went in to get an oil filter to do an oil change especially after yesterdays hard driving at the stirling meet and the filter i got instead of being a cylidner can was just a paper like filter, like a mini cylinder airfilter, does this sound right for the 1.2 16v engine? 02 plate btw cheers

lol brilliant! i know a guy who has 1 with an uno turbo engine, rapid isnt the word!

i just tell them were going for a blast down backroads at 90+mph and it doesnt make you sound to geeky, could class you as a chav tho lol

decats arn't illegal, and they wont make your insurance void if they are declaired. failing an MOT will tho, if a car can pass an mot with a decat then its fine.

haha thats awesome mate, dont know whats cooler the car or hte make beleive garage!! good work

colour looks awesome. dont like the bling wheels or yellow engine cover tho. take a good handling, fast car, make it handle worse with big wheels and slower with an open air filter & larger rolling radius wheels! still think it looks good tho, but id slam it on its arse

also forgot to say, BIG thanks to jock for taking the time to sort out maps for everyone, good work!

thot ali looked older than 11 tbh..

illegal plates my mate got £60 fine for the exact same plates as my old ones (thats why i changed) Plus technically it shouldnt pass an MOT with them but my mates did, i didnt have mine on for an MOT i miss my old ones still want to put them back on all the time!

nice pics mate, lot better than mine lol

aye it does that lol needin to get maself a good camera that was ma mates one a was using

sorry iain :( this is all ive got n its a crap pic.. ive got high res versions if anyone wants any

falkirks pish lol we'll never get parked beside each other like at stirling. come along to the next meet where ever it'll be tho!

doesnt feel like a go kart with the 16s on it, i like the look of the dynamique ones tho, i change over when i get bored lol

ive got turinis sitting in my hut, put the 15s on when im hammering it tho coz it handles better

im on apex -60mm kit, yeah noticed the camber when taking pics of your car, loved how fukin (or shud i say FK'in ;)) low it is! suits the wheels perfectly. seemed to handle brilliantly although looked a little bouncy, but maby mine looks like that too ive never seen mine in action from the...

182 is a £60 on the spot fine if you get stopped.. would look much cleaner with standard plates. looks good tho, where about you from

ahh right lol thats why i didnt bring the bird lol what suspension you got?

haha that was funny, never knew yours was a 1.6 16v mate thought it was a 1.2 16v as it didnt seem to be any faster than mine? what you done to it lol

thing sounded awesome when it passed me

giles were they not optional extras? although i cant find a pic of another mk1 172 with a sunroof! remember thinking it was weird at the time i noticed it

was thinking that myself lol ross, yeah probably the best pic i took wud have been better if you washed it ;)

Heres the pics that i took from the stirling meet, cameras crap but still ok. was a brilliant night, i went thru half a tank of petrol in one night was fun trying to keep up with the 2.0s apart from the fact that my passengers side front tyre was a bit low and every time i turned right it kept...

mine is a 1.2 16v but got the same 50 litre fuel tank as a 182, and it costs about £40-£45 to fill depending on petrol prices. i get about 300 miles to a tank sometimes more sometimes less

my mates got one some of the falkirk/stirling guys probably seen it, older shape one black with white wheels. straight it pulls and pulls on me but not as much as the 172s were on sunday, but corners im actually faster than him (his is standard)

that the white one with the big silly mental kit on it?

dont do it, quickfit use cheap shite replacement exhausts. ive noticed some of them look even more restrictive than standard (seen them fitted to both a saxo and mondeo get very thin at some parts go to Motorsport world in lanarkshire they have a custom exhaust centre, £170 for a stealth...

biggest b*****d of a jov ive done putting it thru the grommet, tbh i fitted my front comps, rear speakers and rest of the wiring in less time than it took to do that power wire lol

get a custom stealth system made, just looks like your standard oem one but a bit of a noise on full throttle etc and bit more performance

i got the "clicking" thing when pulling away its the engine moving, it makes a click when it cant move any further in the mount, or thats the only thing i can think about. i changed the mount yesterday with a 172 one and its much better now car no longer jumps out of gear when your coming upto...
