My mate whos into all this stuff and does reviews was saying wait a bit for the light version or something due out in a few month it will be even better.

Depends they last longer than 1782 ones usually but 3 years /60k assuming hard driving would be a good rough adverage.

Z cars are one company who can help there alos a Renaulkt tunner who have done this tyre of conversion. It wouldn't be that bad to diy so long as you are mchanically enough minded getting it to handle would be the challenge.

For qualifying they used to get upto 1500hp from what I can remember. Superchargers require hp to run them since they run off the crank, turbos don't since they use the exhaust gasses.

Continious could well be the bearing. Diff might be going in the box there a few potention problems. Particualy if the 172 is a crash repair.

Yep sorry should have said would have to be a Mk2 phase 2 172.

New there only £50+vat or so there the same as the 172 and 182 of all versions. Part numbers 172 WING LHF 77 01 472 417 £50.00 172 WING RHF 77 01 472 418 £50.00 Try Matt though on 01254 386661 he has a few sets in stock usually.

Your right 1.6 were very rare they made less than they did of the 172 and 182's Same suspension on the 1.2 as the 1.6 weighting is different due to setup but thats easy to adjust. Suspenion is soft on the 1.2 but nothing a set of aftermarket setup won't make better than any stock 172 or...

Its Yozzas pocket so only he should remark on pocket chnage shouldn't he? Easy to guess how much you'll spend its exactly the same amount as the cars are worth when they drive in the entarence. If you want I'll have the car trailer brought to the track so you can tow one of them home. I'm...

You could have least washed the car to take the photoes.

I wonder more how long he'll own it/tuner it more though? He seems to go throught cars alsmost as quick as admits.

Its easy to do £10 or so for a new one I've the part number somwhere the leather look one from the 172 will also fit its a bit more expensive though. To swop it pull the old up inside out them cut the old plastic clip off and pull it off the gearstick. Then put the new one inside out as such...

Yep they have a nominated garage.

TDC sensor is on the fly wheel area ie down by where the engine and the box meat. PM me your address and I'll sned you the file showing where bits like this are.

Get it prefeshionally camber etc adjusted and corner weighted but thats expensive. Check the thinkness of the anti roll bar check its not rusted and protect everything. If you've a 1.8 or WIllioams I'd also say if you want to spend even more money get a new Williams subframe its thicker so...

Sorry didn't mean to sounds like your stupid. Just saying most people don't do it. It won't make a whole load of difference it will make it better though just don't expect a VAG like change.

All 172 are injected. 5-40 is a popular spec but 10-40 can be used so long as temsp don't drop below -15 oC

They don't anyway. Blip the throttle on the down shift.

I think they do.

Its cheaper from Nissan for exactly the same part from meory by a quid or so.

Chnage all of them the bushes in the suspension arm the ARB bar ones the ball joints top mounts and track rod ends.

£40 or so from Demon Tweeks. There no point chnaging it till you get to 70k or so minimum.

Ha ha pit lane timing. Anyway its easy to forget about corners Fred and Yozza do. Least when I forget about corners it just makes me look stupid when Fred and Yoz do it costs them a fortune.

I'd get Royal purple and forget about the cost Millers is almost as good but not quite as good.

Nope, remove the wheel then at the bottom of the hub there a bolt which rns front to back on the car take this out the undo the two bolts which hold the ball joint to the suspension arm (17mm bolt and 16mm nut from memory) then take the old hub off and put the new one in and tigthen the botls up...

Under 5 liters 3.5 I think from memory. I'm going to use Miller 75/90 I've used it before and it was better then gaain Renault boxes aren't good anyway. ALso I've got some. If I didn't have it I'd go for the royal purple but its £50 or so.

Sounds good its not difficult to do it yourself only three bolts you need to undo assuming its not chuck solid. Tracking shound't need doing but worht checking for £20 to fit it I'd do it myself.

Its a 2.0liter engine engine from the WIlliams and the same bottom end as the Megan 2.0 as well

Err I don't see how they'd rub on the axle I take it you mean the arch liners?

There no Cup spec 197 yet. The cars put on weight yes but quicker round race tracks. The CUp most people talk about is the proper race car.
