Bleugh.

That's not the 'undertray'. The undertray as known on here is the big plastic bit that covers the hole in the subframe. Held on by 4 10mm bolts. I've got three kicking around from cars I've broken. PM me if you need one..

Phenomenal turn around, as always. Stunning results- that metallic is gorgeous! Those wheels are utterly horrible, mind.

You can use a 172 exhaust with no problems, you just have to get the correct link pipe bought/made up. The biggest pain in the arse is actually fitting the manifold.

What car is it? Where are you? I change gearboxes for pennies. Based in Chertsey, Surrey but can come to you if the money's right..

Edited the ad straight after sticking it up.. Oddly, I've never used his services.

Who's managed to f**k off their missus' for tomorrow then? 1. Budgie 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

PMSL. Don't know what you're talking about! (;

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3634704.htm Seen a 540 that i don't think I can pass up, so i'm regretfully sticking this up for sale. Bit of a local hero with all of the Failsport bunch. Rightly so.

Love that!

Don't you worry. If for any reason this little ***** doesn't make it until LM, something equally as big if not bigger will follow. (Who am I kidding?! I'm probably going to keep this forever.)

I WANT that plate. Well, I want a car new enough to put it on first, lol

So, this little **** only went and made 204.7bhp at SRR last month! Meant to have had 193bhp according to BMW, so rather happy with that. Not got the graph to hand, but i'll get it posted up soon. Oh, and it loves the snow. Sainsbury's car park got a visit at 2am last Saturday.. Been offered...

Money would be better spent on ITB's/R888's/anything that makes it quicker rather than changing the ratios.

Anything is possible, but it would cost more than you'd save in fuel in 100 years of driving the car.

Odyssey. Any other colour than Titanium silver on a Ph1 is rare, lol.

Not always, my man.

What a hero!

New engine and mounts?! Why did you need a new engine and mounts?

Sounds like an epic night, gents.

If he's got no reciept, you should count it as not having had the cambelt done. Sounds expensive considering you'll need to add £450 for that..

As above. Unless it's currently more than -18, you should have no issues. I only ever mix my coolant 1/3 coolant to 2/3 water and it's fine..

Membership is well worth it- decent for sale sections, guides to tell you how to do everything, traders sections, local meets (where you from in Surrey?) and discounts with certain companies.. Nope- you have to spend at least £500 before you see any noticeable gains, and even then it's not much...

Avoid expensive aftermarket induction kits. Waste of money. Spend the money on better brakes, suspension upgrades and petrol. The engine is already as good as it's going to get without spending BIG money. If you have to get an induction kit, get either a Ph1 172 airbox of Espace V6 box.

PMSL. There should be a metal floor. On a 172 cup, it won't have a spare wheel well as i remember. Must be f**king loud when driving.

Nope seperate bolts. Give Fred a ring- he's local and i bet he's got a few spares kicking about.

He's had more than one go at it, you can see that much. Either way, it's awesome.

Tomorrow? 1. Mike 2. Hallam 3. Bigman possibly. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10

That's just right. Maybe even a touch too low at the front for me, but i'd always aim for go, not show.

It sounds ghetto, but get a small spirit level (even one on the iphone) on the face of the hub. That will give you a rough idea of the camber on the wheel. Either that, or bolt it on loosely, then place the wheel on and inspect.. Make sure both are the same, even if you are running serious negative.
