    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Another quick video of me chasing a couple of mates in a 306 rallye and an MX5 :D

    Quick video from Anglesey last week - having a play with my mates Citroen AX :D

    RS2'd

    Ooof that is a nasty hole in the torque curve! :( Yeah I understand all engines are different - it just seems like the RS2 worked a lot better on standard engines and I planned to go for cams so went for the ITB's instead :) As I said no offense meant - I love the fact that these can be fitted...

    RS2'd

    Hrmm I don't mean to **** them off or start an argument. I honestly had the money saved up for an RS2 but then I saw a thread with a lad who had catcams and had an RS2 fitted and ended up with less power He suspected they couldn't flow air quick enough for the cams or something so sold the RS2...

    RS2'd

    Ermm I dunno? I didn't design them Lad on here had RS2 then fitted cams and found he couldn't get any power out of them and the mappers said the RS2 was too restrictive. He took the RS2 off and put standard inlets back on and got more power

    RS2'd

    It's a lovely looking bit of kit but a few people have found they don't even flow well enough for cams to be used.. this triggered alarm bells with me so I spent my money on Jenveys instead :D

    1000'th Post: My New Racing Blue 182 - Progress Thread

    YES! If anything I think they actually look better in yours than in mine - colour looks lovely So glad they went to a good home - I've never owned better seats and I'm still quite gutted about having to go to buckets LOL

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    OK mate - well i've paid the deposit and I'm picking the whole lot up on the 31st When I get the loom in my hands I'll have a good look through it and might post up some pics and see if you can help if you don't mind :)

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Weird - the loom is definitely supplied direct from Omex as their "Clio kit" and doesn't have a connection for a lambda So you recommend I get this loom altered and have a lambda connection put on it then get the ecu reprogrammed to use lambda for trim? I've got 2 narrowband's currently in the...

    Fitting Buckets to my 182. Swapping over Pre-Tensioner - Connectors

    Nah when I put the resistors in the lights went off on their own after a few seconds :) Glad you got them sorted mate

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    It's not the one your thinking of - it's been on the car for 6 months+, made 193bhp and there was no running issues with it while it was on the road :) Looking at other threads people have rang Omex and Omex themselves have recommended running without a lambda. I'll have a word with my mapping...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Just spoken to the guy who's stripping them off the 182 They don't have a lambda plug on the loom and run without the lambda connected Seems fairly standard from other threads I've read - so that's one less thing to worry about LOL

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Thanks mate - been reading your progress blog last night. Looks awesome I wish I had the balls to rip all the standard wiring out LOL If the plug on the lambda sensor is different I'll grab the lambda off the 182 that the Jenveys are currently on and swap it for my standard one - probably gonna...

    Fitting Buckets to my 182. Swapping over Pre-Tensioner - Connectors

    The sliders are individual mate and linked with a renault bar that has that plastic handle on it What you do are unbolt those from your seats and bin the renault bar - use the recaro one that was on the seats I gave you - that spaces them out to the right size for the recaros It's pretty...

    Fitting Buckets to my 182. Swapping over Pre-Tensioner - Connectors

    Hi mate Sorry you're having problems - I'm afraid I can't help as my 172 never had this sensor at all :( There's lots of other 182 owners who have fitted recaros (trendlines usually) so I'm sure they'll know If it's any help though the recaro adaptor brackets on those seats are bolted to my...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Cheers matey - just replied to your PM. Might have to get the MOT'ers details off you for when mines due in march I didn't really want a big discussion about whether Omex is the right choice - not being a dick or anything to the people who've replied but it's very cheap, comes with a plug &...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Silent Scone - the thing is mate I'm NOT buying into management now. I'm getting a VERY cheap omex 600 with a full loom that's totally plug and play Second hand it's worth £3-400 on a good day. It would cost me at least £1k to get an EC-1 or a Gen90 - and then I couldn't easily get that mapped...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Oh after sitting and reading some threads apparently the two wires you have to splice are for the crank sensor - still not the end of the world. It's only 2 wires?
  19. Cup_Phil

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Why will I be splicing into looms? The omex has come with an omex loom - the only parts where it was spliced into the 182 loom was for the Lambda sensor So I was gonna chop a lambda sensor connector off a loom and get that attached to the omex loom - plug and play :D

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    What sort of "world of potential problems" would it possibly solve other than putting out a few LED's on the dashboard? The omex 600 is still a very capable ecu for running the engine - it would cost me at LEAST another £700 to go for an EC-1 or GEN90 :(

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Yes I've bought Jenveys, loom and omex 600 already mapped on a 182 making 193bhp I'm hoping to fit it and get the map tweaked for mine - and it's cost less than half the new price It's not really that my budget expectations are lower - I have the cash. But I don't see the point in selling the...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    There are many reasons I don't want to do that. The primary of them being a very good mate of mine is one of the best mappers in the UK and works just across the road - he used to be an omex/dta dealer and now works mostly with pectel. He can map it for me on an omex/dta and when I get cams I...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Hrmmm I did look at the Gen90 as I quite like the idea of a plug+play solution - but it's a lot of money over the price of the omex I've got In fact the extra it would cost would cover the cost of a race-technology dash2 and an omex 600 interface cable. Then I could bin off all the...

    I believe you can get an unlock code from Henk which allows it to work on any vehicle with an OBDII port :D

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    That just says it will fail if a warning light is on - not that they check to make sure they function From what I understand it's the coilpack and engine management light that sticks on My only other option is to bin the renault ecu, loom, uch etc.. and fit a stack dash system - but that's a...

    ITB/Omex fitting questions

    Hi, I've got a few questions about fitting Jenveys and an Omex The wiring looks easy enough - only thing that needs splicing into the omex loom is the lambda sensor if I'm right? The dashboard lights - apparently you get quite a few of them stuck on. Is this a case of remove the dials and...

    I primarily use my 70-200mm f4 for track stuff and love it - I just wish it had a better aperture so I could use it for portraits and stuff also. Plus I'm selling my 70-200mm at the weekend to fund some car bits lol

    Thanks mate - I'm heading over to north wales next month to do the WRC - really fancy playing with something new EDIT: Wow! £90 for a 70-200mm 2.8 IS II with no deposit for 7 days. That seems too good to be true!

    Who do you hire lenses from Dan? I really want to rent out a 70-200mm f2.8 before I spend £1600 buying one lol
