Re: The Confused Budget Track Clio! * Inc 197 Cup Cage Content*
in response to your text this morning mate, pictures of my centre exhaust mount,
sorry if theyre not all that good but i didnt get the jack or anything out today so had to kind of crawl under to take them!!
Tiny update because ive been lazy!
fitted my rear battery as its another small job to tick off my list before the weekend gets done, i fitted my rear battery and kill switch.
couldnt see the point of one of those fancy aluminium battery holders, i just used some punch strap and bolted it...
the difference in sizes will be under 1mm so i think its pretty much neglegable in this case!
there clearly seems to be some conflicting information on this! lol
the dephasor pully controls the VVT, will advance the cam timing on the inlet cam slightly at high revs to give valve overlap. which in turn increases power output.
So ive relocated my battery to the boot, and binned all the metal casing over the ecu so that it can be layed down on top of the gearbox mount like all the other track cars!
my issue is just that i cant find a suitable way of fixing it down!!
just wondered how everyone else has tackled this!
you have a lot more money and space than i do!! i need to wait until the weekend has passed and then ill be putting all the track on and taking the engine out!!
so until then im just wafting really!!
So chris, what were you planning on doing if yours had all come out in one piece? you would still not have had any heating!!
ollie told me about yours you plonker!! why didnt you just stop as soon as you realised it wasnt going to come out!!
and just to rub it in..... I have heating in mine...
why does it have non-sport rear seats?!
personally i cant see how its worth it.
As a track car, you might as well buy a regular 172 without fuubed paint for less money. more monies to spend elsewhere!!
To repair it will cost you more than its worth to paint it to a decent standard.
its...
Thanks for that dude!!
Update time!! 26/06/2012
So im back from university for the whole summer so i think i should really finish this project now!! lol
I have one very large problem with this project. And that is that it's being the space. This project is being undertaken on my driveway at...
as everyone else has said, with the correct amount of oil, with the drain plug fitted correctly and the N/S shaft in properly there is nothing else that could be left out by you!!
the company should take it back straight away as an after care service reguardless of them "being sure its not...
thats amazing!! did you just paint the hubs and steering arms?!
im rebuilding mine and would love it to look 0.0000001x's this good!! lol
i do however thing you have issues!! :D
theyll be 58mm bolt spacing. your car should be 58mm bolt spacing so they should fit, but best off checking first!
if you need anymore info on these coilies use the search function, theyve been covered to death!! lol
theres a plug that goes onto the side of the alternator, if its not plugged in properly it will illuminate the battery light!!
id also just make doubly sure that youre getting 14v to the battery, better than getting stranded somewhere!!
