400 miles and modding already. Bravo Sir!

Good thinking - whatever you do, dont look down!

well not so much took it out, just didnt put it in!

and hopefully so is that beemer Geoff ;)

Dont think you get it in the 182 or the V6 - the other 2004 models do though.

Nice when that happens :D

found it on the old yahoo 172 site - everyone from there came here!

Rsport ECU runs idle at around 1200rpm. Would this help?

Hmmm Ill be interested to hear what you think - £500 not bad really :)

Just call them and ask whether its in stock. If it is you can be confident of getting it in about 3 days (ordered some springs last week - took 3 days!). If its not in stock its just down to you whether you can stand the wait.

Youre right - doesnt mean it shouldnt be done, just doesnt make it a commercial reality! And to be honest thats half the fun of it - experiment - see what happens! [Edited by telford_mike on 02 May 2004 at 12:43am]

http://www.powerbulbs.comhttp://www.powerbulbs.com - youll get free sidelight bulbs too.

^^^^ hes right you know. Loads of people have done the usual exhaust / chip / IK thing. How many have done a throttle-body conversion? I know of 1.

Hi Danny, welcome to the madhouse mate. Cornering noise?? Wheel bearing maybe? Worth checking anyway. Gearbox crunch is probably something to get used to - its not the best gearchange in the world to be honest.

Hill Power are in Leicestershire - dtails on their website. mr bognor - there are some minor electronic differences - nothing much, but different versions of the ECU are available for the different engines.

No not a big fan of DIY! But Im going to Hillpower anyway so I thought Id let them pop it in. I have a hard enough time topping up my washer fluid! I think the Mk1 is the same procedure, but the ECU is different - you need to know your engine type to order the ECU. [Edited by telford_mike on...

No - dont have a viper (but many on here do) - getting the ECU next week.

You can fit it yourself - DIY guide <A target=_blank href= "http://brandon.frost.users.btopenworld.com/ecu.htmhere andd itll cost about £250 I think. [Edited by telford_mike on 30 April 2004 at 7:24pm]

you can get a Renaultsport group N ECU from http://www.hillpower.co.ukhttp://www.hillpower.co.uk

After the alarm has gone off the LED flashes. It will flash with a different sequence depending what set it off. It would be good if it had a self-test though.

The limiter is different in different gears on mine too. BUT NOT FOR LONG :devilish:

ask them how the hell you are expected to change a wheel!! Or are there no locking nuts on the wheels either?

Here you go - stage 1, IK, ECU, Brakes etc etc.. for 172. Much more for valvers as theres more demand. http://www.hillpower.co.ukhttp://www.hillpower.co.uk

Out of interest, where were they from?

Wait and see whether they fit when your spacers arrive. If not get some 3mm spacers (Halfords) and try again. If they still wont fit because theyre simply unsuitable you should send them back and get your money back, as theyre unfit for the purpose for which they were sold.

and here it is on 17"s which I guess you might want at some stage.. http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/wheel.jpg

This is standard wheels with Eibach Pro spring kit.. http://homepages.tesco.net/~mmikee/low/3.jpg

40mm is about as low as you can go without arch work on a 172. Look in the gallery and find JillyBs car - I think its 40mm.

lol youre one short he needs 4 of them :devilish:
