Anyone got any pics of Russ@gasperformance's old Euro 172?
Had a look through his posts but all his images are just showing as red crosses.
Anyone got any other pics?
Cheers
Always loved the euro look, however I am prepared for the haters. Picked these up relatively cheap for what they are so I'm going to give them a go.
Don't worry though, (and no vultures PM'ing me for them) I am keeping the turinis incase it all goes pear shaped and I don't like these.
The...
Trying to collect them all together as I didn't have my camera, just my phone :dapprove:, and seeing as others have done it I thought why not.
It was the Monaco Blue 172 on the Meguiars Top 25 stand..
Post them in here please if you have any, good or bad..
Thanks :D
After some advice really on creating a new website.
Its probably quite advanced, as its a brand new website needing a search facility etc. for a new company/idea I've been having.
The idea is that the site will be a place to buy & sell certain products online, in the same way that sites like...
Was gonna stick this in the other thread Jamie made, but thought it would get overlooked so started another.
Took some quick pics today in the sunlight just to show the level of correction Jamie has achieved on the 172, the pics speak for themselves...
Small update really, as I had the day off today, I decided to drop the rear end a little bit more, its now as low as it can go on these springs...
I had 5 minutes spare aswell so grabbed a couple of pics
All thats left to do before FCS is fit the splitter I've got...
Was a nice day so polished the car and fitted my new cup spoiler, then nipped out in the sun for some pics :)
Thinking of fitting these I've got sat in my garage soon, or may sell them on for the right price if anyones interested:
Comments welcome...
Just had some work done on my car after it got a massive dent in the bonnet and a crack in the bumper.
Went to pick the car up and the repair looked good but it was going dark when I picked it up so couldn't check it over properly. I've had work done at this bodyshop before and its always...

2nd pic, can't work it out. I'm thinking it was that flip...
Just got a few pictures of my refurbished Turini's, camera battery had died so these are from my phone, need to get some better ones soon.
Had them done at the wheel specialist in Manchester, in the brightest silver they did. They did an ace job and the wheels look 10000x better now, got new...
Looking at refurbing my wheels in the coming week before getting my new tyres on. Looking for an aerosol/spray in silver that is really bright and will stand out.
Done a search but to no avial. Anyone used any they can recommend before?
Cheers
Gave the car a quick wash down today so thought I'd grab a couple of photos on the way out.
New RS badge..
My favourite pic of the lot..
Comments welcome,
Thanks
Just seen you going towards the A666 mate. You wouldn't have seen me though as I was in my mates Yaris.
Car looked ace, never seen it in the flesh before
Basically, last night, or at least we think it was last night, someone has tredi to break into my gf's car. Looks like the have stuck a screwdriver in the lock and now the little flap thing is jammed open and the lock is a little bent inwards. They've also scratched some of the paint around the...
Not sure if it has been posted before but I would 100% recommend anyone to follow the steps in this guide to reduce their car insurance.
I think everyone should have a go regardless of whether their insurance is due or not, as the savings you could make, make it worth the switch.

Although not very good ones.... Need to take some with my proper camera but I never have it with me so all I ever seem to post up are crappy phone pics.
As I said they are crap quality, MAY get some better ones tommorow remember to take my camera out and get a minute between...
Having my turinis refurbed tommorow but I'm having a dilemma. I can't decide whether to have them Silver or Anthracite.
I have included pics of both (sorry for stealing them if they're yours), at the moment they are anthracite but I just can't decide...
Silver...
Anthracite...
OK, I've done a search and found hundreds of threads about knocking noises etc. (well it is a french car website lol) but not found the info I'm looking for.
Basically my car has just recently developed a small knocking noise when going over speedbumps etc. It seems to be coming from the front...
Basically, on of my rear bearings on the 172 has gone and its making a right fvckin racket as soon as I go over about 50mph, whining so loud its almost unbearable. Need to sort it asap but I'm just wondering the best/cheapest/easiest way to do it?
Would I be better just buying a bearing and...
Just some quick pics now they're fitted, cars dirty but weathers not been good enough to clean it. Anyway.....
All pics are outside my house with my phone so apologies for quality/location, will get some better ones when the weather brightens up.
Comments welcome.
Cheers
After fitting my coilovers, I have encountered a slight problem. I have them wound right down and the exhaust pipe over the beam seems very close and is knocking and causing all sorts of noises going over bumps etc. Anyone else had this problem and if so how did you fix it? Going to take it to...
Just got some FK Highsports for my 172 and fitted them, have them really low which looks ace but the fronts are scrubbing so going to have to raise them. How do people run them so low without scrubbing (Christopher/f0xy etc.) do you lot take out your archliners?
Anyway, from what I understand...
Ok, after muchos searching, I have managed to find out that the hub spacing on 172/182 is the same and the cup models/models with cup packs are different.
The thing I can't seem to find out, is about the trophy suspension. Is the hub spacing the same as the standard 172/182's or is it the...
Been a lot happening in the last few weeks in terms of me and my car(s). As most of you will know I had a 1.6 16v RSi, which I loved to pieces and had done quite a lot to. Well I picked up a new interior for it from good old ebay :) 172 exclusive styleee
And a random one from...
I want to cover the fabric part on my door cards in another style to match what I'm doing with the interior, my car is a MK2 PH1 btw.
Just wondered if anyones done this and what the best way to go about it is? Can the fabric part on the original doorcards be removed to make it easier to retrim...
Nothin much to update since the last pics really, just that the once colour coded splitter is now black again. Have a few plans in the pipeline though so in the next few weeks it should all come together :D
Sorry about the location, couldn't be bothered to go out and take any :rasp...
Right, I'm a total noob when it comes to ICE. What im after is a good amplifier and 12" subwoofer which I want to fit in the boot floor (removing the spare wheel). I don't want it to cost me a fortune, what are peoples recommendations?
Are there any 12" subwoofer boxes available that would...
