Not sure about kit wise, But 17s will go on no probs

When I had my old 1.2 16v (y-reg) I had 17s on it with a 60mm drop and that was fine, But when I went to R-tec to have fitted they said that 19s would be fine with NO arch work, Just said it would probably rub if I had people in the back.

I think it has got be to be PE for the price, Just need to find out how much for group buy, Anyone offering to ring them then!

I cant see it on there mate, they do one for mk1 16v which is £151?

Are you talking about mk1 and mk2 172s I did specifically say to them it was a mk1 172 and he said the readings they got were from a few clio mk1 172s not the mk2 172s He was saying they get good results from the mk1 but sure it would be good for mk2 aswell

I am up for that, When do you want to do it! They said they are fully booked for Satudays for the next three weeks, One of us would have to ring and see if they would do it cheaper though, as they may well not

Do you mean Power Engineering or GDI

I m sure you can, You ca split the cigarette Lighter cable in two thing one is positive and one is negative, Seem to remember doing on my mates VTS with his Video machine power lead. Connected the positive to the Remote though not an interior light.

Mate, Just rang Andy - Nice Bloke! It is basically a Piggy Back system. Which they program through the lambda, Did one on a mk1 172 with cams gave them an extra 25bhp.But dont want cams yet bit expensive.Price was £550-600 for chip or £1500 Chip and cams.Bit too Pricey for me I think, May...

No what is GDI?

Well the bloke (james) said that they plug the laptop into my current ECU which has all the details of my IK and zorst etc and then reprogram my current one, Dont think it is on Rolling road at the time though. Will it still increase my Limiter position. If this aint good, can you advice on...

Just rung them, Said that it is very very very unlikely that it can be wiped from the memory, He also there is a noticable difference in Torque and top end so, I would notice if it did get wiped and they would just flash it back on again....

mmm so you think this is a better option than the Hill Power ECU. They have a rolling road but costs £45 to do a power test. He said that the 172 takes well to this remap though and they havent had less than 12bhp increase on any one they have done. Also he said it would take into account...

I have just spoken to the guy there and he said they can remap my current ECU and it wil give me 12-15bhp costs £250 +vat = £293.75. Suppose advantage is that I would get the irratic idle problem for 1. Views please. Group n Hill Power is £252 inc VAT for us.

make check out http://www.rochfordtyres.co.ukwww.rochfordtyres.co.uk they are v cheap.

Ah, Think I am going before then. I am going with my dad and the Aston Martin Owners club, hehe. He has the last Aston Martin V8 Vantage with X pack made by AM before they were bought out by Ford. My Brother bought it from a museum and sold it to my Dad. Very nice car!! Was going to take my...

Maybe I should go for the Hill Power ECU instead?

Oh when are you going to curborough, Im going soon, not sure of exact date yet! Juyst spoke to BBPerformance they said it would be £264 inc Vat Fully Fitted

Mate, I may hold you to that! Then can order it from K-tec which is cheaper anyway.

lol, you were lucky then. Cant believe they had the balls to fix that V6 on the forecourt, I am going to take that picture in with me and see what they will do on the price of that V6 which is up for 24k at the mo. Wander whos that Black 182 is behind it?

Mate I have tried contacting them seem a bit bad at customer service. Cant even get a price (fitted) from them. How much was yours Fitted if you dont mind?

I have decided that I want one, But need someone else to fit it, Does anyone know where the closest place would be to me, I live in Central London, R-Tec is usually the Closest but they want £195 for the Quickshift and £100 to fit it, seems a bit over the top to me.

Tonbridge are v god. I travel down from London to use them, never had any probs with Customer Service, Not to good at finding faults though, But once they know what it is they will sought it quickly

Matey, Looking for something aftermarket like the K-tec rear valance but would like to see other options first

Anyone got any advise on what rear bumper or valance to get for a mk1 172, Am thinking about getting one, but the choice is pretty limited.

Sounds like I shal just be paying them to do it if I need to, Will check today and give it all a good greasing

Trouble is mate that I live in Westminster and have to park on a main road so cant really do much myself :( Will give it a grease and see if not will get them to put a new one in. Cheers matey

Do you know how much it would be to get renault to change the cable?

Mine seems to happen if I really rag the car or if it is really hot from sitting in traffic ( which happens alot in Westminster) and then dont drive it for a few days

Should I put a bit of WD40 on the bit which moves in the engine bay (no idea what it is called). It is a like a little arm bit with the accelerator cable going through the top of it
