see the other post on the same subject. you can get a dealer-supplied cup for £11.9k if you negotiate a bit. Also another post claiming reno have a "friends and family" discount allowing you to get one for about £10.5k if I remember correctly. Well worth searching around.

does this translate into: youve removed the catalytic converter and now your idling speed has gone funny and the engine stalls?

you just say what you will pay. I negotiated £11.9k on mine, and ended up buying a demo with 2k miles for considerably less than that.

you can get a cup from a reno dealer, brand new for under £12k, why would you want to buy one elsewhere unless its cheaper?

Tim, what made you go for the silicon hose to inlet - shorter length to gain more room? Where did you get the fog replacement brake duct?

there seem to be at least half a dozen people chasing TBs, would it make sense getting together to get a better deal or at least to help whoever is developing the kit justify the upfront investement??

Brun youre a star. Keepem coming!

okedoke. Ill post results - if i dont strangle myself with my handy work ...

I want to keep the normal seat belt and fit the harness + leave it in the back when not needed. Ill probably buy a 3-point harness and experiment..

I recently had a k-tec cat back fitted, including a silencer which makes it very civilised. you can chose tailpipe design on the k-tec site. It makes a discreet business-like sound at idling, very nice roar above 4500 revs. Only minor issue is boominess at mway speeds, but youll get that or much...

anybody figured out a way to effectively fit a 4 point harness while keeping the standard seat in my cup? Need the harness for practical reasons, dont need the race seat look for equally practical reasons..

k-tec cat back exhaust. Improves the looks and sound dramatically - Soon to find out if it does anything to performance (with other minor mods). Take a look at the k-tecracing.com site for twin 3" exhaust pics.

CB1A can you source renaultsport parts from the super1600 or formula cup?

if you ask nicely you can call masterflex.co.uk and theyll send you a sample - free. They have a huge range of hoses etc.

Ive seen pics of a modded mk1 172 on a jap site with exactly that mod.

yes, its going to be one of these articulated angled jobs.

so you need a front stiffy ...

Wayne, 187 sounds good. Some Qs: Didnt you expect more with viper/chip? Do you have the standard exhaust? how much did the Schip cost you and did they use a specific map to cater for your IK? sorry for all the Qs..

bit out of context now.. meant to go with the "stop this f**^^%% thread" message ...

Just stop this stoopid thread for crying out loud. Youre occupying too much prime real estate :)

my first purchased car was a 1978 fiat miriafiori 1300 purchased in 1985 off a shady Nigerian bloke in London. It was a real dog and I used it to race in the woods near Surrey U (more like bounce off the tress..) and to commute to Uni. Needless to say the stoopid car was completely knackered...

cupsize u animal ;) you should consider a "natural gas" conversion on the cup.

Sorry to hear that. Get well soon!

there was a recent thread on car graphics or car design in the exterior forum. I had a look and they can do any plate style you like. Have a quick search.

OOOOOOaaaahh, is this because hes a discerning cup owner? "Suit you sir " n all that? Kh Kh Kh couldnt help it, the cup vs. "normal" 172 thread is killing me. havent seen you drive through W9 lately with the canary Mk1 ... (Duck, incoming...)
