    Most satisfying moment in your clio?

    172 cup/type r/impreza turbo

    CUP/CTR then imo. When i'm changing mine, i'll either get a (slower ;) ) 182 as they are newer, or a facelift CTR in black or grey ;) You wont get an induction 'roar' on any turbo car, as its forced induction. You will get a little 'flutter' on throttle lift off... this will be the...

    172 cup/type r/impreza turbo

    yes, thats true of any turbo car :), but maybe he doesnt want to mod it, and if thats the case i'd go for a CUP/CTR. If its a UK wrx or classic, you'll be dissapointed, heavy, slow (for what they are) and thirsty etc

    172 cup/type r/impreza turbo

    My mate bought a scoob (import WRX) comming from a cammed vts saxo, sold it with two months of it being on the road. Said it was boring to drive, and not as chuckable. Straight line speed aint everything, and a cup will be pretty even with all uk 208-218 bhp imprezas......

    wont be much to sort imo, wack a new set of ebaich pro lines (£140)+ dampers (£200) on to sharpen up the handling, new rear wheel bearing £30 ish..... plus fitting (they are part of the rear disk, so will need pressing out) job done?

    Getting my strut brace fitted

    if your fitting nuts and bolts mind, the front shocks will need to be dropped to gain access......

    Cup handling

    what sort of mileage is it on? dampers and springs will always lose their effectiveness (sp) over the years. Might be time for H&R's like you say, but even a new set of dampers and some ebaich prolines will do wonders (fubar did this)

    Checking engine mounts

    1. Might be the other wheel bearing ;) . Mine have been fine, had the discs and bearings replaced @45 thou, but i'm on 68k now and these are ok 2. Clutches are stiff lol, took a good month to get used to mine, very off/on 3. Gear shift may be improved with a gearbox oil change imo, mine is ok 4...

    182 Bonnet not opening

    cut grill for you then!!! yeah its not unheard of, the only way it can be opened is by hacking the black grill bit open, and accessing the cath that way :(

    Milltek is on

    nice, there is a lack of good systems for the 172 imo :( i got a rear mount (172 mind) for around £18... (the square one)

    Do 172 Cups have headlamp washers ?

    recaros are worth it though ;) any excuse lol

    Do 172 Cups have headlamp washers ?

    not worth it, plus the standad lights are better imo, remember that xenons are dipped beam only. the lamp units are plug and play mind.

    Ph1 172 (as requested)

    weapon, love this car. I had the sportlines on mine too, the ride was awsome, just didnt drop it enough looks wise. I have H&R's now, its low, but it does lose the fine handling the sportlines give on the b road hack :( should raise mine lol
