would just need to know the thread size and length it would need to be to reach beyond the ph1 and ph2 bumpers. then a ring at the end, but any engineering company could work that last bit out. take the standard tow eye and a picture of what you want, if you were to have 10 made it would be a...

any engineering company could make a tow eye to fit the original hole, the more you get the cheaper it would be. could get one near to exact copy of the R-sport version. i could of gone down that route but i had no problem with drilling out the hole and fitting an OMP theres pics and a...

or DIY for £13 with a OMP tow eye and 13mm drill. piece of piss but does mean you cant take it out ever again as you'l have no thread for a standard tow eye. theres a thread in the 'guides' section

bizare, that yellow teg does nothing for me at all :s

its between the 2 seats where they fold in the middle, royal pain in the chuff to get out - mine was anyway...

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction i'll get rid of it once buying some heat shield for the manifold, have run out of bucks this week. im not too fussed with them not matching, dont see it when im driving :P plus mine is 2 years newer than the passenger seat

Re: someph-ing different........... never been toooo keen on white rims on silver clios but they dont look bad at all. as you said anyway, theyre track/winter wheels so who gives a monkeys :P can guarentee they'll look better than mine will do shortly lol

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction paint was completed today, good enough for the back of a play car so im happy got a bit carried away today,started the fitting of the 2nd cobra seat, my drivers seat in a Monza S, whereas the passenger is Monza 2. the only really obvious difference is the...

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction i know mate, was looking at it a moment ago. how much of a b**ch is it to get out, and can it stay out without something else in its place? temporary repair has been cleaned up, will make sure it passes through emisions at MOT time, if it does then all will...

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction yours, on the other hand, is going to look beautiful. im undecided on what to do in the front, think its going to stay as it is just with the 2nd bucket seat. for the next 2 weeks or so, i'll be driving it as a single seater cup racer lol

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction due to the silver dust going everywhere i masked up the rear a bit more, just to save taking it off the rear bumper if i ever wash the car again:quiet: after the first spray over... while i waited for that to dry off a bit, started on the fitting...

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction after buying the right colour mixed paints and primers and all that b****cks, i realised if i was spending that much on doing it, i may as well do it properly. tonight the front 2 seatbelts came out for good, as did the plastic trim above the rear windows...

ikea make sequential shifters? might pop down to bristol and pick one up. mate that car looks good, i was always worried about the rust so never went in that direction :dapprove:

pmsl, saw the other one too, might need a name change cars looking tip top, like it alot

thats all ive got at the moment im afraid (the ones in my clio thread) i may be able to take some more sometime

i can only assume that those bars are bolted to the floor pan through the cars old seat fixing holes, the seat mounts are then bolted to these and then the seat bolted to the mounts. i cant be of much more use really im afraid, i just bolted my side mounts straight on to the car floor :P

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction yours is coming along pretty well too ph-reebone:) they're AST topmounts, adjustable camber and caster and very beautiful. £140 from powerstation, unless you get in on a group buy for £110

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction had a choice between silver and grey, took the grey but ended up being too common. kinda wish id taken the silver one now :P wont be the last skyline i have luminous orange is going to be the colour i go for, but have also been thinking orange one side...

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction righteo then, been a while since ive touched the car really but came back from the alps and got busy in the back. I borrowed burps heat gun and started on the s**te tar in the back half of the car, sounds soooo much nicer to drive now. havent been on the...
