The Flame red 172 is mine, and that silver 1*2 was turbo or supercharged (more likely supercharged I think).
Mine is a 1.9 DCi etc, and needs mapping atm so certainly not that fast yet.
As I said, I love it on these wheels, looks so stupid.
Yeah I do need to trim that boost pipe, however I'm going to move the AFM once my K&N turns up, so going to do it then, in case I need to move that boost pipe at all. I did clean it Friday night!
Yeah, kinda helped, need to sort the front...
Wow, nearly a month since the last post.
Couple of pics from when I was building the exhaust...
I didnt get any pics with it welded, but its been on for a while now and its perfect. I could do with sorting a tip out, but I'll leave that for now as it'll act like a megaphone, on a already...
I didnt notice that mani didnt have a dent, the one I have here still has got a dent, I dont believe its caused by the ARB or subframe, its got to be factory, its too perfect and Ive seen it on loads, moreso later 182s.
Good progress though sir, need to see this car at some point!
I'm going to look into why Marks engine failed before I say fit ARP's. I know of plenty of engines that are fine without, and I suspect its not a bolt failure on Marks, but I shall see before I commite.
Progress will start as soon as I have space for two cars, so could be a while!
Could be a s**t bearing then.
Either risk it again with pattern, or IMO, the best option is genuine, which I think you can only buy the updated design now, which Is damn expensive!
Very nice! I don't think you'll regret that.
Needs a small spoiler for sure, but I'm sure you already have loads of plans for mods, and making it super clean.
Has been some properly good progress made in such a short time tbh.
Couple of bits... "Keeping it tidy", while the loom on the floor is a fooking mess.
Sideburns need to go too, I look like more of a hobo than usual.
I missed the sunglasses on that loom pic lol.
Not sure if the light would come on with an error, since I'm not sure how the EPAS controller works exactly, I thought about hooking up the diagnostics too it so I could see.
I haven't actually sorted the live at all for it lol, I really should :/ I haven't had chance to find a plug for the...
Very good sir.
Bit mad that the EPAS wiring is there, I doubt the loom has been changed at any time, I'd guess the cup loom is the same as a base model non sport so they just used the same loom, I think I can see the third plug for the column plug too? I'll have to check the Cup loom I have (If...
Danny I probs have a ESP swich somewhere, I'll check when I rmemeber.
I basically came in this thread to see if it was boosted yet, its not so I'm going to sleep.
