    Removing a RT Engine...

    Hmmm I wouldn't want to be stripping and rebuilding(?) an engine with only 'basic' knowledge? When you say good basic knowledge how far does this extend? Removing an engine isn't easy but isn't a huge challenege, but if you want to strip the engine and rebuild it you would need more than basic...

    Fan-assisted Induction Kit Idea

    as above ^^ lol the fan won't be able to blow the air out quick enough matey so don't bother ;) Not an expert on 172s but I think your best bet is to relocate the intake to the front fog (?) to get the best effect... but don't bother with the fan!

    majorly annoying clutch problems

    Cable heaviness is probably due to the cable being a non-genuine item, if you don't buy a genuine renualt cable almost always its going to be stupidly heavy! As for it frequently snapping, im not an expert on clutches but when the cable kept snapping on my 1.4 RT I was told it could be the...

    Car sounds like a aeroplane over 85mph!

    No because it did everytime I went over 80mph, when I was about 2 miles away from home thought Id boot it and see if it did it again, and nothing! Took it all the way up to 120 and not a sausage!

    Car sounds like a aeroplane over 85mph!

    Yeah I thought maybe similar but it isn't a rumble and it didn't start out quiet! I should say I just changed the wheel bearing on that side and there was some issues with the guy having to cut the old one out and the hub being a little fucked... but to cause a noise like that just suddenly...?

    Williams and valver front discs the same?

    Yeah I know I should replace both but its just a money issue at the moment! How dangerous realistically is it to be running discs which aren't worn exactly the same, whats the effects etc. So I fill the brake fluid level to the top of that tube bit? lol

    Williams and valver front discs the same?
