Definately not T5, (I was sad about this)
Trophy looks damn mint, CS sticker in the rear window.
Whoever you are, I'm hurt you chose not to park next to the ph1
Ah mate, I had no idea who it was for a minute, was the worst timing to see you EVER though....
You seemed like you wanted a bit of a play, but I had my misuss (not a problem) and her pregnant friend (see the problem) in the car, so really couldn't.
Glad you like the bumper, another member...
I'll take the spoiler off yours mate... pwease!
Cup looks like it was tidy, oh and that new steering wheel is MINT.
I think these leather aftermarket wheels look SO much better than the seude alternatives which go shiny and 'orrible after a short period of time.
Iceburg looks so much better...
If it was the TDC sensor, taking the key out and putting it back in would make no difference. Things like bumping it etc are all that affects it, as it often moves the sensor around and sort of fires it back into life. Even just wobbling the thing whilst trying to start the car normally works...
If you send it to me I'll upload it somewhere people can just DL it from. Unless you don't want it being publically available? In which case, can I have it via PM anyways :)
Re: Project 172 **** ITB'S - 204bhp *** February Redline Feature
How much were the pads/discs Ben (if you dont mind me asking)?
Also are they more appropriate for track or road?
Love this car.
Cheers mate, first one on here (apart from Danny who was there when I fitted it) that likes the ph2-ness!
The BMC was on the car when I got it, it was all I had known, but this feels so much better, very impressed, cheers.
Although I didn't get the filter spray either... lol!
Back from testing out the JMS setup.
Result: VERY positive!!!!
To say its noticeable from my BMC CDA is an understatement.
The car pulls better, harder, and from lower down. 100% not placebo on noise or anything as my exhaust is so loud I can't hear the b*****d anyway!
The car drives better...
Oh and if you stuck that CAF pipe in the 172, you deserve to be shot, the thing took me like 20 minutes to slowly pull out, whilst destroying my hands!!!
Time to go test the JMS kit ;) Back soon.
Yeah I've got one lined up, I think I'm going to buy it and then just see if I can fix mine, if so I'll sell it, if not I'll fit it.
Daniel, LOL! What is it? Official 2.0 f**k up week?
Sounds that way, although how does it feel in your hand? Mine REALLY snaps back....
You looked inside the TB for signs of the butterfly catching? Couldn't see any one mine, but have seen people complain of this.
I hit my spring with wd40, through the "straw" and quite a bit of crap came out, higher pressure on the spring would help even more I'd imagin. Definately not just need greasing up Jord?
TBH I think mine now needs taking right off, carb cleaner, dry, grease, LOTS, try it then.... but whether I...
Ok throttle body chaps, after cleaning it at the weekend, I felt it was getting worse, on my lunch at work today I got some wd40, sprayed it into the TB at the rotation points of the butterfly, and onto the springs, and a bit down the throttle cable (well as best as I could in situ)
Got in the...
JMS Induction arrived today! Havent been out and tested it yet, but I didn't have the instructions so I wasnt sure what to do with the mini breather?
I just ending up attaching it to the existing pipe, which unfortunately left it sitting ontop of 90 degree bend, so I'll have to sort that, but...
TBH I did the same when I first started driving, because I could, legally....
I was at uni, so the car was driven by my mum 5 days a week during the days as she was at home, the car was then only ever driven by me some week nights and some weekends.
I modded the living day lights out of the...
I'm buying some of these tonight. lol!
Good til payday, and then ideal for then you wanna go over the park etc and not have all your un-caring asshole mates get in and put their muddy s**t everywhere!
