    the law with engine conversions

    tax bands are more to do with engine emissions than anything else so dont really see how what it looks like has much to do with it tbh

    Looking to cam my ph1 172 help needed please!!!

    omex 600 would be about £1,000 fitted which i wouldnt call 'cheap' myself. in fact id actually call it a 'significant amount.' you can then spend £650 on the cams, and about £500 fitting them. so its starting to add up. unless you went for a milder cam, and then a basic remap but then your...

    Looking to cam my ph1 172 help needed please!!!

    really depends on the profile thats used. the other consideration is that you will probably want to go with a more sophisticated remap. so say something like the omex 600, and thats not a cheap mod to do.

    the law with engine conversions

    you dont pay the tax for a 1.2, you pay the tax for a 2.0 as your car has to be re-registered as a 2.0. if you stick a lump in and tell your insurance company without telling the dvla then you will be liable for having no road tax. so not worth the risk imo

    Stainless 172 exhaust systems

    who can remove my middle section?

    ^ thats a bit ghetto isnt it lol would be a bit of an arse, but the main diffiuclty is in sourcing the pipe. welding would be better, but that would do, dependant on how tight the join was naturally between the two ends.

    Stainless 172 exhaust systems

    How to go about insuring a 172

    theres a few threads about this if you do a search where people are split between going for it if you can afford it, and other people claiming your a r****d. there are ways of doing it, but i wouldnt bother myself.

    How much are these seats worth?

    rear bench is worth around 150. quite desirable with the doorcards for recaro owners. as for the rsi seats they're really not worth that much. i wouldnt want to accept more than 100 for them in px, as you'll struggle to sell them on for any sort of decent price / look odd in your 172 if you...

    ** Changing drivers-side wing mirror 53-reg 172

    pull the plastic bit towards you as its stuck in with three plastic plugs. this reveals the three screws you have to undo, and the electrical block you need to undo. literally takes no longer than a couple of mins

    who can remove my middle section?

    take it to someone like powerflow (as they will have a stock of stainless pipes to use.) i wouldnt want to pay more than £30 myself.

    Tracking/4 wheel alignment

    you tell her! lol had my old car fully setup on coilovers and it made a massive difference, however my un-coilovered 172 made do with a £20 4 wheel tracking at the local garage.

    Low MPG - 27 on a 1.2! engine faults galore...

    you need to get that sorted, as if you sell it on the buyer aint going to be impressed. especially as its chucking petrol out the back (my 1.2 averaged 50mpg) not that sure to be honest on the diagnostics side of it

    What engine Oil and Gearbox Oil

    will be buying some millers gearbox oil for mine as soon as my car comes back. also a rather poor excuse to have a blast to wrexham to pick it up from demon tweeks. there loads of places locally that sell it but dont tell the missus ;) think the millers is £50 off DT. also quite like...

    1.2 16v Power! (vids of sports cat and stealth)

    the video was taken after it was fitted, and after 10,000 miles lost a lot of its raspyness. I loved the sound of it personally I purely posted the video because everyone was pm'ing me asking for one, so it was purely to shut them up

    Coilovers

    i'm currently swinging towards the KW myself, although i may save some money and get some cheap and cheerful FK's as i doubt my car will ever get any proper tracking and i might want it lower than KW's can provide (20mm max at the rear). i was talking to dave on here who had some KW variant 1's...
