    The Odyssey (Phase 1 172) - By Coops

    Couldn't you just spray the fog light surrounds? I've sprayed mine satin black, as I wanted to re-paint the brake duct trumpets as they got stone chipped but glued into the light surrounds. Doesn't look any different to standard tbh.

    Kit's Ph1 172

    start off with some bad stuff.....had a phone call from my brother the other week (the last time he called me was when my dad was rushed to hospital a few weeks before so I was sort of worrying) as his girlfriend drove into the Clio. Great. The car is at the back of a driveway 4 car lengths...

    Horn Buggered

    One of the horns could be at fault. Mine sounds pathetic as only one is working. Try to clean up any electrical connections to see if this helps to get it working. Prob best bet is to replace, can't be that expensive for a second hand one.

    Ad08r cheapest tyre supplier?

    Are they stolen to be sold at that price??! That is quite cheap.

    Ad08r cheapest tyre supplier?

    I was quoted £80 each (15") the other day from a tyre place in Gloucester, sure that was a fitted price too. Black Circles were doing them for £86 each fitted £130 delivered from Demon Tweeks on eBay (that is the right size, isnt it??)...

    Side Light and Indicators in One Bulb...hear me out!

    I am making an cold air feed that runs through the main beam on the Ph1, but the hose will block the side light bulb and it wont be seen. I have looked at cutting a second hole in the light unit for it but it requires a lot of cutting and then I am not sure it will work. My brother then...

    The Odyssey (Phase 1 172) - By Coops

    Everytime I see an Odyssey Blue Ph1 it makes me regret not buying the one I had the chance of buying before Christmas. I have a sneaky feeling of kept standard and in a good condition the blue ones, along with Flamers will hold their value. I WILL OWN A SECOND Ph1!! haha

    [Apr 8, 2017] Spring Action Day (Castle Combe)

    I'll come along. Just need to find out what my step dad is doing. Any objections if I get him a ticket as well? He will be in an E36 328. I will also be out on track at least once.

    The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

    I think I also saw this one for sale and looked like a really good spec, just too far away for a quick look. What are the plans for it? Keep it standard or track?

    The PH1 172 Appreciation Thread.

    I know the feeling!! I want a second one. Should have bought the Odessey Blue one I looked at before Christmas and convinced my step dad to help put a new engine in and mother to have "another broken car" on the drive way.

    Kit's Ph1 172

    It's been a while since being out on track. I did think I would do more last year so hopefully this year I will! Just can't have my step dad be quicker than me in his E36!

    Kit's Ph1 172

    It's from eBay. I search for "calliper paint orange". Tbh I don't expect it to stay that orange for long! Just something to add a bit of colour behind the black wheels. Glad I did the second coat as the first wasn't quite thick enough. Just need to use the car to clean the discs up as they are...

    Kit's Ph1 172

    No...because they haven't been made yet! I removed the fogs and put in trumpets the other year but not put any ducting in (to cool my inner arches haha). I've bought some flexi hose stuff to connect the trumpet cone things and just going to cut a hole in the arch lining. Hopefully will get them...

    Ph1 Cold Air Feed Light - ideas

    I want to put a cold air feed by taking out the N/S main beam and putting a pipe through the light (because race car). Still want to run the car in the dark so need lights, other wise I would source some light blanks. I have a second light unit I have started to take apart - so far it is pieces...

    Kit's Ph1 172

    Fw more jobs done this weekend. I know painted calipers are not the usual thing to do and people tend to hate them. When the wheels were black I did find the car looked like it had nothing in the arches, just black voids. So I want to still have a small bi of colour there so decided to paint...

    Pas leak 100 miles from home

    Mine did exctly the same thing last summer, also when I was going to sell it! It turned out to be the High Pressure PAS pipe. I did drive mine when it was leaking but checked it before and during the journey back home and did top it up along the way as I didn't want to cause any more damage. It...

    Kit's Ph1 172

    The job list is slowly going down! Both front arches have been cleaned. Just waiting for the ducting to make my brake cooling stuff then I can refit the arch linings. About to order new brake pads, gear box oil and brake fluid. Need to wait for a warmer day to finish off the painting parts...

    Bumper and arch lining fixings

    Sweet. I'll be paying Renault a visit then. Do you have a part number for these @Mar172 ?

    Bumper and arch lining fixings

    Do Renault sell all the front bumper and arch lining fixings as like a job lot? I'm after all the screws, including those metal clips they go in, bolts, the plastic push things in the arch linings, the lot Somehow most of mine have disappeared over the years and with it all off I thought I would...

    Wheel wax???

    How hard wearing is that Raceglaze stuff? This looks very easy to apply too. The adverts and descriptions I've seen for the Mint Rims is a bit clearer and states high temperatures. I'm not into car detailing so was after a few product names to look for.

    Wheel wax???

    Need to treat/coat my new wheels. From recommendations from my brother who loves cleaning cars to go with the Gtechniq C5 sealant (I've used a few of their products and like them a lot) and then he suggested also using a hard wax on top. He used Poorboys Nattys Paste for the body of his car but...

    Kit's Ph1 172

    Got a bit of work done over the past few weekends. Took the arch liners off and was presented with this mess ALl cleaned up now. One reason why I wanted to do this job was to remove the 16 years of grime and to have something that looks a little flash Will be givn another once over before...

    mintno1's PH1 172 Progress Thread

    Have a look at Renparts on eBay for injectors. They are a very good price, sub £35 each if I remember right. Im sure I paid less than £95 for three last summer.

    Ph1 172 misfire

    Have you checked the wires going to the coil pack? As it looks like mine have been trapped, probably by the inlet manifold, at one point as there is a small repair on them. Also is it just a mussfurecat idle or over the entire rev range? Could try and see if there is a spark on this cylinder...

    Ph1 172 misfire

    Same as in what....the missfire is still on the same cylinder or the missfire moves? IIRC there is potential for the fuel rail gaurd to clamp the injector wires if not in the correct place so this could be an issue.
  27. KitsonRis

    Ph1 172 misfire

    If you have unplugged an injector and the idle is no different then it's a dodgey injector. Have you tried to swap an injector around - swap this "bad" one for a good one and do the same test. If the problem still exists on the same cylinder then I would say it's the loom/wiring/things to do...

    Ph1 Throttle Cable Replacement...help and advice

    Gains on what? The enlarged TB or ITBs? As minimal for the enlarged one, but with a re-worked butterfly etc may help the sticky issue if there is scoring/marks on the inner surface which will be bored out. I have a power figure I am aiming for but other engine work is being done this year to...

    Ph1 Throttle Cable Replacement...help and advice

    I swaped the TB for one that was known not to stick. I think gudger12345 is still breaking his Ph1, the TB might be available on this. (Or if you can wait about 18months I will have ITBs by then and my TB will be available.....) I still have the sticky one which I keep meaning to take apart for...
