as said takes a bit of getting used to where the power is, dont floor it at 3k when rolling, drop a gear. Not a lot in it between a DC2 and these. Mine made 179brake which is 182ps but rr's are nonsense anyway.

02 plate mk2 172 heading towards Ibrox over the motorway, I was heading the opposite direction both got stuck at lights. Saw you looking over. This was on Sunday bout 12.30 or so.

No sh1t sherlock, you wanna tell Renault or shall I? lol

very cool, hats off to you for taking the time and investing the money. Someone was doing a white 182 at one point weren't they? This is the only car so far on my list to see at FCS

yeah cup has a smaller alternator, no air con as mentioned so an easier job.

aftermarket exhaust also helps free up some low end torque I find allowing me to use 2nd where I would previously have to use 1st (i.e. crawling traffic!)

5k kick rules, the whole thing equates to good fuel economy at low revs and good fun at high revs! Can't fault my brakes, even managed to lock up briefly from 90mph lol doh cars not good under braking but the brakes are good they stop you very effectively. The 182 can out stop some supercars...

i was quoted 2.1 hours labour, getting mine done tomorrow as part of my 36k service. they wanted £150 extra for the belt

you know how many people have asked me for tickets so far?! lol I don't think we have any spare, if we did my boss would prob show up.

drivers in Glasgow fitted mine for me, did a good job. "bought" it elsewhere

ktec stealth is popular on 172s or prospeed

I hope so! lol 10's of thousands of people will pass through id think so its a lot of potential trade

lol was thinking the same, does it jingle enough to hide the rattles?

Was waiting for that lol and still time to take a pic... mines seen 145 on the guage without being flat out, autobahns are great.

mines 3 years old, its starting to cost a little bit due to mileage. But i justify keeping it in that its had no major problems, its been mine since new. And if I swap for an older car it will more regularly cost me to keep it running well as things like bushes etc will need replacing. go for...

its useless really, lets you know when you've missed the optimum gear change - great

Anyone going along? I'll be manning the Scottoiler stand over Saturday and Sunday

wheel shaking might be a bearing or wheel balance is more likely than alighment IMO.

not really anything major wrong with it, if you were having problems with electrics or things which you cant quite put your finger on fair enough... all wear and tear items to be honest! I don't hate my car, I hate when things happen at the same time e.g. tax, new tyres, mot, 36k service and...

£99 bought me a garmin i3, got one for my dad for £65 off ebay. Only downside is lack of touch screen, so I'd go for a Garmin with touchscreen.

Matt Black had the 1.8T and when tuned significantly it wasnt the best chassis for it due I think to driveshaft lengths being uneven and basically twisting the car. But thats when pushing 400brake with loads of torque etc. a 2.0 16v clio engine will be a much more straight forward conversion...

The cars not as quick as you imagined: maybe just not used to the 5k kick and waiting for 7k to change gear (if you want to go quickly that is)? When I first got mine a mk2 golf gti owned me cause I wasn't used to where the power band was etc. ITG gets my vote

you're fcuked Kenny! Medium is slightly too small, Large is slightly too big.... fcuked! lol

^ remove the power steering several hundred kilos and add coilovers

you know I kinda saw that coming. Janspeed are meant to be good, I have a Blueflame and despite all the haters here I like it just fine.

don't replace with a standard renault one, they rust through every time at that sort of mileage, they hold water and the back boxes rot. Cheaper and more sensible to get a stainless stell one, circa £300

well mines going in on Wednesday and WILL pass with a hole in the cat... lol

you can buy a warranty worth feck all from a lot of places yes, but why bother? cheaper to put the money aside each month to cover any repairs when they happen
