cheers mate ill watch what im doing once im passed and driving it! wish i had got it from there too!

best thing you can do with a 1.2 is lower it and upgrade the brakes then if u want get a pannel filter and full s/s catback exhaust and decat. even if i spent £1000 on my engine i doubt i could get it round a tight backroad any faster than i can now that its lowered :)

full kit mate springs and dampers £280 from k-tec getting a bit of rubbing from the back but only at one side so going to check that out later to sort it.

Fitted my Apex -60mm kit yesterday so washed it and took some pics today. it looks nice and low even although id like the front a little lower. but the best part is the handling hammering it into tight corners at like 65mph and it just grips! if your hammering it round a corner and hit a...

especially for a renault!

to be honest if ive not got the wiring there im just going to buy the actualy lights and put them in, just finishes the car off better couldnt care if they work or not lol obviously its a bonus if they do!

LOL brilliant!

i cant see how it could be cheaper to drop in a 2.0 over a 1.6 considering a 2.0 costs more to buy and you need to upgrade the brakes and possibly suspension too

so if you have a space for a front fog light fuse in your fuse box you should be fully wired?

1 new coil pack to fix a dodgey idle is the only problem its had in 120,000 miles over 3 years

not into all this bodykit carryon but will look nice when slammed like in your photoshop. please take they badges off the grill though!

black bit on back bumper is colour coded too. never knew they got snow in france!

my lights are dimming big style when using my electric windows and they are going really slow, does it with the engine on or off so dont know what it is, probably both battery and alternator fuked in my case!

i was told it was the Rolling Radius that kills the smaller engines, not sure about the bigger ones.

cant drive mate

yep, i know what im like go and buy myself some 2.0 turbo jap thing and id wrap it round a lamp post the day i got it. possibly a golf GTi to start with, but nothing faster

to be honest even if i won the lottery i wouldnt buy anything like an F430 or SLR, somthing like a 1.6 for a year thats still resonably nippy then after a year get a 2.0 then work your way up.

Open the boot, remove the 2 screws at each side and 2 in the middle with the Torx screw driver from your took kit. pull old spoiler off, unclip connector to brake light and pull off washer tube from the spoiler. connect the brake light cable and washer tube to the new spoiler. sit the...

Williams is out of the question mate untill your atleast 18 with 1yrs ncb but even at that your talking near enough £3,000! VTR i know a couple of people at 17 driving them but they get ripped off mega style too! there is quite a lot of us here with 1.2 16v Dynamiques for first cars at 17...

An air filter is a consumable item so the way I see it is your just changing it for a better, longer lasting item. just like you wouldnt declair upgraded wiper blades or headlight bulbs!

engine restriction idea is good in someways but bad in others, i know i would rather be in a 172 with a 18yr old who knows about cars rather than someone who doesnt have a clue how a car will and can react but just likes to go fast (such as my dad who has been driving for 20 years but doesnt...

get clear side repeaters like said above mate, little tip though get the genuine renault ones, i got ones from K-Tec and they're cheap and nastly and even although they say they are for a clio i needed to mod them with a stanley to fit because they were for a megane. they also let in water...

Al's old Dynamique had anthracite (trophy colour) MK2 172 wheels, looked good id keep them silver though mate, think they look best that way

my blower fan has got REALLY REALLY noisy for some reason and seems to be cutting out for a second or 2 every once in a while, think its needing replaced. anyone know where about behind the dash it is and how to get to it? also how much will a new fan cost assuming thats all thats needing replaced

what sort of millage would one for £295 have on it matt

get 1 mate im able to keep up with my dads evo now that ive got 1 fitted to my 1.2 16v even my dad said he should have saved the money and just got a clio with 1 of these instead of the evo :clown: i hear the clio cup racers use them too ;)

u sure it needs a rebuild? mine is at 120,000 and still fine, i know freds is at about 80,000 and has done loads of track days and is still fine the more miles they do the faster they go!

lower it on 16s and they look just right, 17s look to big on them. most 172/182 owners buy the car because of the handling and performance not just beacuse it has fancy bumpers and seats, so why waste it with bigger wheels?

if its a 1.2 16v you have get an induction kit with a k-tec relocation kit, if not get a pannel filter for your standard air box.

how mean does that thing look with the intercooler :D :D cant wait to see this thing go when its finished
