loosen rear exhaust hanger, prop exhaust up as high as you can (so its touching the rubber bumper surround as it will drop a bit when you tightnen everything up and let go) tighten up the rear hanger and if its still sitting to the right then do as the guys above have said

ill decide last minute if the weathers looking good ill go, just doin what i done last year tho, £40 in the dci boost down early sunday morning get there for 9ish day at the show then spank back up the road, f**k taking the 172 on a trip that long lol

thats not genuine renault its an OE patern part, thats the same centre section my 172 got put on it under warranty by the Toyota dealership i bought it from, lasted longer than the genuine renault one and even with the shitty tiny pipework my car still made 173bhp at the scottish RR day lol

since i turned 17 5 years ago i have spent, buying and modifying clios..... £28,000 LOL!!! on top of that ive spent £7,000 on insurance and probably twice that on fuel! you could probably say ive spent around 50k since passing my test on buying, modifying, servicing, and everything...

are people seriously moaning because you done this on a public road? lol idiots

your trying to hard, fail. however i was pulled the other day for pulling away from a junction "too fast" ohh really

ordere with hids direct yesterday afternoon about 3ish and just received an email saying they will be here today between 2:10pm and 3:10pm, impressive!!

im bringing the ph1 172 just insured it today thought i was going to have to come and rip up the road in the DC-AYE anyone fancy meeting at stirling services and heading to showcase to meet everyone else?

na 1.5's are fine, the 1.9s are problematic! my last one was on 160k odd and as far as i could see was still all original (gearbox, turbo etc) had no service history either lol mine is on just over 90k now bought it just under 70k

i do a s**t load of miles with work and because i have the cheap to run reliable car my mates are forever pinching it to go down south to pick up car parts etc

aw f**k here we go again

cant wait to see another popped out diff circlip thread then!

yeah ive not got much experiance with anything other than k-tec systems but they just have hangers that go around the box and bolt up so you can move them, im assuming the others are the same!

most have a telescopic (sp) section that can be adjusted in and out to fit both cars

my mums cars never been over 60mph lol

20k so far on my high boost remap on my 100 with no worries! apparently renault gearbox's are w**k but ive only had 1 fail in the 420,000 miles my mk2's have done and the one that failed had done 150k on the gearbox oil lol

might have washed it before you took a pic!

it was working when removed from the car about 2 years ago, ill have a look it was in my 172 manifold i dont know if i gave that back to joe or not tho when i sold the car

its the better sounding out of my 2 engines but not exactly great lol,

id say possibly lambda, i think i have a spare cutting about somewhere you could try

my last one was like that ones on my dci are fine though i always thought it would be something to do with people leaning on it when working on it

ordered a 6000k set from hid's direct, if ill maby punt them on and get 4300k's but i thought id give them a go!

i find it quite funny that i have read mpg as a possitive in this thread its the main reason i dont use it daily lol

awesome very rare to find a non RS with cruise control, my mrs 1.6 16v dynamique has it, wish my 100 did!!

cheers for the info ally!

its cross country pace, the grip, the brakes, the 5k kick, and most of all the ph1 character!

my last dci 65 done 160,000 odd miles and never let me down apart from a gearbox going (turned out the oil wasnt replaced at 72k like it should have been!) my dci 100 remaped to 130bhp does 55mpg no problem daily and will easily do 60mpg+ on the motorway if i want it to! £35 a year road tax...

to give you an idea i paid.... £2500 3rd party @ 18 with 0ncb £1500 fully comp @ 19 with 1yrs ncb £1000 fully comp @ 20 with 2yrs ncb £750 fully comp @ 21 with 3yrs ncb now
