Yeah it's quite tricky Dave. You need to jack the car up, so you undo the 4 bolts holding the subframes in place, one was a right b**ch to remove :dapprove: But it didn't take that long, bar the one stubborn bolt.

Yeah whenever matey. Yes Mark, hopefully have it all sorted in the next few days. Then I'll be able to offer some sound advice..lol Yes Olly, getting there now :approve:

Around the £50-55 mark to fill up. I am getting around 29-30mpg ATM.

No way! lol I'll have to borrow Tim's Jack again this week. I should have the passenger Recaro out soon, if you've got the funds for them ;)

No chance without a jack :dapprove:. I need to get my arse back to Machine Mart and buy that low entry jack ASAP TBH. Oh I see mate ;)

Double post :dapprove:

Good stuff :approve: ummmm Interesting.....

Cheers Nick :) If I can't sort it, I'll have to pop up and see you and Mike ;)

Yes Nick it does slant to one side mate. My Dad did suggest adjusting the sidemount holes each side earlier, so they sit level. I'll hopefully have time tomorrow to have another look at it whist it's still daylight.

It wasn't that warm today, to make any difference.

Yeah 'proper' buckets are great fella :cool: I think I am going to order a Sabelt cheap 4 point jobbie tonight, so that I can drive the bloody thing soonish! Thanks for the pics Tim. *****Todays Progress***** I have removed all of the interior carpet now, and a load more tar patches (I now...

Could I just drill through the floor pan, and fix the side mounts then?

I used to. Mel won't drive the 172 now, she says it's way too noisy and uncomfortable now :approve:

Cheers Tim. I'm sure I'll get used to it, I do like my seat in a granny driving position :o

Good stuff. It's not ideally, but It'll do for the time being. I also need to get used to sitting a bit further away from the pedals ;)

I pay £10 a tyre (cash)

Yes mate, thanks a lot for all your help though fella. I think I am going to pop over to Screwfix later, and buy some more M8 washers and give it another go. Godspeed also had problems with his OMP subframes, and that they were out by quite a bit too...

Me likes!

^^^I can't believe you stole my 'Genuine' cup racer tow eye ;):( Big thanks for giving up your saturday afternoon Tim, Chris to work on the rattle box :approve: Seat is now in but not sitting level, as the OMP subframe doesn't really seem fit for purpose. I'll buy some more washers, to try...

^^^This.

Yes Dave I have had a lot of interest in the Recaro trendlines. If only everything was a easy to sell as them and trophy turinis! I will miss the trendlines mind :( What was wrong with the Recaro PP's mate?

Nope. All of my modifications have improved my 172 IMO.

Wonky stripped bandit (Chris) has first dibs, and about 5/6 other peeps have also PM'd me about buying them! lol Mark.. Remember: ''It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is permission'' ;)

Thirsty car!

haha :cool:

Some of Tom's cup here.. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?559823-White-turini-takeover!-pic-heavy.&highlight=White+turinis+tak

I got my decat from K-tec.

Looks good!

Do it! I de-catted and stripped mine not long ago, the best mod/s I've done the car feels a lot quicker now!

Depends on who you know ;)
