    Boy racers.

    Stretchy stretchy handbrake cables anyone? Can't say I even find it a little bit amusing tbh? Needed to be driven around the streets in 1st gear with 1.2 suspension, revving at zebra crossings, and maybe understeering into police car or something.

    K tec induction piping

    Correct - The hose behind the inlet with the breather fitted should be into the induction hose with an L shaped pipe connector, however perhaps the previous owner lost it or damaged it. I'm sure KTEC would send you another or get yourself one and do some measurements etc. The small vac pipe on...

    Plastic gear box drain plug?

    Long nose pillars from the N/S arch or underneath if you can't undo the fill plug! ;)

    Plastic gear box drain plug?

    Most selectors leak around that area tbh. Use some brake cleaner and clean it all up, see if you can see the problem areas, but I wouldn't get too concerned if your only losing a small mist every so often. The Renault diagram for the drain plug etc is probably on another image with the linkage...

    New photos of the Arctic 182!

    Plastic gear box drain plug?

    From what I remember, I was the only one who said this on the last thread, also where you said don't bother? Why not bother, for the pennies it costs and risking a potential leak and the hassle of it all to sort it out if it does. Probably cost more than 30p of electric to write that post?

    Rear Wiper Problem

    And mine... but only since my wiper arm got stuck whilst cleaning the car, then snapped when putting it back down. I tried a new non genuine arm, then another genuine one, genuine blade, then changed the motor itself and it still does it... Heres an old picture of mine at its worst during the...

    Rear 172 caliper missing part

    I got them from ECP, both sides were different makes, and only one had the pad holder and they said it was a mistake and shouldn't of had them at all. I went to GSF and had no hassle as they came complete

    Rear Wiper Problem

    As above, may of been removed while the motor was mid sweep, or the motors duff. Either way, its damaging your paint work on the boot, and I also have a spare PH2 motor if you need it :)

    mintno1's PH1 172 Progress Thread

    All I see on CS is them being scrapped these days :( A real dying breed

    Fixing rust in the Petrol Filler

    Good plan and work so far pal but I would recommend removing the filler car for the sake of two nuts? It'll probably need them cutting off but easily re-assembled with some stainless fittings?

    Driveshaft

    its more of the price that keeps people happy as Renault ones for the Cup were £250... EACH! In the same category as the Cup bumper splitter. Discontinued is sad news though... Maybe best to get someone decent to refurbish your Renault ones

    My J&R shafts survived a day at Combe and I'm still alive and passed the MOT

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    This is the PMS system for sale, his looks alright?

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    If an OE one doesnt fit, I'd just leave it without mate. How come the cut outs so large anyway? Also take a look at the PMS exhaust on the for sale section, he's used a rubber surround of some sort and looks good.

    Cup splitter

    I'm more concerned about the shed collapsing and damaging it tbh, it's worth more than the shed now!

    Cup splitter

    KTR one is the same and repairable if it gets damaged. Seems a good price again now too! I have the Skoda one and it does the job but I would much prefer the genuine Cup one on there... But with the price and delicate nature of them, mines going to stay here...

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    Pmsl that's my replacement mate, just a comparison @MrBlonde

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    You can understand why I was so upset when I melted my brand new one on track when my backbox mount failed! Pretty melted tbh... lol... but it would give you an idea if one would work... maybe

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    I would try a 182 surround mate, they are quite flexible and can accommodate a larger size / uneven cut out from ones I've seen. I have a spare melted one you can try lol
  25. Chris_Beer

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    Is the cut out a little too big for the surround? If not perhaps use some of that rubber edging stuff people are starting to use

    MrBlonde's 172 cup

    Finally did it pal, looks good! 2" tip? Needs a 182 surround

    Ride height 172?

    Always better to have the front a little lower than the back IMO But not so much that the wishbones are facing the sky! Maybe 40-50mm gap between the tyre and wheel arch on the front, and the rear a little higher. This all depends of course what wheel / tyre combo you have of course

    Megane R26R

    Refreshing to read that post, glad he's good enough to sort it out for you. I would get those AF towels in the washing machine just in case !
