    Adam's 172 Turbo Build

    you can make one. don't need a gun. i use this. works perfectly! hold with 13mm and tighten with a torque wrench. works best with aluminum rivets(softer) but also used stainless. although need a high tensile bolt in the center.

    The everlasting ph1 ITB Build **GREEN-BUILD STARTS AT PAGE 100**

    First of, please accept my condolences. May he rest in peace! Regarding the lines, I just did the easiest most cost effective way. With a grommet. There is very little space there for a bulkhead connection so I personally think just a pipe through a gromet is fine. Providing it’s secured to...

    What are your plans on separating fuel tank from the cockpit? That’s the only thing that’s stoping me. No idea how to do it bet with out adding a ton of weight! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    RB PH1 172 Rally Car Progress

    So great to see it run! Bet you over the moon!!! There was always gonna be issues on the first run! I had a few. Fixed them and second run was faultless! Apart from the brakes! Just not big enough. Going for 4 pots as well. Also I run a small Syvec filter as well. Not had an issue with it...

    I have it off on track occasionally. But I am a big girl and need assistance at slow speeds ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    Yes and no :) Checked the rack no play at all! Moved the UJ by 1 spline. It’s a b**ch to adjust so not gonna bother. It’s absolutely fine on the track. I am happy with it. On the road its wierd. But than again, I don’t drive it daily. It’s not gonna bother me. Increasing castor fixed the issue...

    brake booster/servo pipe diameter.

    No vibration whatsoever. I think I will try the old fashioned way. Thanks Rob Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    brake booster/servo pipe diameter.

    Yeah I heard someone mentioned the knock back thingy but not how to cure it. It is very strange how it starts after 3-4 laps. I bleed the Them before Rockingham today on Saturday. Run about a litre of fluid through. No bubles were coming at all. Using eBay pressure bleeder. Wondering if I am...

    brake booster/servo pipe diameter.

    Hi Guys. a sort of quick question. is that pipe that goes from the manifold to the booster has to specific diameter? the reason why i am asking i because i am trying to diagnose a weird brake issue i am having on my track car. basically after about 3-4 laps pushing hard. my brakes will start to...

    ilya's 172 #BECAUSE_RACE_CAR

    Yeah I saw that. Will try this first see how it works. The problem is, there is literally half inch between chassis and wheel on full lock. So ducting can only go under the car. And not a big diameter. I already tried to fabricate some ducts out of planting gutter pipe by Bering and flattening...

    One day you manage to loose some weight, another day you gain a bit ? Decided that brake cooling was ineffective, well nonexistent. So decided to fabricate some deflectors. No idea how well it will work or if it will catch on anything but not gonna weld the ends just yet. Will test at...

    Out of curiosity, who gave that advice? Not heard a single bad thing about Cartek. And it’s 5 times lighter than armtech. And cheaper.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    The main problem is the lover UJ. It almost has no angle in it. Hard to see. But I guess it’s a 50/50 chance I go the right way haha. Will try do 3-4 notches see what it does. Thank buddy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    Suppose you right. Will do tommorow. There is tension screw on the rack itself. Right at bottom. When I was rebuilding the rack, I might have tightened it a bit to much. I tried today to adjust it. Screwed all the way in and was almost imposible to turn wheels side to side by hand. Than I...

    Didn’t go that far yet. Really don’t want to undo suspension components as it’s been fully set up. I guess I am gonna have to if I wanna get to the bottom of it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    I would say before I changed the castor, it was underivable. Now it’s a lot a lot better but still lucking that feel when the wheel wants to comeback to the Center. In corners it’s like you have to return the wheel manually when exiting a corner. But at least straight line stability is there...

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    Good news is that it does indeed separate (at least the non EPAs) the question remains, which way do I rotate? Hmm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    As far as I know, it’s a telescopic shaft (folds on the impact) but not sure if it can be split and rotated... going to test my old one non EPAs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    EPAS and castor problems. steering quite unpredictable

    @CamMoreRon ok so this is how my UJs are positioned. The issue with adjustability is that the lower one is fixed position and can not be rotated (can only slot one way to the rack) The top one, I can only rotate the input shaft on the motor, but this won’t change the orientation of the UJ. The...
