    cordless impact guns

    I've got a sealey one. One of the best tools I've ever bought. Obviously it's not snap on quality but mega useful.

    Video Request Janspeed SPORTS (not ultra) -Sound

    I've got one on my 182. Almost as quiet as standard, the difference is barely noticeable. Never boomy. I'd definitely recommend it as a quiet exhaust.

    Cost of a DIY top end rebuild?

    Cambelt kit 130 Head set 100 head bolts 30 ish cam seals 10 ish 8 new inlet valves as a minimum repair around a 100 plus various other bits and bobs e.g. coolant New engine is probably your best bet. For 400+ I'd expect the engine to have history and recent cambelt, check out the for sale section.

    ph1 uch into ph2 ... is this possible? need quick replies guys

    At the very least the ecu would need reprogramming as ph2 has DBW throttle body where as ph1 as cable. It may not be possible.

    If they remove the valve you'll have way to much rear brakes.

    Best buckets for a Fat a*se

    Have you tried GT width ones? Your best bet would to be to go to somewhere like Demon Tweeks in Wrexham and try them out.

    Doorcards. What to use?

    I've got that foam and it is not what you would expect from "foam". It is more like plastic sheeting. A scrutineer told me to get door cards to cover all the sharp edges in case you get a limb caught in there in an incident.

    Clio Sport 172

    Solid red light means connectivity issue rather than immobiliser fault. You're probably correct about a broken wire. Have a search there have been a fair few like this recently. Where the loom goes over the gearbox you can get broken wires in there. Which results in similar problems to what...

    PH2 172 Stub axles, talk to me?

    I'd suggest you go to the dealer and get them to pull up the exploded view of the rear disc, should be fairly easy to spot. There must be pics on here. BIGASH had a thread recently about getting his rear discs off and I think he had pics.

    PH2 172 Stub axles, talk to me?

    On a 1*2? There is a spacer/washer that goes behind the disc. People often forget to put them back on. If it is missing it leads to the kind of symptoms you're describing.

    Failed 172 Engine? But Why? some questions answered please

    Unless you're in the know though. It is very difficult to know when pattern parts are ok or not.

    Failed 172 Engine? But Why? some questions answered please

    Ktec have genuine cambelt kit for 130 and genuine headset for 100. When I was looking around a couple of weeks ago pattern parts were no cheaper. Head bolts are 76 on ktec for genuine but I did find them for around 30 quid from ecp etc.

    Anyone got std 172 cup/ph2 map file

    I'm swapping my engine over. Old engine had cams new engine doesn't but my ecu is mapped for the cams. Does any one have a copy of the std map for a 172 cup/172 ph2 that they could e-mail me a copy of? That would allow me to run the car without worrying about the mapping until I get time to...

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Didn't realise the ecu was that cheap. How much of the loom would get replaced for that though? With ITBs there are more differences so was thinking you might get more of the loom replaced for "free". Agree about gear box before power.

    ph1/ph2 1*2 cambelt kit differences

    Are there any? I seem to recall people saying that there are. But I am fitting a cambelt to a ph1 engine and the bits all look the same as on my ph2 172 cup engine.

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Budget busting ideas for you :) Probably worth considering getting TDF to fit throttle bodies with the ECU, might not be much more and would at least save some mapping if you ever plan to fit them in future. I'd also think about a lower final drive while you're getting a diff fitted, don't...

    yoko AD08 vs federal RS-R

    The AD08 are MSA list 1A and the RSR are list 1B. List 1B are typically better for competition than 1A. I'd expect the RSR to be grippier for this reason. I have AD08s but only so I can compete in events that specify list 1A tyres. They are good tyres though...

    Dropping and fitting a JC5 gearbox - 172 Cup

    It's fairly straight forward, nothing special required. It can either come out the top with the engine or on its own out the bottom if you drop the subframe. People say it is easier to pull the engine out - I've only done it that way so couldn't comment on the out the bottom option ;) It is...

    How to replace alternator

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    You need to get some R888s or similar and take it from there. I wouldn't make any other setup changes until you've got better tyres.
