bout 6 months ago i purchased a set of lockwood white dials for my 172...when they arrived they were totally wrong, got my 50 or 60 quid back and told em id send em sum pics so they could get it right but couldnt be arsed wiv it in the end.:oops:

40 to 8o quid m8, wot tyres u got to...iv got A539 and they have a ridge around them which doesnt help, mines got oz too bin dropped n rolled but still catches on full lock on one side at the back...37mm offset. :oops:

they rekn the "road angel" is good, theres at least 3 car mags put their name to it , its 400 all in. :oops:

ya, its now 12000 or two yrs, whichever cums first, i went in at 6k n was given the bad nuz :oops:

its jus a shorter stick so has less far to travel so it is "quick", iv got one n id never go back to the normal stick, big difference. in 5th n reverse the stick bears slightly round instead of straight doesnt take much gettin used to. had it fitted by them as im not spanner profficient. :oops:

excuse my lack of knowledge...hey, i only quoted the ad in demontweeks catalogue! :oops:

Looks good m8, not keen on the front tho but then id prefer subtle to in yer face :D

the viper kit uses velocity air force to get cold air direct into the engine how does this make it run lean then?

so...with these tbs, more horses is more strain on parts, wot essential upgrades would u need to match it e.g. better clutch...or r the standard parts capable? :oops:

As the 172 was out b4 the cup there r those who wouldve opted for that "slightly" better performance, id still have my 172 as iv always had crap old cars and wouldnt want to lose the luxuries. And u can still tune it up anyhow as clio mods r improving slowly with turbos n tbs n stuff, iv got all...

its not the utopia spoiler. that has repeaters in it. k-tek sell both.

got mine from trade sales and it didnt have an alarm just an imob, had one fitted along wiv a tracker...pricey but nicey :oops:

ta matt, iv posted on meetings.

Im having my engine fettled with soon, so would like to do b4 n afta rr figures to c if my hard earned queens royal sterling has bin well spent or not. So where can i go n how much is it roughly? :oops:

...Now wheres me bmx :p

bunch of do gooding spotters, ppl put racing posts on here all the time n they dont usually incite such a rabid frothing at the mouth response, id heard it could be bitchy on here, meow! oooh and the four letter abuse, like u never raced at the lights, or raced to beat somebody when the dual...

sum people really do carry the weight of the world on their shoulders, aah bless.

ooh! touchy, never had a bit of fun racin then? got a jesus saves sticker in ur window? i didnt buy a 172 to drive like miss daisy, t**ser.

was on nits las nit, 3hrs kip then thought id av a quiet drive to mums drop er sum flowas as u do..not a chance. jus getn on the A30 to bstoke when i get a vectra gsi in me rearview...its on, we boot it down the dual road, in n out of muvers day traffic doin 110, im edgin it cos i kno da road...

looks ok, i prefer their spoiler with the repeaters on it...gona b investing soon.

hey roamer, says u got 184bhp...wot mods u got m8?

i asked dawsons, i think they r the ones next to k-tek, they tried to tell me 350 a door and bullsh*ted me wiv a load of jargon for the reason...they obviously didnt want my business.

so how much is "lad" doin their headwork conversion for then or do i have to waste 10p? and do they really claim 30bhp?

i rang demon tweeks about there tb conversion they told me they dont do it for the 172, even tho its in the catalogue, as they couldnt sort out the electronics they reckoned.

i meant the price as a rough comparisson, if the 4 pot is cheaper mayb the basic kit is also cheaper?

ye, i got 17s ,got 37mm offset and one wheel at the back rubs on full lock but it doesnt help with my tyre selection...AR539 i think...they have a ridge nr the edge.

have u tried hi-spec for brake prices? the 4 pot kit they do for mine is just under a grand {queens royal english pound}...thats fitted if ur lazy...k-teks is 1300ish for just the kit, altho their tuning parts r well priced as i have several!

best u get some phatter ice, i gots k-tek twin 3.5 exit, its loud. when i first got it me bird complained that it was too loud and said she didnt want to drive it...like id let er, he he. :devilish:

r-tec have put 18s on a 172 with no arch rolling, and david at k-tek had 18s on his wifes 172...the ride was a touch bumpy he said.

ye, fekin twingos everywhere in france...but of course.
