    anyone running an LSD on a 172/182?

    does it feel any different to drive day to day or are they much the same? how about fitting, ive never taken a gearbox apart before but ive changed a few on a clio! so getting it off and on isnt a problem its just the actual fitting of the diff? do the standard driveshafts fit ok?

    anyone running an LSD on a 172/182?

    only running around 190bhp but looking at getting ITB's later this year. had a shot of a civic with an LSD yesterday and was very impressed with the pull out low speed bends you just mash the throttle and go!

    Clio dci????

    todays bargain!!

    i take it you cant use the 172 clutches then? i was under the impression that the injectors were the same and it was just the fuel pump that was different or is that the 80 and 100 im thinking of? yeah that much torque would be awesome!!!

    Springs or coilovers?

    adjustable damping coilovers are a pain because your never happy you spend all day playing with the things haha
  22. Martin_172

    Springs or coilovers?

    coilovers are going to keep your ride comfort depending on the dampers used and if they are adjustable what you set them at, its going to handle better if setup properly and you can go as low as you want springs are going to make it sit a bit lower, you cant adjust them, and if your using...
