Lets try and calrify something. Was the car running right on the standard ECU? If so then the only reason the running issues has come up is beacause of fitting a second hand PFC with the wrong map on it. Also it was already mentioned that there were parts that had been removed from the car...

Get over to BTM for dephaser/cambelt. Fred is a top bloke. You may noticed me looking at your car, I was in the red, shed of puma.

Waste of money. Decat or dont bother.

Haha. Hello mate. Didn't think you were on here when I saw this thread. Car looked really good.

Would be great as the f4r would really suit this type of car IMO, I'd do it but I lack both the build budget and suitable chassis.

If you are serious speak to Matt at TDF, I've already had some provisional discussions with him along these lines and they can definitely help.

Yep. With bodies and dry sump it should fit though, but will be tight.

No off the shelf parts, ford mt75 bix and custom bell housing will work. What kit are you considering? Will be tight fit in a 7 type car even with dry sump.

Couldnt agree with that more! Cant wait for my car to actually look like a car again!!

Re: hi just been told ive aluminium bonnet advice how much its worth & are they any g No need for this really. They will have told you it's an aluminium bonnett ad it's a desirable feature and not all 172s have them. They are lighter than the other bonnets.

Primer ftw.

Knew I recognised that plate! Just spotted this car by the Merry Hill shopping centre on dudley.

Matts kit is rather sexy, I Wang them even though j have no use for them.

Good luck mate!

always fancied doing this to my 197. Looks good.

I have sky but hate it after being a virgin customer. I could pay the extra for hd and get sky f1 but I refuse to give them anymore Money and will stick with BBC coverage.

Welcome. Get yourself on a driver training day with someone like don palmer or cadence, you will learn a lot.

Ady (n2grafix) on here does the stickers. Halfords can mix flame red if you give them the colour code.

Winning :)

Re: Decision time. Help required... Voted White but 200s look best in racing blue.

English, do you speak it?

Intact it was 21st May 2005 ;) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?37755-Dark-blue-mk1-172

Would be about 6/7 years ago! God I can't believe I've been here that long!

Massive respect. Don't do too much to it, keep it simple and preserved!

I remember being hustled along by this exact car when I had my mk2ph1 1.6 :)

Def ronals

Love these, proper little sleepers.

TBH I never stick to the above and just put it where it suits, though my home (well garage now...) sub is designed to go in a corner anyway.

197 Cup doesnt have a beep, but does have a shift light. You could probably rig something up to the wiring to the shift light with a little buzzer of something but I really wouldnt bother.

I think that style of bonnet pin is illegal on a road car. I could be wrong though.
