    Swapping 182 ecu kit into 172 cup and visa versa

    Want to put my cams from my 182 in my 172 cup track car for obvious reasons but really don't want to have the car remapped once it's all done. I've got access to clip to reconfigure things but is this a reconfiguration which is actually possible. I plan to put the 182 ecu kit into the 172 and...

    Billet lightened flywheels and boost

    This is a topic which could probably have people arguing for days. Google doesn't really help and all of the gtr, evo and mx5 forums have never really come to a definitive answer. I enjoyed my lightened flywheel on my old n/a 182 and how responsive the engine was but with boost on the horizon...

    Steeting twitchy at speed. Losing patience

    Recently I've done a huge amount of work to my 182 as the steering felt really twitchy and had the tendency to snap to one side of the other quite easily. After changing the parts it is better but by no means does the car feel tight. I can only describe it as it feels like there is a strong wind...

    Evening chaps Going to be rebuilding the engine in my cup during a week in May as it's using oil. Picked up a block today from @Mini182 which is going to be the base for it.

    Replacing standard wishbone bushes

    Evening chaps. I'm going for a suspension refresh on the 182 so it's not a pile of sloppy dump to drive. I've done all the other bits before but never the wishbone bushes. I'd like to do it all at home if poss unless I definitely need a press. What's the deal with getting the old ones out and...

    Back in a 182 again, yippee.

    Picked this up last night as my dci is on its last legs and probably won't make out summer holiday without total failure. It's my third 182 and I plan to do nothing to it but certainly nice to be back in another one. Needs an oil change, the tracking sorted and a cat gasket. Spec Poly bush...

    Who codes in C#? Where do I start to learn

    Looking to learn some very basic c# coding as a lot of job applications I'm looking at are very interested in it. Has anyone got experience of self learning this code? Where shall I start? I'm a very very logical person so from a brain POV it won't be a problem, just don't have any experience...

    Steering twitchy when cornering, especially at high speed

    I've looked through all the other threads and found nothing. Recently the DCI has developed a horrible twitch in the steering which is particularly prevalent at higher speeds and going round right hand corners. I can only describe it as the car actually veering and it feels like the steering...

    Help me, track day in two days. Steering light and then heavy.

    Finally finished my cup today although when I drove it there was an extremely odd sensation from the steering. Whether the EPAS is on or not the steering feels loose for about 20 degress (each way) of steering wheel movement and as soon as you get past this point it becomes much harder and has...

    Alarm fitting help please. You spending 5 minutes with a multimeter!!

    Afternoon chaps I'm trying to fit an alarm to my DCI which unfortunately I can't get to work. I was wondering if someone wouldn't mind testing which wires on the UCH go to which wires on their alarm pre-wiring plug. My DCI and cup both don't come with the alarm pre-wiring plug so I need to...

    DCI ecu pin which signals A/C on

    Evening chaps I'm trying to work out which pin it is on the DCi which turns the A/C on as the diagrams I've got aren't giving a particularly clear indication as it seems to change. Has anyone got climate control they'd be willing to see which pin goes 12V when turning the A/C on. It should be...

    Slow speed grinding/frog/chainsaw noise

    This morning my car is making a weirdest noise which has got worse over the past couple of days. It sounds like some one trying to start a chain saw somewhere under the bonnet. It's a creaking noise related to wheel speed and it particularly noticeable at low speed. Not affected with brakes on...
