    False floor

    You'd have to make sure it's pulled over really tightly doing it that way though. I found the spray adhesive much easier.

    NW Rolling Road meet @ RS Tuning Sat 8th May 2010

    What time do you reckon you'll be there till? Looking at the long list I'm thinking a good few hours and if I get done at work at a reasonable time I might be able to get down there before all the RR runs have been done.

    False floor

    If you fit the floor tightly enough, it should be ok without the bolts to be honest. I've got 6"x9"s cut in to my floor and have one piece of it sitting in fairly loosely so I can still have access to the spare wheel.

    False floor

    You could countersink them in to the floor and paint them? I've got silver bolt heads showing in mine but I wasn't overly fussed by them. Is it going to be a permanent floor or are you going to make it so you can remove it easily, i.e for the spare wheel? If not you could fit the floor...

    False floor

    Looks good once it's finished IMO, When you're cutting the MDF, deliberately cut it to big and keep nibbling bits off it till it sits nice and tight. I also drilled two holes through it and bolted it down to the holes left by Isofix bar.

    False floor

    Use the boot carpet as a template for one half. Once I'd fitted the MDF I covered it in Acoustic carpet and stuck it on with spray adhesive.

    172 Cup 03 plate Stretford

    Saw a blue 172 Cup with white wheels around the Trafford park/Eccles area last night and I've been informed it's been involved in a serious accident just outside Stretford Arndale this morning.

    Painted calipers blue today on the Arctic.

    No one will notice it, I knocked big lumps of paint out of mine when I changed the brake pads and discs and no one has noticed that. How many coats did you have to apply? Mine took 4 but I'd used a lighter colour (Yellow)

    Painted calipers blue today on the Arctic.

    Looks good. Surprising how much of a difference it makes isn't it? Very tedious job though.

    Starter motor heat shield

    Yeah lol. After alot of swearing and a burnt thumb :mad:. What a pain in the arse of a job that was.

    Will a broke exaust do damage?

    A blow in the exhaust will effect performance.

    video of my clio 172 with no exhaust

    Mine's basically that and it sounds nothing like that lol.

    Starter motor heat shield

    Managed to get it fitted now. Pain in the arse though, had to remove the Plenum and undo the mani from the back of the engine and push it back to allow enough access to clip it on.

    Not enjoy my new 182

    Could it be a case of you've heard alot of good things about them, heard alot of positive hype and it hasn't lived up to expectation so you're disappointed by it. When I had my 1st one, I knew nothing about them and when I test drove it, I was amazed by it. Yet with this I was expecting to...

    Mk1 F4R/172'd Track Car Project [Year 3 - Engine and Chassis Rebuild]

    Re: Mk1 F4R'd Track Car Project [2010 Winter Rebuild] Doing a few late night shifts on the car then? oh and annoying the neighbours again and them complaining the area isn't a scrapyard :rasp: lol

    Oil filter removal tool

    I managed to get mine off with the cheapo chain tool from Halfords. It is abit of pain pissing about due to their being little room, got to be careful to not snap any sensors around that area as well.

    Wing mirror colour?

    Personally I'd keep the wing mirrors the same as the car, not a fan of different coloured wing mirrors though. Although if it was a case of having to have them a different colour I'd probably go black.

    Mixing oil grades

    I haven't got much left of either to be honest, just a case of using it rather than it just sitting there. Yeah 5w40 is Renaults Recommended grade, although I've heard rumours that some of them don't use that grade themselves.

    Mixing oil grades

    Currently got 10w40 engine oil in the engine at the moment but I've got 0w40 and 5w40 in the garage. Would I be able to top up with the 0w40 and 5w40 without causing problems?

    Cup suspension

    The front shocks have put abit of camber on the front wheels as well. Well worth having this set up though, especially coming from standard shocks anyway. Body roll is pretty much eliminated and the car just feels so much more confidence inspiring. Thinking about the Whiteline ARB as the next...

    Possible new splitter found!! (Skoda Fabia)

    Re: Possible new splitter found!! Lol. There was 140 left when I ordered mine last week. Have people been buying them in bulk?

    Cup suspension

    Handling is 10 times better, turn in is sharper and the back end feels more planted. Got them set on the hardest setting at the moment, it does get abit choppy and bouncy on really rough roads but the ride is no where near as bad as I thought it was going to be. Haven't got any pics but the...

    Cup suspension

    Even the "Cup" set up rolls about abit through corners. I'd look in to upgrading to coilovers or use the current set up I have, Koni Adjustable dampers with Eibach Sportline springs.

    Should I let my 182 go cheap?

    +1 At the moment, you know this car and what needs/might need doing to it. Where as with another car you'll be starting again and the money you've freed up might need using to put it right.

    Ride height of 172 cup

    If you look at normal 172s and 182s though they appear to sit more level than the Cups and they have the same arches. Both my Cups have appeared to sit nose up and it annoyed the hell out of me lol.

    182 ff cup to a 182 trophy

    As Eddy says, drive one, only way you'll appreciate the difference and go from there. Can't really comment from a 182 to a Trophy but the handling is worlds apart from my Cup when it was on it's standard set up.

    Kev182Cup had a piper exhaust on his 172 Cup I think and he said that sounded good.
