How many track slots are left?

What I meant is, if the original bolts are the same as the bolts on the sport, the PMS kit is longer than standard.

If they're the same as the sport setup speak to pure motorsport. They'll sell the bolts from their kit separately.

Good. Hopefully got a very decent welder lined up too, so it'll be nice and secure. Did make me laugh when I opened the pack, and found a CD of pictures of the clio "international" cage. Still, it shows the basic structure that makes up the clubman cage anyway. No pics yet Ali - it's just big...

Oh, and the roll cage has turned up. Have decided on a Custom Cages clubman cage. Poor lad who delivered it was on his lonesome, and was back at work with a dodgy knee after having surgery on it. That cage is about 25+ KG packaged up!

So after last week when @Gus and @Steven103 visited, the engine was cleaned and left to dry. I attacked it mid week with some rust remover gel that Gus left, and gave it a good clean. It got a fair bit off, but still required a lot of work. Come yesterday, @Scrooge came up and fitted the...

Another update, and quite a bit of progress was made this weekend. Massive, massive thanks to @Scrooge He came up yesterday to fit the cambelt, and then we got a bit carried away with carrying on. That resulted in the engine and gearbox being painted, the ancillaries reassembled, and dropping...

I'm using the Odyssey PC680 battery in mine. Or at least will be when the car is built up!

Ah, happy days. Slightly gutted I don't get to use the angle grinder, but I'm sure unbolting them is better.

When you say remove, is that with an angle grinder?!

@sonny172cup - saw you fitted EPAS. Can you shed any light on how the DCI rack fixes in place?

So here is the dci rack from an 04 plate. Part number matches the one in the epas thread. But how does it bolt in?!

Massive thanks today to @optical and @Steven103 Both came over today to help (when I say help, they did pretty much everything!). Gus and I got on with cleaning the engine, and we also got it on the stand. Might even be able to return @Tony Hunter his engine hoist soon I hope too! Steven...

Member.... Snigger....

Seems the be the general consensus. I've gone for the same setup on my phase 2 172.

Is there a difference in the driveshafts between the 172 and 182's?

Lol. Just messaged @NorthloopCup about this, as I need to know as well. FTR5277 seems to ring a bell though. GSF part: 435RE0340

Lol. What a question to ask. We're not all phoonigans! :tonguewink:

Does it have to be an Intel i3? I'm running an AMD fx-6300 3.5ghz 6 core. Dirt cheap 120ssd, 1tb sshd, 16gb ram, and just a simple mobo and case

Continued cleaning the engine bay this morning, and removed the sound deadening material. Also replaced the standard dog bone mount with a Powerflex one, and removed the grilles from the front bumper ready to clean them up and paint them in bright green!

I love the attention to detail fella, and clever things like the mounting of the ecu. To be honest mine will be slapped together this year as I just want to drive it! Lol. Things like modifying the loom to chuck out the unwanted bits, convert to epas and a bit of bling will be on the list...

Just read through this thread again. The pictures are like p**n. It's giving me some inspiration to crack on with mine, especially now the boys got the motor out for me. Is it done yet Mark?!?!

Strike of genius in my part. Soaked everything up (just about). Have left it there for now whilst I clean up the engine bay.

That's not gearbox oil, it's jelly!

So this weekend just gone, I had a lot of help to get cracking on the project. The motor is now out and will be given a clean before receiving new belts and an aircon delete setup. We found a lesser-spotted @Cookie in the bay too. Obligatory Angle Grinding shot - still can't get the...

Had the narcolepsies last year! [emoji23] I'm looking at bringing some picket fence to establish a pro snore zone

I went to bed far too early Saturday night. Need to stay up later this year. But I'm old now.
