    172, WRX & civic type S on a track

    lol, I think that pretty much sums it up - why on earth would someone track one!?

    195/45/16, 205/40/16, 205/45/16

    Bump this thread, because its not really given any useful information yet (regarding tyres). Has anyone run 205/40/16. Excessive tram-lining, crap ride?

    182 suspension (cup), what's the best upgrade?

    Gaz are the best. I win every race. FULL STOP :clown:

    Washing my car, how to?

    ^^^ Not worth it! ;)

    Removing Catalitic convertor from 182, possible?

    ^^^ not because they have rusted and fallen off though is it Andy? ;)

    182 aftermarket exhaust pics

    Certainly looks very close (but good because of it!)

    Removing Catalitic convertor from 182, possible?

    ...and his work has a life-time guarantee.

    evo8 fq330 v Clio V6 255

    Even considering the development costs, and the cost of making parts of a very limited edition? Just look at the Buggati Vyron, its cost VW £million's to design and produce, yet they're selling each one £800k, which seems like a lot, but considering they're making a £5M loss on each one, its...

    My Autosport pics + I met Jason Plato

    Plato's a c**k. Nevermind, good effort ;)

    Didn't I see a pic of Mark's car with only one pipe?

    182 brake failure

    Before I changed my pads, my servo was changed and it didn't improve things, but I suspect that perhaps they didn't re-bleed the system properly and left air in the system.

    evo8 fq330 v Clio V6 255

    Didn't know there was a dedicated V6 forum? I had a mk1, not a million times different from the mk2. I think on a day-to-day basis it would cope with the mileage (especially the mk2 which has a more solid interior). Its unlikely to feel as quick as even a slow Evo, let alone a 330. I'd own...

    What mods have you regretted/changed and why? The best upgrades...

    True, but from a distance (especially on cars without projector lenses) its not exactly easy to see the difference. By the time they're close-up, you can guess that most rust-buckets won't have xenons! ;) (not saying yours is!!!)

    182 brake failure

    Guy, if the DS2500 is touching that lip, it will seriously effect braking performance. The easiest fix is to have the brake disc very lightly skimmed which will rid you of this.

    What mods have you regretted/changed and why? The best upgrades...

    So many people have these now!? I keep seeing blue lights (as blue as xenons) in the distance, so you play that game of 'guess the car' because you think it must be expensive. Turns out to be some old Fiesta instead. :rasp:

    Hdtv! :-d

    My laptop screen can run 1080p....but my laptop can't! (unless 5fps is your thing :rolleyes: )

    Trophy v 182 cup handling

    Never driven a trophy, but I do remember reading in Evo magazine that the Trophy is more capable. But they also said that due to its improved suspension, it didn't like to mess around in that exciting Clio fashion - something about the rear-end being more planted with less movement / twitchiness.

    172 Cup -->fiesta St

    Throttle bodies.

    Hdtv! :-d

    Well its an LCD/Plasma, so it'll do the 'P' bit. The res is 1280 x 768 (so its 720p compatible). To get it working, either change your monitor res to the above, or download a program called 'Powerstrip' (search in google, its free) which will force that resolution. Then you can simply run media...

    $h!t MPG....

    Cold mornings and short journeys. I've been light-footed on the way to work (10 mins away) and I'm seeing 24mpg :( I got the same in my M Roadster.

    Top 5 mods under £500

    Put the seats down (free) and buy a monkey bike.

    what do you think....

    Excess amounts of plastic. No need :dead:

    Hdtv! :-d

    I tried a couple of the HD clips last night, by connecting my laptop via VGA to the projector and using Powerstrip to create a custom res of 1280 x 720 - but the image wasn't centralised, and it looked 'scaled'. Any thoughts at what I'm doing wrong? Even so, the clips still looked amazing ;)

    MK2 172 with Rota Subzero 16" (5 quality pics)

    I agree that 17's aren't suited to such a small, light car (don't think I'll comment on the bodykit idea lol). These deep dish type wheels look so much better in person than the photos can convey :approve:

    Hdtv! :-d

    I've got my xbox360 running analogue 720p to a Panasonic AE700. Can't wait for HD-DVDs, really starting to notice the difference between xbox and DVD's.
