I have the 2.25 mild steel stealth on mine. It's no restriction at over 210bhp, and that's with a cat

when you say high, how high? what are the numbers?

Both really. I Prefer the Janspeed branded systems to the Ultra range. there's nothing wrong with what you've chosen though

Planning to keep 2-3 in stock myself

we took 2 in the van last year

they have meat in germany...... screw taking it with you!!! REWE supermarket in Adenau is superb

not bad. not one of my favourites personally but its ok

We packed these in my Familys factory (I was too young to work there at the time ;) ) Had every version go through our house over a few years and I still have my +3 in a box

I actually want to cuddle you Phil

Same old chinese made crap I always got stuck with fitting on 200sx's as it was "cheap" Never had a manifold, turbo elbow, downpipe of full exhaust that didn't hit the chassis, crack or just generally sit not even close. Crap

Tried the new Ktec induction the other day. Made over 7bhp difference from a ph1 airbox, and an average of 5bhp over the entire rev range. Also tried a maxogen and it gained slightly less

Red area highlights where there is evidence of the sleeve moving Blue area is where the weld should be penetrating all the way along

and that too. Generally just not fitted right

can see in the 2nd pic that the sleeve has moved despite the weld (which is nowhere near enough btw) the sleeves are chewing up the bushes as they're moving around (IMO)

Most good dampers do that. Infact of the more expensive ones, Gaz are the only ones that don't that I know if. Non-linear damping isn't unusual

you working up this way any time soon? ;)

oh, that too LOL. This is nice stuff :)

LOL, we made it to 3 laps in a 200sx with £18 unipart pads before it gave up, but at that point it GAVE UP.

197 is expensive as the slave cylinder/release bearing must be replaced every time the box is removed and that part alone is ~£100 You're looking at £600

need to speak to you soon Pete :)

well remember that the rears sit in a different position to standard, so the leverage is different meaning that the spring rate is different. Burpspeed car is about 50/55Nm rear in the same position (well, was, they're running progressive's now) 28 point damping adjustment gives plenty of scope...

balljoint?

Missed your spring rate question before. Fronts are 60Nm, rears are 40Nm

172/182's were also fairly crippled by type approval regs, just in a different way

2 options IMO. K-tec (design was my idea, and executed by a former colleage who's a CAD genius) or AST's if you want the built in ability to add castor (but they have a really crap design flaw with the top nut and they get damaged by just tightening it)

well they're a track pad, so they're not compromised. You can always mod them to fit in with the stock shims I guess. 1144's come with a stick on anti-squeel backing (or they used to, not fitted any in over a year) but they're a road pad. 1166's are in a different league for noise, but they stop...

Speak to Rhys Beal. He runs Sachs on his 182, and he's been in and driven a spax equiped 172 on the road and on track

there's a lot more to change than just the main fuel and ignition tables, and there's far more to any mod than just a peak number. I think you'd be surprised

£985, with mapping optional. Have to see what the owner thinks of this one and what it makes on his local rollers compared to the before result first. They're a way off 438s though

Re: yokohama parada??? any gd I agree fully, I'm stunned by the way some people drive with no extra care in the wet Did 200 odd miles in a 172 with Federal 595 RSR's on in disgraceful rain and they performed faultlessly. Safest I've felt on the motorway in the wet, in a clio, ever.
