Cleaned the car!



  Monaco blue 172
Gave the var a wash and parked it round the back of the unit, coilovers on, stainless exhaust (k-tech stealth style), braided lines and pagid pads, fab splitter, not bad for about 3-4 weeks of ownership lol

Also had a cheeky hunter wheel alignment yesterday so were all spot on.

Thinking 15 front 10 rear buddy.

Will hang fire till the new year as I'm researching wheels so would just get a lower offset.

When i had my springs fitted the wheels were tucked in a bit too much. Fitted 5mm spacers and it looks much better. On yours id go with 15 or 20mm imo.

Yah they do need a little space looks wise. Will look into it in the new year want to get poly bushes and solid top mounts first.

Re: Cleane the car!

As I said outside I don't want any drastic changes. Wheels and plates. Will more than likely stick to standards as I want to buy a set of 15's for track use. We'll see what next year brings ;)

Deffo bringing poky bushes, updated engine mounts and poly bushes.

Re: Cleane the car!

It is indeed! I'm good too mate ta. haha I didn't see myself moving my loyality from honda either... but i had a good bid on my DC2 so let it go, everything is for sale for the right price ey! I fancied a change of brand and 172's are going for nothing so decided to give it ago... that was 9months ago and i aint looked back! I just bought a 172 cup for a weekend/track car too so i'll be making a few visits to oulton this year.. you got any dates booked? how you finding the 172??

Re: Cleane the car!

Oh good man!! Going on the 20 something of this month to spectate then will be booking on next month once ive found suitable 15's and some track tyres!

Being honest mate it was a cheap stop gap till I saved for an r26. It's a bit more of a stop gap though bud I absolutely love the thing!!
