    What are these wires on the squib?

    There won't be as they come from the steering wheel not from the loom. If you plug them in there will be 12v between the red wire and ground.

    What are these wires on the squib?

    The above comment about the cruise control is wrong. That's a non cruise control squib, both yellow and green connectors are for the airbag. Grey is for horn on the steering wheel and the as Carl said the black and red plug into the stalk and are also for the horn.

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    @sburrell93 That's only because there are no new and shiney bits on this! I've got a spread sheet for this one so I keep myself in check; the total spend number is always haunting every purchase. @benji93 I am probably also playing mind games with myself. From a quick bit of nerd chemistry...

    Chilled Out Drive/Meet

    Happy to have a meeting around maidstone/tunbridge wells area. Might not go for a drive as the Clio is slower than a mobility scooter!

    Martin's Track Clio 182 Project Thread

    As always Martin it's looking jolly good. Especially those figures at the wheels being what a standard one would put out at the fly! Bummer about the gearbox though; could always be worse though :)

    Advice on "crash"

    Leave it to the insurer. @bearne1 I've never seen that; is it more of a "leave it yeah" when you think people are trying their luck. An engineer can't tell how fast a car was hit, these guys are trained in the repair industry, not crash analysis. He can only offer an opinion and never give an...

    The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

    Torquedevelopments on the same industrial estate (may even be next door) have a hub dyno and are the dogs gonads

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    @imprezaworks That filter was the single best mod to that car hands down. I had a ktec style induction before that. Nah, heat soak isn't really a problem with the grill there. Less pipe bends, better power :)

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    @Timmsy There's a guy just beyond Brighton who's breaking a 172 so probably has the remaining bits you need. APs should be with me Wednesday and depending on when I get back I might fit them very quickly :D @imprezaworks I'm glad too!! That intake sounds absolutely mean though! I'll get an...

    Harness mounting - what bolts/spreader plates.

    @M.C.. Cheers matey. I watched that video yesterday but didn't realise you could remove the buckles. Never lay my mits on a harness before. The plats just go on the otherside of the hole or do you have to weld them on? ps; where did you get that huge Renault Sport sticker on the back window...

    Harness mounting - what bolts/spreader plates.

    I think I'm being a total pen 15 but how do you actually go about mounting the harness'. I'm looking at getting some 4 points for my car which is going to have a cage in the back with harness bar. Two questions. Do all harness' have the ability to mount to a harness bar and if they do what...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    I'm sure a summer will turn into a longer term affair :D No worries. Lol, Lauren went around with a set of discs, an engine cover and a flywheel in her boot for months and didn't say anything! I can't remember if the headlining is the same but I wasn't very careful with this one; ripped and...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    ;) I'd forgotten about that! Not H&Rs but they'll do I suppose :) I do only buy bargains though. Shopped around for the door pulls yesterday just to save 20p. Today I have a little but rather boring update. Sunday was meant to be my work day but I felt brain dead so the product was likely to be...

    My brain wasn't working yesterday. Exactly £265.16 inc postage and fees!

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Got the APs for this car as at the moment it's on standard springs which make it really high. The photo with the green bits I also lowered it just to see what it would look like, then I got excited! APs are meant to be soft for track but I'll give them a go and if they are I'll get some stiffer...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Cheers Iain. Wouldn't do it for a road car but my inner child is going crazy because it's a track car! LOL The irony. It's okay, I didn't have a job then......ohh I don't now.....something went right though hmm. Nah I decided I need to enjoy at least a bit of the money I earned and Lauren...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Few little updates today. I gave myself a day off studying and decided to take a crack at a few jobs on the cup. There were so many things to do I really wasn't sure what to get done. The rear wheels looked totally lost in the arches so decided to sort that. I had some 15mm hub spacers from the...

    Rear half cage from ebay

    The plates the chap supplied are meant to be bolted from the underneath so the car is clamped in between them so there shouldn't be any welding involved. If you put the spreaders in the car I'm not sure!

    Rear half cage from ebay

    They bolt in matey. Drill holes for the fitting plates.

    T4RKO 172 Cup

    I might have missed it matey but what was up with the engine in the blue cup? Bet those bent bits make it a nightmare to pull it apart, chop chop chop!

    Gauge mounting - examples?

    I had exactly the same problem mate. There is hardly anywhere which doesn't look silly. I ended up doing this.

    Track car battery going flat - cut off switch?

    I just lock the car and unplug the battery every time I put it away. Cheapest solution although cut off/trickle charger is more convenient.

    K20 powered 172

    Lovely this. Good to see some things which haven't been done before. Using it as inspiration for my cup. What did you use to wrap the wire with when you ran it down the sides? Mine looks grim at the moment because it's all running down the sides still.

    Airbag total reset

    Did the rear seat belts have pre-tensioners in? If so you will need to program them out using clip or put in resistors.

    New from Medway!

    Welcome mate. I'm from Maidstone so happy to help if you ever need it.

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    I thought about that. Then there was so much to take out I decided to call it "quite a bit!" No progress on the car today but I've got a few bits which should improve it when I can access the garage. First was the heal toe throttle pedal from @NorthloopCup Then an OMP eco seat. It's base...

    Graham's summer 172 cup track car

    Made a start on stripping the car today. As I was last time, I'm surprised at how much there is to remove. Weight must add up to a fair bit. Rest of it will come out over the next week. It was just a little too wet on the ground today to get under and take the seats out. Wow this is an awful...

    Immobiliser issur

    That doesn't work mate. Look up the resync key proceedure. If that doesn't work just get a new uch kit for your car, n3 type. £50 off ebay.

    RIP My 172 Cup
