From experience an FN2 is a great daily but I dont think it would be the most focused for track work. Having never driven a 197 or 200 I'd say buy the cheaper car and have some change for track days/tuition. Could always get a 172/182?

Hi guys, Is there any solution to the top mount Caps sitting high in the engine bay? I thought the answer was the new style top mount nuts but apparently not. Cheers

Painted my calipers Black just to tidy them a bit.

Yeah he was spot on with me, even gave me a Lambda sensor for nowt! He a had a Blue Clio 200 on the ramps that was awaiting a rebuilt Megane engine that looked rather nice too.

Try people like Greenlight and Sky insurance, they were always very good for me but yeah never pay the renewal price.

Mark isnt mentioned too much on here from what I've seen, I took my Cup to him earlier this year for the belts and he did a sound job, nice guy too.

It looks like "HT" means it was registered in Portsmouth. My cup is also a HT (HT53 SNX).

Mine are well worn in at this point and since the temperatures dropped they don't have much grip. Brilliant when they get heat in them though.

Just spotted a 172 cup on the hard shoulder north bound on the A1 between Blyth and the M18 junction. We were going southbound so couldn't stop. Hope everything's ok of you are on here. Rich

Managed to get the car running again, turns out whoever had wired the stereo into the car left one of the wires exposed that then caught on something and blew a fuse. Replaced the fuse and all is well. Thank you to everyone that commented and a Big thank you to @MicKPM for speaking to me on...

They all looked ok but it was starting to rain so might not have checked everyone. That's another thing we will be doing tonight.

We are checking the starter with jumper cables later then we are going to try to find all of the earths and make sure they are good. One under the dash could make a lot of sense.

It was 12.4v.

Ok will give that a try when I go home. My Dad did disconnect the battery last night but it was only for 30 seconds or so.

My Dad tested the battery with a Voltmeter and its putting out what it should be.

Yes, tried it without the hazard button and tried it with the old one, same result. Rich

Hi All, I bought a 53 plate 172 cup last week and all seemed fine with the exception of the speedo drive in the gearbox and the hazard warning light switch. Last night we replaced the speed sensor with not too much issue (had the car running after), my Dad also replaced the Hazard button and...

Isnt the 12-15 bhp if you get the stage 1 and 2 package?

Yeah, been lingering in the background here for a while lol

Hi Mattie:rasp:

I know someone who is having a bad experiance with markerstudy but that didnt put me off going through sky, they were cheaper than the comparison sites and they are very good when it comes to changing cars ect.

Saw a blue 172 cup going along the A57 (Worksop) about 8.50 this morning.

Hey guys, I saw this information on a pug 206 site and thought it may be useful here, i know alot of people wont do what is being said in the following but some people do so here it is; Jamie: Just a little heads up to those who have project threads on here... Think carefully about posting...

Just so you know exhausts UK are shite they butchered my down pipe to put a de-cat on and a mate of mine had a manifold done by them and had to have it rewelded 4 times before telling them he wanted them to pay out for an ecosse one because he was fed up of there crap workmanship.

Welcome, im originally from Dinnington but i've now moved to worksop.

I have driven an EM1 coupe and its just not that fast, the honda guys like to think they are but there not, there is absolutely no power below 5k and when you do hit v-tec it makes a cool noise but thats about it. They are very reliable though. If you like your thrills do not buy a civic VTI!!

I think if you want some extra cash its a good idea, you say downgrade, is that just because of the age and value of the cars you are looking at because i would have thought that a 172 was just as much fun as your current car, and if you wanted a decent civic for that money wouldnt it be a VTI...
