£406.62. Does this sound about right? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8012225179&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

I have a list of programs a friend would like me to 'acquire' for his graphics degree course. Programs like PS, Illustrator etc. Can I 'acquire' the normal version or does it need to be Mac specific?

It's a well worn question I know but which are the best springs to offer a 30-40 mm drop (I don't want to start popping driveshafts or causing damper leaks), an improvement in handling or at least the same ability as standard yet a good quality ride (as near to standard as possible). I have read...

When I have the ignition on listening to the stereo, the throttle actuator on the side of the inlet makes a buzzing noise. Is this common and what is it doing?

I want to compare my cars power and torque figures to a standard car. Does anyone know the standard figures of a mk2 172 and 182. Power graphs would be even more useful.

I know it is probably someones pride and joy but WHY???? I didn't manage to get a photo of the sideskirts which appeared to be made of wood!!! PICS NOT WORKING, I'LL REHOST

Just had my silicone elbow delivered about 30 mins ago (!!!) courtesy of Think automotive. Well happy, it tidies the inlet up nicely and was cheap as chips at less than £20 delivered. Only just manages to sit over the airbox lip though. Pics: No breather inlet as it is now vented under...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CLIO-172-182-CUP-SPLITTER_W0QQitemZ4583513790QQcategoryZ10410QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem These are back on again for anyone interested. Not mine. I bought one though and they are well worth it.

My 172 is on roughly 31k. I know that the plug change intervals are massive on these but would a new set of decent plugs be of benefit? What should I look for? Would decent leads be worth bothering with as I can't see the original items having taken too much stick.

That looks superb. Could anyone change the colout to Iceberg silver?

I've had the car about 1 month now and I'm loving it. Spending too much money but still loving it. Check the pics, sorry for the poor quality. As the Silver Bullet arrived: Cup splitter fitted today: Before After A couple of shots of my uprated 70mm air feed: All cleaned...

Ive been looking at this: http://www.thinkauto.com/acatalog/Price_List_Aluminised_heat_resistant_cloth_278.html I was thinking about buying a sheet to cover my airbox as black obviously attracts heat. Would this help lower inlet temperatures? Is it self adhesive?

I have a mk2 172 with a PiperX panel filter, uprated air feed (including removal of acoustic valve), custom stainless exhaust with small middle silencer and a remap. Disregarding the remap, what sort of BHP figure would I be looking at with the filter and exhaust setup? What would a decat give...

I'm getting a straight through silicone inlet elbow made up for my mk2 172 without a plug for the crank case breather. I have 2 choices with the breather pipe. I can run a length of pipe along the underside of the car and vent it to the atmosphere. (Plan B) Get a friend of my brothers to...

With my old man having brought me 7' of 70mm bore ducting home for my air box last night, I got stuck in tonight. After muchos messing, re-routing bits of loom, re-jigging the horn and the removal of the acoustic valve/20mph valve, I was left with this: I was quite suprised at how well the...

My old boy has just got in from work with a little present for me: over 7' of 70mm bore ducting, all FOC. Simpe things please simple minds.

Specs taken from the Samco site: Bore Bore Wall thickness Leg length 70mm 2 3/4" 5.0mm 125mm To be used in conjunction with the standard airbox on a Mk2 172. Will the leg length be sufficient and could I vent the oil breather to the atmosphere?

I am about to fit a V6 spoiler to my 172 but I need the shorter struts. Would one of you kind ladies or gentlemen be able to measure your boot srtuts for me at full extension and also the length of the silver piston and black sleeve. I feel a scrap yard raid coming on LOL. Thanks in advance.

What should be quicker? Had a jaunt with one and I was quite disappointed by the Audis pace. Anyone else had any experiences?

Sorry Eves, I borrowed your picture. Your car is well tidy. I just can't decide between Turinis or Superlegerras. Can someone 'shop 17'' Superlegs onto this for me so I can compare.

Probably a stoooopid question. I had a quick look tonight and thought I could hear the music coming from either side of the parcel shelf. On inspection I found some strange ribbed plastic panels covering a sponge insert but no speakers. Am I being slack?

As above, what are they worth. Do they throw up any fuelling issues as there are 2 lambda fixings. What would a custom jobbie cost?

The air feed which runs down behind the headlight into the arch somewhere, where does it go and how can I get to it? It appears to split off into 2. I tried pushing a piece of flex down it earlier to see where it went but it came to an obstuction. Is this the 20mph valve?

When I got my car a couple of weeks ago, it only came with 1 key. I asked if there was only 1 and I was told it was all they received with the car. Are they like Fiats with a master key or are both keys the same? How much is a 2nd likely to cost?

Has anyone heard of or had experience of ChippedUK, I found them on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8003181405&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 I emailed them asking about their maps etc. and wether they are generic or model specific. Here is the reponse I...

I always thought my mk2 172 would have an alarm but I lifted the bonnet the other day when the car was locked on the fob and nothing happened. Is this right? How difficult would say a Toad AI606 be to fit as they are only £102 on the 'bay.

Can gas struts be shortened. I am getting a V6 spoiler for my Clio 172 but as the V6 and Trophy use shorter struts the spoiler will catch the roof. I am not paying what Renault are asking. So can they be modded?

As above, Can anyone measure their gas struts for me? I am just wanting the measurement of full extension so I can go scouring scrap yards for similar sized units after fitting my V6 spoiler. Cheers, Ben

I've just been quoted £300 to have my front and rear bumpers, a V6 spoiler and my bonnet sprayed by a local bodyshop. I didn't think it would be that steep. For the £90-£100 it will costs for the chips I think I may go with Chipsaway for that. Dentmaster for my dents and a bodyshop just for...

Not my auctions, though the guy does have the same surname. £50 including P+P. I've just treated the silver bullet to one. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4578655977&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1
