They gone? they're off ebay?

Might sound stupid, one of my centre caps has broken on my turinis that I bought not long ago. Deciding whether to stick it back on. Wondered whether anyone knew why there is a cap covering just the middle and what its accessing? Cheers

They wouldnt be custom they would be standard clio subframes from recaro. they are £100 seat. I have them for my car.

Oh and have been told it best to upgrade the engine mounts too, but not a nessesity. But would help the engine withthe extra power

Theres quite alot of extra you'll need. Im currently doing a conversion myself. If your like me and only looking for moderate gains with out changing the internals, i have got manifold and turbo, then the down pipe, then the 182 link pipe. Youll need the oil feed pipes and return pipes for the...

Right, i have got all the parts near enough, just deciding on whether to put in a paddle clutch or whether just an uprated or standard clutch would be good enough for the conversion? Only looking for 220/230 bhp. Also with engine mounts, have heard that uprating to powerflex bushes does a good...

Im not looking for High pressure, would be looking for a low pressure setup. I never believe people telling me what their car runs at on ebay! The kit i have got so far is the turbo, manifold, and down pipe, have looked into and will be getting today, Meg 225 injectors and intercooler, what is...

I have had a look at some forums that give the speicfic paint name for this colour but im not sure which it is, anyone know the name eg ottoman blue, extreme blue etc. and the code? Cheers

Not sure if he is on here, had a private reg. it started with J33 didnt get the rest, didnt have the time to look. Just wondered if he was on here. Ed

Fair Point

Cheers, Thats is quite alot more than i thought it would be.

Was wondering if anyone knows where I can get my inlets matched/ported near bristol area and how much? Cheers

Well I went to power station and got 170 out of my 172, all the others had 182's and were reading around that, nothing like 160! that seems like the roads out! with induction exhaust and remap i have seen many hit 190 thats 172's, for 182's abouut 192bhp ish

yeah I have had a go in a car with one of these and it is to be fair it was mint! only problem is the syncros wear alot quicker because it cant mesh the gears quick enough, (if you do alot of quick shifting) but the shift does feel alot tighter and alot more race like.

the box changed for the 172 in late 2002. so a late Ph2 172 (52,03) had jc5130. Ph2 previous to that had JC5129. Then the PH1 was different again The difference is the speedo is run from the gearbox in the earlier one (129) where as now they run from the ABS. But as the cups dont have ABS...
