    Simota Induction Kit

    I'm of the same thinking, probably give the car a bit more roar though:D and look attractive to the eye when I pop the bonnet. But are they a decent bit of kit? also looking at a Viper, so I got to make a decision by tonight

    Fuel pump gone, how to change?

    looks a hell of a lot different, might just be easier picking one up from the scrap yard rather than mixing and matching parts

    Thinking about buying a 172...

    Check that all the panels line up correctly, and the doors are straight, always good idea to take a close look at the rubber seals around windows and inside of arches for signs of over spray when its been painted, but a good HPI check may reveal any serious accident damage.

    Thinking about buying a 172...

    My cars a P1 with 36k on the clock and the exhaust is knackard, if the seller tells you the car is well fast and it beats all that he has raced then walk away, you want one with a good service history and a mature driver like me;)

    Should i buy this 172?

    Gotta agree, the wheels look terrible, but they'll fetch money on e-bay. Cars a re better with a service history, it gives you piece of mind, but even the best looked after cars can go wrong, just take it for a real good test drive.
