need to watch doing that ^ can end up cracking exhaust manifolds especially if your engine mounts are worn

iceberg is a funny colour sometimes when the light catches it your wing looks a complete different shade compaired to your door but its not! my guy made a cracking match on mine, 1 side of mine was painted due to some c**t keying it

ive heard its mega strict to import cars over there, better getting a left hooker imported (mexico possibly)

JCC's car is a piece of s**t.... my 172 is better ;)

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction pmsl ive just read this thread for the first time to find this post?!?!?!?!

no it wont, the driver will make the engine work harder by giving it more throttle, at 10% throttle you will get LESS air with a dirty air filter, which in part the ecu will put less fuel in to match the air. the engine wont "work harder" just to suck air in

less air into engine = less fuel = better mpg + less power. wouldnt make that much difference btw!

cant really see it if anything the dirty airfilter will give better mpg lol

as above if wd40 and hitting it square on with a hammer doesnt help then heat it with the blowtorch, get cheap small ones in halfords

erm the diesel if ur worried about fuel consumtpion lol

why would servicing it make the mpg any better?!

i got better mpg from my 172 than i got from my 1.2 16v they are terrible. punt it for a diesel i get 65mpg in mine

lol im going to buy it for the hat!

cant remember off the top of my head but they do idle really low i always think ive stalled it when i get into it because im used to the diesel

^ yep had to do that with my mrs car was idling like a piece of s**t

Re: Project 172:Unknown Direction my dci would have it for breakfast

buy a dci instead, hump 172's after a map

if your on here im the guy who was speaking to you after we had a blast ;)

its a bit of a pain but really worth it

my ph2 used to pop flames on gearchanges when going for it and used to shoot flames when you hit the limiter in 5th (and probably other gears)

yawwwn!!! anything will fit if you have enough cash, the easier options are... F4R 2.0 16v K4M 1.6 16v K9K 1.5 DCi (s**t loads of work but it fits lol) R5 GTT engine fits but as mentioned above they are getting a bit old now, if you were doing it ideally you would want to rebuild the full...
