mine hits the limiter EVERY time i drive it!!! 65000miles and still going!!!

yeah i use my big toe and the side of my foot muppets that cant drive will see 30K out of a clutch on a 172 but if you know how to drive proper (ie H+T) youll see double that on the std clutch

they do drop that low, but they sit on the bump stops!! i would avoid doing that TBH, unless you just want looks? itll be horrible to drive Im getting 2 rear setups off FK (one for Dansta and one for Yoz) because the rear of their cups are sitting high ill let you know a price (itll...

nowt wrong with low cars, if theyre set up properly the wont bottom out (much!!) they just crack front wings!!!

i take the filter off sometimes on track

put the power cable through the grommet that the bonnet release cable goes through (its behind the passenger strut tower) [Edited by Fred2001Dynamic on 01 December 2004 at 2:13am]

i do 20K a year on a proper low rider im on 290mm front and 260mm rear (winter higher setup!!!!)

good price, but they use the weber alpha stuff, which to be honnest is PAP!!!! BenR and GDI are based in cambridge (speak to them about a price) The kit Roamer does/is doing, fits all mk1 and mk2 172s (infact its easier on the mk1!!) Roamers kits are going "live" over the next few weeks...

Prima "claim" 240bhp with cams headwork + TBs, BUT they arent using trumpets, so i very much doubt that claim LOL!!!

Prima are a bit "Max Power" with their power claims!!! ROAMER is the man to speak to (he was the first in the UK to Throttle Body a 172) he is soon to be offering Throttle Body Kits (cheap too) his car is currently 212bhp (std head) (also its for sale at £11K)

yep it will

10mm??? you smoking crack!!!!!! im 40mm+ lower on the front and 50mm+ on the back measure from the centre of the wheel to the arch and let me know your measurements!!!!!!!!! im insulted edde!!!!! you called my car high, im off to cry!!!

STRUTH MATE!!!! "AH SKIP, IVE BASHED ME CAR!!!"

ive found when im doing 77mph on the clock, im actually only doing 70mph, but who cares???????

If you ask Cobra, they WILL remove all stiching (btw they have a sale on right now, ive just bought 2 buckets off them!!!) Theyre in Telford, you have to go to Cobra for the sale!

HELLO!!!!! This is perfect for what you want/need!!!!!!!!

ask Andy GDI, im not 100% sure

Spammy, Smt6 cant be used with throttle bodies, you have to go stand alone ECU for best results BUY ROAMERS Clio, its dam quick, and thats on a std head and cams itll be nearer 230bhp N/A with headwork and cams its had £4K spent doing the throttle body conversion, Including OMEX 500 ECU

Well there is a 172 with Throttle Bodies for sale at the moment (MK2) 212bhp its Fully stripped, but still has the factory Sat Nav, 2 Cobra buckets £11grand PM Roamer all its needs is a cage, and coilovers

leave em off, dont wanna smack em up in the snow/ice!!!!

start putting load on the engine ie 3rd at 30mph and boot it!!!! you wont break it, or do it and harm!!!!!!!!

never checked, had mine done in gloss black, cant see how this affects performance or desirability??? they never ask??? i guess they just assume silver to be the norm for alloy wheels

ok, but ill rephrase that for you!!! ...a good motorsport mechanic might use string, but they wont win any races!!! Geoff, HUNTER is the best gear you can get!!!! so thats a DAM good price!!!!!!

Yeah, but the 1998-2001 are exactly the same!!! and theres a haynes for those, cos i have it!!!!! (cheers Roamer!!!)

£90 a fooking wheel!!!!! christ even £60 is criminal!!!! Youve been ripped off!!! if id seen this post sooner, i could of done them for you for around £160 for all 4!!!! http://www.lap-tab.co.ukwww.lap-tab.co.uk

Northampton Motorsport tel 01604 766624 and ask for Roger Fowle hes expensive, but knows his sh*t!!!! £94 for a set up geoff there are SO MANY different tracking/alingment places out there ranging from your £25 quickfits upto you £100 + motorsport companys youd be amazed at how far from...

the only place that can do mine is Northampton Motorsport, and i still have to remove the rear bumper!!!!!! (and drive 50miles to get there, oh and they charge £94 bloody quid!!) now i just guess the tracking and do it myself trial and error

My mate did work for BMW as a Service Manager, he used to write "BAC" on top of the service sheet if the customer was a tw*t, then the Monkeys out back THRASHED the car!!!! BAC = Blokes A Cnut!!!! 3 x E36 M3s written off He eventually got sacked after the police rang the Dealership saying...

SOD THE ENGINE COVER!!! Too much weight!! AFAIK the 315bhp V6 (done by Jenvey) had stock internals, but ill double check

im sure an FRP would sound awesome with Throttle Bodies!!!! (itd go like LeeM on the way to buy p**n too!!!!)
