Car looks really good. Rear bumper is begging to have something done to it, especially since you've already done the front!

Great looking pair tbh chaps, I'd have had one in a heartbeat when looking for my ph1, except for the fact my non sport was a similar colour. (cherry red) I prefer the ph2 rear lights. :)

Plastic welded mate. lol!!! (I'm not actually kidding)

Really like that, was considering one of these before I got my 172.

16's ideally, yum! Edit: Although I must admit, I love how the car drives on 15's!

I'll swap, doesnt need much to look like that? ;) And OP, really does look brilliant mate.

Around 200 sheets iirc. :( I can get one second hand that I know is good, so I guess I'll be doing that... :( If it isnt the case DannyR, I'm blaming/invoicing you ;) The only I doubt it just being the throttle body, is that it ONLY does this when the car is warmed up? How do you explain that...

I'd say I'd be up for block booking, but only after I've come along once, providing I'm not too s**t/I actually know who you lot are. Don't wanna put out money if I'm not sure I'd be coming :)

Donuts! SOLD! Be nice to meet some new faces too! I voted for three, ok? :)

LOL, yes this is true, apologies. Meet still on, booya

Tell me about it, the more people with have with problems, the easier it should be to resolve. I'm going to do some more to it tmrw, I'm going to try to check both ends of the throttle cable, although I have no idea how to check the pedal side... lol! I'm also gonna try get me a gasket for...

Didn't notice you'd done a project mate, good progress so far, hopefully we sort the running issues soon enough (f**king french) Like the yellow and silver colour theme, was going to go with that myself, but it seems rude not to go with the green, seeing as the wheels are already done. :) Oh...

Looks great Adam, we defo need that ph1 meet! Despite our cars being the same colour, they look nothing alike!

This should be easy to do, I'll try it when I get home tmrw after work as when I pull up it should do it. Cheers :)

Didn't know there was an idle gromit, cheers. Ok cheers mate, I'll give as much as possible a good checking this w.e I have no idea how to do this, but I guess I'd better learn quick, lol!!! Thanks for the advise, update in here to let us know how the new cable does you. Hmmmm, well the...

Any idea on price?

I NEED your spoiler in my life!!! Love the car, but do agree the ph2 rear bumper would suit the spoiler better :)

Nice pair, love the black ph1, IMO if the lettering on the bullets were black, they'd be nicer :)

Cracking looking car, but low RPM? Seriously? I thought the fun would be in the revs! Even if not going fast, just keeping it responsive!

After disconnecting the cable on mine though, it moves sweet as a nut, very smooth etc, no rubbing sounds, and this wouldnt explain the fact it only happens when its warm?? I honestly now think its the butterfly expanding in size slightly with the heat and catching in the TB, which would...

Hmmm, well if you solve it, let me know, and I'll do the same, adam172 also has the same issue, so someones gotta crack it.

By Mk1 do you mean ph1 too? Or are they different? Mine is EXACTLY the same Jord, I can tap the pedal and it drops, but when testing the TB in my hand, the spring returns back fully, FAST! (although I'm thinking this could change when hot) Is it possible that the butterfly metal is expanding...

I like the way you think. (and look ;)) I'm game for Hastings.

Does this mean its not on? I was actually gonna come to this one... :(

1.2 Boy? Are you referring to my loyal old motor? I'll have you know that was the finest 60bhp 8v car going! And yes, you're throttle works, you win. b*****d. Yeah I have, thats why I mean by it has a nice action, when i took it off, I gave it a good clean with a tooth brush and white spirit...

But what could it be in the TB Jord? There's not much to it really is there? How hard is fitting a new throttle cable dude? Any idea if the pedal mech in the car could be sticking? Got a spare ICV you fancy posting me? I'll post it back if it makes no difference. ;)

Yeah ph1, as I said above, the cable has a nice action, we disconnected it from the TB and it moves fine tbh, I'll try giving it a bit of wd40 love a bit later.... And Aluco, the only thing letting down the rear of my car is that your bonnet dented rust bucket seems to be sporting the spoiler...

Same problem here too, I want to take it off and have a look when i get a chance.

Right.... Tried a lot of things to resolve the high idle problem with my ph1 and this I think is now my last resort. Can I take the throttle pedal off easy enough? Is there anything that could be sticking? Bit of a background... (sorry for the long read) The car was idling high, (only after...

Driving along yesterday, car nice and clean, all of a sudden I notice a weird mark on the side of the windscreen, the start of a crack, its now 6 inches long, phoned insurance, glass men are so busy because of the cold weather they cant make it until next tuesday :( Also, throttle body cleaning...
