Looks good mate, quite a rare colour that any plans for it? Apex -60mm kit and clear side repeaters ;)

not that i know of

£50 for coil pack, mine was missfiring when idleing but was pulling fine, there may be other signs of it going too though

usually arround the 5 to 10 miles mark

nice, ive always prefered 172s to 182s just prefer the wheels and dont like the twin exhausts on the 182. if i ever get one it will be a late 172

thats a 1.4 8v though hes talking about a 1.2 8v

was just going to say that mine sits at halfway between 1k and 0 so im assuming 500rpm?!

yep you have seen R5 engines with 300BHP look at BBPT's 172 turbo its 280BHP i think and can be pushed further with a better gearbox iirc the R5 engine is very old and unreliable if not looked after. you say a 172 should have more power (standard) but a standard R5 GGT has what 120bhp?

seen a 172 cup in Stirling with reg playes with a Wales flag at the start of them, had a twin round back box on it seen it when i was on my driving lesson i drifted over lanes and nearly hit it on a roundabout because i was to busy looking for CS stickers on it :o :D anyone from here?

16v or 8v engine?

mine rubs the arch liners when you throw it into a corner -60mm on 15s so with any lowering at all on 18s id say arch liners must go!

LOL thats brilliant the jap guy that nearly gets run over by his own car. same here mate thats the reason i gave it up couldnt afford it! the cost of tyres and cost of repair when i smashed it! went electric for a year though and that was still just as fun and A LOT cheaper

my 1.2 16v idles at about 500rpm and it doesnt feel as smoth as it does when its cold and idles at say 600-1500rpm

yep toca or you can mod GTA to have clios

250bhp without the nos with they engine mods, i dont think so lol

thats the first mod id do, down suspension

thing with the renault engines is not every 172 makes the 172bhp or ps or what ever it is so you will get full fats that are faster than cups and cups that are faster than full fats etc (same driver, conditions etc) so its all down to driver really

ahh right maby not then i just thought with the doors being the same and people using MK1 172 interiors in their cars that they fitted maby needs a bit of modding

depends on the phase 1 model as some didnt have electric windows where all (i think) phase 2s did colours will be different likely yes

dont need a new car to have a new engine ;) my D4F 16v has done 118,000 miles in 3 years with only the coil pack failing. needed a new clutch at 116,000 but thats expected with this millage.

so its possible but fuk paying £100 for it!

balls! ive been getting a funny rattle too and the rotten egg smell from the cat! where can you get the sports cats and do you still pass an mot with them?

Exhaust, GDI 205bhp package and coilovers

^^^^^^ Sound Clips Needed! ^^^^^

i thought the trip computer was built into the dials though? so you juts needed to change the wiper stalk so you had the button on the end (just a thought) im not changing dials if i cant adjust the millage though, because it looks kinda dodgey when it comes to selling the car since im at...

hi, i might be able to get my hands on a set of the phase 3 dials, the one with the screen to replace the coolant temp and fuel guage. was just wondering if they are a straight swap for my dials ie. no extra wiring. also my car doesnt have a trip computer so would i just have to change the...

yep 259mm front vented disks

LOL ^ mine does that!

that could be why, constantly getting thrashed to hear the induction kit :o

yep a decat means removing the restrictive cat for a free flowing pipe :) i cant answer your question on sensors though, someone will
