I have a similar on my car with the wheels on the car being 205/45 16" and my spare being 195/50 15" And the spare is uni directional. I had to last 3 days with the spare rotating the wrong way round when one of my wheels was in for repairs. Provided I drive faster than about 80kph or corner...

Im up in Joeys

clutch is not covered I think

A while ago I posted that in 3rd I was reaching 150kph (93mph) @ 7000 rpm which seemed a tad high. I tested this a few times on the same night to make sure. I was out last night and thought Id give the car a bit of a blast. To my suprise: 1st - hit the limiter just over 60kph (37mph) 2nd...

So if I remove the spare wheel, the engine cover and the rear headrests (mine doesnt have HID headlights, Rain sensing wipers, auto lights or traction/ESP system) will that make my car a 172 Mug since it will be almost as light as the Cup (and its blue too);)

rock...SA as in South Africa? Unfortunately we aint gonna get the Cup here Main differences are the Cup lacks : Leather / Alacantara Seats Climate control (option) ABS Brakes Sound deadening 86 kilograms of weight (but this gives it extra speed) The Cup has 3mm wider track at...

No one commenting on performance then?

no, there is no chance of getting more air into the engine than the inlet manifold will allow, unless youre using forced induction

whats the original tyre profile on the 1.4 sport? 165/65 14"?

I was reading a local car magazine last night and there was an advert for a so called high performance exhaust. Basically the exhaust is a freeflow (it has a small silencer with less restriction) and the entire length of the zorst including silencer is covered on a black heat resistance and...

cept that you dont get new williams anymore

Clear side repeaters were my first mod too (not counting wheels) They just look awesome on a blue car, but they did make my silver look much cleaner http://home.imaginet.co.za/viceroy/smallblue.jpg

Towser, would have really appreaciated that, but I dont live in the UK so postage might be a bit high

All piston driven engines have power bands which falls between peak torque and peak power. In this band the car will be at its most powerful. in the 172 this band is rather narrow (only 850rpm) and falls between 5400rpm (peak torque) and 6250rpm (peak power) one side affect of this narrow...

Thanks.

Anyone know how much power the 172 engine is producing at 7000rpm? or 7250rpm? Thanks

UPDATE!!! "Optimum Gear Change Indicator" = 2nd little red dot below the 7 on the Rev Counter. ie, when the needle touches this you better change NOW or youre going to lose the race

would wheels with a larger offset than normal also screw the suspension and put strain on the bolts?

I think Ill give it a go...now to find some cheap spacers...last time I looked I could get some aluminium ones for 100 quid

Only the front? Did you use longer bolts too?

Anyone have any idea which engine theyre going to be using and will it fit directly into a 172...or do we just need to change the 172 head to a megane RS head?

be the first to turbo it ps. tuning, not tunning;)

A 172 Cup with no Cups...Id send it back to the dealer to have them fitted along with the badges on the door pillars and the front splitter...but wouldnt that now be adding Weight to the car which is against the point of the Cup entirely...Just put a paper Cup into your cup...should really help...

After reading through the advert I have decided that... ITS A LOAD OF BOLLUX!:cry: Never heard of any chip giving 20bhp on a Clio.

Thanks mate
