E63 AMG version looks nice!

Had a go at sorting the headlights and bumper fitment - the gaps were all wrong. The support brackets turned out to all be loose and a few clips and bolts missing so replaced/repaired where poss. Couldn't see any signs of accident damage, just looks like its been poorly refitted after removal to...

Had a day off today, so decided to swap the exhaust. Spotted a few other bits that need doing whilst rolling about in the garage; engine mounts being top of the list. Also spotted that the cars fitted with ebach springs and Sachs shocks so certainly looks like the car had the cup pack box ticked...

The last car I had with a side exit was a Metro Turbo, many many many moons ago.

Cheers guys. Couldn't understand the side exit either, the holes left in the rear bumper mixed with the sound of the thing made it seem like the exhaust had fallen off. Was quite loud...

I've had 3 Renaultsport clios over the years, all 172 cup's and I've loved driving every one of them! As times gone on and I've 'grown up' I've managed to blag the family car off on the wife and keep myself something I like driving. Unfortunately, the arrival or our third (and last) child...

After having a search/read of other knock sensor issues, I cand find a definitive answer. I've been running my 172 cup for over a year now with the knock sensor disconnected (no plug in the loom). It's not been intentional, but when I bought it, I noticed the plug missing, forgetting about it...

Certainly sounds like the Circlip if its a 129 or 089 box. Did mine over Christmas A little fiddly, but Took less than an hour on the drive... If it is the circlip: Shim/spacer - 7700720854 1.8mm width or 8200790496 2.8mm width Circlip - 8200295074

172 cup daily hack

Tyres on the rear are shite compared to the front. You should always run the better tyre on the rear unless you like lift off over-steer. I had P Zeros on the front and Toyos on the rear when I first brought my Cup and the lift off was there even in damp conditions. With Pirellis all round, its...

ive got a full lock set, ecu, UCh from a 172 if that's any good.

Turbo conversion? That an intercooler?

Thinking of buying one of these for my overdue belt change. Price seems very reasonable, almost too low for them to be genuine Any opinions?

:smile: Oops

How did you keep the dwarf from entering the box?

I have a cup that's not long spat its circlip. It's got a new circlip but I feel like I'm running on borrowed time. I've sourced another cup box with the intention of fitting the bolt on mod available on ebay. The box ideally needs stripping to fit this, so I was wondering if a later diff will...

RB outside the post office and a cup blue 05 plate coming down draycott cross rd

There are exceptions to the rule. My cup owes me less than £1200, although I did the belts saving a chunk. It's tidy, reliable and has given 6k in 7 months.

Very good....it was shocking when cornering over 50mph!!!

Found out why my handling was shite! Passed mot less than a fortnight ago...vid:

Home made stealth on a budget. Standard system planned in the near future...

:up: Cheers fella...

Hello, Just joined after picking up a 172 cup. Not my first RS. Been dabbling in 205 GTI's for a bit. No real plans other than to tidy it and return to standard. Will throw some pics up when its presentable. Cheers.
