Gonna start the ice install proper tomorrow, not really a fan of bassboxes (although it sounds nice) The beast is gonna have a false boot floor with the amp hidden under it and Im gonne atempt to make something like the stealth box to move the sub to the side.

forgot me image tags m8 hehe

Had the spit and polish out this morning so I got the camera out and took some pics of the beast. Its only pretty standard so dont get too excited! This is the before pic before I started all the work. http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1057417194__clio1.jpg...

Ive only ever seen about 2 172 with non standard alloys, I think they look okay, suit the car.

You see the tides are turning, theres now 2 172 owners who accept that the VTS is quick!

they wont take your windscreen out on a respray cos they are sometimes bonded in and can only be removed by breaking them.

Mine would be in no particular order cos its too hard to pick - Pug 1.9 GTI. Never owned one but just for sheer legend status as being one of the best hatches. Civic Type R - Not a popular choice on here obviously being the main competitor of the 172 but they ARE fantastic motors (if a...

just flick the nitrous off mate that should sort it

kin ell Im well pissed off with my 15.4 now. Did you take the seats out for that run? Any mods?

One of the lads at my work got done by one of these mobile units. 49 in a 40. Fekkin c**ts. The only saving gfrace really was that he did actually get caught in a built up area near a school etc but its still pisses you off dunnit. As for relying on a 10% +2 rule that is there to make a...

Dimma = Spoilt undergarments

by LSD do you mean Limited slip differential? I would have though that would be standard anway isnt it?

Cruise control will maintain you at whatever speed you set it at, so if you set it to 70 and have to brake the car will go back up to 70 without you pressing the go pedal. I assume a speed limiter just stops you going above whatever speed you set it at (In case you cant co ordinate your eyes...

Got a kenwood tornado jobbie in mine. V loud and very surprised at the quality of it.

Ive had some interior trim replaced and three new keys!! Last time my key died was at york dragway last event. Anyone could have just opened the car up and helped themselves cos I couldnt lock it (well not the boot) Apart from that Ive had no problems.

yeah just wait till your up to temperature and thrash it m8. Mine was fine that way. 2k on the clock now and the engines only just starting to loosen up a bit.

Yeah if I was been brutally honest I could have said that there are more CTRs on the road cos they are better cars but hey at the end of the day they are nearly 3 grand more so you can expect better buld quality. At least in our clios the gearnobs in the right place.

Have you noticed how many CTRs there are on the road? At the weekend I went for a drive over to me grandads house (about 6 miles away) and saw 7 CTRs!! Theres been the odd time Ive been out and seen more than one 172 but now Ive noticed it I keep seeing CTRs all over the place. 172s are...

I got caught doing 80 in a 50 and got 6 points and £200 fine, Attend court and plead for your liscence and you should get about 6 points and a fine. Gutted for you m8 as 100 is feck all on the a64 when theres nothing about.

Lets be realistic. Much as I like my clio if you have a choice between a cup and a scooby then you pretty much go for the scooby dont you? As I say I do love my 172 but if you can afford a scooby your getting yourelf into a whole different league, Turbo 4WD, Massive tuneability hmmmmm. its...

looks mint that m8 like the wheels and it sits nice and low.

41k on a 172 is gonna mean your clutch is fugged m8. Had exactly the same problem on my bravo. Juddered for about 6 months then popped. Get it into reno whilst you still have your warranty.

http://www.k-tecracing.com/products/clio1/engine/ramcharger_induction_kit_1.jpg Im emailing Ktec now to find out when they come out. Looks nicer than a K&N I rekon.

See if theres a "Dixon Hall" near you they do stuff like that

Wish youd stop posting pics of that clio it makes me feel ill. As for his emmissions theres probably only 1 working pipe and the other 18 are dummies. In fact I bet its a big bolt on unit thats screwed onto the standard pea shooter lol.

They are FAR to expensive for what they are. I would have bought a couple but they are £150 of two for £249!! Fair enough they are a trick little product but just a rip off. I got a normal box for £25 instead.

Run a strobe off your boot light, itll look a lot better.

hi m8 Ive got some more yeah will reply to your PM now thanks

PS I think having the clio sport logo sewn into the seats would have been a good move

Craggy m8 I think youve made a mistake with the leather. I think a lead retrim would have been a lot better. You want a bit more wieght on that saxo, slow it down a bit. On the sub front I can reccomend Kenwood tornados. Just got a 700W 12" with a Kenwood KAC 629S amp for £125 souds good and...
