There is one under the scuttle hidden under the wiper linkage, really awkward to get to. That one caught me out. I think there is 4 accessed from the interior footwell. Pure motorsports aircon delete guide was useful when removing mine as it has a write up on removing the heater box assembly
I ran new wishbones on my hillclimb car for a few years, just changed to powerfkex black series over the winter but yet to drive the csr in anger due to covid and no season yet so cant comment unfortubately
May be better just to buy 2 x new cup wishbones and least you know then they are right and everything is fresh. Definitely looks like there is difference but may just be with the camera angle etc. Easiest way is to see the holes directly with the wishbones and ball joints removed
Ah, I thought you were referring to the size and shape of the ph1 airbox inlets which are both circular but it was the ones on the car
Like you said, most standard ducting is now really brittle and broken up, I still have it in my ph1 but it has started to part lower down.
I would just go...
Are air speeds and the flow characteristics really going to have that much of an affect on a relatively standard engine? You may just be over complicating things for yourself
I thought both the feeds on the airbox was the same, circular and the standard ducting has a plastic piece on the end...
And you'll have to do the belts on the replacement engine anyway so you would be aswell spend the money and time on your original engine as you know its history
Destroy your original engine, buy a replacement engine, throw a belt kit on it and fit itand then it throws a bearing on your next...
Cant remember off the top of my head when removing mine but wasn't overly complicated
Have you looked on the pure motorsport website at their guide as it is quite helpful
Does it look like the bolts hold it in, can you see a split on it where it would seperate if you removed the bolts on the side?
Bought some sealey sockets and torx / allen bits off their big container stand at autosport.
Some of their new stuff is quite nice and it came with lifetime warranty aswell
If you can get a trade card it really helps with the halfords prices
If the car is left outside you could use the solar panel trickle chargers to keep it topped up?
I have a ctek charger I use to keep my smaller pc680 battery topped up over winter, its on an isolator switch aswell so doesn't drain itself
That belt works fine for me using the turn buckle tensioner above with cup alternator and top bracket. Everything else is standard. Just remember run the belt 1 rib away from the engine as it can rub on the cambelt cover apparently
Are you looking to just delete pas rather than replace with epas?
If so then you can remove all the power steering lines along with the pump. And fit the following kit to your existing rack

The blanking plug...
I could be wrong though. One of them has definately been replaced and one seems original on the ph1
When I fitted one of each the handbrake seemed to have a bit more slack on the flat lever
Dont think so, my ph1 has both the rounded bars like the left type
When I replaced both calipers on the cup from dingbro I annoyingly got one of each type
Thats the air intake feed to the airbox. Better replacing it with similar ducting as the original item has become quite expensive, one on ebay last week for £130!
I have the carista one from amazon and now use the obd fusion app. Have used torque pro in the past aswell
Havent really had to use them in anger for diagnostics so cant comment, I use obd fusion for monitoring dpf levels mainly
Eliminates chances of fluid leaks which is a big plus point when it comes to track days and motorsport
Frees up space in engine bay and allows subframe to be dropped without the worry of hoses restricting you
For me it was the ease of maintenance that made me go for epas
Resistance can be...
If the misfire is currently present then easiest way is to unplug each injector to see if it has any effect on the engine, if no change then theres your faulty one
Surely the whole idea is to do away with jacking each corner individually and not to do away with axle stands?
Costco have these in stock for around £700, cant remember if thats with or without vat
If you have the space and paying £1200+ I woukd be going for a proper scissor lift
Have you access to a volt meter? Check battery voltage when engine is running, should see 13 odd volts if alternator is charging correctly
If you want to eliminate a bad earth, take a jump lead from negative terminal to a solid point such as engine lifting hook or similar. Does sound as if its...
There is someone out Turriff way but think its an older guy, just seen him mentioned on forums before. Not the best to get hold of apparently
Think most gearbox builds up this way end up getting sent away. Will you be removing box yourself or having a garage carry out the work?
Castrol fairly seem to have the market now when it comes to oem. Must be a big loss for elf as they seemes to have dropped out of the spotlight apart from the renaultsport world
Had a good look around it on friday at the show, interior full of sabelt and rs branding. Particularly liked the door pulls
Got them to pop the bonnet but nothing fascinating to look at there
