it would be very close, but the civic has slightly bigger boots!

where did your gauge sit previosly?

cant remember the name off the top of my head, but its made by 3m. our bodyshop guys get thru tons of the stuff and we get it in 205s, but the last time the van came round he had some in 500ml bottles for bout £20. a 500ml would last one person a lifetme cos you wouldnt use it all the time, its...

i test drove a 225, unfortunately i wasnt very impressed, if you want that size of car the civic type r or new astra are better options.

to remove fine scraches/scuffs you need the 3m stuff the chipsaway guys use. i can get you some if you like (its available to trade only)

eka was driving the 172 bout 6 months ago, a suicidal badger ran out in front of the car, result; front bumper, rad, air con rad, brake pipes, under tray and a bent front crossmember. bloody animals!

welcome dude! buy a cliosport sticker and become a member!:D

maybe not cause a fire, it would need to be a very big leak. but it would smell quite bad if it got onto the manifold!:)

the cold start seems a bit over active in my opinion. the 172/182 seem to run a bit too rich for the first miniute in the morning. causing it to hesitate slightly, doesnt last long. i live with it.

wow!! i heard about this car but i didnt beleive it till now wow:D:o:D

i got a scorpion cat back, modification possible? is yours stainless? and how much dude? cheers,

EXIGE :D, just stay away from apache gunships and youll be fine;)

CHEERS!!!!!!!!!

NOT finished my sentence (cat walked on pc! and posted the thread!) as i was saying i wasnt amused, had to swap cogs quickly nearly put to shame. anyway all help gratefully received!!:D

after sacking the renaultsport ecu idea. and talking to a man who races the clio im after a 421 exhaust manifold and de-cat pipe. possibly a 182 manifold & downpipe anyone fitted this to a mk1 172? or anyone know where to get a stainless item? need more mid range (got caught in the wrong gear...

7701472353 bumper front £110.38 ex vat .................maybe? thats what i got one for 3 months ago! will have to check for you tomorrow, are you interested?

yep, i dont think aircraft style buckles are approved. i had to fit harnesses with normal type buckles to my mates kit car to get it to pass mot/sva. they were 4 point but with normal buckle. odd but looked ok. and worked well when he rolled it :D

the problem will be the harnesses, they would need to be e marked, but still may fail on the mounting points. if u re-fitted the original seatbelts it should pass. i think?

23k on my x plate 172! anyone done less??

:D!!! that works also mr sheep.. but... i used to do that till my misses had a slightly soft tyre, but couldnt get the cap off to put air in! she ended up putting on the spare, man was i in trouble!:)

theyll nick anything, round my way they like to take my (non chav) stainless steel valve caps, the good news is a tyre fitter friend of mine gave me a bag of 200! theyll get bored before i run out of caps;)

i found mine bout 14 months ago mk1 172 2001 model with 15k miles on it, today it rolled on to the big 20k !:D.. but it wasnt cheap. you get what you pay for

i didnt ask about dents, but some of the scratches were very deep and now they are no more!:D

£160, and he was here from 10am-4pm!!!! 6 hours! but he did have to re paint half the back bumper. as well as the other stuff.

chipsaway just been! top quality job, well impressed! the car looks like new :D he sorted the stonechips on the bonnet and some scratches on the rear bumper, and polished out all the other little marks around the car. if your in the northants area give him a call 07944 330811

if anyone is intersted i bought some oil in error its labeled as 5w40 fully synthetic but it doesnt meet all the requirements of that grade. its basically a semi, but would probably do well in a valver it cost me £11.50 for 5lts, you can have it for that if you like, pm me if interested. by...

i will add. i am currently using p-i on my 172 but ive only dropped the front by 15mm and the rear by 25mm. ive had no problems with them and handling/ride is basically unchanged (maybe the turn in is a little crisper). but i wouldnt go lower than that on the 172 with p-i

thats about it, they do a job, but dont taste as sweet :D
