    It's not a proper sunflower. It's been resprayed..

    EPAS Conversion

    If you run the pump without oil in it, it will seize up and throw the belt.

    I'll get @cs_dave to invite me then. He is the area rep after all. :wink:

    @LeeRS if you organise this again and I can make it, I'll look after you. I used to do banger racing, so I know all the tricks. Got a lifetime ban for going in on the drivers door. :wink: Whoops. Genuine mistake. True story.

    172 Cup Stage Rally Car

    Ian speedy ran reigers on his rally Clio. You'll not go far wrong with those mate.

    Next time you do this @LeeRS let me know. Gutted I can't make it as I quite fancy a bit of karting! Oh and a weekend would be ideal, or a Friday night as I'm a night worker. :up:

    Too close to the baby arrival for me I'm afraid, otherwise I'd have come.

    172 Steering rack

    I've only ever seen the smi racks on the sports mate, so just get some bushes to suit the smi. :up:

    Gearbox refurb cost??

    I'm afraid i won't be able to help then I'm afraid mate. Lol! The only babies I push out are food babies mate. :wink:

    Gearbox refurb cost??

    Well it will all depend on how soon you want it doing. I've got a baby that's due on the 26th, so I'm not taking any boxes on for a few months.

    Gearbox refurb cost??

    Is it a jc or a jb box?
  15. NorthloopCup

    Gearbox refurb cost??

    As above as optical says, it all depends on what needs replacing tbh. It may only need a few synchros and seals (£90 ish) or it may need gears, synchros, bearings and seals (£380 ish).

    Which alternator output for a 172 53 Reg sport 75A or 110A?

    110a mate. The lesser amp one is for a cup.

    UCH Fault? windows

    Check the earth crowns aren't loose under the dash top mate. Seen them create loads of weird faults like locking/unlocking the car and the rear wiper moves!! Wtf?! Lol

    Inlet / rail guard

    I'd say no more than 15lbft on the bolt torque as they're only m6.

    Where to get engine speed signal from for shift light

    Assuming that the wiring is the same for this between a ph1 & the ph2, it's either pin 1 or pin 32. :up:

    Where to get engine speed signal from for shift light

    You need to take it from either the ecu or the coil pack wiring. There's 3 wires at the coil pack, but you don't want the thickest wire of the 3. The other 2 are the ones to tap into - you just need to decide which one to cut and join up with. I can try and find out the ecu PIN numbers if you...

    Best set up with RS2

    If you want to improve the torque, Grp n cam timing works very well with the rs2. If you're after peak bhp for the pub talk, then 197 cams are what you need.
  22. NorthloopCup

    Any ideas why this is making such a racket?

    That's the throttle body opening and closing. Check the wiring and the relay terminals in the engine bay fuse/relay holder.

    172 Cup Alarm Not Working

    Alarm fuse is in the engine bay fuse/relay holder. There will be a red wire going in and out of the fuse holder and iirc it's a 10a fuse.

    Spec Me : Track Day/Sprint Tyres

    I ran the new R888R tyre in 205/45 16 flavour. Awesome tyres and better grip than 888's. You won't get anything sticky in 195/45 16 so you'd have to go 195/50 16 for a wider choice. Kumho V70A's are worth a look as well. You can get those in soft, medium and hard compounds.

    Cylinder head advice

    Bigger doesn't always mean better mate. The later 172/182 heads are actually a better starting point. Big exhaust ports actually slow gas speeds down. My engine made 230hp on what were essentially standard sized ports on my 197 head. 197 head on a 1*2 bottom end will lower the compression...

    Gearbox Refresh, looking for overhaul kit

    What's your gearbox code? And what bits are missing?

    Nurburgring footage - a respectable 9min 19sec

    I'll never be going back again. Lol! I got my first cup down to 8:53 with full interior and the a/c on. :wink:

    Nurburgring footage - a respectable 9min 19sec

    Haha! I thought everyone on here knew that was me in the video tbh! It's been bandied around a good few times now. What you need to set a decent lap time at the ring are: Track knowledge Balls No traffic or bell ends. Unfortunately the latter is nigh on impossible now in tf as it's just far...
