    Meshing Mk2 172 grills

    i could do it for you then send it, but i dont think you would want to pay what we charge. its not too hard work, just cutting out the "slats" sanding them down, then meshing the behind.

    Just Tested A Valver!!!

    the change in note? hell yeah, it really comes on cam quite nicely. you should hear mine....developing the chip so ignition settings and the rev limit are higher....@ 7500rpm, it really sounds nice! i should record it.

    172 Cup is mine!

    come on capt...dont ruin his new toy!! i would love a cup, of course i would have to have the xenon headlamps, but thats it.....well the alcantara is nice too.....especially on the door trims. aircon is nice here too, its about 32deg c average. ABS is quite useful here too, its quite bumpy...

    more VVT ponderings..

    a stobe would give you ignition timing not that of the cam. but i dont really understand what your saying? when the vvt is activated, it actually retards the cam? what possible use could this be, if the cam was advanced (relatively) at idle, then it would be very rough and would warm up...

    well, since you/its thought that it comes on @ 1200rpm....then when would you use below 1200rpm? especially on a standing start.... try a rolling start in 3rd from 1000rpm?

    more VVT ponderings..

    ok, got you first time round. but what i was meaning that you could effectively use the better torque with the cam not advanced (thoeretically) and see if the diffrent timing with the vvt off makes any diff....kinda lost myself there. anyway, could we use the vvt to our advantage in any...

    172 Oil Change

    basically, use whatever grade the handbook says to use. The get some oil of that grade you like...wether it be mobil 1, magnatec, elf, or halfords. The let the car cool down a little, till you can put you hand on top of the engine and its mildly warm. -put a big oil tray (or any container...

    172 Oil Change

    i would change the filter, it would only take an extra 5 mins. once youve done it youll think it was stupidly easy.

    172 Oil Change

    just buy the required amount of the same grade oil as it says in the handbook....empty engine, then fillup again. semi of fully synth, up to you.

    Hey BenR

    weve been workin with superchips in the UK and they alter the serial perograms after we have given them data on how the engine is running. But yeah, we just got word here of the renault sport ecu.....dunno how easy it is to tailor that though.

    2.3k engine still seems tight

    bsic know sensor. i think (correct meif im wrong) the engine is basically searching for the most advance it can run at any given rpm. when pinking or knock occur, it can hear it and retards the ignition....al very wuicky of course, dunno what the sample rate is though. fuel like optimax with a...

    Mk2 172’s - Anyone else have problems starting theirs i

    its all down to the new emmisions laws. Euo 3 has the same requirements as euro 2, however, it doesnt have the euro 2s 5 min warmup time, so the cat is ineffective cold....and it runs rough trying to keep emissionslow till the cat is hot enough to work properly.... thats all , nothing to worry...
