Welcome to the forum mate :) I have had 3, one of them twice lol. The spec over normal 172's are: Scarab green paint grey leather interior (inc door cards) CD player instead of tape player BBS alloy wheels unique to the Exclusive The UK cars were numbered from 1-172 which is...

You won't loose much, but you will loose a bit I expect

I do agree - with stripped cars you need to keep on top of how the interior is - with a normal car, having some dirt on the carpets doesn't show - a dirty stripped interior looks terrible lol, but on the flip side a clean one looks fantastic

looking great Jon!

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner I had one (Was my 2nd business car I sold) and had done about 160k, but drove like new - no sqeaks or rattles, and pulled like a b*****d on boost

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner Pffft, ok Dan i'll let you off this once then x

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner Shouldn't you be at work Colshe? I know Potter isn't as he just hogs the inside lanes of most motorways in the evenings :rasp:

Awesome car is awesome

Spot on, makes a huge difference

About time you updated the mileage on your thread title too ;)

There are some handy pics in Tony and Jays thread mate, super easy to do

Agree with Jay, check the starter - it has to be something that is causing the starter motor to not physically engage if when you turn the key it does nothing. It could be the starter is a bit leggy and doesn't like working when it's hot - I have a spare one if needed x

Have you spaced the colomn down at all mate?

I think it's these two points which are causing the confusion?

I remember the state of your engine mate, was quite a mess

All I will say is this, do your own research on the forum mate - you will hear stories from both sides, some have had no issues, others quite large ones so it's best to have a look and form your own opinion I hope said company can pop on and give their opinions on this.

Great minds think alike I see mate ;)

I can take a good guess who's ahem, 'attempt' that was

I will have the cup engine out within 45 mins of you have the monaco lump out, thats the challenge i'm setting myself - which is no mean feat when you think you will have the Monaco's engine out in about 20 minutes lol

Dare I ask who mapped it......

New challenge then, we steal both ramps at your place, and see if we can get the engine out the monaco and into the cup in the same day - we can have a race on getting the engines out lol

Lol! Can I come down and have some fun ripping it apart? :D

Love it mate, can't wait to see it back on the road - for Combe in April? ;)

:o <3

Ah I did wonder lol x

Any inside pics? :)

Lol! You look about 3 ft tall in that :o

The cam comer doesn't need to come off mate, and it holds the cams in too so shouldn't be taken off on it's own

Nope, they just pull out - though they will probably need a very good tug to get them out (The rail will come out with the injectors attached

Depends if you think you need a solid mount or not - I have had them and they create a bit more vibration, but tighten the feel up slightly, but if it's a near standard road car I'd get a standard one
