[Beef-Mc]

[Reyes]

My first post ever that mentions that

 

[jonny mac]

jonny.

 

[MikeyK18]

umm you 2 both say different things? 172 ff or not? lol yeh monaco blue is ace!

the ph2 is FF, its not a cup, everything is in a ph2 172

but its not called a ff cause theres the 172 and the 172 cup

 

[Dickie_172_cup]

No it's not, FF means cup packed, neither the 172 or 172 cup are cup "packed"

It's so people could tell the difference beween cup packed (182FF) and none cup packed 182s (182)

took more pics tonight with my civic next to it. shall get them cropped and up asap.

 

[jonny mac]

shall be lowered soon etc alot of mods on the list to be done however pay off loan first tbh.

car's sitting next to my civic which is still for sale

jonny.

waiting on parts to arrive to give it a huge and i mean HUGE service, new brakes, full service under bonnet, new exhaust, list goes on lol spending alot!!

cheers
jonny.

 

[mini-valver]

LOL at the Magnex! Looks a tidy example otherwise mate, farking love Monaco!

 

[Alastair.]

im loving those alloys, sumin differnt, really suits it wel, imagine it lowerd, would look lurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeelyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Lookin good mate , enjoy the car . The sidelights do look very orange though .

Get yourself some leds , they match the xenons alot better .

 

[jonny mac]

yeh mate gonna go to the shop in aberdeen on monday where i got the white led ones for my civic, want white fog light bulbs aswell or hid look bulbs or something to get me away from the orange in the fog lights

well i like the wheels and how they look on the car and i've imagined it lowered however this is a performance car so i'm gonna be buying smaller lightweight wheels. the big kahn wheels i'll throw up for sale soon. i like them but i dont like how the car drives with big wheels and not that i've driven it with light wheels i can imagine the 17's will be holding back performance aswell.

cheers
jonny.

 

[Tigger]

I got a free set of "blue" sidelight bulbs with my main beam Osram bulbs - both give a crisp white light

 

[jonny mac]

just bought a k&n pannel filter brand new from ebay for £40

taking the car to the garage tomorow hopefully for a major service, new brakes all round, if i get my backbox tonight fit that, change all engine oils, all filters, basically a beast of a service.

still waiting to sell my civic before i can change insurance documents lol!!!!

 

[VeinAST]

Old car was a minter!!

Nice buy though!

 

[jonny mac]

cheers

got plans most likely oz ultralegerra's in graphite grey 16's and a cf bonnet and some nice tints and lowerage should see the car looking good

shall do a build up thread once it's all fully servicved and on the road

 

[Mickb]

yup renault plastic is the most expensive in the world look after that backbox now

its a minter mate looking foward to seeing it about again :approve:

 

[Brasseye]

looks a nice FF in that colour !!

 

[jonny mac]

aye will look after it haha gonna stick it on this saturday i think if i have time to get the car to the workshop. might just wait and get powerflow to fit it correctly and adjust the hangers if needed while i get a decat made up.

it's raining so no updates and i kdont know if any parts arrived today as the delivery address is my work and i've been at college today so will keep updates tho.

 

[jonny mac]

no more big 17's sold them to a guy with a 1.2 clio billabong who's 15 inch renault wheels i got plus cash my way.

didnt make money off him tbh as he got the full set of kahn wheel nuts, all the spacers plus hub rings and 4 mint kahn wheels with 4 great cond falkens, only took his wheels plus wheel nuts and locking nuts plus 100 quid off him

meh i'm chuffed i shifted the 17s and have a set of wheels to run about on till i can afford my new wheels i want

also bought some paint to change the colour of them, cant decide white or black now tho or gunmetal grey like the civic was.

[Eckascliovalver]

acceleration will be alot better now buddy , when can i expect to see the new car about

 

[jonny mac]

oh it's been on the road since thursday i forgot to say. i was gonna fire you a text about the trumpet anyway

all serviced and OH MY GOD!! what a nightmare that oil filter was to change haha

absolutely love the car it's great.

am i right in thinking they have a change up light yeh?

 

[jonny mac]

also picked up a megane splitter today for the front finding out about decat pipe and few other things hehe

shall start a build up thread one night i'm not doing anything.

yeah they have a shift light (little green gear stick iirc) not that i ever get that high in the rev range to see it

 

[jonny mac]

lol well as you may know it's been raining the last 3 days solid except today however i was busy, not really had a change to drive the car fast so...

however i hav worked out it feels a bit restricted so off to turrif tyres in aberdeenshire to get a powerflow decat made up

oh and your exhaust backbox rattles the axle like fook, tried so many different ways of fitting so gonna get them to try weld a different maybe higher bend on the axle or something??

however i absolutely love the car !!!!!!

 

[Eckascliovalver]

get them to cut an weld the hangers maybe mate, does it look better than the 6x4? magnex systems hand low due to the wieght of the bloody things and a dodgy hanger set up imo, im sure they will sort it out mine was perfect when they done it

 

[jonny mac]

yeh the exhaust looks s**t hot now cheers

i just needed an exhaust backbox to get rid of the 6x4 i had! might get them to make me a backbox up one that's small and looks good rather than a massive backbox with a small tip like i have atm.

need to meet up for a photoshoot once i get my lowering springs and new wheels (all when i can afford haha)
