Re: Titanium Ph1 172 Ph1's rule

Out of interest, which one do you prefere Jay? I love mk1 ratios, 3100rpm is 60mph lol

both look good :)

are you sure its not an air leak mate? Has the inlet manifold been off lately? Is the throttle body set up?

As far as im aware they are interchangeable, anyone confirm?

This. Iv never tried cigarettes or drugs, the last time I had a drink was in 2009. My grandad was a mechanic and my dad won his first rally 2 weeks after his 17th birthday so it's in my blood.

Well speed wise, my old 172 would show just over 120mph in 4th up Avon Rise at Combe, where as my friends Cup would show 110 at the same revs, so im sure the difference would be noticeable (if not huge)

Don't get black and blue! IT will stick out like a sore thumb and will be obvious they are seat covers. Ebay mate, cheapest place

Earlier ones (Mk1 Clio's) has issues with the diff circlip breaking, but iv personally never had any issues with Ph1 boxes doing that, (My black Ph1 was regularly tracked with over 190bhp and 140,000 miles) The ratios are different mind, the Ph1 box is longer legged - one modification I wanted...

I had a set of Halfords own seat covers years ago, plain black but they didn't look like covers and did the job well, if thats any help

lovely pics mate

lovely :)

Thats one big update! glad to here the issue was fixed!

I bet! When I was in Florida last October I saw a replica* - looked just awesome driving past

Bear in mind you just don't need the bare engine, box and loom mate, it's all the extras that go with it too, as you will need to uprgrade the cooling system, the brakes and the suspension. by the time you have changed all that, and diclared all of that on your insurance you will be paying...

Gross weight is the maximum the car should weigh with whatever it has inside it - ie the combined weight of the car itself, with all contence, an example being if you need to carry some big stones and they weigh 50kg's each, you can work out how much you can carry by taking the gross weight of...

looks like it's coming together slowly mate! Will be good once the dash is done, though at least if the bosywork is finished it will look like KITT to 80% of the general public lol

You will regret it ;) we all do lol. Whats next mate?

Where are you based mate? Danny above would be good to contact, as is BTM performance, Rentech, Cliospares for parts are very good

Is your engine damage definately terminal? As Revels has said above mate you need to join, but for the extras you get it's well worth the small fee :)

IMO I think it falls down to money and time. If you think the money spend on it would be better spent elseware then break it, and buy another one off here which has had £££ thrown at it - this also goes for time, if you think you won't have the time then it's better to get rid, buy something...

What dyno did you use mate? Unfortunately 99% of dyno's will give different readings - as Danny said above everything from the type/make of the rollers, ambient temperature, tyre make and pressure, how the car is strapped down, what gear is used - there are so many different things that can give...

Welcome mate :) Sorry to hear about your situation, there are plenty of traders on here who will be able to assist you, specialists and breakers on here are very good, id be contacting them :)

Just worked out mine has had a yearly average of 6,352 miles a year over it's 17 year life

If you want one that lasts, get a custom one made. Years ago i had one made by bells silencers, was no louder than standard (this was on a jetta gti) and lasted a good near ten years

it could be one of those or a number of other things, if you're happy with this prodrive guy then leave it until he has diagnosed it, otherwise id take it to someone kno knows these well, someone like Fred or Danny
