    curb weight of a 172 cup?

    Not a f**king chance. The williams is about 980kg iirc and that's about the same size as a rollerskate and made of paper.

    curb weight of a 172 cup?

    I've always been a bit confused by the names for weights... I assume kerb weight to mean everything included. The book figure is 1021 Kg. ph2 172 is 1110kg ph2 182 is 1090kg ph2 182 Cup is 1070kg ph1 172 is 1035kg iirc

    SLR Opinion

    Oh and certainly the D40 lacks a few features that the 400d has.. but in terms of pictures, unless you were blowing up to A3 and beyond I doubt the pixel count makes any odds.

    SLR Opinion

    The D80 is about on par with the 400d according to dpreview. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos400d/page22.asp Personally I don't like the way the Nikons I've used process images. Falsely over-saturated inmho, but that could well be a plus for some people! Ultimately there's f**k...

    How can comparing images taken by two different people at different times in different locations be a fair comparison of a camera ffs!! Come on!!

    Metering?!?

    Get better results shooting in raw and post processing the exposure in my experience, but as James says you don't have to.

    Trophy Wheels And Cup Wheels

    172 Cup turinis are ET37.5 iirc... think Trophy may be ET43? Guessing tbh, but the difference is in the offset. Although they should still fit?

    rocker cover gasket

    Mines leaking. I thought I'd read before they didn't use a gasket. b****cks lol. I remeber changing on on my old fezzy. £4 for a cork gasket and a ten minutes to swap it. Those were the days lol :(

    Clio 182 Cup or Clio 182 with Cup Packs?

    182 Cup has Cruise Control, but only manual AC. The only thing it has that the 182 Full Fat doesn't is sunday market upholstery and a steering wheel from the bottom of the range Clio. It's 20kg lighter, which is approx half a tank of fuel.

    Clio 182 Cup or Clio 182 with Cup Packs?

    None. The 182 Cup is pretty f**king pointless tbh, especially if it's no cheaper. Get the 182 with Cup packs.

    What would you pick? 172ff or cup

    That's why I said 'by and large'. Like for like a car 89kg lighter is going to be quicker, no matter how insignificant. But in my experience you're right, the biggest difference can be whether or not you get a good engine in the first place. The Cup does handle 'better' imho. Feels...

    What would you pick? 172ff or cup

    Your's is modded though yes? Throttle response on my FF was increased massively with decat/GrpN ECU. The 172 Cup, by and large, is the quicker car though. But not by much.

    What would you pick? 172ff or cup

    And driving within your limits applies whichever you drive. Because ABS and ESP make no difference remember? ;)

    What would you pick? 172ff or cup

    What did we do before air bags? Before side impact bars? Before crumple zones? Argue all you like, but ABS is one of the most important car safety features of the last 50 years, whether you consider it a necessity or not.

    Clio 172 Vs 106 Gti

    Certainly never lost to one, but the odd one has stuck with me.

    What would you pick? 172ff or cup

    The biggest difference between any RS clio is the driver. Buy the one you like the look/spec/feel of. Not what the paper figures tell you.

    Get decat fitted for 182?

    My 172 decat cost me £40 to get fitted at a local garage and that's a bit of a b*****d to do. The 182 is a piece of piss. If you can operate a spanner you can do it youself. A garage should charge you no more than £20 for doing a 182. Seriously.
