ive got 182 manifold, decat, k-tec stealth, itg pannel filter and it pulls like a train compaired to how it was standard. removed the inlet manifold today ready to send off to be matched and getting an RSTuner from fastchip to map it

yep dogbone mount, if it uses the same one as the 1.2 16v then only around the £30 mark max i think? my dci is on 141k and its needing one too!

its just fast road use and odd track day now and then so more than up to the job then? decent pads and disks are awesome as is just fancy something a bit bigger and more flash on top of the extra braking power

anyone got any experiance with these on a 172/182? looking at the 2 piece blue ones like the pic on their home page, they look the tits lol!! http://www.hispecmotorsport.co.uk/ what pads are worth using with them, ive always stuck to EBC but open to any recomendations?

thats the way it should have sat from the factory imo!! lupo is awesome, i love them!

as said wouldnt bother with stop watch lol, i timed 60-110 on mine and it was 10 seconds

ive got the ultra performance recessed one on my 172 and its sweet as f**k! best sounding system ive ever heard

mine is a little animal lol my mate couldnt beleive how quick it was for 65bhp! ive actually got a feeling mine has been mapped lol i dont remeber them being this quick when test driving the first 1! need to get it RR'd my turbo was loud when boost pipe was blown, quiet now just hear a little...

i recognise it either that or theres 1 thats 1 letter out on the reg plate going about stirling where you from?

2k kick in the dci FTW my 172 kicks much better than the standard 1s ive driven

replacement hose fitted tonight wee thing goes really well for what it is! the low down torque is amazing! it feels quicker low down than my 172 but ive not driven that in a month so im probably in for a shock haha! now has a little problem where at full throttle the little orange light under...

lol yeah it really is easy but if your not confident doing it then a garage will probably do it for 2hrs labour! so your looking £60-£80 max

can you use 182 suspension on a 172 i thought the bolt spacing was different?

you wont need spring compressors for coilovers as your not taking the standard shocks apart just removing and fitting the new ready assembled ones

2 hour job max! can probably be done in an hour! start with the rear its easier, unbolt the rear damper from the top (inside the boot, then jack it up to take the weight of the car and remove the bottom bolts of the damper so the damper comes off. keep jacking it up untill the springs can be...

I Love: Driving the 172 in general, the grip, the pace, THE NOISE! I Hate: every time i see a fast car im in the dci!!!!

super glued all the hose up untill i get a replacement and the thing feels rapid now haha that must have been the problem!! that must be why i thought it was silly that people said they were on par or even faster with 1.2 16v, the 1.2 felt much quicker compaired to it but now its better!

its just a pipe to replace the catalitic convertor (basically a big restrictive spounge!) so it allows the exhaust gasses to flow quicker giving more power its illegal because your car wont pass an emitions test for your mot.

been that fed up just went out at 1:30am in the rain and started taking it to bits haha, found a broken boost pipe, was split where one of the sensors goes in, unpluged the sensor and problem got worse, so im assuming thats whats causing it! im on the case now!

i know but i refuse to give renault any money to look at my car lol i can't get to the bottom of this its getting to me, tried to overtake a slow moving merc sprinter van tonight on a dual carridge way, half way past he floored it and left me for dust i had to pull back in lol

standard is more than up to the job of track work

erm its not to bad to fit i started it at 10pm after work and finished it early hours of morning, its just a fidly job, trial and error trying to get subframe low enough to get old manifold out and new one in etc

Night and day, best mod ive done paired with the decat. the extra torque low down is awesome pulls like a train now

wee video of my 172 doing a 40-130mph run on a private airfield. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nR8chNPnWg

i like the black engine cover to hide the RenaultSport inlet manifold, very stelth, looks almost like a 1.2.........

f**k, you only live once, at 18 i went from a 1.2 dynamique to a 172, best thing i ever done, i payed £2500 a year 3rd party too, dropped at 19 to £1200 fully comp. in all honesty ive never driven a car like the 172, doesnt matter what it is, nothing ive came across yet compairs in fun factor...

why does it bottom with prolines? you got no dampers? lol

well to sum it up you cant have lower suspension with a soft ride it would just bottom out and bounce about!

looks like teh wiring for the fog lights

the reinforced members running up the chassis at each side of the exhaust is were i always use.
