^^^ Good call with the crappy old car with nothing but a seat in it. There where some cracking examples of shitboxes stripped out at oulton today. If your after an RS Clio then either a Cup or Ph1 172.

I'm with theduck Strip it comletely bare and you'll have a reasonably nippy car. Remap from ktec is supposed to be good for 10bhp but i've seen no dyno results to prove this. Decat and exahust system would also improve breathing.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Excellent news. Providing it runs what is left to do to get it back on the road.

Thats awsome Ryan. Nice to see it running properly at last.

Thanks, That is kind of reply I was after.

Tbh it's not as much of a problem on a cup. Can get it done cheap because there is no AC. Providing it's not a CC model.

Epic. Get some sort of induction kit aswell so you can heard the Vtec more, i'm sure Christopher will recommend a suitable one, he's are Vtec guru.

It's looking likely they'll be the next inusrance company i'll use. If they're cheap and like mods then they'll do for me. Unlike Directline who are cheap but don't allow mods atall :( Wost insurance company in the world tbh.

I simply asked if they felt completely different to drive or just faster and better handling. Tbh if you have never driven one its a perfectly reasonable question to me after all they are essentially the same car, if you picked the average person off the street and put a trophy next to a 1.2...

Not too much to worry about. Your selling up soon anyway arn't you.

I've heard that the pugs get good lift off oversteer. I'd love to drive a rallye.

Yes tbh Chris. I've never driven one and wondered if they actually feel like a different car or just a faster and better handling version of the same car.

Look Lovely.

Are you definately after a 182 then? Just how much better to drive is the the trophy from a 1.2 then? does it feel like a competely different car?

True. However the higher the number the more power usually applies. I.e. a 325i is 3.0 as is the 330i and the 335i but the higher the end two numbers the greater the power. There are some anomalies i.e. the 20d engine is more powerful than the 20i engine, the 23d engine in more powerful...

I didn't realise it was a 328i :o LSD? Tasty :approve:

What engine is in it btw? 3.0?

What

Looks like a cracking car to cover 2K a month in. Love it.

Balls to that i'd get the SS stealth.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Hope all goes well Jord. What are you going to do if you give up on the f4r then? Burn it?

+1 I'd put them back on.

Love it. Looks so much meaner without the fog lights.

Fantastic. What are they out of? Evo?

Wasn't this car just suposed to be a run around? Fair play to you though mate. You just can't resist modding.

Surely they could just limit the top speed. Mind you those VAG engines are very torquey so its all good.

Looks like great fun. Why 4000rpm rev limiter?

I'm green with envy tbh.

You have mastered the Aperture mode in the last pic of your gf epic tbh. I'd love to go to the ring, it looks like a dream land. Did you have any problems on track, heard that there are a fair few bumps there. What sort of speeds did the 172 get up to then mate?

Very very Nice.
