    Focus RS gearbox

    In what way? Still going to need hydraulic clutch, new mounts, mounting flange, new shafts, etc. Does it have an LSD?

    Focus RS gearbox

    Makes a lot more sense now. You sober up?? Lol There would be a lot more to think about than just drive shaft such as mounts, wiring, manifolds, etc. it's an idea but a lot work. Clutch is not an issue, just the flywheel would have to be custom.

    Alarm goes off randomly

    Boot switch is another common one. This is where mine was causing the issue.

    Electrical guru's wanted!!!

    You're some man Steve! Thanks for this, I'll check all this out too. Spoke to Scoff who is having a similar issue with his test bus so seems it is quite common. If it works for us both we might both be taking Mick out a pint and maybe pay for a lap dance for him too!! Cheers again!

    172 cup boosted track toy!

    Mechanically, the car is now complete apart from fitting the cage but still not running. Pics to follow. Immobiliser issues if anyone could help. :dapprove: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?754517-Electrical-guru-s-wanted!!!&p=10421818#post10421818

    Electrical guru's wanted!!!

    Right, here goes! The car has been off the road (track) now for a good 18 months while I've been fitting a new engine and turbo setup. All mechanical work is now done so went to load the base map onto my Adaptronic 420c ecu and noticed that I couldn't get power to the ecu. Checked the switched...

    Focus RS gearbox

    I know of an evo powered fiesta but not a 205. I'll have a search.

    Focus RS gearbox

    Chip-mk1 You're a ford man aren't you? Any thoughts on this box instead of an o2m?

    Focus RS gearbox

    Been thinking of other options to going down the o2m route if the jc5 box gives up at my desired power level of 300+bhp. Came up with the mk1 Focus RS box. It comes with a diff already and is reasonably strong with having all the internals shot penned. I know it would need custom shafts, new...

    F4RT head on F4R block

    as in the megane log manifold into a 3" pipe routed to somewhere else in the bay. Not the most efficient way in going boost either. The megane cast manifold and turbo fouls on the coil pack tray but it also fouls on the breather outlet. This could be modified though. So custom inlet and...

    Weight of seats 172 vs 172 cup

    Cup seats ain't light either. Not sure about airbag weight.

    Weight of seats 172 vs 172 cup

    The weight of the leather which must be around 1kg.

    F4RT head on F4R block

    So you weren't going to use the megane head if you could have got away with just using the turbo and exhaust manifold.

    F4RT head on F4R block

    If you have the megane head and inlet why do you want to use the 182 inlet?

    No, not even close.

    Switched live feed from stock ecu

    Not sure if anyone will know the answer to this but here goes. I'm running an Adaptronic ecu and have the switched live coming from pin 29 from the stock ecu. For some reason this does not seem to be giving any voltage with the ignition on. The dash is lit up and the fuel gauge goes to the...

    They are M7 thread not M5. You can get Allen head or hex head replacements if you need to.

    How do you get rid of a 182 body roll

    Here's mine at the hairpin at knockhill on kw v2's. Body roll still there but vastly improved over cup setup.

    Full engine rebuild time but what to have!?

    Andy maybe? Email or pm him and he'll gladly answer all your questions. There would be no guarantees at that power level for box reliability.mwill come down to use and mechanical sympathy and a dash of luck. I'm aiming for the 340 mark and plan so see what the standard box will take before...

    225 Clio Build

    Not running yet as I can't get power to the Adaptronic ecu so can't load the base map on.

    Removing the 172 cat

    Yeah, on my back on the drive with the car on axle stands. I hand holding the bolts head with a ring spanner and the other using the 1/4" ratchet, extension and flexi joint. Footery but doable. Spot on though, 182 setup is 100X easiers for sure.

    225 Clio Build

    Mechanicals pretty much all done but having some issues with the wiring that hasn't been touched since it was running last. Just back from holiday today so will get on it over the weekend. If it was plain sailing it would be boring! Lol

    225 Clio Build

    Yeah, that's 2 piece. You'll need to check that bearing as well then.

    Removing the 172 cat

    You can and I have quite a few times as I've said. Impact gun went no where near it. The hard part is trying to refit it rather than remove it but still doable.

    225 Clio Build

    Are they 2 piece shafts? If not, it would be advisable to get one from a suitable donor.
