Just the ph1 I think. My bonnet is already de skinned anyway so I don't have any worries.

I suppose I'm the best to answer this! What you've read is correct mate. Tap the 197 head to convert it to the 1*2 belt setup. Be aware though, the tensioner stud is higher up than the 1*2. It doesn't make much odds to the belt tension tbh, but thought it was worth a mention. Everything else is...

Flol!

Is that what you paid for the ph1? Bargain if so!

That looks awesome mate! Good f**king effort!!

Looks spot on to me. If the rear axle hasn't been shimmed, it's one of the straightest I've seen! Lol! Camber wise as well.

They were on a school trip to do some sightseeing I assume. You get a lot of people in cars that are sightseeing as well.

Very lucky to walk away! Yeah will do mate. Be a couple of weeks time I'd imagine, but I'll be in touch. :up:

In the 10+ years that I've been going I've only had 1 close call and that involved a blind entry/exit in a vxr Astra at 100mph and a coach. Full of school kids on a day trip. They were happily waving to me completely oblivious to the fact they could see that my eyes were on stalks and I was...

Standard UK insurance no longer covers the 'ring as they've got wise to it. They haven't done for the past 10 or so years. You can get specialist cover though through some companies.

Armco was at one point in time €60 per mtr to replace at the ring. The Armco is also 3 high in some of the big accident hotspots. So to put it into perspective, the average accident required the replacement of around 60-80mtrs of one tier............... Factor in the cost to fit the Armco, the...

I would imagine they will yes, but unless you can find definitive information regarding the stroke I wouldn't like to say 100%. I'd be 99% confident though, as no one in their right mind would totally redesign what is an already existing engine to that extent.

Ah right ok. I'm in Lichfield now mate. Living it up with the high society and brummie accents. Flol!

Where are you then if Donington is 10 mins down the road?? I used to live in Swadlincote and Donington was only 15-20 mins away.

Ha ha! Nothing! You'll do it out of love. Oh and the fact that your forged engine build won't get any help. Flol

Lol! Now all you've got to do is keep quiet about the combo!

No worries mate, and congratulations on the marriage! Wiring would be coming along better if I could be arsed to go in the garage. Lol! How cool is that about your dad! Kudos mate!

That happened at one of the fastest sections on the Nurburgring, so we are talking 145+ in a megane before it went wrong. I'd take a punt that he lost it on the hump in the circuit (flugplatz) just before you start the entry into the corner (aremberg). Very nasty crash and extremely lucky people!

Yeah it's a shame mate really. Had/has potential to be a really good bit of kit.

And even that's not big enough imo. The space between the bellmouths/trumpets is to close to the plenum wall as well so it alters how the air is drawn in. When I had mine I was going to fit a reverie carbon plenum that's substantially larger with more space for better airflow. Bottled it when...
