    Finchspeed 172 PH2 trackday car

    The build is coming along slowly but I have negotiated with the mrs a day at the weekend that she'll go out with the wee man and let me get on with it. Hopefully get it pushed on a bit.

    Is there any plan with the colour scheme of the engine bay or is it what mood you are in? :p Coming along nicely though!

    Touring Cars at Knockhill 24/25th August

    Enjoyed that today, good weather, good racing and a few laughs at the junior ginetta drivers with their dukes of hazard moments. ​Good seeing some you as well!

    Injector removal

    When I was firing on 3 I check that the coil was energising on each injector by connecting a 12v supply to each and listening for a click. Took only a few minutes and showed injector 3 wasn't working. Changed it and all started working again. ​This won't work if the injector is just blocked but...

    172 turbo

    Turbo hits off the outlet of the breather and also the coil pack mount on the inlet. The breather could be modified but the inlet just wont work with the 225 manifold. Flanges are different anyway for your choice of turbo.

    you get what you pay for.

    I filed mine down about 1mm a side and never had any binding issues with the DS2500's but never found them very good on track. Fitted some Blues and what a difference. Lost count how many trackdays I've done on them and they still have a few days left. Very impressed with Pagid Blue pads and...

    K tec Stud Conversion

    Thats what I was thinking. Let me know how you get on as I think I'll get a set before I go back on track.

    K tec Stud Conversion

    Ktec ones are bullet tipped too. The ktec ones work with 12mm spacers but with bolt to hub spacers this is irreverent anyway. The eBay jobs just don't look good quality IMO.

    172 turbo

    225 Exhaust manifold won't work with the 172 inlet or breather and flanges are different to a t28 turbo.

    K tec Stud Conversion

    Are they worth the extra £50 over the ktec stud kit do you think?

    AO48R - How much?????

    Buy them 2nd hand for around £25 to £50 each. Good tyre but hard to justify new.

    reusing head bolts and gasket

    It's all about personal experience and mine has been good. ​ ​Obviously wouldn't use an old hg but an mls one nearly new, I would.

    Noisy VVT pulley? Clio sport 172, please help!!

    By disconnecting the solenoid you are stopping it advancing and so stopping it potentially colliding. Timing can slip if the belt was not changed Correctly.

    Noisy VVT pulley? Clio sport 172, please help!!

    Remember the dephaser will advance the timing by 16 deg so if you are slightly out then by adding 16 deg advance then it may collide. ​Still think it'll just be your dephaser if fuked.

    Noisy VVT pulley? Clio sport 172, please help!!

    Different advance at different revs. Does just sound like the dephaser is pumped but Andy might be right as well with the valves hitting off the pistons.
