I thought that a 172 with a 182 manifold just meant that all you need is a 182 cat to make any 172 aftermarket exhaust fit?

I know you've said the side strips tie the black bits together, but i'd ditch them alltogether and fill/smooth the doors. Some kind of nice grill for the front maybe black mesh. Maybe some FK led rear lights? Quite pricey though.

I've got the V6 airbox JMS kit, although their rolling road test states a 10bhp gain, no-one on here has seen any real increase in power including me. An extra 10bhp would be noticeable, when I remapped mine with a RSTuner box it only gave me 6-8bhp and I noticed it straight away, an extra...

Shelby Cobra, 60s Mustang, DB6, Barracuda, Stingray, V8 Vantage..........speachless!

Lovely cars, Clios aint bad either.;) Mustangs look brutal, did you meet Marty McFly or the Doc (great scott!) Is that an old Aston in the background of the Merc/Lambo pic?

TBH whenever I have to program the Canon I have to get the manual out anyway, I can never remember which metering symbol means what.:S The advantage of studio is it's totally controlable, once i've set the camera up then thats pretty much it. Oh, and i'm going to be working for a soulless...

I've used a Canon 5D for ages now, but it looks like I might be getting a job at a makeover studio using their equipment, I forgot ask what they use i'm asuming it will be either Canon or Nikon. I'm thinking one DSLR is the same as another, i've never even held a Nikon DSLR are they as easy to...

There's nothing wrong with having a shiny car, although I can't be arsed with it. Always remember the're for driving not polishing.;)

Prefer this to the cup spoiler, nice and understated. Aways thought 197s & 200s don't look finished without a spoiler.

This might be the repost of all reposts and as old as the hills, but I did a quick search and found nothing about it. Just got an Email ad by Renault about this, i've never heard of it. Looks alright, decent amount of power for an oil burner...

Should be £235 for a year and my V5 says 194 G/KM.

Showing your cars on track for an ad seems to be a good way of promoting speed and handling, without getting into trouble with road safety groups and advertising regulators for condoning wreckless nobhead driving.

There's no meets planned at the moment but keep an eye on the Local Meetings, West Midlands section. If it was mine, i'd colour code the plastic bits, front & rear bumpers, wing mirrors etc, ph2 rear lights and get rid of the door strips and smooth it over, and get some clear or smoked side...

You won't f*ck the ecu, and yes it's worth it. I got so use to mine that I forgot what it was like before, so last summer I put the original map back on for an hour and I thought my car was broken. I'd forgotten that an RS clio has nothing before 5k rpm lol.

Affect your insurance? Depends if you tell them.;) Yes it will, any increase in power like cams, remap, throttle bodies will put it up. I've got one of the older ones and i've never had a problem, as long as you upload the correct maps for you car then it's safe, however if you upload the...

My first car was a 1.1 Blue Metro, that rattled like a shed and if you did 60mph the steering wheel vibrated so much it almost went invisible (i'm not exagerating). There are a few good lads in and around Cov and we often have meets. What are your plans for it?

The interior's nice, you can keep the rest of it. The front looks like a retarded cartoon character.

I found that it felt like I had lost a bit of torque/power lower down but gained a bit higher up. A few people on here have said the same, as above others have said it made no difference what so ever. I've got the JMS kit which is a V6 box, with a pipercross cylindrical filter, silicone hose...

Atleast the car sounded better than that f*cking music at the start, I nearly stopped watching.

Minty mint as always mate, i've never know anyone keep their car as spotless as you do. Looking good. Almost the polar opposite of how I treat my car.:o Loving the shot of you at the national meet in your aviators, from now on i'm calling you Mavrick.:cool:

MK1 escort, want!

If you get an ar*ehole copper he can do you for not displaying a valid tax disc even if it's taxed. It's usually down to ANPR as to whether you get pulled over, not sure how quickly the database gets updated.

I was walking my dog down the park one day and a bloke in his sixties rolled up in a brand new Impreza STI, he then let his Golden Retriever out the back. :approve: I was pleasently surprised as most of the old boys that walk thier dogs show up in people carriers. No age limit on owning...

Whilst checking various websites for work I came accross this.:S http://www.photographers.co.uk/html/photography-jobs.cfm?VacantWanted=W

I don't know whats crazier, the ones where the're blatently dead before they hit the ground, or the ones where they get thrown out, go sliding along the track, then get up and walk away like f*ck all's happened! They had some balls on 'em back then, crash and your dead! Mental vid!

What gets me is I could say 130 or 172bhp, if the car gets written off the're never going to be able to check it. Most insurance companies just ask if it's remapped or not, exact BHP figures will always be inacuracte unless they have their own rolling road. You'd think a modified car...

Sod it i'm just going to put 160bhp. (Wishfull thinking I know);)

Nope, the box will only let you type numbers.

It's for Greenlight and the box is only big enough to write a number in. I'm thinking of puting 168, isn't that was 172ps equates to? It is mental to ask for BHP at flywheel, whos going to know that without a dyno and the correct percentage loss to the wheels?
