ur car looks the nuts mike - have been back to this thread about 5 times now to look at it!

nice 1 mike - tryin to decide between seats or a steering wheel - i know they are a lot different in price but I can only afford to do one of them at the mo - think it will be the steering wheel. did you get your resistor from maplin? what do you think of these seats...

r u 100% sure as I dont want to get a black eye from my airbag while trying to take it out

if i disconnect the battery then after an hour or so disconnect the steering wheel airbag and fit a resistor will the SERV light still come on when the battery is reconnected as there has been a break in the system?

my rear discs go rusty as fuk after washing - i can leave the car for a few days then before driving and any rust is gone from my discs within a couple of miles - i would say you have a problem mate. although mine is a full fat 172 not a cup but wwould have thought they would be the same set up

did the steering wheel come with the relevant resistor? if not what resistor do you need and where do you get them from?

that steering wheel is smart as f*k - how easy was it to fit - have you managed to stop the air bag light coming on?

nice - good work - must be fookin loud

like the vvti badges but definately preffered the wheels in gun metal. one of the nicest on here before the sunflower treatment!

gordon - the mk2 172 wheel is 16 inch - the mk1 is 15inch.

In kilos please.........

If I remove the front seats of my 172 is the airbag warning light going to stay on constantly - is there a way around this if so? also how do you remove the seat without the airbag exploding - do you simply detach the plugs underneath the seats?

k-tec now are selling stiffer versions of these bushes - had mine fiyyed - would say the same as omar - bit of vibration at idle but gear knob now stays pretty still when lifting off. Not sure if it has solved the knocking sound when wheel spinning yet.

huryy up and do the 172 kit - please!

i just bought an alpine set up - its great for playing MP3 but if you have bought an ipod video like me then its crap - you cannot get the sound from any films through the stereo - its cost me about £150 including fitting to get it all sorted when all i needed was a AI Net to Head phone jack for...

bargain - go for it - with the k&n as well it will sound wicked

That price from Gravells is wicked - they charged me £350 to replace a driveshaft on my old 5 Turbo about 5 years ago - I thought that was steep

i used a tom tom go in mine and had a nightmare - over entire journey of about 400 miles had signal about 20% of the time. In my sisters mini it works perfectly all the time so the windscreen definately makes a difference

rentech it is then!

I GET THE SAME RATTLE LEE - have you suused it out?

Took my car in to renault today - bad whinning noise coming from the alternator - anyway renault agreed and rung me to advise they where going to swap the alternator for a new one. They then rang me back to say they had stripped my car down and did not have a new one in stock! new one arriving...

that plate is the b****cks - well impressed

mmm - how much for just the manifold work ben

was that £500 + vat including the inlet manifold mod?

nice - keep us informed

mines going into rentech in a couple of weeks - Mike said he will fit the poly bushed that k-tec sell which hopefully should sort it

Andy think I will wait and get the brembo fast road discs and pads that you and yozza recommended - hell of a lot cheaper and probably good enough for what I need.

fair enough stu - i have not heard of that make before - if they are that good then fair enough - just would have expected more for the money. I take it these are better quality than Hi-Spec then? where did you just get the bells from?

how is it cheap??

any chance of a discounted group buy maybe??
