    Clio DCI wont start

    I wouldnt start there if it's not turning over. Can you hear the starter motor solenoid "click" If you continue to hold the key while the starter motor isnt turning, you build too much current in the motor and burn the coils. The starter may be damaged / it may need a new battery. Diesels are...

    Turbo project!!!

    I still can't beleive that you've managed to make a hole in braded oil hose, that stuff is really tough. Braded hose normally makes holes in other rubber hoses around it! Seriously though, just watched that video again in the second one you can clearly hear significant top end wear then as you...

    Electric RWD?

    You should be a little less serious. ;) You'd need to loose the rear seats probably, you'd need a diff (borrowed from an old ford or something), then the diff would need to be mounted and theres no room for that.....chop the car up and reweld. Then theres a custom trailing arm suspension setup...

    Best Jacking points on 172?

    my chassis legs made scary noises when i tried to use axles stands on em. Take it down really slowly. I now stand the car using blocks of wood on axles stands on the jacking points. Really annoying car to jack imo

    Turbo project!!!

    As soon as you loose the oil pressure to the journal bearings, you start to grind away at the big ends. You'd be very lucky if it lasted 20 seconds at reduced oil pressure. The metal on metal grinding forces are far less. I know it's bad news, but it's going to be the big ends. Crank regrind...

    ITB Thread #101 - reliability

    the box life is highly variable IMO. Really good oil of the correct grade and proper shifts with heel and toe will see prolonged life. Past 200lb/ft the box life is going to start to decrease. The shafts are fine, nout wrong with em Overall, i reckon the weaknesses in the 1*2 lie in the gearbox...

    uprated head studs for F4R-730

    why have you gone for uprated springs? Standard springs are good for plenty of abuse.

    Lambda/02 sensor...

    Clip won't detect a fubared lambda most of the time. Change the upstream lambda. It's unlikely the cat has gone.

    Gears feel heavy

    there is a plastic (yes plastic I know) bung thingy on the front of the gearbox. Unscrew it. Feed gear box oil in there or in the breather in the top of the gearbox until it trickles out of the hole very very lightly. any more and it's overfilled.

    Wheel Bearing

    right ok. Can we have a clear description with some punctuation. if the ball joints are gone then the symptoms can be things like juddering under breaking (can even feel like a warped disc). If it's really bad then the wheels will wobble a lot which will create all kinds of nasty noises and...
