Great meet today thanks to "the Don" and Tom really enjoyed it!
Here's my pics the same as everyone elses excuse the poorness all the gear no idea;) lol
To start with i think this was perfect for today
At Renault wolverhampton
The pub (Red lion)...
Great meet!!! good to put names to faces and a brilliant turnout!!
Roll on the next meet!
lets hope we get a huge turnout at the RR day in autumn......
Steve my ears are still ringing and bleeding from the fly by on the way there your car is awesome:D
Shall upload my pics into the media...
182 manifold is a good mod on the 172 but i think you also need the 182 cat or de-cat, Putting a new (valeo) clutch in makes it one hell of alot lighter make sure you change the cable also.
the 182 inlets are near enough matched but iirc they are a diiferent fitment than the 172 ones...
Dogbone is fitted correctly and as j said other mounts are k-tec uprated ones and they are considerably harder compound over the O.E mounts so yes you will get a fair bit of vibration.
Plus they may need to be aligned properly.
Tom i know this route very well (even know where the pot holes are) its where i go for a sunday afternoon blast to chester zoo and back and its an awesome road! favoured by motorbikers coming at you on your side of the road!
alot of lorry and tractor traffic on this road so keep your eyes peeled
kam racing in the traders section but don't know if they supply them for the non sports? iirc they are different to the RS ones.
A phone call/pm will shed more light on it though;)
Plus the cheapest place for them at the moment
Apex 40mm springs----steer well clear
Apex 60mm springs----steer well clear
Or Budget decent coilys?-----no such thing
Sportlines or Pi lowering springs
