    anybody ever fitted a motorbike exaust to the 172 ?

    It's just a metal tube with different dimensions to an OEM part. A custom exhaust place / welder should be able to make anything you like. A decent exhaust fabricator will be able to adjust the design to the noise that you want.

    Seen a 172, but is it worth the money?

    First tuning steps, induction kit

    SEARCH. Viper will cause you losses - most people say this anyway. V6 airbox = NOISE + a straight swap out for your Ph2 box. Can get an aftermarket filter to go in it later if you want to.

    Problems starting since relocating battery to the boot.

    What's the CCA rating of your engine ? I bet it's not being able to suck enough amps through that fuse. Halfords for instance shows this: AH Value: 52 Bench Charge: 6.0 Amps Dimensions (LxDxH): 207x175x153mm Guarantee: 5 Years Startup Power: 520 Amps Type: Silver Weight (kg): 12.73

    Fitting merc amg 17's to a clio

    You can do anything with enough money. However as it stands, your 4-stud hub will not allow a 5-hole wheel to be bolted to it.

    Changing form 16 to 15, best tyre size?

    WTF ?! Don't throw them at the box, bolt them to the hubs FFS !

    I f**king hate birds!!

    New GF needed.

    bit of a problem :/

    Pretty much no. There's nothing you can do. The point of immobilisers is that you cant just turn them off....... or they'd be as useful as a snoozebutton on a smoke alarm.

    My first car didn't have 17's or mudflaps with "Micra" written on them ? What's that got to do with anything !?

    Meet Brian at the Brentwood Post Office. Seriously though, there's plenty of benefits such as free access to Mace's MS Paint gallery.

    Also you've forgotten the standard Swansea mod for anything with 4 wheels - the chrome number plate surrounds. :dead:

    Just the one comment ? ;) OK .. Must .. be .. constructive ....: Have you secured the sub ? Otherwise the first time the car goes around a corner, it doesn't topple over and smash into the amp, especially as I think you've raised the C of G about 18 inches... Welcome, BTW !

    He'll also have to walk miles to the Postal Orifice as his car doesn't work.

    New Clio, Blank Canvas for a sound system, Suggestions?

    Me ? I'd put an Alpine HU in the dash .. some decent components in the doors/dash, and a subtle but punchy 10" active 'woofer in the boot.

    Crashed the Clio

    Oversteer is when the back steps out meaning the front should normally be on intended path... understeer is when the front steps out and [basically] you don't make the turn as tight as intended. Now, unless that's a LHD car, and you're in Europe, I'm still not seeing the full picture of the...

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    What camera have you got, Gally ? I think I focused on the daisies then moved it up to compose properly (rule of thirds, innit), but I cant really remember. Meta-data says: Exif for info: Camera Canon EOS 7D Exposure 0.02 sec (1/50) Aperture f/5.6 Focal Length 24 mm ISO Speed...

    VickyX in her bus-pass years ?

    Mmm .. she's kinda cute but she's only 8, Christopher. I prefer girls that can legally take me out of a pub and drive me home again. ;)
