Just recently my accelerator pedal has started squeeking, when I am depressing and releasing the pedal (for instance on gear changes) there is a squeeking sound and something else which sounds like air escaping. Anybody experienced this before?

Can you tell us which ECU's are approved and road legal for UK use?

Good project, are you designing and plumbing the fuel system yourself? If you want 3-400HP and intend to use only 4 injectors, then you will need to be looking at injectors rated @ 550cc/min + in reality.

Engine looks very clean. What coating is on the exhaust manifold and gearbox?

Looks interesting, bet you can buy it elsewhere for half the price though.

That is a Cup race car isn't it? Doesn't look like the road legal version which will be sold to the public as per the 172 Cup. Don't they cost about 20 grand exluding any seats? lol :)

Decent independant for that type of work. Buy some decent oil in advance and take it with you to stop them from fleecing you for it.

Does anyone on here cover part of their water radiator during the colder months? :)

I commute 40 miles a day at the moment. A roads at between 50-70 all the way. My 172 Cup averages 40mpg and I use about £30 of fuel per week to and from work.

Small claims court if the value of your claim is <£5k.

Connects the piston to the crankshaft.

What kind of tyres did you have on it?

I think I've seen the Red Ph2 172. I often pass him on Newmarket road going into/out of Norwich, flash him but he doesn't ever respond :(

Just remove the screen and drive with goggles and a hat.

Re: Finally, a little update! Nice velocity stacks mate. Are they off the shelf or custom machined?

Silver V6 on the A47 heading from Dereham to Norwich, about 5.30 this evening. Anyone?

Renault? :)

Does anyone manufacture stone chip stickers for the rear arches of the MK2 Clio?

There is no way to find the oil temp on the 172 is there? I may well invest in a gauge.

Would be a lot quicker if he removed all that crap from the boot.

Yeah obviously that is a factor. But on a steady run @ 50-60 with the blower off the temperature sits on the 'currently' mark on the picture above. At 70+ the temperature rises slightly but still not to the normal mark. As long as this is acceptable then I am happy. Coming from a Renault 5...

Right guys, since the weather has turned cold my Cup has started to run a little colder. Should the car be getting up to temp regardless of the ambient temperature? Obviously I am worried about the temperature of my oil and its' ability to protect my engine. It is running basically a bar...

What is the fitted price of this system?

A guy I worked with recently had one of the new Celica GTs. Took it for a spin and wasn't that impressed, the power is very linear and there is a definite lack of torque. Through the gears the 172 is considerably more pacey - car performance isn't all about 0-60 times.

Re: East Anglian Xmas Meet/Meal/Drinks Sunday 9th December There is a nice road which branches off that horrible roundabout in the middle of Thetford forest (halfway between Newmarket and the Yank airbase). It goes to Bury St Edmunds I think, drove down that once to avoid the traffic at said...

Saw a **52 Cup in Tescos a few minutes ago, in the petrol station filling up. Looked clean, anyone on here?

Which garden centre was this James? Wish I had come now, sounds like a good meet.
