    The Missile

    Slowly, slowly. Engine now in and subframe modified to clear sump. I was saying to a friend I feel like I have all the edges of the puzzle done now!! Now need to finish dogbones, clean up and paint mounts, complete pipes and lines, driveshafts then wiring. Simples.... Sent from my SM-N960F...

    Bit of both. Big spacers on the rear beam and wider lower ball joints on the front plus the wider, lower offset wheels. Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

    The Missile

    Been a while, have been building a full NA car for improved production racing. Engine in the missile decided to eat itself (my fault - aux belt went under cam belt and we all know the rest - best one I've seen - 16 valves, 2 pistons and 1 bore scored!!). So, here is what's next - K24 (test...

    Fitting a Camshaft Sensor to a 172

    Nice one. I can't recall I'm sorry but the are just the size that is in the dephaser maybe M6 fine. I can't recall the heads on the dephaser bolts but I had to grind slots in them to get them out. On my latest car I am going to mount from the other side (ie the engine mount side) - may be able...

    The Missile

    After waiting 8 frustrating months for active suspension from Tractive I cancelled the order and went with 5300's from AST - manufactured and delivered in under a month! Should have just gone this way from the start! The 5100's that are currenty on the car will find their way onto another...

    The Missile

    Managed to get the car re-tuned with the 4 port solenoid and 2 port actuator. Can now hold 21psi through redline delivering around 460hp at the wheels. That is now officially enough, mainly to avoid it self destructing (or prolonging the time before it does at least!). On track next Friday for...

    16x7 et35 Autec Wizard on clio 172

    I think the smaller rolling circumference of a 15 is better for acceleration. Handling, not sure, there's many schools of thought on that! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Clio head on meg block?

    Yes, I have a 182 head on a 225 block. Using a 182 timing belt - tensioner needed to be relocated slightly and the tensioner spring slot machined further. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Fitting a Camshaft Sensor to a 172

    Here is mine. Replaced all but 1 of the VVT bolts with stainless. Works perfectly although would not want a sensor failure. Next one I'll probably put a boss mounted one so I can replace. Have seen the same but mounted from the engine mount side welded into the cover. Have also seen them on the...

    Turbo piston compression advice

    I run 9.5:1 on an f4rt but also run E85 - engine builder wanted 10:1!!! Car is making over 400hp at the wheels. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
