[Anotherblue16v]

Few pics of my 172 and my mates saxo vts. Thought we were going to get moved on from this site as usual but someone from a nearby house actually came out and offered to buy my car!

[pecan]

Socialising with the enemy!

 

[SOHROB]

They had a bit of a fight on the way home,naturally the saxo came out on top

 

[Leeshez]

Wow very shiney indeed

[Anotherblue16v]

Thanks for the positive remarks, your saxo dosnt look bad either mate, but i cant vote it as best looking 172 for you, maybe close second. haha. As for coming out on top, not to sure about that pal.

 

[SOHROB]

shut up,go change your tyres

 

[Anotherblue16v]

No need to get personal mate, just think when i do change the slicks i'll even more grip and you get used to seeing the clios rear end. I'll take up SMOKING as a hobby.

 

[SOHROB]

ive quit smoking renaults,it costs to much

 

[Ali]

Very Very Nice. The Ali seal of approval!

Love the 172, i think your mates Saxo would look better if the wheels were black though.

 

[SOHROB]

the wheels werent my first choice and i got them cheap,needed wheels to clear the brakes and they needed to be light

 

[Anotherblue16v]

Think the black wheels would look pretty good, less hassle keeping them clean
but it does look good as it is and the brakes are very impressive!. Cant decide whether to go the refurb to dark grey wheels on mine

 

[SOHROB]

keep them as they are

 

[Timmay]

looking good - prefer the clio to the sax tho...

 

[Anotherblue16v]

silver they shall stay then, just have to buy some better wheel cleaner.

 

[SOHROB]

get some coilovers next,just seen a fibreglass bonnet going cheap for the chavso

 

[Anotherblue16v]

Leave it clear if you buy it just for a laugh. Coilovers sound good but also there is the issue of £££££££££££££££

 

[SOHROB]

it comes with a coating so i think i will,it will be a **** then.I'll be training tonight around 8 if you wanna meet ?

 

[Djw Dave]

Whats in the paxo?? And what brakes are them? cossie calipers?

 

[SOHROB]

its just a vts with enclosed ik,supersprint manifold,decat,custom exhaust.The brakes are 295 mm alcon 4 pots from the racing puma and its dropped 30 mm on pugsport cup car adjustable coilovers with eibach springs

 

[SOHROB]

future plans are jenvey t/b,some wilder cams but not decided which yet and the mapping at chipwizards,1.4 xsi box with rosejointed linkages,grp n topmounts,lower brace,bilstein rear dampers,21mm torsion bar

 

[Anotherblue16v]

Not much planned then! i want coilovers, fr and rr drilled discs, itg induction,
decat, and then remap at that place in Manchester you were on about. As for gym can you make 7.30 as i've got stuff to do at 9.

 

[SOHROB]

i'll let you know,forgot to add headwork,new flywheel and lsd to the list

 

[GarethM]

very nice pics looking good

 

[Djw Dave]

Very nice mate, i want them stoppers!!!

 

[SOHROB]

I wouldnt bother,they work well but they have no dust seals so need rebuilding once a year,genuine pads are around £100 and alcon discs £3-400

 

[Tyson-182]

Both looking good mate!

Like the look or Turini's on a black 172!
