I've done a search on here to try and find out if anyone has the Supersprint Stealth system fitted to their 172 Ph2, but I can't find too much about it.
Does anyone have one fitted, either the one with the centre silencer or without? If so, what was it like to fit and are there any problems...
Ah balls, I've spent 2hrs doing one light and it looks okay, but the scratches are that deep they will still look turd.
I'll just get the renparts ones!
I'm going to have a go at refurbishing my 172 cup headlights today.
If I don't get the result I want, I may buy some new ones as they're around £60 a pair on ebay from Renparts etc.
But, are these actually any good compared to the genuine Renault ones I have at the moment or are they inferior...

Just having a read through some old topics on here, and found that there were only ever 90 Clio 172 cups made in Iceberg Silver.

I didn't know when buying that they were so rare, but I'd not ever come across a silver cup...
Feck me!!! Someone needs to start churning these out in flexible polyurethane! You could make a killing knocking those out at £85 or so!
Maybe the K-Tec one for me then.
AFAIK it is a genuine one, but its cracked at the front, so I was thinking of maybe getting a K-Tec carbon one, but I think that's as far as I'd be going in fitting after market styling parts, other than some slightly lower springs, maybe some Eibach Sportlines.
How much are genuine front...
I know, straight out of the DTM touring car championship lol :tongueclosed:
It'll be off within the next couple of weeks once the new one is here though.
Cheers buddy, I only saw this one in silver when I was looking, all the rest were blue. I don't know how many silver ones there are though, but they seem fewer than the blue ones to me at least!
Ok, so after owning a Mk1 Clio 1.8 16v in 2002, I vowed I'd never buy another Renault again. The valver was to that point the most enjoyable car I had driven, but the worst for things going wrong.
In hindsight, I don't think I cared for it particularly well at the time, so maybe I had myself to...
Yes, the PMS units are not cheap!
I have another question though, I looked at how the back box is mounted on my 172, and it's held on by two rubber O rings, the usual rubber type. I replaced one as it looked like it was about to give way.
But on the chassis rails there are a load of holes where...
I picked up my 172 Cup last week and it came with a Cobra twin tail pipe cat back exhaust system, but its not really my thing.
I'm looking at getting a K-Tec Stealth system, but what is the difference in noise levels between the sport and supersport?
Any other recommendations welcome for a...
Just gave these guys a call and they were super friendly, great to deal with, and the prices seem very good compared to my local Renault dealer. Just placed an order which should arrive on Wednesday. Cheers for the recommendation Ads, much appreciated :)
Ah I see, I thought they were your local dealer or something, but if they are substantially cheaper then ill certainly give them a try, are they an independent set up?
Thanks Ads, may give my local dealer a call first for the sensor and coolant.
In terms of the thermostat, Eurocarparts do a Circoli one at less that £4. Renault is around £25.
Has anyone used the ECP one?
I picked up my 172 Cup on Friday and I'm pretty happy with it so far.
But, the temp gauge is reading low so I guess the the thermostat is knackered, but I want to change the coolant temp sensor too whilst I'm at it.
Does anyone have a part number or link for the right one?
Also, I'll be...
Parts are coming for the new ND MX-5, as mentioned above, a lot of the Japanese tuning houses are developing parts for the new model:

Here's my current Mk1 Roadster :smile:
Anyone have an idea on this?
53 plate 172 Cup in silver, 76K, cambelt done recently,
Wheels need a refurb, interior wear (may need a bit of a refurb, some new plastics. wheel etc), body looks good, no dents, all original except after-market exhaust and airbox.
I'm thinking about £1600?
I'm in Halifax, West Yorks buddy, but this appears the only decent car I've found so far. I'm willing to travel though, but it will be a long day 😧
I've spoken to the seller and he seems pretty fair & upfront, so this is looking at the moment as the likely candidate. But that journey...
