185/55/15 are an uncommon size, so its usually cheaper to fit 195/55/15 (well I fit 195/50/15 as they are lower profile) and being a more common size means as well as being a bit wider they are cheaper

Lol at the haters saying why would you want that at 20, yeah because bitches love 172's with yozzas. When i was 20 i had my brand new gt dci clio, £16k of motor, my mate had a polished up £1200 318i and everyone thought he was loaded with his beemer, birds loved it

Venom are having issues with FK so they have got me AP coilovers due this weekend so pics will be up as soon as they are on. Will be straight into Progrip Larbert for a full geometry setup too also got carried away and ordered a stainless turbo downpipe/decat pipe from Protoxide in Italy (£250...

mine went up 26p, ill give my daily freddo at work a miss 1 day a month to cover the cost, hardly the end of the world

full lazer geometry check should show up any issues with belt bottom arms/subframe. it showed up immediately when Renault fitted mine back on properly and showed up on my mrs 1.6 16v when it had a bent bottom arm

2500 miles, engine spun a bearing and destroyed its self. bodged back together by ARNOLD CLARK STIRLING (IDIOTS) was given it back with the steeringwheel sitting at 2 oclock when going straight, they massively adjusted tracking to "fix it" however it was actually the full subframe being on...

least they only stuck the clio badge on the juke!, Renault stuck the f**king engine in the clio

ive used the proper tool and it is much easier but jubilee clip is fine!

when I change maps on my twingo with my RS tuner it ocassionally stalls at junctions for the first few minutes then its spot on and idles better

filter, better intercooler, 172/182 injectors, decat and a good map (rs tuning). standard turbo limits you to around the 150hp mark, no point in really going for anything bigger unless your forging it

well I assume hes not going to be mapping it himself hence why I said you could only do it for less if you can map! of course you wouldn't need to map it to get it running but 100hp isn't much for all the time and money you just spent converting

internals are the same in the bottom end its the top end that's uprated slightly to handle the boost, but afaik compression ratio in the same. it would be a doddle other than the ecu/wiring that's the only bit Im not sure about. straight line it wont be as quick as a 172/182 until your running...

ive got one of these type things bolted onto my exhaust manifold...

all had sunroofs until 2004 no matter what model, after 2004 I believe it was optional extra only. as any I had didn't have one after this date other than 2 that had full electric sunroofs (which still rattle like f**k btw!!) 1.6 16v are cheap to buy, go ok for what they are although aint great...

I thought the 200 could never be a proper hot hatch until i bought one and they are brilliant, the thing lift off oversteers like a 205 gti!!

Diesels are a lot more complicated than petrols. If the fuel pump fails which is getting more common now they are older it takes out the injectors too, so pump, injectors, fuel lines all nees replaced, tank needs drained and cleaned. Not a cheap fix!

you could do it for under a grand if your handy, much less if you can map! £1000 ontop of your £1500 1.2 16v, sure you could buy a 172 for that money but you would have something just as fast and very unique for your cash!

not worth it at all then, the potential £1000+ bill of the DCi going wrong is not worth having on your shoulders when your only doing 200 miles a week.

wonder when the twingo RS will get a TCE140!

how many miles a week do you do?

remember that time the 182 was the last proper "old skool" hot hatch, and the Williams, and the 5 turbo...

why not buy one that's of equal or better spec so the only con is older?! dci65 is slower to 60 but faster 60+

no one has pushed standard internals past 170hp, and only one guy that I know of as pushed past 160hp. quite a few happily pushing out 150hp/150lbft though, all you need is 172/182 injectors, bigger intercooler, exhaust& decat and a good map id like to do a conversion if I had a spare ph2, as...

LOL FAIL, things always get quickly out of hand, however i owe 15k less than i did this time last year, and i have a bomb proof car that doesnt seem to ever let me down! so mods are justified ;) house deposit isnt going good haha

ill check it out! still waiting on the FK's from Venom Motorsport thats been nearly 3 months now, delay after delay after delay delivery dates come and go and i keep needing to chase them they dont let me know! wheels are finished need to order a set of Toyo R888's for them just waiting to see...

Ill take you out in the Twiglet!

i like the RS192 sounds just a tad louder than the standard exhaust, my mates had 4 of the things under warranty though

dodgey angle so hard to tell but both pipes should be the same length

maby with no recaros or something not 100%

dci 106 will spit out the dummy when you up the boost without an ECU remap
