wheres the best/cheapest place to get rear shocks for the 172? Not paying reno prices cus im a stingy b*****d and cant afford anything better at the moment.
was sitting behind a 172 earlier, i know it wont appeal to many people but ive removed my wiper motor and just plugged the hole with a halfords bung. the black plastic bit on the ph1, is it possible to have it made in carbon but without the hole? like the cup racer ones

looking good jay, im just scrared now how fast its going to be compared to mine. think i'll have to do a bank job and get ITB's or something lol
great pics schweppy, wish id come along but gotta start saving. got new brakes in the week which helped the cashpot dwindle.
those ones with the light are great, made i chuckle!!!
Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread
i wonder just how many cambelts are fitted incorrectly....
its 10kg's forwards of the front wheels too so should make a healthy difference. not bad for a few hours graft
is it a PH1 or PH2 bonnet. im not sure about the PH2 clios but on the PH1's theres a normal steel bonnet and some have an Aluminium bonnet. mine's ally, mums is steel lol. but dont know the weight of either sorry
at the prices your suggesting i'd take a fair amount of it over time. im going for a silver 172 with black everything else so carbon side strips etc would look hot
Re: someph-ing different...........
i hack sawed my rear wiper off, never use it and hate it when the fronts are on and you put it in reverse and it automatically wipes the back window. cheaper than repair it and 1 less thing to fail an MOT lol
id like to make the trip over there but think my wheel bearing wont like me much for it and not replacing it until tuesday.
im looking at the classes and your in the Club Class right? will you be competing time wise the forced induction cars too or just the N/A?
even if its just the N/A you...
let you in on the Over part of the dual carriage way this morning, you came from the Ross/Forest area and had a baby seat.
Red trophy with the usual stuff, anyone here?
ive always left my cars/van in gear, always is 1st as well. never had a problem but i know if its in 4th or 5th it'l move on a hill.
so, nouts wrong with your clutch or g'box :)

mmmmmm sexual harrassment rimmage. i thourght about painting my calipers today but as im going for a stealthy look, black isnt going to look quite so 'in ya face'. but im liking the yellow.
where my wheels are on and off the black paint is getting scratched...
was driving around the back streets in maidenhead today and there was a Mk1 on back on a recovery truck, looked like it was permenantly parked there. black wheels too, anyone on here?
