    Low Subframes For Standard Seats?

    that what I was saying no need for the cross members though. however its not going to lower you much plus you want some thick metal to make those runners out of realy so not huge gains.

    Cambelt Change

    The Suburu was designed for a 2.0 engine at front and is easy to change. 5.1 hours work and £140 for the cambelt and aux belt kitin parts alone. Don't forget unless a garage has the tools and done the job before they are likly to mess it up it happens a lot.

    Tracked 172 Cups - what breaks?!

    Crash damage on Cups is likly. Engine are solid realy no worries there. General electric can be a problem. Not much is weak though.

    Auto Box Conversion

    Its only cheaper if you DIY'd it and you knew enough not to even ask this question. There are a few on the forum who could "do" the work none who would for any cheap price though.

    Standard or sports cat

    Faulty second lambeda sensor I'd recon its quite common. For a 172 I'd go for a deact/sports cat the 182 isn't that essential as stock quite good. However often there cheaper. Personaly I'd always go for a a sports cat so no need to change it over at MOT time.
