    Cup Spoiler Fitting....?

    Why not inline crimp some spade connectors to the new light and also the old light so they ca be easily swapped over? Just make sure they are properly insulated.

    Silver 172 heading from cas to garforth (maybe Ben Leach)

    Yes mate, it was me. My car was looking as poo as ever Jamie, standard wheels full size plate and filthy. I actulally thought you were a police car. I was seriously shifting untill I saw a set of blue lights come over the brow of the hill which appeared to be flashing. Turns out it was your...

    Clio 182 Vs Saxo VTS Sanremo

    From the drag shots it is obvious the Clio has a t least 2 people on board but I can only see one in the Paxo. Weight advantage?

    Increase performance?

    What is the difference between this and the sort of comment Fred posts, normally along the lines of 'Ring me you gay, I don't do texts' LOL. John is simply saying he is there to advise, as Fred and many others normally do. From my experience of 2modified, if the product doens't fit the need...

    Rear wheel bearings - Pain in the arse or OK ?

    Last time I tried pressing a bearing in, I got impatient while my dad turned the press on so I tried it on a vice. I wish I hadn't as I ended up splitting the vice. He wasn't happy. Woops

    Pagani Zonda - Edinburgh Waverley station

    My apologies Kenny. I'm taking the old girl in for a new exhaust next week. I hope you managed to catch your train. I'm sure Charlie at Prospeed can improve on the sound with a single 182 style exit on the left. While I'm having the exhaust fitted, I'm picking up my cup spoiler, turinis and...

    Rear wheel bearings - Pain in the arse or OK ?

    Thank goodness my old boy has a press at work. Saves a fortune. As Gav says, if the discs are OK, just buy new bearings.

    172 induction kit

    Should do. The inlet elbow was slightly different on the Ph-Crap-interior but it should still fit.

    2 Questions. How did you pull the wheelie off? How/why is the rear of the blue one boarded off, V6 stylee? Ben

    Would you declare trophy wheels on a 182?

    Don't you work for UKI Jamie? Surely there is someone there who you could call upon, off the record of course.

    Cup attacked!

    It was funny watching him think he could get away. Thankfully I used to be a sprinter at national level so soon caught the little gypsy. It was my old car which was good, if it was the Clio, I wouldn't have walked away. I didn't really have much choice. He had three scroaty side kicks...

    First Post...

    There is a standard airbox which you can switch back to. This can be as effective as a Viper BMC with a couple of choice mods. Keep checking Ebay/For sale as they crop up from time to time. Alternatively, try Matt Black or Clio Spares. My silicone elbow can be seen in this pic' as can the...

    I know this has been done to death but....

    I suppose it gives you confidence in Nicks products as he doesn't need to falsify results using a dodgy RR. I don't know why you have spent all that money on the car. You obviously know about L.A.D and know that just by having the car within a 5 mile radius of their facilities will increase...

    Cup attacked!

    I had some little fuck3r do this to me in a 5hithole not far from where I live about 12 months ago. He was in a church yard about 20ft from a sweeping curve leading onto a long straight bit of 60mph single carriageway. All I heard was a crash where the egg he threw hit the a pillar. I didn't...

    I know this has been done to death but....

    I personally wouldnt bother with the BMC/Viper either. I have pretty much the same spec as your car barring the inlet and plenham mods (a job for the future) and find it is much more driveable than when I first got it. I'm suprised by the low RR figures you achieved based on the mods you have...

    Baffles on way out, need advice...

    LOL. You know the issue Gav, the fecker has dropped again. Thanks Lam7r, just give me a shout when things are sorted. Ben

    Baffles on way out, need advice...

    Not much use in terms of curing the baffles issue but I don't suppose I could be cheeky and ask either of you if I could have your second Magnex backbox mount when you have done. The one that fits between the renault mount and the chassis rail. Obviously your palm would be crossed with silver.

    Which Induction Kit For 182

    Buy a PiperX panel for approx £25, a 1m length of induction hose from Andy at Venair and a 90 degree slicone elbow from Venair/Team Think for approx' £25. Remove the original inlet elbow and vent the breather pipe. Remove the induction hose from behind the headlight along with the acoustic...

    Picked up my mates 172 cup yesterday!

    They're supposed to loosen up nicely at about 30k IIRC.

    How does my insurance renewal sound?

    It's covered through Flux now. I tried Elephant last month and they were about £1050 without mods and wouldn't quote online with. Greenlight quoted £748 I think online but I didn't get chance over the phone. £697 is cheaper than I anticipated. Ben

    How does my insurance renewal sound?

    After Tesco taking the liberty of re-insuring my car without giving me prior notice, I went on a mission for a new insurer yesterday. My car is a 51 plate 172 with Trophy spoiler, splitter, Cup Turinis, lowered on Apex -40's, Strut brace, Custom stainless with Janspeed sports cat and remap...

    Attaching an Ipod to a standard 172 headunit???

    Can it be done? The system is the standard phase 2 172 headunit which has the 6 cd changer.

    Back from Hillpower

    I'd like to know about this as well as I already have a remap but it isn't going to account for the ported inlet work.

    ***Pic' Request*** 172 backbox mount

    Good lad. I didn't spot that one. Cheers Gaz Ben

    ***Pic' Request*** 172 backbox mount

    So what is the purpose of the plate then as it just sounds like a spacer? That has confused the matter of the right mount a little now. I thought the plate was some kind of secondary mount you added.

    2 pics of my 182 and Matts corsa

    Good old Tesco underground car park in Garforth. I spent many a day working down there when it was Safeways. Sad or what?
