the black insert 17s look better too!, there is a set local on ebay keeping an eye on them!
this handles a bit soft having the GT chassis but still plenty of grip, my last GT on AP coilovers was epic and that was only running T1-R's!, sub 1,000kg is the key to the fun on these!
Im with you on that one mark. but definately want coilovers like my last one and stage 2 this time rather than stage 1
Daniel, no bump, 172s are absolute money pits these days, and once modded these are just as much if not more fun! Only reason i went gordini is they are the newest tce twingo...
that looks good, still sitting on the fence to see what i want to do with it, dont want to jump in and spend a fortune on it until ive decided what i think
this will be controversial!!
mate offered me good cash on my 172 and this popped up local, just over 2yrs old with 23k miles, balance of warranty left, immaculate
Plans are RS Tuning stage 2 with 172 injectors (around 140bhp 150lb/ft), Coilovers and my 40mm Spacers.
sitting on the fence...
there is no hole in his intake pipe he has it blocked with the supplied plug?
I still stand by the fact that they run better on the standard recirc valve though the guy who has my old one has a forge dump valve on it and it doesn't drive as nice and sounds terrible, its like a baby sneezing...
as above less than £100 for an OptiPlex with a core2duo and stick 2gb of ram in it that's what ive been doing recently for people looking for systems works out much cheaper than building with current new budget kit
I posted up about building a F4R kangoo 4x4 a few years back and basically got told to forget it as the drive train is horribly fragile
the diesel doesn't have more torque than the F4R as said above, it was a detuned 1.9 dci with only 130lb/ft, 20 less than a standard 172
my first ph2 172,
ITG Pannel filter, Samco Bend, AWT matched inlets, 182 exhaust manifold, Ktec Decat/link pipe & Ktec stealth
and the 200 standard bar a Pipercross panel filter
yeah totally ive had F1s on most of my clios at some point and always loved it but for some reason it just didn't look right on this!
ive had a few 172's and always spent a bit of cash on them then sold them and never got them where I wanted, but this time I decided ill go for it. clutch needs...
cheers guys, its a real different car from the shed I picked up :)
although it does owe me about £4000 now inc buying it, but it was always a keeper from the beggining
