I totally agree, I watch plenty of cars on eBay as my mate is into buying and selling. He won't touch anything with 100k plus as it seems to be a magical number which as soon as a car gets to, it is worth next to nothing. So asking top dollar for a car with such mileage will be difficult to...

I can't see why not. But I've been running external tyre pressure monitors on my 172 for 2 years and they are brillaint. Best 25 quiid iv3 spent in ages

Thanks mate that's brill. Anybody got one for sale?

Hi guys. I'm on the lookout for a cup spoiler to go on my monaco 172 but I've got a few questions. 1 - is a 172 cup spoiler exactly the same as a 182 cup packed spoiler in terms of wiring etc? 2 - is it just a case of bodging the wiring to get the brake lights to work? I read somewhere that...

I'd get a printout from a hunter allignment system and take it from there. I've tried many tyre places who use the laser systems and they could never get it right, 1 session on a hunter and all was good

Thought I'd update this thread. I decided against welding a straight tip on as I didn't want to loose my warranty on the exhaust or cut the bumper. So i bought a brand new centre section with silencer from ktec to replace my straight through pipe and I must say it now sounds awesome and not...

Do people even nick wheels anymore? I can't remember the last time I saw a car up on bricks. They just break into your house and take the lot these days I think

I'd agree with all the above apart from the mpg. My mpg definatly improved on motorway runs with the decat fitted

Never caused a flat spot in either my 182 or my 172, I just took it off in the end due to the horrific noise on the motorway. I think flat spots are more an issue decatting a 197 or 200.

The ktec 2.25 system is as good as the miltek imo

As above. Give the circlip a good tap in using a small socket the same size as the circlip and a hammer

Completely agreed. I goto Santa pod a few times each year and there's always some idiot who's spent a fortune on engine mods expecting a good time and end up with a slightly better time than stock. Drag racing is a mugs game for a road car.

Fork and a hammer did me fine, just be prepared to knacker the old ball joint boot.

I recon the clio will struggle for traction in a standing start drag so the times may not be as good as you would have thought.

Itl be a stripped out track car on the back of a trailer like the rest of em

Sorry I didn't explain that right. I meant in terms of performance, people say it's supposed to rev up more freely but it feels exactly the same. Weight saving, maybe beneficial but even so, I bet the condenser, pump and pipework dont weight more than 20kg.

I never used mine anyway. But to be honest, the car feels exactly the same as if did before so was a bit of a waste of time. But it only cost me 15 quid so I'm not too bothered

I use that method, have been for months and its been spot on. Parts numbers are in the thread in the guides section, I bought mine off a guy local who decided to fit a cup setup instead.

Hey guys. Has anybody added a centre section to a ktec stealth system? My exhaust is too loud so thought about adding a middle silencer to it, but ktec don't seem to sell the stealth any more so it doesn't look like I can just buy the sports centre section. Would it be simple enough to cut...

I don't think a standard Monaco would be worth 1400 let alone an accident repaired one unless it was absolutely mint and mega low miles. I've been watching prices of 172s on ebay for ages as I was considering getting shut of my monaco but unless it's a cup or minter they seem to struggle to...

There was a thread a few years back, I'm sure they were from Sweden or somewhere like that.

Aye that's the one. Great deal that mate

Possibly! With powerflex bushes in them?

Painted calipers to match the eibatch sportlines. Now the wishbones look out of place!

Hi guys. Can the aux belt tensioner be bought separately? I'm running a wrc air con delete and my belts are due in July but it seems daft to buy a full aux belt kit when all I will need from it is the tensioner, as the belt and idler pulley are different. Europarts list it for around £250...

Kent

A job like that would have come with an invoice, any idiot can tick a box in a service book. It won't have been done. Looking at around 500 give it take a few quid..

No

Oops, I think the actual sensor is the same so you will just have to swap the plugs over. Autodoc do do the other side though. Has anybody actually contacted dacia with a parts enquiry? I thought parts had to be stocked for 10 years.

Got mine from auto Doc. They have about 5 different websites all with a different name. This is the one I ordered. https://m.onlinecarparts.co.uk/triscan-7659429.html
