helloo, can anyone give me any advise on bucket seats ? i have decided not to get recliners as my back seats arent going back in and once i have my driving posisition set thats the way it stays.. ok so ive seen the cobra monaco`s in another post on here but i noticed nice as they were they...

dont bother youl strip the head, get a wrench and tighten around the the nut its a b*****d at first but it does start to turn, took mine out last wed, weighed everything up lugage bar etc.. = 15.5kg`s !! and let me tell you the sound you hear from the exhaust when you hit the limiter makes it...

err the only one i have of my new car... soon with ktec twin 182 exhaust look (inc sileced decat) + hill power induction and hopefully someone can remap my ecu or a can get another one remapped to take into account my mods ?

im wantinbg the hill power induction system for my new 172cup. how much is the full system. btw nick like the way its sealed from hot air but is open on the cool side so you still get the noise ! thats exactly how id have done it. i see it uses the standard feed but do you reroute the...

wtf ? quality

what he puts his balls in your mouth when you asleep ????

PMSL x 2 that v6 clio cant corner for toffy lol remind me of the top gear vid where if you went a bit too fast you couldnt power silde it would just spin out.. not good especially seen as 99% are driven on the road. crap handling.

.. most manufactures 0-60 times cant be met in the real world, reno underestimates them to keep the insurance down, subaru sometimes overeggs them as an example me and a m8 couldnt get better than 6.1 in his 04 wrx 225 (220bhp) impreza. also most "brisk" cars on the road in truth struggle to...

MKI`s are indeed rare but a few are as i mentioned creaping into chav reach but thankfully they`d rather ride around in a 215hp scoob with a dump valve and a ukd turbo. as for the 172cup if you read the specs on the track of it 40 open rear etc its been desgined as a proper sprint car for a...

i want my cup track wider how do i do that ?

are cups included in this convo ? i just did 6.22 on a damp road in the cup with back seats out. lol all for such a cheap price.. i also got 47.3 mpg on a slow weeks driving.

yea you really need the pudsey bear stickers other wise you just another car.

but then they will need a camera to stop that lol but in truth they will just extend the penalty for people oerverting the course of justcice, the first person to be caught will be made an example off to frighten the masses and serve years in jail gettin bummed.

^^^ did they improve performance much with being lighter ?? as stock seats weigh loads. ive noticed a big diffo removing my rear seats in the cup and they only weigh 15.5kg`s. (kerb weight now 1004.5kg`s with buckets = 987kg`s !!!) btw why didnt you get imola`s. those monaco`s are 9kg`s each...

..anyways to summise compare with other marques/models id still say the 172cup is rare and certainley getting rarer.

could be true but a lot have been written off now seriously there seems to be one every week in winter. if you compare a 172cup in terms of sales compared with a Ford Focus ST170 , Ford Mondeo ST220, Vauxhaul Astra GSI, you miles more likely to see one of those than a 172cup, in fact in two...

actually i can see some logic in the sweeping statement. a 1090kilo 182 with climate, airbags, xenon etc.. or a 1070 182cup with hardly anthing in. i guess what you saying is that the difference between a 182 and 182cup in weight doesnt justify the loss in gadgets..hmm sort of agree but on a...

get a grip man ! who wants 1.6`s to be powerhouses anyway ???? there for economy and the last time i checked a decent 1.6 was quick enough to satisfy a decent overtake and a quiet motorway cruise. 160hp diesel ? wtf are you on, surley its better to have to 140hp diesel at a low insurance...

the MKII has a key to turn it off and on does the MKI ?

im going for cobra imolas

whats the diffo between the H&R and the FK`s ?? in standard 16" turinis how would you know how low to go front v rear ?? would you have same height drop is there a meauring tool or do you just measure up from the top of the alloy ?? how could that be acurate with difference center arch size...

^^^ what he said !! id love to know that info. i wouldnt think there are many left in the uk compared to say a ford focus or even a normal 172MKII due to the fact there were less numbers made, were styled towards euro tastes so wouldnt have not sold aswell (same as 172MKII) didnt have any...

i may just add that the 2.0 engine in the clio perfectly suits its purpose. the new 2.0T in the 225 suits its purpose also.. reno dont make bad engines, the 172/182 were never meant to be "add a zorst and see 30hp gains"

was 1/4 miling setup for people who have a small penis i just dont get it ? if you go to many track days or are into cars 1.) the cars power isnt everything as a good handling car with lots of involvement is more important 2.) you will realise doing a track day is fun, legal and exciting...

its a sad thing to hear that the reno engine is cack but hey the CTR`s steering and driver involvement is even cacker ho hum.. anything with a turbo will go quick in a straight line, anythng with awd will grip like a mo fo, not many cars have the X factor where there fun for some unknown reason...

yea id be interested in info about camber last time i put koni`s on i went through tyres every 2 months !! 2% out on each side, until my local garage who fitted shocks/tyres admitted they couldnt do camber/tracking !! any info on these pls.

nah its nowt to do with springs its the 90kilos that does it for me.. cough 105kilos now back seats are a gona

bored at work too much time to type lol. anyways keep the sticker.

Re: joel being stupid again true.. if there are a few clio`s in your town you need to stand out other wise they will think it wasnt your clio that past them in their bmw 330ci or perhaps someone also as a cup or a 172 in the same colour who drives like a knobber if they recognise the car...

Re: joel being stupid again guess you wont like my cup then lol ..
