I've got a bit of a problem with my 172 that has been bothering me for ages now. When I bought it the steering wheel wasnt straight (when the wheels are). It wasnt a mint car by any means and the amount I paid for it, i was happy just to get new tyres on it and get it tracked properly then. I...

Love the toys R us steering wheel

they normally do them up to 100NM and your right, No1 is able to acheieve that amount of torque with renault tools at the side of the road. You need a socket (19mm iirc?) and a socket wrench and a long metal tube to slot over it to gain leverage. Or if your feeling a little flusher, go for a...

SMI? Im not sure I quite get the question tbh

I like it. But I couldnt live without a real gearbox

If it's one of the pulleys that is showing then there is an old trick with a screw driver to identify it. Using a very very long screwdriver touch the tip on the stationary axle of the suspected pulley and press the handle into your ear. It's like a stethoscope edit: obviously the engine needs...

get a trolley jack and a peice of wood holding up the sump properly and work carefully and keep an eye on it!

I like that. still no sign of the 172 stuff tho

Im almost sure the 5 GTT engine is the messiest engine in the world

DISC FAIL

pics of said quick car?

not a bad lil chop that !

surely it's a simple bit of maths with the PCD of the caliper bolts and the disc diameter difference and robert is your fathers brother. Get on it mate. Make yourself a couple o bob ;)

elegant solution, keeps it simple.

my Idea was to buy some willwoods or something and then get a bracket fabricated for those. You could get a few brackets made and sell em on here.

wine noises are generally tensioners or pulleys. Who did your belts. Did they over tension anything?

Blingin neons? ;)

ah now I really really want to know

what's your switch for mate? :)

it's no 205 T16 though is it ;)

does the yozza enlarged one require Ph1 cables or can it be done FBW?

As said, it really needs to be done with an S3 and a 1.8 20v engine. It's that much work that you shouldnt even consider it unless you can do all the work yourself. The labour costs would really really mount up and you would spend a while searching for someone to do it as there is a lot of...

VR6 implies it's not a straight six...... is it?

you strike me as a bit wierd. But yes they will. Unlucky for altering the rest of CS to that little bargain find. Happy wheel hunting

pics of whole car required!

I want: Black on white

greeny's car is awesome

28 bids up to almost £7k!!!

your dogbone mount sounds a bit farked too mate.

IMO forget the carbs. Not great for the cold morning starts and you will use all the fuel in the world and it'll still be difficult to get right. DEFO agree with mini valver, bike carbs are for the farking win. and whats more is the above manifold is the absolute sale of the century
