Rolling road day arranged through a south west car club, so i thought it would be rude not go down and put her on the rollers considering she hasnt been on a set yet. Bare in mind on the graph i am at a slight advantage due to running no PAS or Aircon, but a healthy figure none the less, im...

Hi, SHoving an F4R into my mk1 shell shortly, one thing ive not looked into and nor can i remember is the routing of the coolant pipes, i believe theres only 4 pipes? so it should be quite simple. Does anyone have some pictures they could stick up to show? I mean standard 172 routing in a...

As title, I've only got an e14 and it feels one size too big. However ringing around the car shops locally they don't have any e13 only e12. It's pissing down with rain and I can't be bothered to walk to the otherside of town to find out e12 is too small. Thanks!

Dissasembled my head and put all the collets in the lid of a jar. Stupidly kicked the lid while moving about and lost half of them, where can i get new collets and how much should i expet to pay, is it renault only?

Well i have a stock 43k 172 engine ive taken apart and been tinkering with. Ive got a nice ITB setup next to me waiting to be bolted to it, but i couldnt possibly put it all together without having a tinker with the head ;) I know a fair amoun about engines, but absolutely 0 about cylinder...

I've got my 172 bare head, ive taken all teh valves out to do a bit of tidy up headwork (remove casting and CNC marks while removing as little material as possible), ive heard the ph1's have much improved exhaust ports over ph2 head. Does anyone have any pictures of comparison or any adivce...

Right, my situation. I was all into the highly tuned mad sped F7R for my mk1, it was a pretty flat out spec High Comp F7R on jenveys, 11.75mm catcams blah blah, anyway i blew it up. I am now in possession of a ph2 172 engine, ive stripped it down to do a few personal improvements, and am...

Hello, dont really post on here much but i lurk in the background :D This is a long thread as i like to explain stuff fully :D I want some genuine advice though as to what i should do. Heres a few things about me, im a mk1 lad through and through, had 3 valvers and a hybrid. They have all...

I just destroyed a union on my oil cooler, so need a new one... How do i know if i need 1/2", 5/8" or 3/4" fittings. I want to use my original sanwhich plate but new lines and cooler. What part do i need to measure? Is is internal diameter of the hose? or the threaded part of the...
