my local place charges £10 a corner plus £1 disposal of ur old tyres if you supply them which is quite expensive but think thats just because im supplying my own.

ok guys just fitted a set of 172 cup rear dampers to it, now before i say what i think about it keep in mind i was driving a 172 with a screwed rear damper and a completely screwed rear damper lol!! the difference is night and day to what it is before, but also feels much better than it did...

new style sells on ebay for £13 a couple of us got ours there

as has already been pointed out sports cats are only worth while on 172's (but even at that id get a decat :p) the 182 runs a really free flowing cat anyway so not really any gain to be had by having one.

awesome mate, those brakes just made my nipps go hard.

yeah i know they are much cheaper, i cant see why it wont fit but you never know. not really worth the high cost of a 182 manifold plus custom centre section if needed for the small gain over a 172 manifold though!

yes, the problem with the relocation kit is the inlet tract is too long so it looses torque, not a problem with a filter bolted on to the manifold/throttle body, but heatsoak then becomes a problem so a design like you posted above is better.

bigger gains to be had on a turbo car but yeah it will make a difference on a 172. id go for decat and swap it over at mot time but thats just me, if you would rather fit it and leave it go for a sportscat

a pannel filters a pannel filter to be honest on these cars as its not like they flow massive ammounts of air anyway. dont bother with ITG for it (ive got one in my 172 but doubt i could tell a difference between it or a pipercross or k&n etc) just go for a pipercross thats what i had in...

thats what i like to see some good old fasioned DIY!!! is it possible to use a 182 manifold or is it too long unless you make a full new centre section?

thats fuking awesome!!! can i buy them back now that ive saw that?? :( lol

i dont 40k without the pannel as i lost it when i had the relocation kit lol never had a problem. my alternator was a bit coroded but ok other than that lol on the other hand the relocation kit will lose you torque, even more than you would loose on a normal open induction kit. might not...

hehe its always the same as soon as its in and your used to power ull kick yourself for not doing headwork! should be awesome when its running mate, what you doing exhaust wise?

right now... 18, 0yrs ncb, years driving experiance, pass plus - £2400 3rd party in my name next month... 19, 1yrs ncb, 2 years driving experiance pass plus - £1200 fully comp in my name

id be interested in a carbon renault badge for the front, think these would sell well.

motorsport world isnt a million miles from you, worth the drive

needs a dynamique spoiler pronto! lol cheap mod (£40 or so) that will improve the back end 100x

first thing id do is get rid of they kumho ditch finder tyres lol i nearly wrapped my 1.2 16v about 20 times when i had them on! they are dangerous in the wet! lol other than that just needs slammed and it will look mint! insperation for you!! my old car.....

lol not really worth the hastle of being car-less and traveling if im not getting a decent power gain, looks like its into renault for cambelt, ohh the joys

its not all about bhp its drivability for me!

best going for custom on the 1.2 16v, i had a powerflow twin 3" on mine and it was awesome, was really loud and poppy especially when decated but you could get one that was just above standard. make sure if you use a custom place you find a decent dealer though as some are s**t some are good...

its all about the twin 3" action with the 1.2 16v!! think we all ran them on our 1.2 16v's!

not a fan at all the standard wheels look much better on it, id have got coilovers with the money for they wheels and slammed the thing about 90mm!

the wheelbarrow look!

what are you on about with these constant fault? ive had none in my years of mk2 clio ownership, had a couple of majour ones on my 1.2 16v but that was on 140k miles and was sorted cheaply anyway! my 172 has been 100% reliable

it needs atleast £3,000 to do it properly imo which isnt worth it considering you can have a mint 172 for 5k!! and a mk1 172 for even cheaper! by the time u get bumpers, skirts, wings, wheels, then paint on top of that inc spoiler and bump strips getting colour coded then you need a set of...

relocated induction kit like above will loose you low down torque, which is what your looking to gain! i put a full stainless steel system on mine with decat, ITG pannel filter and modified the airbox so it would flow more air and a bigger cold air feed and it was pretty quick for what it was...

i would really hope it does since its standard ;)

the cost of converting it to a replica is 2 years insurance for a young guy on the real thing anyway, its not really worth it!
