    what car next if J9 CUP is a written off??

    That looks AWESOME!!!! Sure I can re-ignite your enthusiasm for it once it doesn't leak from the sump

    vortex cat and mot

    I cut up a cat from the cheapest exhaust they had in the motor factor. Still made 209bhp with it on

    172 PH2 Head removal help - water in cylinders 2/3

    ones you took out are for a williams. It'll have run ok, but they're not ideal

    Wideband lambda

    EGT should be going in pre turbine, ideally just after the collector

    Cams

    not entirely realistic to health check before doing the work. Last one I did was running pretty badly when it came in and the cams were fitted at the same time as sorting the issues. Fixing the issues forst, then doing the cams would have been double the work for a lot of it (alternator change...

    R19 16v front g/box mount on a 172?

    as above. It's a popular thing to do on a mk1 which don't have them, but 172's have the exact same part as the 19

    New Microsoft Tablet

    Looks interesting but they're giving nothing away with the spec, suggesting it's nothing to shout about. I could probably find a use for a high quality windows tablet next time I need to replace a laptop, but i'm not convinced by this yet

    hahahaha erm, I might have told her to add you. She's on here but doesn't post. Don't worry, she beat me 73-29 last week

    Cams

    my price includes aux kit rather than just belt. That's the only real difference. That and distance. Oh and it's £1349 from me Cams £594 Cambelt and aux belt kits fitted £450 Extra labour and seals £55 map £250 (above is a guide to how I've costed it, don't take that as gospel or a mix and...

    No Power

    Lambda is still my favoured option, they cause so many issues

    Cams

    nah, I've seen the same figures of around 180 with stock airbox. 428s, and therefore GT's, are very mild indeed (exhaust cam is standard spec near enough) Biggest improvement was midrange torque, you could see this with the extra fuel requirement alone, but peak bhp wasn't ever a big jump. Bit...

    clio 172 brake problems!! please help asap.

    That ABS light coming on is a bit of a clue IMO, look for broken ABS rings

    Icemans Britcar Endurance project 182

    usually clutch slip. Very light flywheels don't act as much of a heatsink

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    lol, have i not mentioned it once or 15 times? :rasp:

    *Song Pop*

    inconsistent, i keep getting amazing rounds then missing really obvious ones. I'll reel in your 2 round lead though :p

    Are ph1 172 rear springs the same as ph2?

    will fit, but springs should always be fitted in axle pairs, just like shocks

    *Song Pop*

    just added you and then properly stuffed it up. 80s too

    Icemans Britcar Endurance project 182

    Just mapping required. You should see a bit of a power bump. What cams are you fitting? Just had a look, that's pretty scorched, is the blueing on both sides?

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    but no simple "change the throttle body" in that list?

    Icemans Britcar Endurance project 182

    oversized rings in standard pistons........just no. there would be so much piston slap, the bores would be dead in no time. If you're reboring, get mildly higher compression forged pistons

    Standard rear exhaust mount.

    that's the center mount only. The ECP ones are ok. Last as long as genuine. None of them are that great really, but the ECP ones are no worse than genuine. Some of the cheaper ones are really poor and fall apart in weeks

    172 cup ball joint?
