I have the sealey premier ones. Angled head & reversible. Also had good support from Sealey on replacing defective parts under warranty with no quibble and posted out no problem with both these and also impact hex bits. All broken through my fault. Im sure their available cheaper via other...

Cheers, I'll have to get a suitable laptop to get it loaded onto as only got a macbook atm. It was already mapped by chris @ efi when it was in the previous car however have since added cams. Plan was just to get it running and then trailer it to a local mapper to get it setup properly. I didn't...

Ecu powers up and fan starts and then stops. Blue power light is on alongwith General 1 (red) and Tx flashing yellow on both serial in & out What software is needed to read the adaptronics ecu? Haven't been into it to check anything

Forgot to add, both engine loom earths checked & also gearbox to chassis earth checked

Just installed wiring loom and adaptronics ecu for running ITB's. Car cranks but won't fire, fuel pump isn't priming on ignition or when cranking as all fuel lines are bone dry. Immobiliser light goes out after a few seconds Engine bay fuses & relays have been checked & cleaned Fuel pump...

Perfect, cheers for the info. I had ordered one of these months ago, yet to delve into the footwell as cars hard against the garage wall just now until I move it for access so unsure if its suitable. I already have the jenvey cable with suitable nipple so will use these alongwith what you...

What setup is everyone using for a throttle cable when running ITB's? I have a Ph1 so cable throttle already however id rather fit a readily available cable so I ordered a Jenvey cable. Also got a few linkage's so hopefully can mount it to the pedal ok. Does it need to run in the standard...

Much better trying to get the seal tool for anyone wanting to do it, yes you can use a piece of coke bottle etc to help it onto the shaft but the most important part of the tool is that it sets the depth correctly.

Was that a megane oil pump you installed or just the clio dci one? I recently installed a dci one from PMS on my ph1 172 and didnt notice any clearance issues.

Pretty sure they are manufactured by Norbar so its a no brainer really

The halford's ones are identical to Norbar ones, and as said above try get one on trade card or join the motoring club and try get a money off voucher. I have the below halfords ones and covers most things from engine components to wheel bolts. They do a range of 4, I went for 2nd lowest & 2nd...

Top mounts was another sore point with our regs, as some were running solid top mounts such as PMS with their strut brace and that was a no no aswell. I proper 4 wheel laser alignment geo setup will do it the world of good aswell when you get your B14's on. I would also consider fitting cup...

Cheers, may just revert back down that route. No progress for next 10 days while Im away You go to all the effort to renew 'one use' bolts / nuts where required and you end up having to back them off again to redo timing 😂

Be careful if considering the roll centre kit, as it has rose joints which will affect the class you are in for hills / sprints. Im in A2 in Scotland, road going cars so allowed quite a few mods however blue book states that bushing material can be uprated for poly etc however no rose joints...

Spoke to Nick as I was messaging about the tensioner issues. The provide a cap screw for this application as the countersink on the cams swallows up some of the length. Link below incase anyone else comes across this or for future searching. Cheers for the info struggler, definately looks alot...
