    Phase 1 172 sprint & hillclimb car

    Ah nice one, I will be very interested in how our times compare as I think to be competitive in the modified class will cost a fortune as most run lsd's , throttle boddies and cams etc which will cost £5k. I was going to enter the standard class but didn't think their would be many entries...

    Phase 1 172 sprint & hillclimb car

    ^ would if I could! Tried it when I used to rally but it's very difficult and even harder to be consistant. Rear anti roll bar may be worth a go.

    Phase 1 172 sprint & hillclimb car

    Lol at wobbly camera! Understeer was a major problem , it turns in well but on the really tight u bends it just lights up the unloaded wheel and then spins a fair bit into the following straight loseing lots of time. Desperately needs a diff but can't decide on a final drive but the price of...

    Phase 1 172 sprint & hillclimb car

    A quick update as I have just painted the wheels gloss black, not original but gives me an idea which colour to have when they get refurbed. Also I am at 3 Sisters in Wigan tomorrow (sun) and Aintree next sat if anyones in the area.

    STD 172 PH1 airbox

    Sorry my bad. when he took off the superchip map and put a standard one on when he did te first run the mixture went very weak due to the amount of air taken in probably down to the shorter inlet tract

    STD 172 PH1 airbox

    This works well..that well that Paul at rs tuning said how much it made mine go weak when he mapped it last week. You can fit it all in the engine bay as well.

    How much does the stuff removed weigh?

    Fancy alloy alternator setup

    Looks like quality motorsport components. I assume the weight saving isn't including all the redundant aircon stuff either?

    172 Cup Rally Car project for BRC Challenge

    ^ ah thought it may have been a problem with the diff itself.I think there are some threads about the groove or circlip causing problems, I'll have a search around. What do you think about the performance of the diff and what setting and final drive did you opt for? Thanks
