anyone got any engine pics, want to see how similar it is to the n/a version i can see my birds dynamique (my old black one) running 150bhp with it for a laugh!
awesome mate, sorry i went offline on msn the other day, didnt manage to get time to put the 15s on mine but will do soon!
i was itching from day one to put sportlines on mine, had only had it a month when i changed them. next up after a new exhaust is a set of 15s tho deffo as 16s are balls!
nice one mate how you finding the handling compaired to the old 1.4? im still getting used to mine, still not liking 16" wheels but dont want to go to 15s without coilovers.
my 02 1.2 dynamique is on 140k i used to rack up so many miles in that going for pointless drives at weird times in the morning etc just to hear the powerflow and have fun with coilovers, i miss the car so much now that its back to standard!!!!
172 i dont do to many miles in. its only on 26k
looks awesome i miss my slammed dynamique i ripped 2 splitters off in 2 months lol i couldnt get into my drive, into my works carpark, over potholes, obviously no speedbumps lol but it was all part of the fun
went for something subtle with the 172 tho with the sportlines lol
is the engine bassed on a d4f 1.2 16v or is it a different engine? if it is then it could be a nice little power boost for a mk2, my 82bhp 1.2 16v was quite nippy with 100bhp and possibly 120ish with a remap and exhaust it would be quite a fun little car.
will be good in the twingo since its...
back needs to go a bit lower, my rear was about twice as low as that lol couldnt see the top of my tyre on my 15s!! and that was on 195/45/15 tyres!!
i had FK 5mm wheel spacers on mine with the standard wheels and it looked much better, wheels sat perfect in the arches
i spent a bit on mine had a lightned and ballanced bottom end, re profiled cam etc for it full exhaust, decat, filter.
at the end of the day DONT touch the engine performance wise you'll get little gains yes you could do all the above plus headwork etc but you'll only get 100bhp at the VERY...
my 1.2 used to do this when i had it, cleaned the caliper sliders and worked the pistons back and forward a couple of times cleaning them and it seemed to sort it.
im on my 3rd set of F1 GSD3's in a year went thru 4 on my 1.2 so bought another 4 and then when my PE2s on my 172 were done i went for F1's and prefer them to the PE2's that were on it!
not really true tbh, if i set my dampers to soft on my coilovers they were no harsher than my 172 on sportlines, or set it to the hardest setting and it didnt budge!
looks good guys shame i was working :(:(
need to get myself along to a meet not been to one in the 172 yet.
when did that c**t alan get a R27? fuker kept that quiet lol
getting cams and zorst for the 172 hopefully soon so ill get along to one in the future!
