    172 rear discs from renault cost?

    I dunno if GSF carry them in stock as standard but they claim free postage i.e. hide it in the price so it was cheap enough. Where is the local GSF, southside somewhere? I use Eurocarparts more cause its handier

    whos had their 172/182 from new?

    too much, if the cars been used as intended in the first 3 years then warranty issues will have happened in this time. After the 3 years are up, it'll be mainly wear and tear items which the warranty won't cover. That's my way of thinking anyway...

    Fitting a blueflame decat

    surely the 2 lambdas are to compare gases before and after the cat, hence one lambda won't be moved and the other will get screwed into this. I've never attempted to fit it.

    Glasgow mini mini meet (no minis)

    A mini meet of minute proportions today to check over Frasers Cup, a few pics: Guess who was at FCS: 2 other cups were in the same carpark, common as clits!

    Fitting a blueflame decat

    its got a thread on it for the lambda, does the other one not screw in on the downpipe or on the exhaust itself?

    Issues RE offset??

    http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=199474&highlight=oz+et37+182 check that out, machined the wheels to a 41mm offset due to fitment issues of et37. Im not sure if this is a problem at standard ride height, its been discussed before but I cant remember
  21. rory182

    Issues RE offset??

    ph 2 172 and 182 are different though, different offsets as standard and different track, hubs etc so may be slight differences in clearance.

    Best Picture Of FCS 07

    If that was a red mk2 v6 then it'd be even better... 197 aint quite turbo 2's successor. That turbo2 was awesome

    182 de-cat?

    if you want to keep your cat in good condition for future MOTs yeah. If you plan to remap it with other mods, yeah if not, nope.
  24. rory182

    Issues RE offset??

    shouldnt cause any issues at standard height. May depend on the wheel design too re. clearance when lowered? I dont think there'd be any issues on a 30mm drop - I'm pretty sure its been done many times over

    182 de-cat?

    2 bolts on the 182, on a straight section of exhaust much easier than on a 172 where the cat is on the down pipe. illegal, should free up some power, not much louder. gdi, yozzasport, blueflame

    bonnet release cable housing

    Help needed!! Edde, yoz etc...

    that looks more like a gaitor than a pipe, maybe a cable housing or something? headlight adjusters or something simple like that?

    Bike rack & my V6

    roofrack is the preferred option, make sure to protect the roof where the kit mounts to prevent scratching. A thule kit as Dave mentioned would suit, same roof dimensions as a normal clio 98 - on. The spoiler will get in the way of a lot of bootracks but you can get adapters which look like...
