About 12 volts.:p

There are at least 4 Mk1 172s in my local town. Including a blue one, with lexus lights....:sick:

Yup, theyre a variable vane turbo iirc. Cracking liitle cars actually the Dcis....make more sense than the 1.6 imho which is neither one nor the other - not fast, not frugal. I bet theyre wouldnt be a great deal between them once up and running but the dci will get you 50+ mpg...

PMSL @ y0z Head. Wall. Bang. Head. Wall. Bang.

Spot on. Give that man a beer. ;-)

lol... you can see what mine where like in the top pic on page one. Filth. Its deffo going to be th bright ones - I feel they will have a broader appeal when I come to sell it too. All I need to do know is see how much of a discount Fred will give me...lol.

It might be, it might not , but its a decent piece of kit, and WAY cheaper. Looks good too imho.

Yup, just buy some small bore rubber hose from a DIY store....

I dont know mate. He bought the renault colour book home from work (he actually works for Land Rover, but has access to just about every single type/colour of paint you could imagine). It had 5 Gris Iceburg variants in it. We just put the car in sunlight and then later streetlight and lay the...

As a bove. Ive only done a quick dry run, but its seemingly a piece of piss. get youself a shorter aerial though - my spoiler just touched my aerial when the boot was fully open....

Looking good Yoz.:D

Does look very nice m8.... but its got to be silver for me I think.

there are five variants. a mate of mine, whos spraying my spoiler, has the renault colour swathes. Theres ALT 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Mine is 5 and just about the bluest of the lot. I dont know if its coincidence, but underneath my paint code MV640, there is a number 5.

Agreed. Especially on a silver car imho. TBH Im only getting them done because I spent ages cleaning my whole car and my mate said " Car looks nice dude, shame your wheels are stained though".:cry:

Sorry. Couldnt think of anywhere elso to put it. Guess the bin might have been a better bet.:oops:

They can be brighter silver... but its an extra £15 to £20 per wheel which makes it fairly expensive....

Oh. Hell. Yes. Like a f**king animal.

You shouldnt of bought a 182. Your a lazy bugger. Get the f**ker in third.;) If peak torque is at about 5250 rpm and peak power at 6500 rpm you have to be in the right gear. The Torque isnt bad for a 2.0 NA, but its never going to pull like a train from 3500 revs in fifth!!!

lol! :D

got maxogen?;) http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/lagerlout1/P1010250.jpg

Oh ducky. Im heart broken for you. I had a bunch of local f**k trumpets decide to use my car as the pavement. Scratches and dents everywhere. :cry:

Every time. Look ace with white wheels.

Eves picture above has convinced me. I now need to find out if they can be done brighter....

The Maxogen is designed for the Clio. That kit looks to me as though its sucking hot air straight from the radiator area. The maxogen draws air from behind the headlight area, and has a blanking plate included in the kit to shield the intake from the area where that kit is pointing. Just my...

For that money, Id get a Maxogen.

Mean as f**k dude...:D

They do tend to whine a little. Not sure if its a belt making the noise or something. My 172 has done it since new. i seem to notice it more when its cold for some reason...

lol... I even took the pics down a country lane for you. Those green things in the background are called trees, and believe or not that is a road beyond the M25. You smog breathing, shandy drinking, bum loving fool. [Edited by lagerlout1 on 25 June 2005 at 4:33pm]

Yup. Pretty cool. just needs a nice little Renaultsport badge at the bottom of the rev counter..

Mine idles at about 700rpm Im sure!>>!??
