Hi all, I'm fitting buckets to my 172 Mk1 on Saturday and would like to know what to expect in terms of warning lights appearing. As the buckets have no side airbags how do i bypass the warning light? Also i will be changing the steering wheel soon enough and would like to know if the...

the column has a master spline. so nothing can be done that end. get your car laser-tracked and they should set your steering up as well as your tracking (camber is not adjustable on your car) should solve it for you. normally about £30-£40.

do you throw water on them after a hefty session?! nice work

top pics Dave! i gotta know, did the VAG engined VW beat that 355?! i hope so!

Carbon Copy copy. ;)

ill post em for ya the image gallery you have to do yourself. go to the images section.

maybe it was a joke... on the other hand, and more likely... maybe he is full of excrement.

yeah, definately the coil pack. they go weekly. so much in fact i saw an ad on eBay for them, it said "stock up while you can" lol

proper job. looks great.

^^lol @ fred.

tasty. I hit a pothole in the week. the result - New front shock, replace bent wishbone. sh*tter Jon. Hope it's gets sorted soon!

how much does this sort of job cost ben? for both stages?

yeah, i get that. even when warm.

what a joker. For a start Greddy don't have a lot of internal parts for Euro cars at present. aPexi don't make suspension components for Euro cars. I doubt it has Brembo 4 pots. And there is no chance of a 6 speed box. Very nice b*llsh*t there dude. ......and 302?...my sides are...

works fine. hellishly quick that is!! pmsl!

works fine.

they would look good imo. obviously it would need to be on coilovers!

K-Tec are doing a deal on them at the mo. That's where i'm getting mine from. Plus we get discount!

not just 172 Mk2's All F4R engines do this. Due to fueling restrictions to meet emissions and the fact the VVT system isn't the most sofisticated. High octane fuel (optimax, bp ultimate etc) never seems to help my idle. it still shakes the car in traffic...to be honest i quite like it. lol

fuel rail cover Fred. Awkward b*stard to get to that oil filter is.

Lunner is right. I have Pagid fast road pads on standard Brembo discs on my Mk1 172. No matter how hard they get used, i never get an amount of fade that knocks my confidence. If your are getting grooved discs for looks, fair play. but they are really not worth the money for the 172 imo.

that looks fooking amazing!!

niiiice Rich! yeah, the Turinis are mine now. Definately going to get an anthracite refurb. H&R first though. ps. You have PM!0 Chris

Try Specialist Renault Breakers in Accrington. Or pm j3ned, as i don't have the number to hand. Is it these that you're looking for? My 172.

^^cheers fella. It's been sat on my drive all week after hitting a pothole and damaging the front shock and wishbone. Just got it fixed yesterday so i'm pleased i can drive it properly again.

GDI demo car is EVIL!

sweet! not seen one close up in the metal yet. looks great

^^yeah, i sprayed my 2.0 badges the same colour as my old wheels. they feel left out now. gonna look into some prices for the refurb.

i'm liking that! still not too sure as to whether i do it or not yet though. thanks for the comments too.
