    Golf VR6 v’s 16v

    At motorway speeds youll need a massive power difference to significantly leave another car over a short distance... I doubt the V6 would leave the 172 for dead, I got it to 145mph in France (shhhh) and it felt like it didnt have any more to give, there were 4 of us in it though. I rate the...

    Golf VR6 v’s 16v

    I drove a V6 4motion to the south of France and back and I can assure you they are rapid... Most certainly faster than a williams, half a second quicker to 60. The main difference I noticed is that the V6 has got masses and masses of grunt, just goes in any gear at any time... exactly what...

    Has anyone tryed this

    The bonnet scoop on a valver/williams is to control the heat in the engine bay...not as an induction scoop. Its positioned so it directs air straight onto the exhaust manifold because this obviously gets hot to trot. Also it lets the heat rise up and out when stationary... same as the bonnet...

    Not so fast 172

    Can I see alloy pedals on both models?...v nice. Are the steering wheels leather atall?... both nice as i say... I prefer the front of the mk2s though I reckon. As for this performance difference stuff... my arse. The difference would not be noticeable... end of.

    Braking Problem

    If it pulls to one side under braking it is 100% a problem with your brakes... most likely the front ones as they do most of the work. I had the same thing with my old car.. the rubber seal around the piston on the brake caliper was knackered so over time water got into the piston and it...

    Chipping...

    Anyone know what gets altered when you get a performance ECU? Im guessing the fueling gets reworked... but Ive heard the rev limiter gets pushed up a bit... Now I may be soft but arent rev limiters there for a bloody good reason ie: to stop the pistons trying to escape through the bonnet...

    Rear windscreen washer woe..

    Has anyone had their rear windscreen washer pack up on a mk1 clio? My williams has suffered from day one... Ive worked out its not the pump or the nozzles... so it must be kinked somewhere. Anyone know a good place to start looking?

    Mega depreciation of V6’s

    I suppose getting a mk1 v6 now would be a bit of a gamble... not knowing whether their price will stabilise. Hopefully they will become a bit of a classic soon enough and then hold firm. That will probably go out the window though if the mk2 is vastly better.. then youll get the "whatever...

    Hang on 195 wheels surely give more grip than 185s due to a bigger contact area surely?
