Re: Edde's 10Nurburgring Lap This was in the diesel yea?

Re: Edde's 10Nurburgring Lap i dont get it, what does it show me?

Re: Can anyone identify what this is that fell off my car last night??? Go have a look, you should have half of it still bolted to the rear engine lift eye. Alot of people dont put them back on.

Re: Can anyone identify what this is that fell off my car last night??? you'll find the rest of it attached to the rear engine hoist point. Its the heat sheild that goes between ex manfiold and oil pressure sender area.

bingo bango ;) Gaskets the wrong way round though.

Next time a practice day is on i'll see if i can get a ride. I'm an old skool racer and when i first saw drifting i thought it was a total waste of time. However i now sponsor 2 cars and cant get enough of it myself lol.

Yea, exit speed is dead as they just spin away all power, entry speeds are truely amazing though. You should have a ride in a top car/driver setup........its truely awe inspiring what they do and just how much grip they have. They still run huge semi slicks and corner G is HIGH. Its not...

Exactly the same thing happened when the 172 came out, then the 182......no biggie, time will pass. But saying that, jeremy in his 197 was faster than all the phs2 oweners going round.

The V6? Because its s**t at handling.........people have tried to race it.

I wouldnt worry, the phs1 owners mock the phs2's for having a lard arse car, and now the phs2 owners have someone who they can finally look down on weight wise. 197 is a far better chassis and car, abeit heavier, but the drive is better than the phs2 and they certainly look better. 197...

You'd of thought. But at the complex in silverstone they enter the corner at about 120mph and yank on the hand brake, the faster japs were doing about 140 and pulling on the wand at the 150m mark. I did a bit of cam car driving as you need to be an icredibly fast driver because a drifters...

Thats my point. The last clip was a driver from the EDC circut so has no problems drifting anything.......apart from a clio v6.....he was sat on the lock stops there.

technically, a drift is a 4 wheel slide, so what people know as drifting in general nowadays, isnt drifting, its oversteer and power oversteer. To drift, all 4 wheels need to be at a different slip angle to the direction of travel. RWD cars can 'drift' and technically achieve a 'drift'...

I've not heard of it. Its a crap car to drift, zero lock means zero angle, and zero angle means no balance point.

Steve had more angle than you! :P

Put simply..............no, it will not drift. There simply isnt enough lock to hold any decent angle for a real drift. Sure you you trail brake into a corner, you can do overspeed induced slight drift, and power oversteer, but there simply isnt enough lock to hold a balanced drift...

Cams, inlet and remap will bring you really close to 185lb/ft and seriously pulls if you get the job spot on, and you can bump it up even further with port work.

TBH, all the exhausts are pretty generic, i've seen them all. On the 172 with single exits, its pretty hard to get it wrong as there are hardly any bends and absorbtion type silencers are all generic across the range in off the shelf systems. They will all do the same job equally well.

No exhausts are flow tested.

The word understeer springs to mind.

Then so long as your below 12psi you wont use water. And the rate of consumption will depend on how much it is set to flow at the trigger point.

check the konis..........i've always had problems with them failing.

depends on the size of the tank, the trigger method and if its a mappable system, and just how much they are pushing through. Ask the owner.

yea, a posche 914

Dave................................... You'd better bring your nova over so i can check for myself.

girls, get on GTR2.

why do you drive a gay car now?

Brain, i understand what your saying........but i'm simply saying that component strength has nothing to do with tunability since they all invariably get changed. Therefore, the only real importance is the cylinder head and valvetrain assembly.........everything else can be accomodated for...
