It is boomy at certain rpm Is it new as I found the longer it's been in the car the less boomy it has become.

I'm still undecided about removing this valve as my car does seem to go like a rocket and run well with it on and I'm a bit of a believer in the 'if it's not broken don't fix it' phrase. I may just uplug the air feed at the airbox end to see if there is any noticeable difference in performance.

Looks good....how you going to get to the screw for the towing eye of you need to use it though?

lol at the carrot commment Have to diasagree though.....going from my 172 with xenons to my Gfs 1.2 without is quite a shock! I find the lights on my 172 great for nightime driving. As for the halfords bulb route..shite...worse than normal hedlights

Sounds familiar...Pulsar weak spot always was the gearbox/transmission. I can say from my experience that the Clo is reliable....I've had my 172 for nearly 2 years and it's been a reliable car.

Just watch your points with Admiral..they'll want £200/300 more just with one SP30:eek: Best I found for my 172 was with More than

I second that.....no way I would put 17s on a 172.

Yep those are the 'approved' CS mods lol:D

What a s**t box

Location very important to insurance prices

I saw another 197 in red yesterday as I was cycling home....such a great looking car, wide & aggressive:D

Have to agree...I doubt wether special Renault vinyl is any different to the average stuff but I would ask them to re do it do they line up preperly.

Welcome to CS

lol or take the hammer to it. Each to their own (being PC and all that) but I personally think it looks gash.

Welcome to CS Car looks great:D

Sounds like your having fun I always enjoy driving the 172....great handling:D

EBC discs are shite for some reason

Get some pics up when you get it:D

I second that and I've been using CAD for five years I always draw at 1:1 in model space then have quite a few different text styles for different heights in mm in Layout/sheet ie for 2.5mm @ 1:1000 in model the text size is either 2500 if your drawing in mm or 2.5 if your drawing in m...

Must try that one:D

I think that sums up my sentiments as well....most of the scrotes out there wouldn't know f-all about the origin of the stripes. I personally think the only cars they should be on is Shelby Mustangs and Ford GT40s

Doesn't look that bad

Agree with the above...Renault are scoring pretty well in the safety stakes thses days:D

Nice car Not a fan of the wheels and rear lights though

Not the best example....a bit tatty if you ask me. What's going on with those triangluar reflectors at the back:S

They just suit the car 100% If I get any new wheels for my 172 it will be a set of Turinis as they look factory fitted...like they are supposed to be on the car unlike the crome/bling shite that some people ruin their cars with.

Sounds like it could be the solenoid....they can get blocke with oil which will affect the boost. Good luck getting it sorted out:D

That's a great looking car in the petrol blue colour. I'd keep it myself:D

That's a nice mod....okay, not performance orientated but makes quite a difference. Can get them from K-tec for around the £100 mark

Pretty much the same for me As far as the 172 goes I'm just going to look after it with proper servicing but I'll just upgrade stuff like brakes etc when the OE ones wear out.
