thing is though i dont think the standard system is that restrictive..... look at all the people on here who've had replacement exhausts.... had it rolling roaded before and after, and actually lost power granted its made from kitkat wrappers, but for the harmonics of the engine etc its good imo.

inferno 182, going past the station, i was waiting for my dominos pizza yummy :cool:

i'd deffo have another, no major problems with mine! Black gold, or inferno 182 next

i was under the impression that you could only get 172/182 o.e exhausts through renult themselves?

bumpy, lets get this going

ah, might have been the pro i meant, i had them, and the car didnt even look lowered, but the handling was spot on.

Re: Sooooo f**king angry with mytyres.com hmmmm well you snooze , you lose? not as if they were ordered, then half way through they bumped up the price?

mmmmm p**n! love that

eibach sportilines will do you nicley, hardly any drop, but a quality spring, and will tighten the handling up nicely

62 for mine, no problemo

my car was fine untill it had the cambelt done last year. (drivers side moun needs to come off/apart) So got my mate who works for renault to adjust the drivers mount as said above, and press in the ktec bushes, i get NO knocking at all, and it gets raped pretty much daily

good choice, look on the ktec website, i'd also reccomend some bilstien shocks too, not that pricey either. be well sorted then http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2042

are you changine the dog bone due to the knocking/banging in 1st? imo you are better adjusting the drivers side mount, slacken it off, 'pull' the engine as far forward as you can, then whilst the engine is still in this position, re-do up the mount, that should work

missfire could be due to the fuel leak maybe? tappy engine imo would be the injectors, or charcoal cannister, mine is stupid loud, and low speeds

well ive have the ktec ones. Been fitted for over a year, and my car has done 62 thou, no problems, a little vibration on idle though

i'd buy it, it should still have renault warranty :)

what you do with seatbelts etc? i dont see no harnesses?

yes it is on H&Rs, i meant in standard set up, cups seem to look higher than standard 172's

hhmmmm just thought, my springs had little plastic rings to put inbetween the spring and platform

eibach sportlines, nicley tightens it up

platforms wound down fully at the back? ie, not loose rattling around? or another favourite.... the boot lock??!!

:o

anybody know the fella with this car? like to know the measurements :)

shouldn't have any rattling, you should have a rubber 'cushion' on the car side of where the spring mounts. If your running coilovers, the bottom of the springs just sit on the adjusters

me too, mine looks 4x4 in comparision :dapprove:

try it down a b road, giving it some beans.... I very nearly sold my car a couple of months ago, it all went back to standard. The O.E set up was an eye opener (sp).... alot less fuss, and imo covered more ground quicker. Food for thought. raising mine

lol ssshhhhh........ dont let fred see this ;)

i'd dissconnect the battery too... (seatbelt pre-tensioners) Bolts are at underneath the car. Two rubber caps nearest the sills (deep 13mm socket needed) and the other two are under the exhaust heat sheild near the handbrake assembly repeat for both sides

^ exactly, the pistons have less length to travel, and this results in the car being thrown about alot more.

i've been thinking the same, mine is super low.... fine around town and looks the danglies!!BUT, throw it down a bumpy back lane, and imo the standard setup is better. Up she goes this weekend i think!!!!
