    Injectors!!

    Renparts was the cheapest I could find when I looked for genuine Magnetti Marelli injectors, delivered in a couple of days too :up: I got them off their website rather than on eBay

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    Only a small update when we did all the work a few weeks ago noticed that that both the engine and gearbox mount were done for so swapped the engine one today for a brand new one and just need to organise the gearbox mount now. Did 100 miles today and all good :smile: Goosed engine mount...

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    Small update from today, changed the temporary 3mm rear spacers for 10mm hub axle spacers, what a pain in the arse it was fitting them :smile: won't be doing that again in a hurry. Couple of pics below when I got home, was thinking of going for 20mm spacers on the front but am liking the 16mm at...

    2005 RB 182 Cup

    The fitting is pretty straightforward, although someone else actually fitted it :smile: I was there though, it's the adjustment that takes the time, we got it so that all 5 gears are perfect and reverse needs a little gentle persuasion at the minute, am hoping to tweak again, it's best if...

    Clio 172 cup OEM+

    I keep meaning to get some paint on my calipers, are you having them painted or powder coated? I have put Spax RSX coilovers on, I wasn't supposed to be as the cup shocks and springs were new all round just before i bought mine earlier this year but these things happen! I am still tweaking them...

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    It makes a massive difference to the shift, a lot more direct and accurate, you can feel the shift a lot more a lot less vague. I was tempted by the BMS but a few people said go the whole hog and get the PMS so I did, also helped that one got offered to me and I got to test drive in a Ph1 first...

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    It's getting there :smile: From what I understand will help in the mid range and lose a bit at the top end, it feels quicker but that could just be the fact I had all that work done at the same time and am sure when I have a remap and get the most out of it will make a difference but can't...

    Rob's R26

    Loved the R26 I test drove, the LSD made it for me, great fun, may end up with one myself at some point, shame about the Impreza but hopefully onwards and upwards, look forward to seeing what you do with it :up:

    OZ F1's on phase 2 172

    Mine on cooksport springs and cup dampers, I did have a gearbox in the boot though so that may be helping the rear down a bit 😂

    Sounds great, glad they were able to sort out the issue quickly and you could get all the other bit's done as well. You must be really happy with 180.9 I know I would be :smile: how does the arb feel? I know you haven't had a lot of time with it yet :up:

    mintno1's Ph1 172 & Ph2 172 Cup Progress Thread

    I think that is a good price, will be interesting to see what yours is making when you first get it there as is already has a map on it and then afterwards, like you say it's all about the drivability rather than the power, I have said a few times if they could make mine 172bhp that would be...
