very nice, do like the plate!

I’m slowing collecting parts for when it’s warm enough to start on the car again. Plan on doing a ring trip in May. Hopefully I’ll get time to finish the brake cooling and get the rear ARB. Also going to start removing heavy items that are not needed! Few little items ready to go on...

Loving your collecting of wheels... I really want some Speedlines for mine.

This is was great fun to read! Looking forward to seeing where it all goes. Makes me want to get cracking with my project, it's still way too cold... 😂

Maybe something in feb? I need to get the car back on the road...

Looking smart! Mine is away for the winter now.

You mean the 3 part splitter! haha It took some time, but it's great.

I know what you mean about power. I’m thinking of a few simple things and see where that goes. I don’t want massive power as I’ll spend more money on handling and stopping. Still think I’ll look at the following first: Matched inlets Enlarged throttle body Upgraded leads RS Map I know that...

Took it off and painted in plasti dip. Seems to last really well.

It could have been worse mate! It didn’t blow up. Only way is up, we’ll get thinking!

No updates apart from a Rolling Road day to give me some idea of what the car is doing with current mods. 171.7HP Still not sure what route I’ll take for modifications, but i like to get to around 180/185. Maybe, matched inlets, biggie throttle body and induction? Then remap... I’ll have a...

Thanks @TimR26 Was happy with my run, pretty good for a pretty much standard 172.

I’ve not really played with the performance, this is going to be my benchmark. Current mods... K&N Modified Standard airbox Ktec Stealth DeCat Will be interesting!

Yeah, i would be expecting something like that.

what are you expecting? I've got no clue on what mine will run. I've not mad many mods. so i'm looking for a start point.

How many have we got now?

in - paid - :up:

Thanks for sorting this @TimR26 In for either.

Great, lets do it! Put me down. @andy_coops

@TimR26 Any chance there will be another one of these this year?

Manged to get the rear end sorted and car back on the road. So much nicer with new wheel bearing, new shocks and solid top mount. Treated all the metal and gave a good clean. Didn't manage to take many pictures as i was trying to get it all back together. Did have time to try the wife's...

Another little updated. Car passed the MOT, I've managed 2200 miles in the year! 😊 I'll defiantly try and do more this year, i think moving house affected this! Only had one advisory, which i knew was going to pop up and that was a noisy wheel bearing. The guy before me had fitted...

DO IT!

Love this! Great build, given me some ideas... :-)

Just a small update - Car made it to the ring and back with no major problems, however there were a few issues that could be fixed at the hotel. I got 9 laps in this year, before i decided that was enough this year with a rear wheel bearing getting noisy. Hard wired the sat nav (phone) Gave...

XL, i've got a big ass and they're perfect.

Toolstation - £10. Big and plenty of adjustable clips.

I've not actually thought about it till now, but i think i will! @andy_coops ??

That's impressive! I've used mine on a track day once, but no where near like that! Obviously not as committed!
