    172cup gearbox in 182?

    Will a 172cup gearbox go straight into a 182? I read about speedo drives etc but hoping this way will be ok and just don't need to used the speedo drive??

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    I hope the wet patch on the floor isn't oil but I could be from that scrappy looking track car in the background!

    Brake Cooling

    I had two horns too but I removed the bracket, removed one horn from the bracket and then mounted that horn directly to the chassis where the original bracket mounted. Doesn't sound as good with only one tone but i'm not that bothered.

    Seat belt eye bolts

    Thanks for that. A little plug weld through the little hole should keep it in place so its easier to bolt and unbolt the eye bolt. Taking all these tips in ready for my build.

    Coilover/suspension setup. Best value for racing???

    I used that price as the most extreme price I could find. I was guessing not every car on the grid would have that sort of money in their suspension. Were you referring to the 5100's? I thought the 5200's are the ones I was referring to at £3468 for two way adjustable. 5100's £1650 I was...

    Aerial Blank

    To be honest I was planning on fibreglassing it from underneath and then filling and smoothing from the top.

    Coilover/suspension setup. Best value for racing???

    What do people recommend for a full on race car for the Tricolore Trophy? I can see you can spend £3500 for a set of AST but will I go much faster with these compared to a set of BC's for instance? What is a good compromise?

    Seat belt eye bolts

    Do you have to weld the mounting plate or is it sufficient just to just use it to clamp to the shell with the eye bolt?

    How come the Saxo didn't need to have the Tricolore Trophy Sun Strip?

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Yeah not been updating for a while. The main reason is because I haven't really done much worth updating. Lack of money mainly and it's also a busy time of year on the land in the summer. I have done some bits though and took one or two photos.

    Difference between itb trumpet sizes

    I ran 90mm trumpets and had to cut the inner skin out of the bonnet. Another 30mm and I don't think I would be able to have any bonnet and maintain the gap between filer and trumpet. On the other hand the Ktec direct to head bodies are longer than generic jenvey bodies so unless you measure the...

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Not been playing much with the car over the last month or so. Awaiting the engine loom and ECU but there is still plenty I could be getting on with if I get the time and motivation. Got a new toy recently which is taking priority at the moment. Went to the Moto GP at Assen last month on it...

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Been doing lot at home with the land this time of year and looking after the animals. Not to mention buying and selling some motorbikes and preparing a road trip to Assen Moto GP but the car is coming on a little too. Gen90 ECU sold and DTA ECU bought which has released some funds to have the...

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Thanks. The splitter is CMComposites. Not got a date in mind as it's going to be slow going as funds have dried up due to an unexpected tax bill so just going to tidy up the interior and get the labour work done that shouldn't cost much money. No rush as I have an other car as a run around.

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    I think it's to do with the pink and white twisted wires. All mine went daft when I removed the OBD port too! I just ripped the lot out and going for a full custom race loom now.

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Just not got round to it yet. It's a pita to remove so I have been doing other things that have more results for little time. I will have to get a heat gun and just spend some time removing it all sometime.

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    Shouldn't be a problem bolting them in and straightening them out but I just though it was odd that both sides have the same bit bent up at the same amount which is unlikely to occur during shipping or something.
