oh yash, cup alloys are the way to go. And i aint talking turinis

whats that coming over the hill is it a..... clio 182?

you can get one which is built into a cap or something IIRC do a search Iain as Ally was going on about this over a year ago.

the limiter is at different RPM in each gear too, in 1st it'll bounce of 6500/6750 when cold, instead of 7250 - that's just 1st. Can't remember the other gears.

13k for my front tyres i engine brake a hell of a lot, use the gears too much maybe

hmmm well it could just be the fluid as thats all it was in mine. im not a heavy braker, 27k miles and changed my front pads at 25k

eh?! happens more round corners so defo the pads?! me no think so... fluid, top it up. Engine cover off, looking at the engine from front its at the back of the engine on the left, underneath the block.

at 9900 miles u would not struggle to sell for £8k

they should PM you, check out the for sale thread here, prices are more realistic (usually) here than in autotrader etc.

people were trying to sell u their cars in the wrong place and they aint even members so if they want to advertise they can pay and do it where they're supposed to.

mk1 172, mk2 172 and 182 are all getting more and more affordable all the time so it will only get worse.

gutting, I suppose its a risk you take with a modded car costs much more to repair when something like this happens. I know how you must feel, I cringe when it happens to me and I expect to get a hefty bill + colour coding.

not that one! its not that appealing to me anyway, lack of history and mileage.

I'd pay £11,500 brand new, £10,000 for 05, £9000 for 04-54 and less if high mileage

yeah the word 'ACOUSTIC' kinda hints what its for eh?! lol it's prob just for driveby noise restrictions.

You know you've been ragging it when you leave the apex of the corner backwards in fact no thats when you know you cant drive and you just found out what lift off oversteer is.

I always thought they needed a chassis number or reg number to get the part numbers? maybe there's other search options, I'm led to believe rear shockas are the same but its the fronts that vary?

sticky it!!! so the shockers are different because? is it the bolt spacing at the hub or something?

is aluminium ducting a good cold air feed material?...

exactly yes and no from me, yes for the 3/4 length but no to the illegal font, its not worth the hassle and doesnt look as good as it would properly spaced.

how heat resistant though? aluminium is a good conductor of heat, hence its used to make heat sinks, but i'd think using it like this won't act like a heatsink as it's not as if its bolted directly to a warm engine component i.e. it will take time to warm up before it heats the air inside it...

well here's a funny one my boss found out: BT internet broadband they have and I went round to set it up, no DSL, tried my ADSL modem and their BT Voyager router, nothing. Turns out the junction box (phone socket on the wall) is a crap design and the filter doesnt plug right in to it...

nah he was talking about the acoustic valve. my 1991 205 gti was one of the last new cars to not require a cat by law.

an exhaust alone from cat back will prob not give any gains. de-cat might free up a few bhp but dont expect anything from a cat back, if u get anything consider it a bonus.

u still should declare a stealth zorst as they're non standard...

^ My thoughts exactly, nothing wrong with high standards but perfection takes a lot of time and therefore costs a lot of money. Value for money appeals to me. his priorities changed when he got a Willy.

aye but that means nothing, need the same temperature, same rolling road, same engine i.e. same mileage same components yeah they may be made to same spec but they're all different, manufacturing tolerances on every single component. i.e. some are better than others from new.

map sensors etc eh

blueflame group buy on just now, 30% off RRP get your local place to fit it but get the exhaust from them if you fancy it. 172 cat back stainless steel system with lifetime warranty - RRP £295 + £15 delivery = £310 group buy price: £206.50 + £15 delivery = £221.50 saving £88.50 doesnt have...

cool, so it's a good idea to block the pipe off then eh. nail or otherwise. defo not wise leaving it drawing air. Works in much the same way as Scottoiler or a vacuum fuel tap on a motorbike.
