MK1 172 if you want the raw feeling when driving, wee 15" wheels, alu bonnet, lighter etc
theres always the 172 cup too but the RS1 is the best of both worlds, all the toys with the light weight of the cup :)
its easy enough to make a decat yep but not a sports cat surely?
and i think the 15bhp bit is a general description of a sports cat not just the 1.2 one
pmsl^^
try and get yourself a phase 3 bumper with fogs already in it mate, looks twice as good as the ph2 one (trying to get myself one in black)
dont know whos this is but its from here.....
s**t never thought about that, cleaning mine for the first time tomorrow. mine have more brake pad on them than the caliper lol (thats probably true to be honest my brakes are gone!)
my car handled better on the 15s than it did on the turinis but it grips a bit better with the turinis (16")
Been thinking of getting a Sports cat or a decat for my car, dont really want the hastle of a decat having to change it over at mot time and have problems with dashboard lights coming on so decided on a sports cat.
i found THIS sports cat on the net and was wondering if anyone has ever heard...
lol i see some people have already posted about mine.
yep im at 121,000 miles, ex driving school was 4 years old in may 02 plate only had to replace coil pack and clutch
ive seen this car loads over the last 2 days so i assume someones just bought it with the CS sticker on it

just fancied a chat if ur on, had a cliosport sticker in the window.
for the rest of you wondering what happened, we both overtook and the dude obviously didnt slow down enough for hte corner, i knew he was spinning before he even entered the corner (it was wet btw) ended up doing a 360 in the...
im looking at upgrading my DEH-P8600MP to that one, the full colour OEL display looks mint, the ipod adaptors arnt ment to be that great but ill let someone who has one comment on it, i was told you cant use the ipod when its plugged into the adaptor?
basically sound quality will be brilliant...
so uve spent about £600+ (thats if its all new stuff) on modding your mums car? £600 will get you a good enough car, much better idea get it insured then after that think about modding it!
i wouldnt bother, unless you go for a full remap after youve done breathing mods and some engine work.
with decent breathing mods mine is noticeably quicker than it was standard (plus a mega loose engine, 121,000 miles) i would guess about 80bhp for mine-roughly and this is with the standard...
done this last week with mine shat myself! they came back though and working fine, although my pads dont exist anymore and i get grinding metal noises, job for this week lol found myself dropping it into 2nd at 60mph and first at 30mph to stop the thing when i done it
