    Clio head on meg block?

    Yes, I have a 182 head on a 225 block. Using a 182 timing belt - tensioner needed to be relocated slightly and the tensioner spring slot machined further. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Fitting a Camshaft Sensor to a 172

    Here is mine. Replaced all but 1 of the VVT bolts with stainless. Works perfectly although would not want a sensor failure. Next one I'll probably put a boss mounted one so I can replace. Have seen the same but mounted from the engine mount side welded into the cover. Have also seen them on the...

    Turbo piston compression advice

    Straight onto E85 for this setup. Was on 8.5:1 when on 98 pump gas. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Turbo piston compression advice

    I run 9.5:1 on an f4rt but also run E85 - engine builder wanted 10:1!!! Car is making over 400hp at the wheels. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Surely you want to get the most power out if a race engine?! Pretty simple to wire up. Anyway, will run without VVT, but not as well. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Surely the omex has a switched output based on revs (the one I had on an itb'd car did). Otherwise I guess you could switch it on all the time. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Spreadsheet Assistance

    Create a table of the engineers and their daily rates. Then do a validation in the engineer cells using the engineers column from the table above (that'll give you a drop down of the engineers names to select from). Then in the daily rate column do a vlookup of the selected engineers name from...

    Good man. Not enough efr's being used. I moved from a 6258 to a 7163 twin scroll. Fantastic turbos. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    If you get a wing then yes, I'd recommend but there are a heap of other mods I'd do before this. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Cheers. Only reference I have is that without it and only the front splitter it would get a little light in the rear and now it does not so would seem so. It's a nice bit of kit. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    ABS Delete - Fittings question

    Looks good. Could not see that in your basket! Make sure it is an3 (looks like it is but does not say). So a bulkhead fitting through the current holes at the front caliper end. Good idea. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    ABS Delete - Fittings question

    Don't you need the M10 to an3 male/male at the brake end (your not running right to the caliper right, just to the front hoses and rear beam?). Re the bias valve that makes sense but what fitting are you actually screwing into each end of the valve? Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    ABS Delete - Fittings question

    You should consider hard lines - flaring and bending is not all that hard but if you go for braided then the part I can't see is how you are connecting to the bias valve. For the connection back to the brake lines at the ends you will need m10x1 males like the 4 you have for the mc. Sent...

    Was getting some fuel surge below 50% last time out - even with an upgraged lift pump and 1.5l surge tank! So, I have upgraded the in tank lift pump to the biggest one I could get - a Walbro 450 which are E85 approved. I also put a 4.5l under car surge tank on. The Walbro 450 is a beast...

    Do I need a washer for the 197mc on 182? (m12 to m10 converter)

    In that case as long as the taper is working before it bottoms out you'll probably be ok. I normally use sealant on tapered threads and find they degrade if you remove/refit too many times. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Do I need a washer for the 197mc on 182? (m12 to m10 converter)

    Unless it is going to seal at the bottom it won't matter how tight it is - hard to tell without seeing it. You could try a washer but the application is not strictly designed for it. You may need to shorten the adaptor to make sure the washer is sandwiched enough (obviously needs to be some...

    Do I need a washer for the 197mc on 182? (m12 to m10 converter)

    I would have thought the adaptor would seat into the bottom of the M12 hole like the original brake line. Did the adaptor have a taper on the m12 male end and does the M10 female have a taper at the bottom for the brake line flare to seat into? - something like the attached. If so you should be...

    Cheers! Intake temps on my logging are low - the headlight intake provides plenty of cool air flow. I may at some stage but not a priority. I did just install a quality intercooler so hopefully solves my boost dropoff at high rpm. Should be on track this weekend to see... Sent from my...

    Meg swap

    I'm sure the lack of responses is because there are plenty of build threads with most answers. Anyway, engine is not exactly the same - meg engine means you will also need a meg gearbox. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Recaro CS seats,Clio 197 into 182 etc.

    Yep, they were original height and on the carpet. Would not want to be any higher than that (and lower if possible!). Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Took the height adjustment out and made mounting points. If you removed the plastic skirt they could possibly go a little lower. Look forward to seeing how it goes. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Meg 3 seats into a 172. Don't underestimate how much height needs to come out. These were done with aftermarket sliders and bespoke mounts. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Engine bay tarted up and ready for the track on Wednesday. Installed the turbosmart recirculation valve (can also see the turbosmart dual port wastegate actuator in the pic). Also had a small oil leak on the turbo oil return to seal and a couple of other little fixes. Love the colour the...

    It's a hafco mill lathe in one (remember I'm in Aus but it's a generic machine). Lathe works well but a bigger more solid mill head would be good. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
