owned my phase 1 172 for 2 years and never needed mayjor work touch wood, new tyres, new exhaust and 2 services thats all its cost me. Not including mods like coilover a decat and what not
I'd garage the fucker and save up tip I could afford the fix. It's not a engine rebuild after canbrlt failure so should be fine.
But if not how much you selling it for? Lol
Pair of pliers pull the bonnet release cable grommiy back Fred power cable through
Remove colant bottle so you can get to the bulk head.
Little hint if you tie a bit of nylon string to the end of the power cable and feed that through first you can use that to pull the power cable through.
And...
+1 had the same burning smell with my ketch stealth and they had posted on here saying it's the bags burning away. Mine took quite a few road trips to lose the smell
Whatever you decided to do keep the mid silencer in there as I found that that made the most difference in noise when I removed it, wish I had kept the mid silencer now as with a decat my stealth is stupidly loud
Take CDA airbox off get a phase 1 172 or v6 airbox on. Decat, and the cheapest of cheapest thing to do is strip it it's free and you save weight. No Renault is cheap to make faster they cost s**t loads to do anything with
To change the 172 cat it's a pain in the arse I just pay a garage to take it off and then mot it, then get them to put it bk on,£10 well spent if you ask me saves me a couple of hours of grazing my hand and swearing at coroded bolts lol. That's what I do anyways
kinect can pick up several movements at once so surely you just sit down and use your feet as if you were pushing pedals in a real car. really cant wait for kinect just hopeing that its not all wii style games
Single lambda sensor on the early phase 1 is shorter that's the only difference. Is there and other photos of that phase 1 as that exhaust looks like a proper stealth! Hidden complaint behind the bumper not like my ktec stealth lol how much did the exhaust set you back then, and does it have a...
Just an idea for future shows On this but maybe not park so close to each other I mean there was loads of space when I walked around the owners area (at about 1230 on Sunday lunchtime) but all the cars where so close to each other it was like walking through a mine field I was actually scared...
Just don't decat it and it should b find lol think the ktec fits really well as well, the weigh a bit though so I changed my exhaust mounts whilst the exhaust was off as well
The exhaust system is fairly loud but not crazy loud, I have one on mine and it was raspy at the the top end. Only complaint I have is that it's extremely droney on the motorway in 5th gear between 55mph-70+mph. Decat it and it goes ridiculously loud, sounds like a f**king rally car lol
