we invited them to a rolling road day, and said wed cover their expenses to attend so they ask for £900 to cover the costs to trailer a car, a night in a hotel and for fuel!!! yeah right!!

if you want "power" i use that term very catuiously!!! then get the 05 inlet manifold, its a MUCH better design

you need an adjustable spanner and a 16 or 17mm ring spanner remove top rubber caps place ring spanner on nut, and grip shock shaft with adjustable spanner undo and remove shock, very easy!!

easy to remove, 30min job, even if youre a dumbass

around £1K probably

get the degreaser out!!!! fookin right mess those bits are!!!!

you have to sand the surface perfectly flat before you polish it, takes hours by hand takes me 5hours using air tools and bench polishers!!!!

using an air polisher forgot to mention i also include fuel rail cover and alternator support arm in the price above too

£100 on exchange, i do all the hard work for you!!!! http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/Fredmrsclio/IMG_1053.jpg

itll lower the car about 3mm (seriously) and youll still have a stupid amount of bodyroll go for Apex or Eibach springs

its really easy!!! in total you have to undo 6bolts, and 4 nuts (plus 8 wheel bolts, only need to remove the front 2 wheels, you dont have to take the rears off!!) on and DONT jack the car on the sills on the front, they bend, use the main chassis legs under the car (look under the car...

it takes no more than 1hr 30min sorry but i think you idea of putting 182 springs on a 172 is VERY pointless

rear will take you 30min max undo the 2 18mm bolts on the bottom of the rear shocks (1 each side) jack up car, old springs will fall out put new springs in, ONE SIDE AT A TIME (a mate will have to gently lower the car whilst you hold the spring in place BE CAREFUL!!!!) put 18mm bolts...

tools needed trolley jack + axle stand various sockets 21, 19, 18, 17 various ring spanners 18mm and i think either 16 or 17mm (for the rear) the hardest part is getting the top caps off the struts, you may need an impact gun even if youre a complete numpty with the...

The plan was to make it road legal and take it to the ring (all cars MUST be road legal to go on track there) so we got it through the MOT, but havent had time to register it with the DVLA etc etc

NO NEED AT ALL FOR SPRING COMPRESSORS ON 172s FACT i charge £40, 1hr 30 (including fag break!!!) im in birmingham oh and get a new mechanic!!!!

nope youll have to cut and shut your old exhaust to fit

whats the fuss about??? theyre crap tyres anyway!!!!

either remove the engine, or drop the subframe to fit it!!!

we sell them for £75 each delivered

theyre virtually a standard car, stipped out with fancy suspension and exhaust cracked windscreens are normal on them (the chassis do flex, but dont be worried about it) the roof will be kinked in places, again normal i was offered a 1.8 16V one for £1500 (needed bodywork repairs)

see if you can get to drive it before you buy it too a blue printed engine "should" have some form of seal on it somewhere
