    182 got low(ish)

    you got the front shocks re-drilled to fit the cup suspension? k-tec site says they're only available for the non cup

    Fitted these washer jets

    the c3 has a steeper windscreen like the clio, probably that's why they work better

    Pipercross Viper????

    I like the looks of that setup but I'm thinking that two 90 degree bends in the caf restrict the flow somehow

    Gearbox for 172 TURBO

    can't upload the jc5 template but anyway you get the idea. many things to work on now, mounts, custom driveshafts, flywheel, gear linkage and so on. can't wait to see the car run ;)

    Gearbox for 172 TURBO

    we decided to mate a 02M VAG box to the f4r like Scoff did. so started with the first step: templates for the adaptor plate: I think the new 6 spd box is a bit larger :D

    Is there a guide how to fit a pipercross induction kit?

    do your best and get a proper air feed to the filter. silicone elbow might be helpful. keep the filter clean and avoid excessive oiling. As I said with a proper air feed and a remap you might gain something.

    Fitted these washer jets

    maybe somethin clogged one of the hoses, maybe some debris you had in the tank, although I suspect the pump. take of the hose that leads to the bad jet before anything else imo and see if it's clogged

    Fitted these washer jets

    I'm not aware of such a guide but you'll need another reservoir for the liquid, the one from a normal 172, which has 2 pumps attached to it, then the hoses and the 2 bumper jets. not sure about the electrical stuff (wireing and stuff) but shouldn't be that difficult you mean the driver's side...

    Should I go for uprated engine mounts?

    I have the whole uprated lot. even for a road car it's worth doing in my opinion. You'll love it when givin it some ;)

    Top mounts...what are they all about?

    k-tecs are good quality it seems, I have 'em. but now I'd go for the AST ones as they're adjustable

    passenger footwell leak - gggrrrrrr

I think there is some poly sponge under or smth like that which in your case could be soakin' wet.. left like this it could take ages to dry A friend has a r27 and after about a week of rain both footwells were absolutely soaking wet, the carpet...

    Mark Fish Top Mounts + Gaz GHA's

    If gaz coilies go on with the std mounts and the mark fish/ast mounts go with std shocks then yes, they should fit. Drilling or not won't matter in the coilover/solid mount combo the k-tec ones also need drilling (can't remember if the ast/mark fish ones need to) they are all supposed to fit any...

    MPG problems? change your lambda....

    44.. WOW! I think I've never seen this kind of mpg's at 65!Am I wrong in changing the thermostat and the CTS before the pre-cat lambda? The engine seems to go up to temp when warm outside but in these cold days when cruising at above 60 it hardly reaches its normal temp (according to the dash...

    gearbox or driveshaft????

    I had this on my old R19, VERY annoying, happened to me about three times. it seemed like this circlip was the wrong one fitted and it also damaged the groove it sat on. To reach it you have to drain the oil and remove the driveshaft. Permanent fix? new diff (or Gbox? I'm not sure) if the...

    wouldnt crank??

    I think starter motor. I had the same problem some time ago. started from cold, then drove a little, stopped for a few mins and wouldn't start again! towed the car home and the next day it started as normal.. never had this problem since. (about a year ago) I also had battery problems. When the...

    Are winter tyres worth it?

    yes the difference is huge. I tried to go up a hill having summer tires on, and at some point when it got steeper I was hopeless. the next day I fitted winter tyres and came back to the same location. I even stopped where the slope was bad and pulled of with no hint of wheel spin. surface was...

    Question for a seller or somebody in the know with powerflex

    if it's from powerflex then it's the hard one. for the phase 2 you have the powerflex twisted dogbone bushes -purple colour (you have a phase 2 it seems)

    Steering pulling to the right after gearbox replacement but tracking is spot on????

    Re: Steering pulling to the right after gearbox replacement but tracking is spot on?? maybe one of the driveshafts is getting some resistance while rotating. If this only happened after gearbox change I'd suspect the g-box although it's odd p.s: new gear box or rebuilt? how much did it set you...
