    Inspecting a gearbox

    It's worth a look when the box is out mate for sure. Lol! The joys of running them that low eh! There's another gb on for hubs btw.

    Inspecting a gearbox

    Not all 130's are the bolt in diff mate I don't think. I've seen a few where the bolt from the bolt in section has come out and gone inside the box. It gets in between the gears/shafts and forces them apart, a la, split casing.

    Inspecting a gearbox

    Is it the box with a bolted in diff by any chance?

    ABS removal (sorry another thread)

    Iirc a normal bias valve only drops the rear effort to around 20-25% minimum so you'll be locking the rears up under heavy braking. Your as well just running the cup bias valve. You'll also need to re program the abs via clip.

    Honestly mate it's just a suck it and see situation unfortunately. Wheres the crack in the casing mate? Any ideas what caused it?

    Inspecting a gearbox

    Nope. The ONLY way to tell its condition is to strip it and I guarantee you'll have got a worn 3rd gear anyway. Not seen one that hasn't done that yet tbh.

    Donington comments and criticism

    Sounds like you've probably reached and gone beyond the limit of your current setup then imo.

    Donington comments and criticism

    Tidy lap tbh mate. What's the spec of the car? What tyres are you on? Coilovers or eibachs/cooksports on standard dampers? You may have reached the limit of your setup rather than yourself.

    Koenigsegg one:1

    It's also the future! It just opens up so many intricate manufacturing processes.

    remove front arb for corner weighting?

    Flol! I nearly got done for the same thing but 'insufficient evidence' as the in-car camera failed!! Used to get pulled every week pretty much after that until I put a complaint in to the Staffordshire police head honcho!!

    Rebuilding 172 cup engine.

    You'll be fine using the 730 manual mate. All the tolerances are the same you see. It was more for reference that I posted my original post.

    Rebuilding 172 cup engine.

    Cup engine should be a F4R 736. 730 is ph1 and 738 is 182.

    rear wheels rubbing on bumper, help!

    Put a flap wheel on a grinder and remove the plastic off the bumper until you've got sufficient clearance. Or you could always put some camber shims on the rear end assuming you've got enough clearance on the inside. My 15's rubbed on the rear bumper so I just left them to remove the bumper the...

    rear rubbing et38 with 200 wide tyres

    I run ET35 15's on 205/50 888's and get rubbing on the rear. The tyres touch the outer edge of the wheel arch, but only under full compression. I get the usual suspects rubbing up front, but my car is very low. Not sure if there's much difference between a 200 to 205 though as I've had no...

    Stud conversion any good ?

    I agree as the stud has a shoulder that it bottoms out on when fitted into the hub. If anything you'll twist the stud by applying more load to fit it into the hub, which is equally as undesirable as over tightening the stud. The over tightening of the nuts when the wheel is fitted is the only...

    "NEO" 172 Cup Rally project with shiny bits on!

    Nice car and spec mate. Looking forward to your airbox as well!!

    Is removing arch liners and fog lights enough or brake ducts too??

    Personally yes I do. It directs the air to where you want it rather than just filling your wheel arch.

    Is removing arch liners and fog lights enough or brake ducts too??

    A lot of people attach a ducting hose to the back of the fog light cover and direct the air on to a deflector plate.

    My new 172 Cup track car.

    Impact sockets are actually softer than normal sockets so they absorb some of the shock loading that go through them. Snap on ones are definitely like that. Plus the chrome vanadium can chip off.

    Let me know what the measurement is between the ground and the front lower edge of your sill as well mate. Or wheel centre to wheel arch. Just wondering what ride height your at. :)
