my mate was once coming up to a roundabout extremely quick one night with a bike flying up in the lane beside him and suddenly blood went everywhere, he thought he had hit the biker, turned out the biker had went through a deer!! lucky he was ok, his bike was a write off and the deer was pretty...
lol no it wont.
i just chopped the flanges off my 172 cat and welded them on the end of the actual cat box its self, it just fits and no more. used that for mot time
car has been off the road for a year and just recently back on, its pulling to the left under hard braking, recently had brand new discs and pads all round, front caliper sliders cleaned and re greased, 4 brand new tyres, full suspension geometry setup and camber bolts.
still doing it after all...
it can be fitted without the wings, how good though depends on how good your bodyshop is!
to do it properly though you need wings which means you also need sideskirts, and if your being picky the arch liners too
funny enough no im not and she sat beside me and watched me type that and laughed, she knows where she stands when it comes to the ph1, it was here first and will be here after her.
na can use your current subframe, i just ment undo the top suspension bolts, un do the subframe bolts and remove the full lot in one and swap onto your car.
sensor directly after the airbox, unplug the connector from it, take it out a blast and enjoy much more power under 2k, with quicker spool up and more smoke lol
i like getting into mine when ive been using the 172 for a few days, makes you a lazy driver though, the GT's have about 185lbft @ 2000rpm from memory and i rarely ever go above 2000rpm even when making decent pace!
Think adams above has a good chunk over 200lbft too its been mapped
LOL!!!
haha sorry its about all we have going for us is the torque and MPG!
suppose you do have 20% more than a 197 under 3k rpm its not all that bad!!
your spoiler is bonded onto the roof so you would probably need a lot of paint work done when yours is removed! thats if the boot lid is similar altho i think its different as you cant fit a GT spoiler onto a normal 197/200 iirc.
id get a set of coilovers and spacers
personally its probably what i would do these days if i was going back to lower powered mk2 clios, run the RS setup inc brakes., parts would be cheap ish especially from a brakers, i would probably just drop the top suspension bolts out and take the full subframe and swap it over to your car...
i can find out what speed im doing in each gear at a set RPM with my 6 speed diesel version of the clio 200 box if you want (cant remember the box code!)
