To be fair i can see Dave's point, iv driven plenty of Ed30's and 3 remapped ones (circa 300 bhp) and in a straight line is fine, but when you start to push on it really is too much power for the chassis. No doubt with better suspension, better ARB's better tyres will help, but thats just part...

Ph1's are better in every way possible, everyone knows it, and if they say otherwise then they are in denial.

Lol fair play mate! Glad its still doing you well :) I worked it out at the time, it used to hit 48mpg quite easily I get about 75ish miles to a tenner in the 172

More details!

As yours is a ph1, the speedo read is taken from a sensor in the box. Is the car standard? Does it have bigger wheels/different sized tyres?

Iv done mine a slightly darker shade of silver (about to be redone again)

Shock needs replacing, asap by the look of it, mine were about 44 quid each

So your saying he got a 100% power increase from a straight through exhaust, a drilled out carb, and a PC fan :S Im in the wrong game

Is it me or was that a really bad budget wooden Santa Pod?

My old hybrid used to do 100 miles to a tenner and ran 13.8 quarters. Why the f**k did i sell it :(

ah ok cheers Danny

Yes mate there is another, more of a support, it goes btween the gearbox and the subframe, a rubber block

I wouldnt let it put you off mate,its only one batch. which happens in life and they are surviving my driving, which is recommendation! lol It depends on the car i personally think, some have the standard mounts and they have lasted fine, me for example have been through 3 sets of new mounts...

Not suprised, the Twingo is based on the Clio chassis, and with Renaultsports magic on it its always going to be good :)

Will you really save that much mate?

its not just weight and engine size, its to do with a lot of other factors, including how efficient the fuel management system is etc

Looks like its a little beast mate, bring it down Combe next month for the Action Day!

Lol long old trip mate! Looks like you had fun, how long did it take each way?

Im very tempted with bodies, what are kits going for these days? Fitting il do myself

I hope you showed that Elise who's boss! Lol

Thing is, i can see why your saying it, i can imagine some little scrote revving the arse off it in the workshop to here what it sounds like, but then i think ,no matter what they do with it, it wont be any worse than it gets from me lol

Glad to see its staying in the club :D

Yeah yeah rub it in why dont ya! I remember the first time i drove yours, first 3 times i used the brakes i locked them up, then when i got it right i hit my head on the front of the roll cage lol

So am i, im fairly heavy on my brakes, but they have loads left still!

I meant with me ;)

Yup!

A combination of scandinavian flick, lift off and handbrake. Very good driving, though on some points steering was quite frantic. Most well handing FWD cars you can do this with, really good fun (Awaits the 'its crap because its not RWD' brigade)

Re: K-tec Gearbox Mount Problem Mines coming off the car very soon so il grab some pictures mate, hopefully this weekend

Mintex 1144's mate, have always found them to be very good, only a tint bit of fade after about 15 hard laps of Combe, but never very bad, just the pedal going a bit, still bite very well.

My daughter is 3 months old now, and getting her and the pushchair in the car isnt a problem, but there are other issues: With the pushchair and her bag in the back there isnt any room for anything else If you go shopping the shopping will mostly have to be on the back seat With the car...
