Ill do some runs with my AC22 and see...

But theyre 15s mate, which are very common and cheap... he needs 16s

and your handling will be affected... Plus the fact that 195/50 R16s are an uncommon size and cost more, so dont bother! ;)

Get the Integra...

Seems fairly random, but the earlier ones were the ones with them...

Nope... shorter 1st gear, then a larger gap to 2nd and longer from there... Gear Ratios (mph/1000rpm) Speed in Gear (mph) Gear Revs mk1 172 mk2 172 Cup 182 mk1 172 mk2 172 Cup 182 1 7250 4.8 5.3 5.3 5.3 34.8 38.4 38.4 38.4 2 7250 8.7 8.7 8.7 8.8...

I disagree... Ive driven both on the track and the mk1 is not as good, as they understeer more and the ratios are not as well suited IMO The first problem can easily be remedied with a set of Eibach springs!

Just one of the trim codes... like RL, RN, etc... doesnt stand for anything as such...

If youre asking these sort of questions... maybe the V6 aint the car for you... Everytime Ive borrowed my mates (hes had both a mk1 & mk2) they were doing teens to the gallon and if you really drive them hard its horrific! However, with that engine note its hard not to thrash them. :oops:

One of the sealed induction systems (Pipercross Viper, BMC CDA, ITG Maxogen, etc) is best for perfomance gains... I had a Viper on my Cup and there were definate performance improvements, particularly in the mid-range grunt! An open induction kit is cheaper, and theyre louder (more...

The first RWYB at York is usually around Easter time, late March... Its also usually rammed!

Ive had the Hankook Ventus tyres in the past, cheap and not bad...

Standard discs, with something like Mintex M1144s, Ferrodo DS2500s or Pagid fast road pads...

Since you sold it Dan Ive only seen it once...

My mate will deffo run his M400 up the strip... and on the track...

Exactly...

You think the Clios bad... you wanna try a CTR or worse a 306 GTi-6 or Rallye...

A mate of mine has a well tweaked CTR thats stupidly quick and has just invested in an LSD so itll be good to see how he does next season... hell be up at York a couple of times Im sure, but Pod is nearer for him.

Of the 3 Ive run 14s in... Pug 306 Rallye - Ramair panel filter, no spare & rear seats out - 14.7s @ 92mph Clio 172 Cup - Pipercross Viper & rear seats out (only 3.5k miles old) - 14.5s @ 93mph Civic Type-R - BMC CDA & cat-back zorst - 14.5s @ 97mph The 306 time was a one off best...

It does use the exact same timing system as Pod, and the only discrepencies on times between the two venues are the fact that the start line at York is better suited to road cars, and theres usually a head wind at Pod. Generally around 0.2secs quicker at York vs Pod, sometimes the same...

Nothing special there... got several time slips to prove I am quicker than your Lancia... ;)

They share more than you probably wanna admit...

Come on... they share a lot of common parts... ;)

However the fact that he does own that car and its not modded, tweaked, etc... plus Ive not made up the "my cousins 700bhp Lancia with NOS does 2.9secs 0-60" like some posts on here was my point... ;) Believe it or not the Noble guys daily driver is a mk1 172 and he does (very rarely) post on...

I love how this thread has become BS central... :D

... with a big heart! :devilish:

So your car does 0-100 in under 8 secs then?! ;) Thatll be fun...

Going of what Jordie (a mate of his) can do in his mk1 Scirocco with a similar conversion, rapid is a word that springs to mind!

Think youll find that was the Lancia Delta S4 mate, and was the car that ultimately got Group B banned...

He he he... was quick enough with the 172 lump in... itll be insane now! ;)
