erm and care to explain why a dynamique would have less roll than an expression?!
it would have been exactly the same apart from the seats holding you better.
i was possitive it could be removed from the top once the inlet manifold was removed but i was wrong lol and it 100% has to come from the bottom.
subframe removal is easy enough
i wouldnt be taking the car past 7250rpm too much to be honest, iirc renaultsport say the engine WILL Fail after prolonged use above that figure.
cant remember if it was the hydrolic lifters or valve springs or something else but there is deffo something that'll fail.
cant see the point in...
if its a k-tec relocated induction kit no chance, mine was well down on power and torque with one fitted.
i cant remember my exact figure but i beleive it was around 86bhp on my old one?
as for keeping up with a 1.6 8v vtr, no chance on a straight.
For anyone interested or if anyone knows anyone interested

awesome example, well looked after, selling due to moving to australia
location was Carron Dam in Carron Valley. brilliant drive there and back, twisty roads 172's tyres were squeeling all the way there and back and mr2 was sideways at some points lol
MR2 is an awesome example, he traveled for hours to view/buy it but hes emegrating to australia with Gibson172...
went out to take some pics of my mates Toyota MR2 Rev3 Turbo that hes selling and took a few of the clio and a wee video while we were there!
nothing fancy would have washed it if i knew id be taking pics of it lol
And finally a wee video of my 172 with K-Tec Recessed 2.5"...
not from a handling point of view, 15"s are best for that.
awesome wheels, will look sweet when lowered, going to need to go atleast 40mm though i think!
2003 172 with an ITG filter and crappy blowing patern part exhaust - run at falkland
173bhp @ the fly
now running a k-tec 2.5" recessed system, Decat & 182 manifold
