Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread so it's all been bled through then mate? :D Nice work.

who the FCUK told you it'd be ok if you didnt rag it? If it's blown, it's blown. It WILL get worse and it WILL the loose compression and or water Hope it works out for you

brilliant. Nice ideas and done really well.

Not downloading anything. Now 110MB in FLOL Check back for up to the minute updates on how Mark One > Biohazard file transfer is going ;)

750Kbits/sec = about 75KBytes/sec ?? at the moment we are getting 25 Kbytes/second mate hmm. But we are 100 meg in now.....

bit disapointeed tbh. Was expecting an actual tractor withe some multispokes..... a possible 'chop waiting to happen ;)

You have blown the headgasket by the sounds of it. You are burning coolant and it's coming out the back as steam. Then your car has overheated because you've lost coolant and now theres a chance your engine block/head could be a little warped. bad times. On the brighter side, you have 172...

:o

I've got Virgin 10meg BB and other end is about 2 meg IRC? Internet relay chat? Edit: is it significantly faster than MSN, current ETA on MSN is 12 hours

I need to send a 1GB WinRAR archive to someone MSN is taking forever. Any faster way of going about it?

that's awesome mate! probably a first for a MK1 .. Is it a 172 item or is it ebay or something?

so what's the FWD world record. (and i want a vid ;))

right so, You have 3 faults 1)TB code that people are saying normal? 2) A brake code, but as long as your ABS is working ok nothing to worry about - people are saying that's common too? 3) You have a lambda fault and poor engine running at partial throttle. This points very very strongly to a...

no performance figures :(

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project mongoose are the tits on F7 engines! wonder what it'll sound like on the F4R.

yeah, it'll be easy. Access can sometimes be annoying depending on what tools you are using, but you'll get there. Stop asking questions and get on with it ;) you coulda had it done in a coupla hours.

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Nice progress whiteley. Good find on the rear brakes. You'll have to get this on the weigh bridge when it's done mate :)

those bays are just unreal. How they manage to rig them up like that is just beyond me. Not a single wire in sight apart from some HT leads.

Basically, ALL of the gearbox oil will come out regardless of how you drain it- . I'd say that's a pretty messy way to drain the GB oil tbh. I'd use the gearbox drain plug (same as sump plug but on the bottom of the GB - remove plastic tray). Drain it off nice and neatly. Then start to tackle...

fair enough. I just find it saves fighting the suspesion/ARB so much when putting the ball joint back. Don't have pics, but it's really obvious. They don't so much hold the shaft in as hold the gaitor sealing ring into the gearbox to contain the gearbox oil. Easy peasy

cool video. LoL@me 'Is that a 172 Automatic? He's not moving his left hand to change up?? .......ooooohhhh it's LHD!'

massive ditto. Also I remove the top strut>hub bolt for refitting as I find it makes it easier. edit: reply to above: There are 3 bolts holding it into the gearbox (so inboard). they are 13mm or 10mm iirc.

gearbox oil....that's the smell or a good days labour ;)

keep the 16 inch wheels that are on it, they look awesome!

if the clear bit was greyed out just a little would be perfect. Like

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project what's the story on this heated windscreen? ...or is that another 'wait and see' :D

agree 25mm is a lot, not sure about too much. I just think the 197 looks as though it's had wider arches fitted without having the track changed from the 1.2 models. Even though that's not the case....needs spacing;)

Is that Ktec car running without spacers?? 25mm spacers should be standard fit on 197s. It's the best way to improve the look of the car.
