Hey guys. Car is currently off the road, so can’t drive to test. I’ve tried a very crud way to see if they are rubbing. I think they will but I’m not sure.
Thoughts?
Eibachs, with 15mm spacers.
Hey all,
Thought it's about time i shared my project, it started 2 years ago. I was randomly searching Autotrader and i found a 50k 172. Had a quick look and it seemed clean and in "ok" condition. I only really had the intention to use at the weekends and trips to the Nurburgring etc. I...
Hey Guys,
Love this picture so thought i'd share. Had the Clio for a couple of years and it's always been an ongoing project. I'll actually start a progress thread soon as I've done a fair bit since i got it and also plan to do a lot more... The BMW is the daily! Actually the best car I've...
Does anyone have issues with getting supplied tyres fitted. I've called 3 places in Basingsoke, two won't do it and one want's £25 a tyre, which is just ridiculous...
Anyone else have this trouble?
Cheers.

Can anyone help me!?

My car feels a little slugish in this hot weather. I'm using the A/C all the time, should it really make that much difference?
Anyone else notice the difference?
Hi Guys.
Anyone got pics of a Monaco on Black Gloss standard wheels?

Hey Guys,
Changed the plugs today and all ok. I knew there was a gasket on the main inlets, but i was not expecting a rubber seal on the back. Is this a part from Renault? I have put it back on but not great, split reather bad and probably not a good seal..
Cheers

Hey guy's/girls..
I'm struggling to work out where my exhaust is rattling.
Got a stealth box, it has had a new bracket fitted at the back with extra padding so it does not sag.
Had the exhaust on a ramp and given it a good shake but cant seem to find the place its rattling. It was not...
Hi Guys,
My car is really hesitant for about 5 minutes after I start.
Any ideas what I would need to look for?
I do need to change the plugs, not sure what else could be causing it..
Any ideas welcome.
Cheers

Hi Guys,
Finally managed to get some half decent shots of the car.
Picked up the car 3 weeks ago with some problems. It had just failed the MOT on bad rear brakes, broken spring. It also needed a full service and a good detail.
So far i have done the following
Eibach Sportlines -30mm...
Hi guys,
Just found out that my inner cv boot has split (drivers side). I think this might have been split for a while. There is still grease in there but not much, can the gear box oil come out from there? or does this only happen when you pull out the drive shaft?
Cheer for the help.

Hi All,
My car needs a new set of springs. This is the car now.. Is this a standard ride height for a 172?
I need to change these ASAP for the MOT. Has anyone got any opinions on the 30mm lowering springs from K-tec http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1152
I've looked...
Hi Guys,
