I miss my black dynamique all the time! summer months with the windows down, decated powerflow exhaust pop pop bang bang! and your arse sitting inches from the ground, those were the days!
Cracking car matey, suits the non cup pack wheels in that colour actually!
not too far from me, im near stirling. check the meets section and get yourself along, were having a Rolling Road day on the 9th of feburary!
cant imagine how that handles after feeling the difference in mine between 15's and 16's! felt like a monster truck on 16s and that was still slammed 90mm lol
id give u a hand no problem pal, how is it for room behind the lights on the 197, was simple on his corsa, he got a kit designed for the car so was simple...
Remove old bulb,
replace with new bulb,
then the connector that plugs into the back of the bulb gets plugged into the xenon "box thing"...
yeah corsa has PIAA Platinum sidelights (same as my clio) and an HID Kit (just fitted it for him the day before!) and funny enough the HID kit took 10 minutes to fit, sidelights were 45 minutes lol sidelights are a bumper, wing and headlight off job on the ones with facelift headlights!!!
ohh aye forgot to say the pics were taken up in carron valley only 5 minutes from stirling, the roards are awesome, maby worth a meet in the summer get some good pics etc, especially up at carron dam.
not really got any other decent pictures of it
not in front wheel drive form its not :rasp:
quote=Renault_Boy01;3577754]lol..this may sound random but i've heard it before from other people..did you find the 1.2 more fun to drive ?
its a weird one, the 172 is much more of an adreniline (spelling!) rush as its much quicker and still...
cheers, its a nice example, only mods are a cup splitter and Eibach Sportlines.
wheels need a refurb not sure if ill get them done or just get anthracite turinis!
Since it was snowing me and a mate thought we would go out for some pics in the snow, pics arnt the best as ive not got a decent camera, hopefully a DSLR soon tho!
First up was a quick wash before we headed up to the snowy hills! (was pretty pointless as the cars were covered in crap by the...
Think its going to be the GDI just cant decide between the Stealth or recessed!! i think the recessed looks awesome but if i want to sell the car standard its not ideal! but no plans for selling any time soon so suppose thats ok!
any reviews on it?
it already has lol its been off twice and been back under warranty already had a new backbox and a new centre section! its got a patern part centre section, not a genuine one and its even worse, doesnt fit properly etc!!
really not sure what i want, gibson172 has a custom from motorsport world...
Looking for some good pics both closeup and from distance of the new style renault sport badges on 172/182's as ive just ordered mine and want to make sure i get it perfect when placing it!
cheers
i used to get pulled constantly in my dynamique with decated stainless system and coilovers and its brilliant now that i can just drive where i need to go with no hastle in the 172! doesnt help that i look about 15 lol
tbh your not more likely to get pulled by the police in a 172 than you are in a 1.2, its not like its a subaru or something that sticks out, most people cant even tell the difference. i had mine for 5 months and my mum didnt even question it untill she had a shot of it because it felt powerfull...
my exhaust is blowing again, had enough so its time for a change so what to get?!
ive got about £400 to spend for a cat back, going to order it tomorrow hopefully!
it cant be overly loud as they days for me are passed lol
i was looking at the k-tec stealth mk2 but heard they sound crap...
na its well out the way but even when you put the cables through it its still well sealed, ive got my sub power cable running through it and its pretty thich!
it took me about an hour to get it through its a bit of a b*****d but u'll get there eventually LOL!
not sure about the 172 but when i had my 1.2 i had the polly bushes in the lower gearbox mount for 10,000 hard miles and the top mounts were fine after that (and they had done 140k!)
yep theres a big load of them they all sit in a lay-by sometimes untill 3-4am with their VTR's and Zetec-S fiestas couple of MG ZR's and the funny part is they ALL have they cheap ebay headlight bulbs, sorry xenons! as soon as a fast car goes past they all race out the lay-by after it!
got a fair few here too most of which try to race me, i dont bother as ive got better things to do, and then i still hear the storys about how that guy apparently "smoked" me as the local "car crew" like to call it these days about here
i had been driving for about 6 months when i got mine, i understood the basic do's and dont's when driving quickly, you dont lift off in a bend u dont brake in a bend you dont drive quick in the wet etc and by sticking to they rules i was able to drive quick enough to have plenty fun without...
because theirs to many imature people out there that think because they have a fast car means all year round whatever the condition they can "race"
all im saying is dont tar us all with the same brush, if you screw the head u'll be fine. i knew fine well being only insured 3rd party if i...
