Show me your 172 Cups Pllllleeeease

[sambo]

Hi There

At the moment i own a ford Racing Puma and im thinking about selling it and buying a 172 CUP. With the money left over i want to mod it but very subtley.

Could people who have modded there 172s please post some pictures. I dont meen full fat body kits i just meen

- Dropped on coilovers

- Bigger Brakes

- Front Splitters

- Bucket Seats

- New Exhaust systems etc

Also how hard is it to get more power out of the clios, what would it take to get 200 bhp out of one.

Many Thanks

Sam

Why are you thinking of selling up Sam?

There won't be any FRP's left on ZSOC soon!!

Good choice on the Clio though

- Dropped on coilovers - The choice is yours, GAZ, Leda, H&R. Ranging from around £450 for the former to around £1.2 k for the latter

- Bigger Brakes - Not really required, Uprated discs and pads will suffice

- Front Splitters - They come as standard and will be more than sufficient once lowered. Anything bigger WILL die.

- Bucket Seats - Again, the choice is yours. Check Demon Tweeks as members get a discount. Or you could go for the Trophy Recaros.

- New Exhaust systems etc - Try a YozzaSport Ragnotti. Not cheap but based on the Clio Cup unit.

Also how hard is it to get more power out of the clios, what would it take to get 200 bhp out of one. - 200bhp should be achievable with a 182 manifold, decat, exhaust, matched inlet, cams and remap. Probably looking at about 1500-2000 for that lot.

Many Thanks

Sam

[Gaz_]

[jamesy]

[lawrence]

[lawrence]

oh knackers now im wanting one again

you and me both matey

 

[Gaz_]

gt gaz your cup is by far the best looking cup on here, job well done. loving those seats too, i like the black cobra ones more but still very nice

cheers, the seats were brought off here, as new for 350 all in, so it aint all bad. I'd love some proper buckets, but not sure if its too hardcore

 

[Peperami]

you and me both matey

get one, you know it makes sense...

 

[lawrence]

ah mate i would but the mrs wouldnt permit it, combined with moving out too ive got to prioritise stuff now

 

[Gaz_]

i can hear the rattles already.......

 

[Revels]

You need pics of Leos cup!!!

 

[DanCup]

mine!

only had an engine bay tidy up and viper!

 

[jamesy]

how many different colours did the cup come in?

 

[Gaz_]

love the plate, but can't justify the cost

 

[Gaz_]

how many different colours did the cup come in?

mondial blue and a few in silver, thats it

 

[DanCup]

love the plate, but can't justify the cost

mine came with the car!!

 

[jamesy]

is it just the one shade of blue and are the silver worth much more for being that bit more rare?

 

[DanCup]

yea just the one shade of blue, think the silver cost slighty more due to the fact there newer than the orignal cups, also think they may have climate control

 

[Gaz_]

yep, think thats about right, all silver cups as far as i know have CC too. the blue is gorgeous, look at all the pics and it looks different shades, looks awsome in the sun, real depth to it!!!

mine came with the car!!

lucky b*****d

 

[jamesy]

question is turbo my valver or get a cup i have so many ideas for it and there is a lot available for the mk2 now???

 

[kully]

turbo ur valver sounds better

 

[jamesy]

will certainly be quicker and more fun not to mention more individual problem is the depreciation of money spent?

 

[Peperami]

My cup...

Erm, just a few more mods than in the pics now, pics of the beast to follow soon... hehe

and agree on the paint, awesome colour.

 

[jamesy]
