    172 Cambelt changes

    correct, outside same, inside diff. Might of just have been due to some failures of the 10mm bolt which was fixed on later cars.

    Back engine breather pipe

    The breather is the only engine breather for the whole engine, any excess crankcase pressure wille excape from there. The actual size of the hole is pretty small, not anywhere near the size of the pipe that attatches to it, so it is more than possible it will whistle if no breather pipe is...

    172 Cambelt changes

    correct, the ID is different as they each sit on a different sized spigot which the bolt goes through. The spigot supports the inner bearing race rather than the bolt itself which just clamps the idler to the spigot and block.

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    good..........so do i..................*vomit*

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    finally we agree on something! Please tell me your not a lee evens fan either.

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    lol, didnt realise it was you from this post! haha Nice meeting you today mark, good to hear all is well.

    Safe level of nitrous?

    with enough control, you can run a surprising amount. Maybe 40bhp from low rpm (2500) upto 120 at peak rpm etc.

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    you dont know that i dont hamper secret and deep feelings for him..............dont speculate!

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    depends what he's been saying........motion of the ocean and all that.

    i'll change my name to chip and sit on your shoulder, i'm small enough too.

    Yozzasport Exhaust Fitted :)

    yes, and with oxidation you get impurities and surface irregularities

    Yozzasport Exhaust Fitted :)

    orbisoud joints and welds are ironically not that neat, especially around their 'on the piss' cat element. You could weld all the way down the exhaust system with 30 joints, if its back purged then you wont have any problems with turbulence and powerloss. Absorbtion type silencers with...

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    Yours wasnt CNC'd, it was the second to last hand one i did........and because it was you, like i said before, i took more time over it than i normally would. So if he want impressed then he'll be apalled by others. Maybe your mans eyes are crooked and he didnt alight it properly.

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    rather whos is the best work ;) CNC allows consistent replication, but you still need to design the best manifold in CAD and blending into the OE manifold with no steps, large radii changes or abrupt transitions took us ALOT of test manifolds to get right even though several whole manifolds...

    even on dialogys its the same part number.

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    No waiting anymore for drive in/drive out service. However we are out of 182 plenums due to lack of returns. And you know what i mean.......personally, i'd be embarresed.

    Cat Camshafts

    The phase shifter part number across all CB chassis 172's are the same. If tehre was 40 deg advance then the vvt logarhithmics would have to be a whole lot more complex than 'on/off'. Not to mention is a pretty apalling gain for the work done........i.e zero. They are not 40 deg advance

    Inlet manifold/phlenum work ?

    LOL! They dont, but it wouldnt surprise me if they are.........................

    Cat Camshafts

    sounds like they are.

    you could build an engine with a powerband that was usable on the road and everyday, with reliability, but i'm not sure most people would spent the money required.

    Cup 07 LOOKING GOOD

    was gonna say, rubbish on the down shifts.

    What ever happend to the new angelworks "project"

    still going. Sadly i dont sit here all day just doing development work.........regular work is needed to fund it and we dont turn over millions :(

    i assume if he's running forged pistons then the management system isnt staying OEM.

    Yozzasport Exhaust Fitted :)

    its not lazer welded though, it'll just have an old man with a bit of uhu glue.

    throttle potentiometer

    no, that measures crank angle and position. phs2 172's have 2 potentiometer assemblies, one on the pedal and one on the throttle body as its FBW......find out which one it is, if it even is the TPS. Check the map sensor and lambda aswell, they would be easier fix's lol.
