    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    New case (define R5) and cpu cooler (hyper 212 evo) arrived on saturday. Never realised how fiddly a job it was replacing a cpu cooler! Could've done with 3 hands trying to get it all back together. Love the new case though. Much neater inside with all the cables tucked away at the back...

    Weird fuel needle/miles to empty problem?

    Could be the sender unit in the tank giving a bad reading. I'm just guessing though.

    Cheers guys. I'll just give it a wipe down and see how it runs. I'm used to 40+ degree temps on load just now anyway with the standard cooler so if I can get it to run cooler and quieter than that I'll be happy enough!

    Ah right so fairly simple then, cheers! Genuine question...would an IPA based car cleaning product work, like Carpro Eraser? Lol. It's all I'd have lying around I could use to clean it

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Been needing a new PC case for a while so I could fit a bigger CPU cooler. Just bought a Fractal Design R5 after reading some reviews online. Looks a good case! Also got said CPU cooler and some thermal paste, which should all arrive tomorrow. Anyone got any tips for removing the old cooler and...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Cheers Craig that's gave me a fair bit of food for thought. I know I definitely won't be going with anything as expensive as ASTs now anyway (or springs rates that stiff!) Good point you've made about the Spax though. They did to work well for a fairly cheap(ish) coilover setup. My only issue...

    It's not as such, but its a minimum event cost (£840) so any less than 16 and we all have to pay more to make up for it

    Scottish Karting Meet

    Been in touch with Raceland about dates and prices. We have the 6th, 13th, 20th or 27th March (all Sundays, they're cheaper) and a choice of 12:30pm or 3:30pm event start times. Sundays are all pretty free at the moment whereas Saturdays are pretty booked up. They're also £60pp compared to only...

    Yeah, seems like the 280lb ones is as stiff as they go. Stiffer inboard springs would make sense as they're closer to the pivot point. Is that as simple as doubling/halving the rates for each though? Seems too simple lol. I think it's getting too late for this 😂

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Lbs is what I work in anyway. f**k that kg/mm and N/mm stuff, confuses the life out of me lol! I'd say I'm the same as you as liking the rear end stiffer. Always had my arb set to it's stiffest setting and kept the damping up high on the back, but the Spax coilies I had were only 342 front and...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    What would you be classing as mid range mate? KW, BCs etc like I've mentioned, or cheaper? Also any advice on spring rates? I know Fraser upped his on the KWs but I've never looked into figures with this stuff before. As above, have you got any recommendations for spring rates? I'll take all...

    Building a backbox

    There are only really two designs of silencer used in cars as far as I'm aware. Absorptive and reflective. The size and type used really just depends on what's required (I have no experience of this btw. I just deal with similar stuff at work)

    Building a backbox

    Surely whoever is fabricating the exhaust should know the answer to all of those questions. After all, you're paying for their expertise to design the exhaust to your requirements without you having to go into detail about types of silencer/resonator and back pressures.

    whats the grippiest tyres i can get for front?

    Worth checking the steering rack bushes IMO if the steering feels loose like you describe.

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Fairly serious, but surely over £800 the only real option is AST's? I ain't quite that serious (or baller) yet [emoji23] Had thought about SLS for 2017 though so I guess there's no point in cheaping out this year and having to upgrade again.

    Scottish Karting Meet

    Seems like most would prefer raceland then. Only issue with them is that they require a deposit before booking but if everyone was set on a date and happy to send deposits over then it's doable. I'll find out what dates are available for March. Gives us plenty time that way. We will also need a...

    Nah you're probably right there, I'm just a tight b*****d [emoji23] I had always planned on getting something better than the spax, just not sure what to go for. Just feels like £800 is a lot to throw into a suspension setup that I've only got some online reviews to go on.
