The best phase 1 172?

[cK]

I'm scrapping the aircon. Mines running 195bhp @ the mo. It will be well above 200bhp when finished and it'll sound the dogs bollox. Can't wait!

Will give you car a french kiss when i'm down there, if it's still there.

 

[Dave138]

i have to say ben_p's, cos it is the fastest near standard mk1 172

fast as fooooook

 

[stoddie]

should be running well over 200 mate - he reckons mine will be close to 210.

oi no tongues allowed!

 

[ChrisCurr]

Wow Friends great response.

I'm luvving Clarkies and Carbon Copies - Both Awesome!

Will post some pic's of mine shortly.

 

[Dave138]

whats a hybrid btw?

 

[Day]

Fubar, carboncopy, Day! Theres a few

Merci

It's not silver but thanks for the vote!

 

[Christopher]

whats a hybrid btw?

When you're talking 172's...

A bastardised RS car.

Bits of both Ph1 and Ph2.

The Mk1 boys do it best, transplanting F7R's into previously F7P Valvers etc etc...

 

[Dave138]

i thought hybrid was to do with the engie or larger mods, like a hybrid valver...a valver with a willy engine is it not?

im confused.. :S

 

[Day]

Yes Hybrid is a term used exclusively by Mk1 16V/Williams owners...

I prefer the term mongrel

 

[Christopher]

haha!

<< knowsit sir.

 

[chris_m182]

clarkie's aka dean's old 172 gets my vote lovely car

 

[Tucks]

SuperfastDan's 172 is probably my fave
all looking mint on this thread though.

Ye, cos they are of an animal than the mk2's!!!

 

[Ali]

Lol ^^

Stoddie or Chris's i'd say!

Yep...And Day's/Dans.

 

[TomS]

Fubar, Day, Mr Carbon and Acrebo all have sweet MK1 172's

 

[Tyson-182]

Some really awesome cars there. Phase 1's front bumper looks so aggressive!!

Tyson.

 

[Clarkie172]

mine obviously

 

[Clarkie172]

lol only joking. Chris-yours is my favourite!

 

[W3STY]

Just a couple of mine

 

[Day]

mine obviously

Yeah MSA182's old Mk1 172 is the best :approve:

 

[Guy]

if your trying to make the best ph1.. get the exhaust cut into the bumper instead of just 'sticking' it underneath like most have.

id say carbon copys is one of the best

 

[ChrisE]

Ye Carbon copys is probably the best example ive seen in photo!

 

[Tom_E]

cheers for posting them pics john!

im still around when work permits....

cars down at GDI at the mo, getting a few bits and pieces done - ap racing 4 pots, glafer discs, larger single throttle body, inlet matched, cams, omex ecu and colour coding in the engine bay.....

will see who's is the best after that lot is on!

Stoddie,

saw your motor up at gdi whilst i was up there on sat.

all i can say is mint. very yellow!

Wonder where Chris got the idea for the wheels from

Anyhow Chris are they Anthracite, or darker, cos mine are darker. Look black in some lights.
