Hailsham - caged BG 182, anyone on here? Just spotted. I was in a black Ph1

Any performance LOSS in running a standard center section and standard backbox on my 172 with a decat? Or will I get a bit more out of if with, say a decatted ktec stealth or similar? Asking as I'd want it to be fairly quiet but still get good power with my 182 manifold & remap.

Rear arb and sticky tyres

Yes, give him a text on-- 07957719676 His Name Is Steve, mention Amin sent you. ?

All I know is that it's been for sale for a while. They have/had a flame red Ph1 too. Looks nice though!

A mate has one with 62k miles that needs a bit of paint. Just did some maths but sounds like it's hard to spray well.

That's confirmed it for me, cheers chaps.

Quick question.. Al I right in thinking most bodyshops would have a nightmare matching petrol blue? For example, front bumper respray? That is all thank you!

I was getting a slight knocking on acceleration so replaced both balljoints, has cured the issue. 2018-06-07_10-51-41 by Amin Abdalla, on Flickr My ph2 gearstick had a really annoying rattle inside the actual knob which was driving me crazy so I sourced a ph1 shifter to replace it with. Mmm so...

Et43 on standard 172 wheels

Can't find any rust on it! It's surprisingly clean underneath actually. Oh man, totally forgot on the gasket! Will try new cdrom reader first off a mates 182 and see it that bring the display back to life.

I really rated it on my old 172 Cup, suited the character of a Cup. I now have a 172 and I'm not too fussed

I'm Really enjoying This now. I've had a few spirited drives in it recently and am still averaging 39 mpg over last 2200miles. ?? My sat nav display still isn't working, I don't know what it could be. I have been offered my old ph1 back in a couple of months so I'm just going to address...

Looks amazing

Looks good enough a the price. Worth asking about Cambelt, gearbox synchros, manifold flexy joint & front hubs worn

Still no joy with my sat nav. Waiting on a mate who specialises in car electrics to have a go. Now sorted the oil issue, seemed it had the wrong oil in it. Now running expensive 5w40 and genuine filter and it's been level and golden clean for last 700 miles. My mechanic did a compression...

Standard! My Corolla had zero issues. This.. A fair few. Luckily I got a lot of spares and some issues have fixed themselves. Previous owner spent plenty on it ??

Ha. Its all running spot on now after I fitted a few new bits- New Radiator New expansion bottle New coolant temp sensor New map sensor New Crank sensor Fitting a Whiteline rear arb tomorrow weather providing.

I left it for 30 mins and it fired up again. Got it home and haven't driven it since. I've ordered a new Crank sensor and coolant temp sensor and go from there.

First break down! Bogged down and won't start. Just cranks over,car is warm, have been diving for 20mins. Will start after leaving it for 15mins but bogs down again when setting off. Crank sensor? Throttle pedal? 2018-05-08_01-32-48 by Amin Abdalla, on Flickr

I use shell helix ultra 5w/40 fully synth..will keep a close eye on this.

My sat nav decided to work for a few mins! I was driving the car gently when the car totally died halfway around a corner. At the same time the sat nav screen flashed up! The car then wouldn't start at first, cranking over but not firing up. I waited a couple of mins and it started...

Fits good but inner boot will run on a small tab on the engine black and spill all the grease. I used a cabletie around the boot and it tightened it enough to clear the block by a few mm. 200 miles in and it's still perfect with a good enough gap. I chopped that small tab off the block on my...

Itching to get another ph1! Yours looks lovely!

Progress! Ordered a new driveshaft, had a feeling the splines on the sleeve part were worn, causing them to slip /skip, resulting in this horrible knock /clicking noise. All sorted now, drives without any issues now. DSC_1248 by Amin Abdalla, on Flickr Old DSC_1244 by Amin Abdalla, on...

I have a ph1 SMI rack in my shed. Can probably post
