    White 172

    Nice, trophy spoiler looks cool! Unsure on the wheels though! I wonder exactly how many White rs's there are??

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    Hmm not sure on what hoses to go for as yet? :S The engine bay will eventually be White when the engine comes out. So the blue colour scheme will be out the window then! I've decided it's just gunna be black/White/carbon throughout. Just taken the red stickers off the wheels and polished the...

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    Ah cool! Thanks for that, thatl be coming off then! Yeah I think your right! I've ruled out the red detailing now. Sticking with pure black and White! Red wheel stickers are coming off and I'm re-doing the sill protectors in carbon and White. Hoses will prob go White but may go black aswell...

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    Just a few updated pics of the engine bay. Over the past few weeks ive been tidying it up! Done a bit of painting and polishing and added a carbon engine cover. Next job under there is to add some red or white samcos and get rid of the blue, it will tie in better with the car IMO:

    White 1*2 york dragway

    Yeah and a 14.1 was his best he was usually in the mid 14's. I was quite dissapointed and so was he! Like I said though he didn't look like he could launch at all and the tyres were still spinning half way down the strip, I think this was a mix between the poor tyres and the driver! The blue...

    White 1*2 york dragway

    Was you there today? He was there! It's a lad from Wakefield, not a member on here. It's a turbo coverted 182 cup resprayed in White, it does have cut outs for the exhaust but the silencers sit low! Pikey conversion (lads done it himself), the quickest time it ran was a 14.1, it's running about...

    Custom inlet manifold

    £1500!!! Jesus! Why! You can buy uprated inlets for other cars for a couple of hundred quid!

    Custom inlet manifold

    Right, what I want to know is why no renault tuning companies have produced a custom inlet manifold? You get good gains from matched inlets but they still arnt ideal as you can't smooth all the rough cast away right through the inlets. My mate is a very good engineer and has made alot of...

    Engine mount help!

    Pulled the engine forward, seems better, Thanks! I want uprated mounts (and need them) but just cant afford £200 at the min so standard ones will have to do for now! :(

    Engine mount help!

    If it's all the way forward will that give it more clearance from the subframe?

    Engine mount help!

    I was pulling and pushing it about 2 inch forwards and backwards yeterday, If not more, lol! I didn't know where to set it though so I put it about in the middle. Is it better as far forward as poss ( pulled towards the front bumper ) and will that eliminate my knocking? What is it that knocks...

    Engine mount help!

    My engine was vibrating and knocking last week on idle. It was also juddering and knocking pretty bad when setting off. I checked the engine mounts and they were shot - big time! The top mount was snapped where the rubber is so it wasn't even holding the engine in! Lol. Anyways I got hold of...

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    I am taking the new wheels for refurbing in gloss black next week, but before I took the tyres off and stripped them down I just wanted to see what they looked like out of interest in anthracite. IMO they look pretty cool but no where near as good as the gloss black wheels, so they will be going...

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    I have ordered some of the 3m carbon sheeting and I am going to make some inserts for the front bumper out of that. Also I have now changed the exhaust, I have put a genuine Renault backbox on it, Looks nice and neat from the back end now and I love the sound it makes, when driving steady it...

    Wheel bearing help...

    The wheel bearing has gone on the front of my 172. Is it something I can do myself or do the bearings need to be pressed in? Has anyone got any experience with this? Also I spoke to the local garage, they want £30 plus the price of the bearing, is that a good price?

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    Just to update, I have found a set of O.Z f1s in 16". I payed £140 for all 4 with new admiral tyres on, IMO they were a real bargain. These will be getting refurbed next week in Gloss black, my tyres fitted, and then my car will once again have 4 alloys on! Best part about it is I will have 3...

    humming and clicking from dash

    Yeah they are both normal, the clicking is the wiper relay and the humming - both of my 172's have done that!

    200 vs Mini JCW

    My mate had one and sold it after 6 months, he was very dissapointed in the performance, he put a forge intercooler on it and apart from that it was stock, he couldnt get better than a 15.5 sec quarter mile. I had a go and managed a 15.10 but my stock 172 still did a 15.01! :rasp: Id much...
