Lumia 930 pre ordered for me next!

My mpg has gone up as i dont need to slow down as much now haha!

ride isn't usually too bad on coilovers either! my DCi80 on Apex -60mm is horrid lol!

That looks awesome good work!

definitely blue smoke? my new one was down on power and giving out s**t loads of black smoke on full throttle, was a coked up EGR valve had blocked the inlet pipe with all the black slude of the day meaning it was getting starved of air.

Details? im on the lookout for one!

sell it and buy a 197 or 200 or if insurance is an issue a 1.2 TCE

tbh id rather do a gearbox any day than a 182 manifold its a ***** of a job, if I was doing it again id just take the engine out!

it made 173bhp standard lol!

gained nearly 20hp and 15lbft, 20lbft midrange when fitted with matched inlets!

most worth while mod I done probably on par with an RS Tuner, only worth it if you can do it yourself though!

my old standard 200 was neck and neck with a VXR nurb from 0- well into triple figures, nothing in it at all, one minute the clio was pulling the next minute the corsa only difference ive found with 200 vs 172/182 is the mk2 you can short shift at say 6k and still make plenty progress, the 200...

because Tuning boxes just ramp up fuel pressure and massively reduce the life of the high pressure pump!, if I wanted to do that I would rather put sand in my fuel tank, its massively cheaper

no point in tuning boxes they cant affect boost. my map at RS Tuning was £450 from memory

my W reg had shift light and alloy bonnet, bonnet was the best bit about the car so bloddy light!

wouldn't go that far lol! day to day driving it wasn't much quicker than the GT DCI was!! only when you drove like your hair was on fire. and where it handled better, on your typical UK backroad the GT was just as fast as it didn't skip and jump about! but in keeping with the theme, it was...

speedo sensor on the gearbox on a cup as it doesn't have ABS

depreciation proof, probably if you buy the right one. investment, I wouldn't think so unless your planning on keeping it 30yrs!

I swapped my 10 month old GT DCI for a brand new 200 when my GT was getting serviced. 2 different types of cars, massive massive difference in economy my GT would do 50mpg without trying where my 200 would do 25 without trying. can you justify doubling your fuel bill, if you can go for it, If...

we had placed an order on a fiesta ST and had to cancel it as my mrs pranged the car we were ment to be trading in, its all sorted out now but the ST has got far to common (for good reason of course) and around here is driven by plonkers going flat out everywhere so not going to re order one. I...

I would choose a 172 based purely on the exhaust, 182 exhausts are a pain and never sit right!

shot dampers id bet how old are they? my last set of 182 cup ones failed after 15k miles 1yr (running sportline springs)

just swap the engines over and use your current injectors, make sure you number them so they go in the new engine in the same order. use your current pump if its working fine as you know its good

ahh that's a shame! looked a cracker in the pics too, but at that top money you expect perfect! I gave up looking for a clean one and bought a cheap heap that was straight and went to town on it, ended up just being one thing after another and I gave up on it and sold it on, spent a whack on it...

there was one on ebay for £3500 with 39k, sat nav and apparently full history looked mega clean too! I was tempted by it!

cheers for the comments guys, not really planning anything else for it just keep it running, its cost me less than its worth so far so don't really want to put anymore cash into it, might do a DIY wheel refurb to remove the kerb marks on a few of them but that's about it really. Looking for...

attacked the headlights today, Before... After...

so the reason the ford fiesta st is outselling the clio is purely because ford have a bigger market share? not because they are offering the customers what they want? at a good price? with the prospect of better residuals?

not as well as the fiesta ST!
