I'm sorry I can't commit to this not happening lol, it gets boring sat at one speed for hours on end, trying to decide whether I should refit my steering wheel for the cruise control

I had this on my ph1 172, much fun :) I only used it once on a red light dual, works wonders as the clio can sometimes bog down if the revs arent right. I still found it span up a bit before making propper progress though, I think dropping the launch control 250-300rpm would help a lot

I loved my 205 gti, living on a knife edge with them round a back road lol

Are you talking about me here? I havent spun my clio trophy just pushed it too far to see its limits with lift off

It really isnt as hard as you think. Enter a roundabout to fast, power understeer, back off, back steps out, initial reaction is to brake if you dont have experience of it which only fuels the fire. I only spun my ph1 once, entered a roundabout way to fast in the wet, roundabout was covered...

The only time you prevoke it is when you know whats going to happen. Everyone has a spin once and it teaches you a lot when you look at the error of your ways. I used to have a lowered mini cooper s, I could get it to lift off oversteer whenever I wanted as it was so adjustable with the...

Fourth'ded ;)

Lol geddes you need to loosen up a bit man, ya sound like someones dad ;) I'm thinking 70-80 all the way should do, I'm not crawling along at 60

I dont want to say too much just yet, Valves are smashed, so is the piston, I need another new engine.

Lesson learnt mate, atleast I know this time it's going to be done properly and not taking away and fixed on the cheap after someone else's mistake when they came to do the belts for me.

The thing thats pissed me off the most is I've had it back now and started to enjoy it then it breaks again, ready to empty my wallet yet again for another £500

Do you have the pics of the rear ARB mate?

Lets just say its broke again, lesson learnt, don't trust people you dont know too well.

Dan its about £60 a night, well worth it mate. I will talk to you on friday, there's a few of us going there so you're more than welcome. Also after a heavy night on the booze in rocafellas you get more of a lie in as you pull out of the hotel and you're at the show :)

Yeah and set to cost even more but that's a story for later once issues have been 'resolved' With some of the work carried out

I attended the north east meet last weekend and sneaked off to get a few pics of my trophy with dan. His will be better quality than mine. I'm trying to get hold of a good stainless steel cat back exhaust as the car is booked in for custom mapping at Rs tuning The car currently has no rear...

Re: Austin-182 progress thread (2 years late) Wests renault sam, the lad who works there is in the traders section

Does nobody fancy staying at the Hampton Hilton, I stayed there last year and its literally a minute from the show, it's opposite the jet garage and has a players bar right next to it. I'm booking up probably this week sometime, k-tec, streamline etc stayed there last year as well

I did feel quite bad about not getting to talk to you lads like if I'm honest as it's been too long since we last spoke properly. I was just on a massive mission all day to meet as many new people as possible lol

LOL! I said hello to you all and out of all of you only anth and chatty replied. Not good from a so called 'mate' is it or are you still in a mood about the whole btb vs k-tec thing? I also didnt really see you making much of an effort just standing out of the way behind your car looking like...

It was to swap 182 matched inlets onto a ph2 172 then swap the ph2 172 inlets upper and lower onto the 182.

Are they the same? If not what is different? Cheers
