    all 4 engine mounts changed - still movement

    changed all 4 engine mounts on my 172 on tuesday with new genuine ones, but there still seems to be a bit of movement when slowing down at junctions or roundabouts as if the engine has chugged a bit or if you give it full throttle at low revs to go for a gap at a roundabout theres movement. i...

    Striaght line speed.?

    In my experiance from having a play with few uk wrx's they have plenty grip and power to pull them out the bends but the clio appears to be able to corner just as quick if not quicker, and straight line there isnt much in it, impreza slightly quicker on the newer models. my mate sold his 172...

    182 FF or basic ish 197?

    better build quality would do it for me, not that their built that great but much better than a 172/182 anyway!

    improving cold air feeds on standard ph2 172

    since refitting my acustic valve i could swear the car apears to have gained torque midrange, but its possibly all in my head, its getting better mpg with it fitted too! ill be leaving it on

    RS Clio 2.0 16v Inlet Manifold

    depends how bad the original one is, some gain up to 10bhp iirc but some gain hardly anything, what year is the car? less gains to be had if it has the RS stamped manifold

    Exhaust or Lowered?

    coilovered cars dont handle as well as standard on your average uk roads if they are really low so depends how low you were thinking? (thats my experiance with FK's never used the likes of H&R)

    Ive got £3k to spend!

    agree with that ^ the clio is a drivers car, starlet is more of a toy tbh. they are reliable when modded properly, but some people just up the boost and dont do any other mods to support it!

    Striaght line speed.?

    but neither is a glanza! they are limited to 110ish iirc too? not hard to remove though. my mate had a standard gtt, lighter than a glanza and no boost limiter in first and second gear like the glanza and my standard 172 was much faster, starlets are cheap-ish to tune though to a certain...
