    Can't remove brake disc

    drill out, not really needed anyway the wheel bolts hold them on, when you replace them dont put them in to tight and they wont be so hard to come out next time lol (you can get away with this because of the above reason)

    my clio 1.2 16 valve turbo conversion

    will be loosing torque with that relocation pipe. yes you can use the twingo gt parts (although keeping in mind the twingo gt has different internals in the engine if your spending the money on it do it properly and go all out and do something no ones done before, forged internals etc and...

    The impression your car gives off...

    thats why i hatted my old 1.2 and didnt bother stripping 172! "erm why you got no seats or carpets?!"

    182 replica, do i need to declare to insurance?

    1.2s are terrible on fuel, i get more miles to a tank in my 172 than i did in my 1.2 lol and its easy to drive the 172 like a granny, 1.2s are f**king awful driving like a granny you wont get anywhere! im insuring my 172 at 19 with 2yrs ncb for £800 so surely it wont cost you that much!

    Catalytic Converter - 8v - 16v ?

    its been a while since i last worked on 1, it LOOKS the same ie with flexy pipe etc if its a <2004 car with the flexi but if its a 2004> car it will have the springs and studs like foxys if you look at his pic

    Few clean(ish) pics of the stealth 'beast' [PIC HEAVY]

    Back end always stepping out?

    100% will be rear shocks if tyres are decent and pressures fine, i spun my 172 twice at 30mph on wide roundabouts because of it, didnt even have time to catch it because was just driving slow with 1 hand on wheel and it just jumped out! you could feel it being unstable at speed on a straightline...

    Few clean(ish) pics of the stealth 'beast' [PIC HEAVY]

    looks good, totally needs a decent detail and could do with being lowered though!

    my exhaust won't seal

    never needed any paste for my k-tec system, sealed perfectly with standard gasket and never needed any at centre section to backbox joint
  23. Martin_172

    ive fixed my exhaust mounts and thought i would share!

    because they then need replaced every bloody year, even sooner if you have a heavyer system than standard which most aftermarket ones are! or else your exhaust just doesnt sit properly! not good if you have an under bumper system

    light under fuel light coming on when braking

    cheers guys ill get a shot of a fault reader, reason the fuel light isnt on is because its got 130 miles of diesel left lol
  25. Martin_172

    My exhaust is f****d

    dont know the setup on the 1400 but it might be the flexi pipe or nut bolt and spring fitting kit what ever one it has best bet is to pop the bonnet and get someone to rev it and see if the noise is coming from down the back of the engine. non RS exhausts are actually pretty decent compaired...

    HELP! Starting to get pi55ed off!

    light under fuel light coming on when braking

    1.2 16v dynamique OR dci65 dynamique?

    all very well but not going to give half the mpg of a dci not going to be as cheap to tax or insure either! and imo you would then be worth paying the bit extra for an RS model by the time uve declaired your remap to insurance
  30. Martin_172

    got my first 172

    axel tram causes the banging when the wheels spin, it wont do the car any good and will kill cv joints and gearboxes! just a word of warning hehe
