think he means what drivesft.
one of the roller bearings came off my shaft when i was driving and all the pins went into the gearbox.
cost me...
new gearbox
new driveshaft
new gearbox mount
new cat/downpipe
download Prime95 and run a Stress test overnight for atleast 12 hours to make sure it doesnt fail (ie. somethings causing it to be unstable, such as faulty ram, faulty psu or overclocking issues, but as you say it does it even at stock speeds so likely not that)
you can download it HERE
Re: first glimps
needs ph2 172 wheels to finish it off, along with a cup splitter, cup spoiler, sideskirts, front window sticker removed, fogs off, bump strips and door handles colourcoded, xenon front lights, then suspension lowered to 172 level or lower
then it will be mint!
i ran the 172 mount with standard bushes for a while and it was much better than the fucked mount but still moved a bit
if your willing to put up with the extra vibration then its deffo worth it for the bushes
yeah im on about the dogbone mount, sorry dont know about the others never done them, same goes for this 4th mount the 172s have? never even seen one of them lol
to check the dogbone mount open the bonnet and hold the engine and try and rock it back and forward, it should have a little bit of movement but it should feel pretty solid, mine used to swing back and forward quite the thing when my gearbox mount was gone.
also you can stick a jack under the...
probably the lower gearbox mount, their crap.
i replaced mine with a 172 twisted style mount with uprated Powerflex polly bushes from K-Tec, its one of the best mods ive ever done, the gearstick doesnt jump about anymore when you come on and off the accelerator, infact its solid. moving slowly...
lol reanult wanted to cut my mates grill and someone even said a hole in the bonnet!
10 minz with a screwdriver and i had it open with no damage done, £30 for a new release cable and it was sorted
my new cable had they weights too and my old one didn, they just have changed it, maby thats why mine is so light now.
i drove gibson172's the other day and it was pretty light, mk2 172 on 30k
Ive got Eagle F1s on my Dynamique 195/50 and they are mental, especially in the wet. my mums got 4 budget cheapos on her dynamique and i nearly lost it on the stirling services roundabout at 35mph, mine does it at 60mph, get to 65mph and it starts to slide slightly
car looks awesome.
lol at the black one, looks like as alex said it could be exhaust trims as it looks like its too close to the towing hook on teh right hand side
65 dosnt have an intercooler, 80 and 100 do.
100 has a different turbo, think the 65 and 80 have the same turbo.
think you need bigger injectors to go past 120bhp i heard?
doesnt the 100 have the 6 speed megane box or am i talking pish?
make sure the tyres are the same condition on opposite sides, front and back.
get the tracking checked
check dampers & bushes
check tyre pressures
and as john said, remember the roads are terrible at this time of year
