thats lush!

im with joe on that, you think a 172 would be cheap motoring, until you go back to one and realise its not really, at least if you want to keep it up to a high standard

mates 1.2 16v has threw a belt, so im taking the head off it tomorrow to inspect the valves and take it from there, never whipped the head off one before, assuming its pretty easy but anything to look out for? im assuming its pretty easy, inlet manifold off, top engine mount off, jack engine...

yes you can

id remove the headlights and flaps! not into the smoked rear lights either

its over 6yrs old, so it should in theory have 6 stamps in the book inc both belts and brake fluid, however that would be overkill, id be happy with a few stamps and both belts

does your car sound supercharged? mine did when the aux belt idler started going.

i change when its on in the ph1, not because im to retarded and need a light to tell me when to change, but because thats when i feel its best to change, in my ph2 i rarely ever saw it as i always found it best to change before it came on. also my ph1 has a raised limiter so my shift light...

who advertises a car for TOP coin and gives a breif description like that?

so am i right in thinking if i find out what offset the wheels pictured are (for arguments sake ET45) i would want ET35?

im an OEM kinda guy and have never owned a set of aftermarket wheels, however im looking for something for the GT as 1. its under wheeled and 2. its needing tyres soon! ive pretty much set myself on OZ superleggeras as i seen this and like it... what i dont understand is all the ins and outs...

im lost these days with all this FF talk lol, would that be a 200 with cup suspension or just a non cup 200 and the cup pack would need added on top of that?

is this guy for real?

i see

service history is important, must have receipts for a cambelt change, if it doesnt, you want to knock yourself off £250 or there abouts, it should be due its second belt change now @ 10yrs old. should pull well from just under 2000rpm, its hardly fast but should pull strong all the way to...

quite interested in these, might be a nice alternative to a diesel! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9kL0P15pAU

that looks quite cool! appears the TCE uses the same FMIC as the DCi106

nice! i was following a guy last winter when it was snowing, streets were empty and he was getting the thing sideways everywhere! lol

either that or he has a better job than you with more free time? lol

just what you want from a road car that does a few track days a year!

somthing i must add! when i had my little dci65 (pictured above) it was sooo slow i didnt even try and drive the thing fast thats why i used to average well over 60mpg every day! and that was bloddy town driving! when i got my 100 and eventually mapped it, it had twice the power so i used to...

keeping in mind we own a driving school, i think our pass rate would fall substantially if we only gave people gearbox lessons, i doubt the examiners would be equally impressed by our pupils using heel and toe to blip on the downshift ;)

as above best mod ive done to my ph1 so far, massive mid range gain on a car that was already pretty handy mid range even compaired to my previous 188!, and that got a good gain from a 182 manifold so im going to make that my next performance mod. as yourself i just want to build my ph1 so its...

i just done it out of curiosity, its just a number, as long as your happy. people see i spent all that money for not much power and think it was a waste, to me it was worth it as it pulled harder and had so much nicer drivability,

nothing wrong with the gearbox, its gearbox lessons people need

my mate had the same issue, they sent him a new centre section and booked a courier to pick up the old one no quibbles, however he had only owned it for a few weeks so they never asked for any proof of ownership etc

yeah they would do the job, maby overkill if you dont want to bother going to low though... this is my old dci on -60mm apex

was done on the scottish RR day from here with 30 odd other cars, all putting out what you would expect an RS clio to put out, in the region of 165-175 depending on 172 or 182, i stuck mine on and it put out 173bhp lol! i did chuck a bottle of octaine booster in lol!! was always a quick car from...

haha i wouldnt say im the man, ive just spent a s**t loads on different setups. i think these are of a saxo but same idea(pic at bottom), on the left is the new coilover if you look you will see it has a threaded bit that the spring sits on, this gives you your height adjustment, so you can go...

remap!!!! best bang for buck mod! wouldnt bother with just springs, it kills the dampers after a couple of months and anything decent to replace them with costs a bomb ie bilstein or koni
