na 1.4 has the same injectors as the 1.6, and 1.2 runs lean after 3,000rpm with just induction mods im told.

right cheers guys, but worth it if i was going for a remap?

hi, ive got a mate who does a lot of work on older engines and engines that dont run with ECU's etc and he was telling me i should get injectors from a 1.4 16v for my 1.2 16v but what i was wondering is will this give a performance gain without touching the ecu (a remap) we've already built an...

mine is crunching from first to 2nd mate said its the syncro mesh or syncro rings or somthing? because mine is ex driving school and 1st and 2nd are the most common used gears, how many miles has your gearbox done and has it had much abuse?

subway does replica 172/182 ones they look mint and are really cheap im gona get some soon

cams and sell your sports cat for a decat :)

coming onto the roundabout at ogilvie was a williams, guy had a quick look at my car probably because of the noise it was making flooring it off the roundabout lol

do stealth exhausts still give the same free flowing performance gains that a normal cat back does? just i fancy a quiet stealth that gives a nice noise when i floor it but would rather not have the tail pipes trying to keep the car standard looking cheers

congrats mate so will their be a couple of snaps of your car in next months redline? ill need to buy it

what about 1.2 16v on 15" wheels and the same car on 16"?

depends if your just driving on the road or track to be honest no point in spending £1200 on brakes and suspension when your not taking it on track.

whos is the red 172 with 182 wheels? ive seen that in falkirk

when i setup a modded firmware on my linksys WRT54G to boost the signal strength it was getting too hot so i modded it..... Sticky ram heatsinks fitted and cut a bit out the top to fit an 80mm LED fan, then made some holes in the front to help the airflow! EDIT: Fan was only running at...

apparently gives 50% more downforce or some shite? ^^ or so i read here

i would have went for a 5400rpm laptop hard drive, uses a lot less power than a 7200rpm 3.5" and stands up to shocks better which is ideal for a car computer.

LAD power

cars lowered -60mm on an apex kit and i thought removing the back seats would make quite a big difference on a small engine? ill give it a go next time ive got nothing to do!

thinking of striping my back seats out the car since 1.2s are terrible with 3 or more people in them anyway! thing i was wondering was would the back end be too light without the back seats and be too twitchy or more likely to spin? cheers!

not true, as long as you get one thats not going to suffer from heat soak then they do make a difference

aye ye did that, very end space! but you wern't even in it to spot me!! lol

just think its a cool gadget to have, infact mums dynamique probably has one ill nick hers

ohh a dash dimmer, COOL! lol if i was to get that black pannel with both dials/switches on it, could i just plug it into mine and it would dim the dials, even although mine isnt a dynamique and doesnt have that feature as standard? as ive noticed ive got an extra connector behind that pannel so...

looking at pictures of all 172s and most dynamiques i notice they have an extra switch beside the headlight level switch was just wondering what it does? ive pointed it out in the pic

can see them getting away with saying ABS brakes but half leather? not like you dont notice it! Bodykit LOL

you sure it wasnt a 1.2 extreme with turinis they come in mondial or a very VERY simmilar colour and have the body tinted strips instead off colour coded

listen to that man ^ lowering is the best way to make a small engine car faster lol at the 135bhp 1.4 with the K&N and chip like has already been said 3-5bhp gains if the K&N is getting enough cold air if not then you'll be losing power. wheels defo need changed but if you like them then...

i prefer the phase3 front end, but its personal preference i like the more rounded bubbly look which usually looks girly but suits the valver wings.
