Very nice mate. With the scratch on that front bumper you could sand it down and blow a bit of paint over it yourself, being at the bottom of the car it'd never notice and tidy it up a lot.
Glad I checked this thread, as I was about to do my green lip yellow, yello and silver side badges and a...
The sensor should be cheap and easy to fit, so its not a bad first port of call, but TDC sensors normally cause random cutting out when coming to a stop and not starting, but giving it throttle does not normally sort it.
Something such as a bump start may help a TDC sensor problem, as it...
Looking good mate really really clean, actually quite like the pillar covers, don't think it'd work on anything but black though...
Needs some black or silver o.z f1's and it'd look epic.
Could you do me a favour and ask your mate how much he'd want to spray up a cup spoiler for me?
LOL!!! Ni-on 6 months and not showing, if you "don't know" its there, its all fair game I suppose.
EDIT: These cars you run around always look so mint Steve, I have no idea why I didnt get you to source mine???
Very noice mate, where did you get them from??
Sell MikeB your seats, you'll make his day! I'd buy the rear doorcards if you were stripping it too. :)
I use orpington Renault normally mate, used to be one in sidcup, but it closed, I think the only ones closer to you than Orpington are over the...
Shame mine'll still be quicker, Ph1's are faster and all that....:rasp:
Disclaimer: I will probably get pwned due to only owning the car a month and the fact yours has had quite some JMS love.
Definately not T5, (I was sad about this)
Trophy looks damn mint, CS sticker in the rear window.
Whoever you are, I'm hurt you chose not to park next to the ph1
Ah mate, I had no idea who it was for a minute, was the worst timing to see you EVER though....
You seemed like you wanted a bit of a play, but I had my misuss (not a problem) and her pregnant friend (see the problem) in the car, so really couldn't.
Glad you like the bumper, another member...
I'll take the spoiler off yours mate... pwease!
Cup looks like it was tidy, oh and that new steering wheel is MINT.
I think these leather aftermarket wheels look SO much better than the seude alternatives which go shiny and 'orrible after a short period of time.
Iceburg looks so much better...
If it was the TDC sensor, taking the key out and putting it back in would make no difference. Things like bumping it etc are all that affects it, as it often moves the sensor around and sort of fires it back into life. Even just wobbling the thing whilst trying to start the car normally works...
If you send it to me I'll upload it somewhere people can just DL it from. Unless you don't want it being publically available? In which case, can I have it via PM anyways :)
Re: Project 172 **** ITB'S - 204bhp *** February Redline Feature
How much were the pads/discs Ben (if you dont mind me asking)?
Also are they more appropriate for track or road?
Love this car.
Cheers mate, first one on here (apart from Danny who was there when I fitted it) that likes the ph2-ness!
The BMC was on the car when I got it, it was all I had known, but this feels so much better, very impressed, cheers.
Although I didn't get the filter spray either... lol!
Back from testing out the JMS setup.
Result: VERY positive!!!!
To say its noticeable from my BMC CDA is an understatement.
The car pulls better, harder, and from lower down. 100% not placebo on noise or anything as my exhaust is so loud I can't hear the b*****d anyway!
The car drives better...
Oh and if you stuck that CAF pipe in the 172, you deserve to be shot, the thing took me like 20 minutes to slowly pull out, whilst destroying my hands!!!
Time to go test the JMS kit ;) Back soon.
Yeah I've got one lined up, I think I'm going to buy it and then just see if I can fix mine, if so I'll sell it, if not I'll fit it.
Daniel, LOL! What is it? Official 2.0 f**k up week?
