I spec'd my GT with every option bar Satnav! didn't like the way it looked. I did however spec the best option.... Diesel!

there is no hole in his intake pipe he has it blocked with the supplied plug? I still stand by the fact that they run better on the standard recirc valve though the guy who has my old one has a forge dump valve on it and it doesn't drive as nice and sounds terrible, its like a baby sneezing...

ive never had a puncture in 7yrs and probably 150k lol!

that looks good, gonna email him about some red ones as my drivers one is gubbed and doesn't wind back in!

they drive much better with the standard recirc valve fitted!

the relays click? never noticed it

as above less than £100 for an OptiPlex with a core2duo and stick 2gb of ram in it that's what ive been doing recently for people looking for systems works out much cheaper than building with current new budget kit

I posted up about building a F4R kangoo 4x4 a few years back and basically got told to forget it as the drive train is horribly fragile the diesel doesn't have more torque than the F4R as said above, it was a detuned 1.9 dci with only 130lb/ft, 20 less than a standard 172

as above, mine has a 35k 182 engine in it (its a 105k 172)

my first ph2 172, ITG Pannel filter, Samco Bend, AWT matched inlets, 182 exhaust manifold, Ktec Decat/link pipe & Ktec stealth and the 200 standard bar a Pipercross panel filter

cheers for the advice ill do a bit of reading up!

so the quaiffe doesn't need any maintenance you can just fit it and forget it? what about the gripper what needs done and how often?

carbon wrap a dynamique SX splitter

does it drive any different in daily driving, any disadvantages? Ive driven factory cars with diffs but never any sort of aftermarket diff

already got one, just waiting until the engines back in before I fit it to save wasting coolant ;)

yeah totally ive had F1s on most of my clios at some point and always loved it but for some reason it just didn't look right on this! ive had a few 172's and always spent a bit of cash on them then sold them and never got them where I wanted, but this time I decided ill go for it. clutch needs...

that's got potential btw!

cheers guys, its a real different car from the shed I picked up :) although it does owe me about £4000 now inc buying it, but it was always a keeper from the beggining

40 mile commute cross country roads, 190lb/ft ftw ;)

I had these, used to grab the 100 keys the most though ;)

looks like a steering wheel cover from the pound shop

only downside is you will be £300 worse off. upside... more power better fuel economy better drivability loads more torque

Update: Done 5000 miles in it since I bought it and so far its been pretty reliable, well for a Clio!!!! all its needed in 5000 miles/6 months is rear discs/bearings, 2 driveshafts, warranty replacement on one of the new shafts a month later, front wheel bearings, reverse light switch and a coil...

theres a golf GTI sport goes about here

is it a dci 65 or 80? don't bother with exhausts and induction kits just stick a pipercross panel filter in the airbox and have the car remapped, expect 90bhp from a 65 or 115 from a 80 if that's the case

regardless of pace the 100 drives 10x better, and for that reason it makes a better commuter! that's where my money would be, well that's where my money went in the end up after owning the others lol

tic toc tic toc tic toc

lol at the last picture are you old enough to drive? id remove the flaps, stickers, sunstrip and alloys if it was me spoiler looks good

on my current one I replaced... Bottom arms inc ball joints track rod ends track rods steering rack bushes top mounts dampers all round new springs basically EVERYTHING that can wear, and still I had odd handling, took it all to get setup on my local hunter machine and straight away it showed...

fuel consumption there is next to zero in it few mpg between an 80 and a 100, 65's are in the middle. I found insurance the same on all models maby my age though road tax is £20 on all of them (or at least was last time I had one) 100 is more refined due to better gearbox and hydraulic...
