I agree....convert all that hard work in to a 172, you won't regret it

Eeeeeaasily the V6 - everytime. Don't care if it's slower that the focus. Very special car imo.

That is a mean car :evil:

700?!!! :o

Very common problem. Mine lasted 34k before it broke off. Had a stainless steel one put on for a while which sounded a little meaner and.... don't hold me to this but it also 'felt' a little more responsive at lower revs. Would of kept it on there but due to selling, wanted to get it back to...

Not saying it is.....can fit 4 golf bags in the back AND no longer have to slide my seat forward when people sit behind me :) And let's not be forgetting the flat 4 burble. Sounds great even when just idling.

I went from a clio to sti. You HAVE to make sure it's a good one or you'll be parting with a lot of cash. I use it as an everyday car as I did with my clio. Funding wise, I'd say costing has gone up x3. Will be in the thousands for a major repair. Insurance is steep if your young or/and have...

Nice motor, join the club ;) Lose the rear lights and that big badge on the rear pillar and looking better :p Think the STI8 bonnet scoop is a matter of preference. Lots of people don't even know the difference so don't worry ;)

Mint <end of>

Hehe, been a while since I been on here and seems the type of comments that I used to read on the saxo threads are now occuring here! lol. 330i's were always fun to toy with though :rasp:

Mines on 24 degrees. Can anyone beat that?

Hi Claire, good to see a fellow Pompey user on here. You will love the car.

I pick the car up when funds clear which should hopefully be around mid-week (Bloody bank holiday weekend!). Have recently bought a new camera aswell so should be able to take some decent pics.

Can't believe I done this but just put a deposit down on a 51 plate wrx sti import in white. It was more of a spur of the moment thing after having a view of the car. I was very impressed with the whole thing and instantly fell in love with it without even considering the running costs. I must...

Pretty sure thats about 5 years old now. As quick as we would like to think our clio's are, Type R would take it if drivers were on par ability wise.

Just to help you save a bit more money... http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/index.html Constantly updates to find the cheapest cameras online. I managed to save a fair wad of money here.

I think they are all compressed with something like winrar. Try extracting just the .r00 file into another folder and they should all extract as one. You should then have something like a .avi file along with some info text about the ripping team etc. Simply plop the movie file into nero 7 then...

Yeah, that site doesn't seem to wanna load :)

wtf, after 2 years of scraping frost off, they are heated! Mind you, took me 6 months to discover the mutli changer under the passenger seat! :S

Just drove back from the pub (not been drinking) and the temp display is back! Dunno how. Showing 35 degrees but at least it's back. woohoo!

Only realised now as I got back from work. Clock display looked different but took me until now to figure out what it was. For some reason my temp display has dissappeared. Over the last couple of weeks it has been showing temps of around 25-30 degrees eventhough it's probably half that even in...

I'm not sure if it's still around but there's a distiller that can decode flash scripts so you can play around with whats in the original library. Not sure if you can rip the text though as they've probably been transformed from true-type to vector form or something similar.

Been meaning to write this up for the last couple of days but haven't had the chance. If anyone remembers, I posted on here asking for help on what exhaust to get as my back box had fallen off (common problem). Got some helpful responses but the fact I need my car for work meant I had to get it...

Just seen the stealth, looks great. Are they easy to fit? if so, I'll order it now

Thanks cliobritt, I doubt I'd get the time off to drive up there. I'm situated in Portsmouth and need it sorted by Tuesday seeing after that day I'm gonna be bogged down with too much work. I was looking at this one: http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2069 any good?

I've just reached 33k in my ph2 172 and the back box has just snapped from the rest of the exhaust, still hanging on though. I've already read up that the standard exhausts are pretty poorly designed so I'll no doubt be getting a decent replacement. And that's where I'd like a bit of help from...

Just noticed mine have cracked :( They're like a time-bomb when exposed to the sun.

Jeez, for those of you that keep your cars for 12months or less, how much money are you losing?!

Just got back from work, the photo's weren't exactly taken in best conditions and the curvature of the glass didn't help. I'll have to take them on a gloomy day in future. They can also be created in most colours (be matched to your car in vinyl etc), resized, different materials such as...
