Is it useable, Or do the f**k ups from beanie sport need sorting first?

I thought this too

HANS devices are definitely worth it, I’ve been using one since 2013 and I don’t get in a car on track without one. Slightly annoying to begin with but really not that bad.

I had one in about 2011/2012 KW03LGG believe it’s been written off now

Seen better cars in a scrap yard.

I personally haven’t, but I’ve had the same symptoms on one of the many I’ve owned and a pedal fixed it. But I’ve seen plenty where the connector is a bit corroded and causes that issue too. French electrics 😂

I would start with cleaning the white plug in the engine bay fuse box, if that doesn’t help I would going down the route of a pedal or throttle body

Finally MOT’d! Just need to tax and insure then I can start using it. Also bought some pro race 3s (I think may be 1.3?) as they were cheap and I like them.

Bought this 172 sight unseen off eBay for £500, was told it ran so I picked it up from some dodgy part of London on my trailer. Lo and behold it didn’t run. Turns out the radiator had popped driven with no coolant and semi seized the battery engine. Put another engine in it and sold it for...

With my experience of Porsche owners they won’t have even noticed.

I’ll be there in my rusty MX5, wanted to take the 182 but haven’t been able to get an MOT on it in time 😢

I’ve got this fuel pump in mine https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325707625613?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=edAOMautQpW&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=OL8M4kwdRPS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Fixed it 🤦‍♂️ I serviced it the other week took the wheels off etc and the offside front bolt holes look like and felt like they’d been in the sea. When I’ve rushed to put the wheel on (it startec pissing with rain) the torque wrench has clicked with the resistance of the corrosion and not when...

Hi, needing some advise/help. The other half has got a Megane 265 and for a while it’s had a weird rotational noise, long story short got it on a ramp and found the bearing support clamp bolt for the offside driveshaft had come loose. Did that up, noise had gone happy days. But now a couple...

Check the levels and send it to be fair lol and EFI over in Runcorn for sure.

I don’t even think it was that to be honest, just lots of running over kerbs 😏

Yeah it was just coming out the top of the pump in the tank but not obviously being delivered to the rail. Anyway sorted now 😃

I should add it’s got a kemso fuel pump in it that @GrahamS fitted when he had the car so I guess years of abuse and vibration just got too much!

They come with those heated solder joints from Renault. But for those interested the crank sensor was not the problem. Fitted the new updated one last night and no change at all. Now all along this process I’ve heard the fuel pump priming so I wrongfully assumed that was all good. Took the...

I hope so 🤞🏻 I wouldn’t mind so much but I’m meant to be racing it in 2 weeks so I’m on a bit of time crunch to get it sorted lol

Did some more searching tonight, on my data logger at rest it’s showing 184rpm, when cranked this went up to 200rpm. Checked the compression 180psi across all cylinders. Plugs look good Fuel pump primes Immobiliser light goes out as it should Got a new style sensor coming tomorrow to try and...

Fingers crossed it’ll be that easy 😅

On my very ropey data logger thing I have when cranked no RPM speed is shown

Hi everyone, Did a track day in my 172 yesterday, was all going well until the second session when the car just electrically shut off and wouldn’t restart. Plugged in the RSTuner and the only code I had stored was an engine speed sensor code (presume this is crank sensor) has anybody had such...

Freshly mapped today at phoenix automotive technologies, this turbo setup is finally nice and useable using parameters within the Gen90 ecu that Ktec didn’t use when they fitted/mapped it. Made 247bhp at 0.5 bar and 233lbft torque.

What’s a set of scabby 4x100 15 inch pro race 1.2’s worth?

My AST’s are at 3 degrees neg camber just with the slots.

I love 2118’s, I have a white set on my RB but they have been done to death. Gold or silver X3MA would look great imo
