    180bhp+ out of a 172.

    It was the boss (Hugh) that I used. Brilliant. He tears your driving to pieces, but in a constructive, gentle way. Ie, he doesn't make you feel like an idiot. There's some basic stuff covered (looking further up the road, positioning the car etc) but also car control, balance, and you find...

    Depends what you're after tbh. I've used these guys http://www.cadence.co.uk/ I need to book a day next year, might book them for a day on track as well.

    180bhp+ out of a 172.

    Tom has a point. I doubt there's many on here that have spent their hard earned on tuition (not just on track, road as well) as having something you 'physically get' for your money seems more appealing to most. It might be a good idea, but most would rather spend the money on the car, as they...

    As above, I would only go to Angelowrks.

    Big Brakes on 172

    Actually, that's 2 cars if it's who I think you're talking about! Didn't drive, went out as a passenger.

    180bhp+ out of a 172.

    The only place I'd get matched inlets from is Angelworks. Good luck!

    Big Brakes on 172

    Oh, and as far as pads lasting. Me and Fred changed my pads/discs dec 08. I just had to change the pads 1 week ago. 18k miles, and 7 track days.

    Big Brakes on 172

    I disagree, I was on track with one of your customers. No difference in stopping power. End of the day, it's a fraction over a ton! The standard set-up set shorter stopping distances than a F360 and a 996 when Autocar did the ph1 road test.

    180bhp+ out of a 172.

    Why bother tbh? Won't make a drastic difference (or massively noticeable) to the speed of the car. Do some trackdays, take some tuition, and you'll be far quicker than having an extra 10bhp.

    They're not required. End of.

    Rattle on the rear end

    The exhaust heat shield been checked?

    Odd misfire

    A certain T Hunter. 1st time all day he wasn't smoking iirc. (Must stress there's no blame attached, the exhaust didn't fit correctly!)

    Odd misfire

    You'll laugh when you hear who was driving it when the exhaust dropped.......

    Odd misfire

    That's what I wondered. Hopefully the sensor side, not the loom side! I'll find out tomorrow if that's the issue, if not I'll need to borrow a can of fuel, and some matches.

    Mine's working fine.

    wlliams or ph1 172

    To look at it from another perspective, weight is the enemy of performance. New cars get heavier and heavier.

    Odd misfire

    Not that I know of. Was running like a peach, until the exhaust dropped out of it's mount at Oulton on the RS day. Thanks for the offer. I'll most likely borrow the suspension and the new engine;)

    Odd misfire

    Ok, done so far: -New spark plugs -New leads -New MAP sensor -New coil pack -Cleaned earth points (except the one on the back of the gearbox, will do tomorrow) -Changed all injectors -Had code reader on, no faults registering Still f**king misfiring! Happens when cold and hot. Changed the coil...

    172 ph1 or ph2

    Having owned them all, the ph1 is my preference. The interiors not great, but easily rectified if you're bothered. Nearly the same weight as a cup, but you get ac. On 15's, which they work better with. Mine comes in at under a ton with only slight strippage. Throttle cable is just more 'fun' as...

    Earth points

    Apparently there are 2 earth points on the gearbox, I've found the one in the passenger wheel arch, whereabouts is the other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The life of... SharkyUK's Trophy

    As far as brakes are concerned, 4pots are overkill imo. I've been on track twice with cars running 4pots. Neither had more stopping power than mine (uprated pads/discs/lines etc). And fade's not an issue for mine (now I've bled the brakes!). End of the day it's a light car.

    New Suspension advise - 172 Cup

    Yeah, they ride/handle differently. The damping and springs are different. Basically the shell is koni, the internals are kw spec.

    Actually, this keeps happening when trying to post just freezes. The post/cancel buttons become inoperative, have to close it down and start again.
