Re: throttle body cleaned out but made problem worse? Got a good fit on the TB? if the rubber o-ring gasket has a gap in it you will get a nice humming idle

Think so mate, give me a bell sunday morning ;), i gotta work tomorrow :dapprove:.... Any chance your driving through datchet tomorrow, me needs a splitter too :o

Small wood screws work better, self tapers are more suited to metal mate as the thread is so fine on them, said i dont mind fitting it for ya mate ;) James

Sorted ;) Decided to start it tonight, So, supported the engine & started to remove the mount.. to my horror it had completly snapped, old next to the newish one Cambelt was looking good :) So then i loosened off the gearbox mount & gave the engine a good f**king rock & bolted...

Only used when the standard ECU cannot be used, ie turbo, throttle bodies etc... normal Rstunner remap will work better on a mildly modified car, kit cost around £160-£180 delivered

Havent removed that one yet mate, just loosend the bolts on the mount & tried shifting it a round but no joy.. Will get the new mount on this weekend hopefully & go from there ;)

Cheers for the input guys, will slacken all the mounts & fit the new one then & hopefully it will sort its self out, hopefully sub frame is all good, looks fine from under the car, the whole car was cheap anyway - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=361858 To be honest the mount...

Yep its well fooked, have got a whole new uppermount form a scrappy, well it looks brand new anyway :D , so will putting the new mount in just sort it? just seems like its not sitting right :S may just try fitting the new one saturday & see what its like then

So got a new upper engine mount for my Ph1 as a few know, it was currently going to be the run around but have now decided to turn my Ph2 172 ( 184.5 :rasp: ) back to standard form & modify the fook outta the PH1 for track use :evil: ... So heres the prob : I've manged to unbolt the...

Re: PH1 172 Track Car, abit special looking good ;), what splitter you using mate? Think i'm gonna turn my Ph2 from fast road/track back to normal & start getting my Ph1 172 along the same lines as you guys ;)

Right guys, prices have been confirmed between me & Tony, we belive the price to be very fair considering the time & effort thats involved. So to cover your original bullets in carbon - £50.00 - 1 pair £4.00 - Postage ( royal mail signed ) Total - £54.00 We will need your original item...

De-cat FTW... pop pop bang pop bang pop pop lol

If you want a cheap deal go for it! if your buying to sell on i would give it a miss, theres so many on ebay/piston heads that there spoilt for choice

Will hopefully have a few up for sale in the next few weeks guys ;)

Had a run with an R27 on the A30, was pulling on him up till triple figures... suppose 185bhp & around a ton of weight makes mine a little quiker than most 172's :o

Shitter mate :dapprove: ... thats the thing with buying a second hand motor, you never know what the previous got upto

One of the main known faults of the Ph2 172.... The PH1 172 also suffered from shocking build quality on the steering wheel, affraid the only propa fix is a new steering wheel or build fiberglass thumb grips yourself, theres info on how-to in the guide section ;) James

LOL Just the word "rapid" in the title i think says it all... if there was 25bhp to be had from £20 i'm sure the majority would be using this, i do love the way you will need to solder into the ECU :dead:..

God knows, he says he doesnt know what you've got to do as its his first smash in years, so guess i'll call bell tomorrow & see what they say

Up-date... or maybe should be called down-date :( Spoken to the guy, he now wants to go through insurance as he's been told his premium will only go up 20% next year which he said is only £80.. Surely though it would be put up for the next 3-4 years? Anyway, he's still happy to admit...

4-2-1 manifold for improved torque, ideal since the clio sport block produces very little 4-1 For the rev-happy go-kart & strong "5k kick".. only flaw being fuel consumption

...

Sorry to hear mate... Just had my pride n joy smashed into on the weekend

Wash your mouth out!!! carbon can always go plain lol

Looking smart :cool: , the blue ITG sticker looks pony though :dead:

Any thing can be done, its just whats practical as the time involved would be insane to get it to a highly detailed finish

Its wet lay over the original item, so all orignal fixing are still used ;) no bonding etc, just un-clip the old ones & clip in the new ones, 5 minute job ;)

Me & Tony have just finnished these off, hoepfully have a few pairs up for grabs in the next few weeks, would just like to hear your views :) Will point out these are already sold guys, so no pm's for these just yet please.. More will be done soon! :cool: James

Your ears will bleed mate... think how the kids will feel lol

Looking good mate, like the stickers under the bonnet :cool:
