It does say that they have modified the kit and added a larger cone filter .

From that pic i'd say the surface area of the filter is alot larger than the surface area of the OE filter .

Got to agree . If there wasn't a recess it would look good , but with the recess in the bumper it just doesn't look right to me . Each to their own tho' !

Lookswise . I like it alot . Never had any experience of them myself though . Being a cotton air filter it'll sound loud , just as you want ;) I'd say it was pretty cheap considering the price of similar cotton air filters from Green and K+N cost hell of alot more without any sort of airbox...

The higher the number the slower the car . I think that's how it works anyway ;) Welcome to Cliosport :)

They fit bob on . There is just a tiny little bit of plastic that needs filing off on the back . Literally takes a couple of seconds then they sit flush in the wings .

Pmsl :approve:

Its hard to say without seeing a pic . If you put a pic up i can tell you .

i've never used spacers so i'm not that clued up on em tbh . You'll need something like 5mm . Put a post up about " what spacers " and you might get a bit more help . I'm sure there will be a few others on here that will have encountered the same problem and have more info about it .

The 182 wheels have a higher offset so they sit further into the arch . You need some spacers to bring the wheel out slightly . That should solve the problem .

It scrapes on the inside of the wheel ?

On the back there are 2 little lugs . File them down and they fit bob on :)

I wouldn't personally . I'd stick with the 205's myself . I'd be asking the question . " Why are they scraping " ? Has it been lowered , wrong offset wheels ??

Tell em to fcuk off mate . They are shafting you big time . Like Steve says , the rear discs are only 8mm new , minimum thickness is 6mm , you've probably got another 18months - 2 years left in em yet as they do fcuk all .

I know you can't you Mr Informative . But like i said in my previous post they are BOG STANDARD BRAKES , nothing special . If you want a manual showing the same brakes get one for a Citroen ZX 1991 - 94 or Pug 306 1993 - 95 . The calipers are almost exactly the same as the 1*2's both front and...

Like the man says . Do it yourself . Save a fortune , once you know how to change them it's always there when you need to do it in the future . If your unsure , get a haynes manual .172's brakes aren't anything special pretty bog standard or get a mate who's done it before to give you a hand...

At last , someone who talks sense :)

^^^ That might be why then , they will be aiming too low . I love the xenons on my 182 , my 172's xenons were fine as well both on standard suspension .

^^^ They are self levelling mate . Have you lowered your car ?? They can be adjusted manually inside the engine bay . You have to switch the ignition on then adjust them with the white allen screws .

I'd say it was as much to do with saving money as saving weight . I'd hate to lose the xenons though . If you can get some at a good price go for it .

Just to give you an idea of what they look like .

Not really keen on the supersprayer . Not enough foam for me and no pressure .

Only on CS will you find one at that abnormally low price . Everywhere else expect to pay around 9 - 9.5k for 55 plate if it's in good condition . Why do people always under value their cars on here . It's beyond me :eek:

Well work it out mate . £6.50 for 8 - 17 extra bhp . Tuning companies with years of experience charge around £300 for a remap for less bhp . Who's actually bullshitting and who actually knows what they are doing ?? I'd say the tuning companies ;)

I can't see Chipsaway doing that for £35 quid tbh . It wouldn't be worth his time , effort , fuel , cost of paint ........ It'll but more in the region of £70 - £100 imo .

Looks good mate . I'd change the side repeaters for smoked ones though if it was me then it would be inkeeping with the anthracite wheels and door badges . Second ones down would finish it off imo . They are more grey than they look in the pic ...

Sounds exactly like Turtle wax " wax it wet " tbh . Only a fiver from Tescos ;)

Your lucky then . If it was vinyl the lacquer would react with it and melt it . If you find you've haven't got as gloss a finish as you wanted , get some Meguiars Scratch X , it'll come up really shiny .

Now you've just shattered my illusions of your thing :( Sorry mate , not keen on that body kit at all , especially in primer grey :dead: Each to their own though if you fancy it .

You need to get it installed by an approved Toad installer for the insurance company to recognise the Thatcham Cat 1 rating .
