I love the green, but I think the orange suits the car better?

Standard 172 making 185bhp? Just noticed the exhaust, still dubious. I imagine they keep them reading high so people think they are getting full value from the kits they purchase.

Opinion fella! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=373747

All the gear........

Adress for your confectionary!!

Renault do similar colour for the cup racers.

I love the green, just not sure if it'll look chavvy on a 172? Ditto the orange?

Had one done in the week, but the metallic car, made the colours look strange. Any chance someone could pshop these colours (Green and orange), and also matt black onto this car (Hope Middo doesn't mind use of the pic!) Mars bars for whoever does this for me!

Not nice. I'd even rather drive mine tbh.

Not sure if it's different because the rears are a coilover with the ast's? I don't know, TBH my knowledge of suspension is as bad as Riz's knowledge of personal grooming.

On the read out, it's got before and after. The before reading is lower, (1.5iirc), they changed the springs, re-did the set-up, ended up with that?

Thats what the read out says. I'll scan the read out in tonight.

Yep, AST coilovers. 1.3-ve and 2.0-ve

It might be quicker, but does that make it more fun? Personally, I'd get a ph1 172 and pocket the change.

Couple of days ago, found the print out of my alignment done at Powerstation, noticed that the camber is different right to left? 1.3 on drivers side, 2.0 on passenger side (rear wheels), any reason for this, or just a c**k up?

Balls! Searched but couldn't find. Worthy of a repost though;)

Car breaks down, so this rally driver climbs under the bonnet, and manually controls the throttle while the co-driver steers. Hero! http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=18978

Depends on the quality of the vinyl. If it's decent, heat and peel. If not, it'll brake up while you take it off, and take bloody ages!

Nimbus looks fantastic on the R27, but oddly does nothing for me on the regular 197. Nimbus for me, don't think Albi suits the R27.

Re: Updated the rear end with some ph 2 lights and then decided to swap my f1's for 1 F1's just look right on the ph1.

White's been done already, be original! I'm deciding between viper green, gt3rs orange, matt black.

Not sure how much the paint-work is going to cost, but you could get a full wrap (any colour you want) for sub 1k.

Looks great, I'll lend you my camera to get some noise footage!

Always been told (by suppliers) that uprated are not required. TBH they stand to make more cash if I did, so I'm inclined to believe them.

Need to get a load of wedding/honeymoon pics printed off for an album, where's good??

Went over today, either grey, matt black, or yellow. Hmmmmm.

Drive an R26 before you decide.

Fair enough, but don't forget you were probably comparing a car that was at least 12 month (if not more) older than the other, and the effect miles/age has on suspension etc. I actually drove the 172/Trophy/ and a 182 on the same day (sadly I owned 2 RS's at once). The Trophy is miles ahead of a...

All shite;)
