if you look closely it has a VERY subtle smaller plate that fits the recess and doesnt overhang the bumper like they do as standard.
if i can get an rs kit in pearl black ill go for it but not that fussed, it was supposed to be a runabout but its my only car now hence why its been getting some...
thats what i done then sold my 190bhp 172 and remaped the dci, granted its no where near as fast straight line but still massively capable and mega fun to drive with the sportlines on it, dont regret selling the 172!
mint i love my mapped 100, the 4th gear pull mid range is awesome!
i found at 30mph in 5th gear as standard it was borderline undrivable always used 4th as it wasnt smooth at all, now its fine and you can easily overtake in 5th gear.
and how many thousand JB1, JB3 and JC5 boxes have been changed on cars under 30k miles?! ive change loads of J Series renault boxes and never any others!
this will give you a bit more info http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/how_to/4212608.html
the plugs are 72k or 3 years i beleive?
happened to my mates 172 we got a local engineering place to helicoil it, only cost about £30 from memory!
lol i waited for this for months then gave up and sold the car so i could just buy something faster as i didnt want itbs or chargers im a standard ecu man!
rubber seal on the ariel base i bet, seems to happen on the cars with the larger ariel base, dont know if they changed them after a certain age etc but my 53 plate has the larger one and none of my others did (51,02,03 plates) and the rubber seal is all fucked on it
my mate had an s14 when i had my 190bhp 172, his was running a few goodies (hks manifold, nismo injectors, front mount, nur spec R and decat, boost controller) estimated around 300/320bhp.
straight line it was mental, would see off most things you will meet on the road! my mate got to about...
yeah mate fine to drive it, you can adjust it but if its bent just replace it, 5 minute job to replace, wee bit of trial and error to setup then thats it :)
any linkage will fit ie non RS ones too if your getting one from the scrappies.
nitro is great for about an hour then they just end up causing problems. electric is much more fun imo charge it run it throw it back in the garage then charge it 3 years later and use it again no f**king about with trying to start it again
