Edde, I think you should get a weekend car like a caterham or westfield. You can fix everything yourself then and it would be a really dedicated driving machine, and you clearly enjoy driving...

I bought it to standardise and then sell on. I am selling all the 172 parts. As for the splitter, it was a cup splitter but it was stolen by Royal Mail. Sam

Argh right makes sense now :) What changes when the rack is at a different angle then? Sam

RB.

lol, always above that :eek:

Oh right ok, so what is the purpose of that electic clip on the rack itself?

BANG

I am confused. People say you need a cage to fit harnesses correctly or else they will crush you in an accident... Yet in this pic your harnesses are mounted in the same position as mine, and I don't have a cage?

:s where is the motor for it then? Is that small clip thing that plugs into the joint between the column and the steering arms just a sensor? Cheers Sam

I only get around 27mpg in my 1.2. I think its just because you are used to going a certain speed but to get the 1.2 to go at that speed you have to give it some beans.

Hello mate, You will want the following tyres: 195/45/16 or 205/45/16 You will want a spacer of between 4 and 7mm. www.alloyguide.co.uk is a good website and it explains some of the jargon. Sam

I have a 1.2 16V clio on an 02 plate. NathanH replaced the rack today as I bent the steering arm and all is good. We decided to leave the clip unplugged to disable the power steering as I hate the way the steering is so light. Even with this clip disconnected the car still turns far easier...

You will have to cut the bumper in that case.

The rings are too narrow. You can cut them to fit. What colour is your car? Sam

Who's that dude in the 172 ff with cobra seats?

Likewise but I really CBA.

My advice - don't do it. It will cost a fair bit, look chavvy and cannot be put back to standard again. It will ruin the resale value. Sam

WHITE!!!!

They are sports seats so will be more supportive and will certainly improve the driving experience. Not sure on the looks as I think the difference between the front and back seats will certainly be very noticeable. Sam

Trouble is with CCing, the plastic has to be smoothed prior to painting. Do you have A2s coming up in the summer?

Like the fronts, finish looks good :) Get it lowered ;)

Yeah thats the blue mate.

Would need spacers then.

If your car isn't lowered they will fit on OK I think but they might just look a bit weird. 5-10mm spacers will do the trick though :)

In that case then...

Well it depends on what spoiler you are fitting? If you wanted to fit a V6 spoiler for example you would need smaller boot struts.

Easy. 6 torx head screws.

If you could have you time over again, what mod would you have done first? To get the ball rolling I think I would have lowered mine before doing anything else. Go...

Liquid? What about the bluish colour (a bit darker than arctic), there is a guy near where I live with an RS megane in this colour and it does look very nice.

Tbh I think you would have to have CS on side to succesfully make money from standardising it and I am not sure that will ever happen. Sam
