Dragons breath on the wheels. It’ll shift nigh on anything.

Buy the proper straps ya tight fucker! 😂

Have the sensors been tested to prove that they’re working mate? Wired up correctly as well I assume?

Did we fit a gripper crownwheel and pinion lower final drive in your box mate? That may be one thing causing it as rpms/engine speeds/road speeds will be different to what the system was calibrated with. It’s not something I’ve had mentioned to me before though, but most people retain the...

Nah it’s not. It’s a fucked standard box as that will have killed the diff internally.

💪🏻

When I ran a standard airbox, I found that night heater hose out of the trucks fitted on the 2 inlets. I replaced both of those fabric pipes with the corrugated night heater hose and it allowed me to run them to better areas for cold air feeds. I even extended the fins in the bottom of the...

That’ll just be a gear issue. If it’s a bearing, it’ll whine in every gear mate.

They start to whine as first gear rubs on the crownwheel. They then just become a ticking time bomb. I’d imagine it’ll need a new mainshaft looking at the damage there mate.

Yeah see mainshaft bearing failures all the time now mate!

Efa

Yeah can do mate.

To sell mate

Funnily enough, I’ve got one in that’s done the same thing, so it’ll be converted to 182 spec.

I think you’re getting me mixed up with @Coops Mk1 mate

Oe gasket is a steel item and are actually very good tbf mate

That’s what I did as well. Lol!

Those bolts are properly FT mate, so the copper/aluminium won’t grip the splines enough, even with heat applied.

Apply heat using a hot air blower to the hollow bolt and you’ll be able to hold it in a vice without damaging the splines.

Only way to stop that happening is to replace 1st and 2nd gear with the updated kit @ around £250. Replaces the gears, synchros and selector hub. Also does away with that spring.

Mine sat for around 5-6 months without running. Lol! Graphogen ftw

Loads of reasons mate tbh. Oil pressure is one of the biggest reasons. And I’m being f4r specific here. They’re dire unless you put some work into the pump/clearances etc etc.

Hate to say it mate, but that sounds terminal I’m afraid.

Any noises when it cut out? Or just the lights on the dash and engine cut out?

I’ll be honest, it doesn’t sound like it’s got much compression on one or more cylinders, but the video is a bit to short to be certain.

Well there’s certainly zero f***s given about trading paint in that race series is there!! There were loads of opportunities to spin a few competitors out, and I definitely would’ve been that guy! 😂😂 That may well be because I used to do banger racing though. 😂

@Old Tarby! @Daniel

@Gareth Rallye you’ve advertised this in the wrong section as you’re not a paid member. To access the full privileges, you’d need to pay the associated membership costs. I think it’s around £12, so not a lot really. Thanks.

For 202k mate, it looks absolutely fantastic! And I agree on the sheep wheels - they just work so well on the 1*2’s

Yeah as above you need a Clio 172/182 aux belt pulley.
