    Silverstone Classic Event Pics

    Me too. Fantastic shot of a fantastic car. The processing work is more or less spot on here, but is otherwise over-used. Great pics!

    Clio alloy prices, 182, 172 cup, 172.

    I prefer the 172 5 spokes to the 182 wheels personally. I think the main reason the 172 wheel are so cheap is 1. Most of them are fucked or at least kerbed. Been a long time since I've seen a really mint set up for sale. 2. A lot of people change them so lots on the market. I sold my 172...

    my 172

    They're all built in France, in the same factory. Homologation? Homologation of what exactly?

    Adjustable spanners are for monkeys! Glad you got it out though ;)

    CLIO 172 GEAR SPEEDS

    The gears are longer in the ph1. They were shortened in the Ph2 to counter the extra weight. Ph1's are still 4000000 times quicker though apparently.

    Cheaper than springs!!

    It's not like springs are that expensive anyway. That is pretty f**king pikey tbh.

    My 172 Trouncing on a CTR @ Pod

    The guy in the CTR didn't exactly launch very well did he? lol

    I need a kick in the balls

    I put my lights on if it goes a bit dark or the sun is low. Even if it means only one more person in a thousand is going to see you and take notice it's worth it imho.

    Induction kit or original airbox..?

    I thought I was on my own with this one tbh. lol.

    Whats the best Filter for a Cup172?

    Just buy any other airbox, put it in and give it a cold air feed. Then call it a home made Maxogen. Completely unsubstansiated and un proven, but the general populus of CS will believe absolutely anything. ;)

    Home made 'Maxogen' fitted today...

    Ghetto I'm biting my tongue about people that call these things Maxogens.

    Just Had De-Cat Fitted But...

    All the Ktec stealths I've heard have been raspy tbh.

    Is my 03 172 FF an import??

    Was mid to late '03, dropped to the options list (£200) - Cruise Control was fitted in lieu. The only people who are likely to haggle over an import now are dealers. It made a difference when the car was newish however.

    Advice needed - expensive engine problem...

    What's wrong with helicoil? Never had any trouble with them myself (different application, but still high-ish pressure)

    Buying a ClioSport 172??

    35 mpg is easiy acheivable. The MPG you get from these cars is fantastic tbh. You can get a genuine 40 mpg on a run. And I'd take the 185 bhp figure with a pinch of salt.

    Air Filters

    The Maxogen is so much more than noise. But it aint cheap.

    My car at Street Life NEC 2008

    Not my thing, but looks kinda cool. Nice one.

    Golf GTI ED30 v Leon Cupra K1 (pic heavy)

    Five doors! Booooooo! lol Both look mint imho. I think the mk5 golf is a little plain looking tbh. Wouldn't turn one down mind!

    172cup, poverty spec was least of his worries!

    Exactly. Oh and Cups are more to insure than FF's.... simply because of the proportion of total loss claims. The winter cull of Cups is the stuff of legend lol

    a quick pick of HK skyline

    needs straightening and cropping, but decent shot! I need IS in my life tbh.

    changing 172 manifold for 182 manifold

    I guess if you're doing it yourself then why not. I've driven a 172 with a 182 manifold.... don't expect miracles lol

    changing 172 manifold for 182 manifold

    Not necessarily superior. The decat will make the biggest difference I reckon.
  24. L

    changing 172 manifold for 182 manifold

    just get a decat. Not worth bothering with the manfold imho.

    battery relocation

    Definitely fuse as close to the battery as possible imho. If you get a short anywhere in the cable between the battery and the fuse in the front.... things could get messy lol
