ok ive managed to get my xbox to detect the laptop its plugged into (crossover cable) and on TV xbox says cables connected with a green light to signify connectivity. i have my laptop connected to the broadband modem via usb and (obviously) im posting now so as you can see i can use my internet...

hi im with norwich union i pay £58 a month for the cup i know it can be £50 if i could park it down a drive but im not that lucky. thing is i think £45-50 is ol but £58 is pushing it for me and i may get rid of it i want a company who will not mind me modding my cup a little. i heard...

..thing is my car is fast enough for me, ive never had the balls or idiocy to push to silly levels in my 172 and even less so in my cup. im still getting a geuine 38mpg from my cup though and grp 16 insurance is the only bugger it cost me £58 per month to insure no points full no claims 27 yrs...

I heard the IK+ ECU was better

172 MKII has had esp since 2002 m8. the breaks on my old 172MKII were awesome really crisp bite and pulled up hard, althouth the pads wore a bit faster than i would have liked i cant fault them, it even seemed to breakl harder than my cup but then again that hasnt had any new pads since new and...

on the black MKI 172 what wheel size are they at a guess ? look phat wouldnt mind some on my cup. not 17`s i hope

average only jokin looks good m8

.. also as to build quality my experience is the engines can take as much abuse as you can sensibly give them much more than you would expect given the price of the things, anything mechanical is usually sound and looking into the engine bay shows a really well designed modern car. electronics...

they should allow a test drive !! i had one on both the 182 and the 225 err.. where bout you based ? maybe go to a CS meet and have a pootle about in some of the 172cup`s 182`s 182cups that will be there

.

27yrs most replies have been under 25yrs but just wait a bit as it takes time for the old gimmers to type as fast.. ohh err ive owned a 172MKII Icesilver sold it at a loss now i own a 172cup happy with both but the cup more so in some ways probably get a 182 next but maybe go sensible with a...

i know where to get a cup muhaha

cant belive the cup`s only need a few tiny mods that shouldnt give too much power and they run some amazing times. you had 184bhp didnt you chris ? get some inlet work and a 182 manifold for 195`ish and you will maybe get into 13`s ! if you did a 14.1 on 184bhp

FK ? are they highsports (ironic really they should be called really really low sports) cant you go down something mad like 70mm and thats on a 172 !

err yes and no, if you keep the standard front belts (mite aswell) you could say you use them.

i think comparing a 1.2 clio or 1.4 clio to a 182 or 172 isnt fair. you just compare that clio above to a current, 4x4 ride height, grey plastic bumpers, 15" poop wheels and knowone can say that the current shape is worse it looks about three times as expensive,bigger and classier. As how...

i didnt.. i sold my 172MKII in two weeks to ozzoy99 then bought a cup from matt the next day lol. just gotta give them away like my 53reg 172 Icesilver for near £6k (last year in september) only one owner great condition 20months old paid near 13k for it less than a year before but i know its a...

the best thing you have said i think. notice how 172` 182` mods used to be exhaust induction kit etc.. now there are TRUSTED, PROPER tuning compaines out there who dont rip you off its good to see inlet work, manifold work, mapping, new ecu`s, TB`s, Cams, and an assortment of other things...

dvd is multilayer there just being tight imo 4.7gb + upto around 17 layers with same storage on each just pushes the cost up for a dual layer but not by much as nearly all dvd movies are dual layer. ohh and i agree about the PS2 thing pmsl at sony they keep leading people down the garden path...

the 172 cup weighs 1020 so whats that power to weight ??

all you have to do is loosen the adjustable steering column get her down on it then tighten again on her head slam on the brakes whilst moving and voila..instant deep throat

those wheels look great in some shots and then not so much in others, its the same every time you post some.. i think side shots look not great but that could be down to the fact it look like it rides high whats with H&R`s 15mm at rear ? and yet 40mm at front ?? the H&R should go down well...

lets not get silly. the pug was a good car in its day but things move on and not just in performance terms.

how can it be worse if it uses HDMI ?? the beauty of digital connections is that the loss in almost 0% and components i.e resistors/powersupplies etc.. arent really a key factor as in high end analogue gear, a £120 upscaling samsung 720/1080i DVD player will match a £2000 DVD if it uses a pure...

would a turbo be a better option ? 270hp and 260lbft rapido

i thought DCI`s were bosch tbh but dotn quote me. btw dragon t box is basically the best plug in box other than a custom remap.

H&S or Prospeed i think

how do i use a shocked smiley ?!!!! no HDMI ? so its analogue only ? PS3 has two HDMI and 1080P support. also most games and actually i dont know if its all software dont use REAL 720P on xbox360 they are upsampled (like a dvd player does) before the output to pretend hi-def...

dont GDI do this stuff for £150 and decent gains (dependant) 8-12 hp ! to get some power on a 172 it seems 4-2-1 = 10, Inlet,outlet = 10, Induction,Decat(s.cat) = 5-6, mapped together with Rsport = 25 = realistically 190hp + cams for the magic 200/205 with mapping. apart from cams all of that...

you must have one of the slower 172`s then as my cup passes them fairly easy. however a few tweaks and there v.quick for what they are as they weight nout. just ditch the back seats and get some buckets in the front + a few breathing mods and suspension and you have a pocket rocket.. even so i...
