    Why not to do full throttle gear changes

    Hmmmm well, after some exhaust work, change of filter system, and a full service and ecu map check mate - probably mid feb at a guess.

    Why not to do full throttle gear changes

    The crunch noise will be your synchro on 2nd gear mate, what youre doing is racing the synchro, its not having chance to spin up to speed match before being engaged.

    You can get the exhaust off in one piece - no need to cut it. If you want any advice, drop Fred2001dynamic a PM.

    Renault sat-nav or alternative

    Who cares about a silly spoiler, the sat-nav is worthwhile matey (But the reason you cant have it is because the sweep on the cup antenna is less than on the standard 172/182 to cope with the bigger spoiler - and they dont make a gps+radio antenna that is swept like the cup one.)

    £480 for a 172 Interior

    Im afraid to say the front seat covers are not £250 each, nearer £1k - a shocking price, so YES thats a good deal mate, snap it up :)

    Exactly How Hard Is It To Do

    No mate, just go for it, you wont lose anything, if its that bad/hard, you just put it back together - but you should be able to do it (and youve always got help from people on here :) )

    fuel lines

    Ok, this is a mk1 valver yeah? therefore youve got a return line via the regulator, so all that may have happened is air pockets may have been introduced into the fuel rail, so letting it try and fire, then turning fully off and then letting it pressure up again a few times should do the trick.

    172 performance mods

    Mine was chipped for a long while, and I was really happy with it, I had an aftermarket exhaust and a pipercross viper which was plumbed in to get a lovely nice shot of cold air from the bottom grill, and custom superchips map did it proud, it got to about 184bhp on the rollers and was noticably...

    172 performance mods

    Ok, youve got two options, either weight loss or and increase in power output.... Weight loss, on a 172 you can lose about 40kgs by taking out the back seats, spare wheel and toolkit, and maybe lose another 25-30 or so by swaping the front seats for buckets..... Power gains...

    Is it? what was it built for then? what race series did they need to build a road going version for, and why didnt they limit production to the minimum needed to enter that series?

    Cup - A future classic

    Nope I seriously doubt it will be a "future classic" what is its genuine racing heritage? is it a homologation special?????

    In your opinion!!

    For keeping your power Id say - Standard airbox with the original filter element - just change it more often than the service interval.
