Re: Cup TT ?? My only reasoning for thinking that the 20v is heavier is my car looks lower at the front than it did with the F7P in it, but it's not much, and my sh1t old suspension could be sagging. Deadlines flan.....horrible things :D, mine is 2 months overdue as is. Edit: flan Can i put in...

Getting really busy now so progress is slowing massively. But I've managed to get the car 6 miles (don't ask) to John Deeley to have my downpipe made up. Car is now back again and the downpipe just came off to have the lambda boss put in. It's all stainless, even the lambda boss. 2.5inch, then...

Re: Cup TT ?? I'd agree that the 20v is a little heavier, but it's no worse than having someone in the passenger seat. The idea of saying 300bhp miniumum is worthwhile is pretty daft tbh. You know as well as I that it'd fly with a mid-k04 tune @around 250bhp/250lbft. Subframe reworking can be...

just goes to show how bad the standard wheels are. really nice.

yeahp. AFAIK go cheap as they are all sh1te.

hmmmm. On a black car maybe edit: thusly

Re: Cup TT ?? 20v is it? common as muck these days :D

same colour.

good that P1ss easy too.

transport yes. 20vT goes in the back of a 172, and a F4R goes in the back of a 182. Fact.

the RAC/AA often carry them because they go wrong so often. If you have roadside cover, go out somewhere, tell them it's difficult to drive and they'll do a roadside repair for free

coil pack is a common one. But it shouldn't really be related to whether the engine is hot or cold. If a lambda is gone it does tend to be worse when cold and will not affect the car at full throttle or near full throttle. A common symptom is the car will not pickup at all so you squeeze the...

does it feel like it's running right? Any hesitance, particularly when cold? ALL my previous problems with economy have been sorted by a lambda change. That's not to say it's definitely that, could be a load sensor (MAP, possibly even air temp). They are not.

ditto all that. if it's 172, consider a 182 manifold at the same time

Make sure all your lines are the right length and your ready to fit. Remove the cooler from it's mountings and get it as low as possible. With both lines connected to the cooler, fill the cooler through one of the lines then connect it to the thermo-plate when you get it as full as you can...

this. I would

So in actual fact 197 build quality is worse than 1*2?? I'm pretty shocked at all this tbh. Really really bad. Wonder if the build is as bad on the meganes.

Cool vids, really enjoyed the last one, some great saves. What tyres did you have on it and what tyres did f0xy run? It looked like you were doing a little better for grip at times.

ooo that's expensive night out on the piss.

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project ouch, glad to hear it's ok.

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project yeah :dapprove: is it ok? pics?

I got a set from ebay for my 172. worst ever. Made by stevie wonder with sheep shears. sent them back and spent ages getting my money back. It's not all about value mate, buy from Ktec.

i'd tend to go out the top. get a crane, remove the rad to give you extra room to manovre, and lift engine and box out the top. Swap the box over on the floor (new clutch). The back in again. A few notes: Make sure you've got belt history on the new engine, or preferably, get the tools and do...

Like your CAT becoming saturated and failing your MOT on emissions you mean?

yes. Hai 3rd gear crunch here 172ph2. The gearboxes are pants tbh. Oil change didn't help.

175 bhp is h'actually hilarious. quite a good sleeper, but I don't buy cars from people who can't spell.

he is now fully incapable of driving without drift. Loving this marina pwnage recently.

hurts doesnt it :dapprove:

the fibre optic ends somewhere up the road. All the VM stuff runs off the existing copper cable (that is, if your house is on cable already). If your not on cable, I don't think they put one in specially.
