why didnt i do the wheels black when it was mine that looks sweet!!!

£86 for one side!!! id supply and fit both for that price lol

K4M 1600 16v engine is good, its not a fast car but a nice car to drive i like driving my mrs one, nice and torquey low down for effortless pootling about! HOWEVER, i get better mpg from my 172 than she gets and she drives like a granny the dci 100 gets more than twice the MPG, has a chunk...

i liked the elvis in the v6 thats been spotted a few times

a jack is perfect for proping it up btw!

lol my 16v would have punnished that! SBf4dwB7V3w

kumho ecsta nearly killed me with only 85bhp in my old 1.2 AVOID!!!!!! for the cash, i cant fault toyo T1R's £30 a tyre in 195/50/15 from camskill or ebay, i swear by them on my dci, they hapily put down 190lb/ft! on my 172 i used to swear by eagle F1s but they got quite expensive and imo...

usually about 280 odd miles if ive been behaving in the 172, 700 odd in the dci 100

it depends, personally i want an imaculate car with FSH as its easier to sell on for decent cash when it comes to selling it but plenty people still go by this millage is everything rule when buying and dont realise a modern car will do many hundred thousand miles!!

not sure about the backbox but as i said above the centre section isnt a problem being restrictive

loosen rear exhaust hanger, prop exhaust up as high as you can (so its touching the rubber bumper surround as it will drop a bit when you tightnen everything up and let go) tighten up the rear hanger and if its still sitting to the right then do as the guys above have said

ill decide last minute if the weathers looking good ill go, just doin what i done last year tho, £40 in the dci boost down early sunday morning get there for 9ish day at the show then spank back up the road, f**k taking the 172 on a trip that long lol

thats not genuine renault its an OE patern part, thats the same centre section my 172 got put on it under warranty by the Toyota dealership i bought it from, lasted longer than the genuine renault one and even with the shitty tiny pipework my car still made 173bhp at the scottish RR day lol

since i turned 17 5 years ago i have spent, buying and modifying clios..... £28,000 LOL!!! on top of that ive spent £7,000 on insurance and probably twice that on fuel! you could probably say ive spent around 50k since passing my test on buying, modifying, servicing, and everything...

are people seriously moaning because you done this on a public road? lol idiots

your trying to hard, fail. however i was pulled the other day for pulling away from a junction "too fast" ohh really

ordere with hids direct yesterday afternoon about 3ish and just received an email saying they will be here today between 2:10pm and 3:10pm, impressive!!

im bringing the ph1 172 just insured it today thought i was going to have to come and rip up the road in the DC-AYE anyone fancy meeting at stirling services and heading to showcase to meet everyone else?

na 1.5's are fine, the 1.9s are problematic! my last one was on 160k odd and as far as i could see was still all original (gearbox, turbo etc) had no service history either lol mine is on just over 90k now bought it just under 70k

i do a s**t load of miles with work and because i have the cheap to run reliable car my mates are forever pinching it to go down south to pick up car parts etc

aw f**k here we go again

cant wait to see another popped out diff circlip thread then!

yeah ive not got much experiance with anything other than k-tec systems but they just have hangers that go around the box and bolt up so you can move them, im assuming the others are the same!

most have a telescopic (sp) section that can be adjusted in and out to fit both cars

my mums cars never been over 60mph lol

20k so far on my high boost remap on my 100 with no worries! apparently renault gearbox's are w**k but ive only had 1 fail in the 420,000 miles my mk2's have done and the one that failed had done 150k on the gearbox oil lol

might have washed it before you took a pic!

it was working when removed from the car about 2 years ago, ill have a look it was in my 172 manifold i dont know if i gave that back to joe or not tho when i sold the car

its the better sounding out of my 2 engines but not exactly great lol,

id say possibly lambda, i think i have a spare cutting about somewhere you could try
