Unfortunately i dont get the silver spoon treatment! Anyway it will be going soon :(, were not rich, my dads just made a lot of compromises to afford it, as he lives for astons, but running it as a company car means tax costs are something like 5k a month. Though hes got an M3 now which isnt...

lol..im only 17

and so you should mr martinibeanie! I would say the honda integra r has the best fwd chassis over the last couple of years but would take a 172 overall. Steve - I know understeer aint a lot of fun but you can get oversteer in an FWD just by fiddling with the tyres. If your looking at an...

ok, cool. Damn ugly too

I dont remember, just the twin cam bit. Id say probably a fiat engine. 180bhp is in my head too..

I hope your referring to my extreme :) It is nice though, good finish and sporty look. The climate control cost loads but its really impressive, and i got the cd player free so its alllll good

i nicer view than my interior dont you think?

meant braking *doh*

Cupsize, your letting your ego getting in front of the point of ABS. ABS allows you to steer whilst breaking. Thats the major point of it. Its not made to let you stop quicker. It also lets retarded drivers just step on the pedal to break, as theyre lazy and thats what they demand. It would...

ok maybe it werent http://www.nissan200sx.co.uk/Mvc-010f.jpg

ok its the one before the skyline-esque one, ive just read theyve got 170bhp standard..think thats still turbo?

ah ha, just found my dads xmas present. thanks lads!

good man

cupsize - no one likes a smart ass ;) night.icon - good idea, only one way to prove it!

it looked like a boat if thats any help

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The magazine is never in my newsagents :(

swear on your mummas life?

Abbs- Yeah id still have one anyday, great fun, just not in the wet but as a track car its not unexpected. It would be interesting to see if any cup owners put on some rainsport tyres. Ben- Cant remember exact details but yes, was a twin cam, in fact was quite a beast overall! Wouldnt be...

Steve whyd you say that? Are you presuming that a big power RWD is better? Ive too never driven a 200sx, but i have driven supras and the 172 is so much better i couldnt begin how to compare. Remember FWD has come along way. Power isnt everything..

They only look good 17inch plus as the spokes are quite spindly and dont reach the edge. Id get 17s if i were you :D

Id agree, the williams is the most complete hot hatch ever in driving terms (205 incl). Though times have moved on and as an overall package the 172/cup are better, easily.

lol no, i had to take it down as i was putting a picture up of my dads aston http://www.faceparty.com/public/297/images/inspiration_1527743.jpg

Its the kind of thing which might of appealed to me a couple of years ago, but my views have changed from show to go. The flamer kit is basically for show offs, and youd get better flames from setting fire to the s**t heap which is producing them!!

Ask them if theyre the same manufacturer before you buy, one might be better fit for your clio, the other might be just universal

Dont say cheap! Get the best you can afford! Theyll last longer than cheap tyres, will make a big difference in handling, plusss theyll look cool :D

yeah ill be getting clear ones, i dont think colour coded ones look good, as theyre never the right shade

they would look titchy!

Whats the spec of these cars? I was on the way to my local shopping centre when i got on to a dual carriage way, there was a 200sx behind me (austrian and modded) so i let him go, and chased him to see what it was capable of. It only pulled away from me as much i would expect a 172 to (and he...

RWD doesnt mean its a better car though, and to exploit one i would suggest going on a track to learn how to use one properly, otherwise you wont get the best out of it. Either my minds gone blank or there are no affordable RWDs? (Bearing in mind im not a jap or bmw fan!) Ill be keeping my...
