. If your wearing a seat belt an airbag is pretty useless.

i spoke to the guy from rage and CRXs and MR2s are bad for universal exhausts because the back box goes sideways. Also on the CRX the axel is close to the back. It i bought a universal (ST5 in rage catalogue looks good) id still have to get it fitted and get all the pipe work done. I know bolt...

I have the back box from my williams before i got my magnex. If im going to weld one on could i use that?

Trouble is, the CRX back box sits sideways along the back of the car.

Looking at number plates last night and there are some good plates you could put on the car when the project is finished. Saw W7LLY and other such plates. Obviously most of us cant get them (W plates) because our cars are too old, but if yours was registered in 2002 then you might add one as a...

Got a twin pea shooter on my CRX. Dont want to spend cash modding the car and its difficult to get decent back boxes too for such an old car. Do you thing i should bolt on a trim to make it look better? I know bolt on exausts are sh*t but it would improve the looks and you wouldnt be able to...

The thing with a willy is that because it looks so cool, you have an excuse NOT to race all the tits. Nothing to prove.......its a Williams.
