Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread Back wayyyy before every car on here had different color wingmirrors and badges lol.

Im using a 182 sump on my 172 Ph2 bottom end and its been fine

I paid £120 for a 28k bottom end from a member off here, can be got far cheaper!

The OP said without ITBs I know of one that made 190bhp with Schricks/Matched Inlets/Decat/ITG Panel Filter etc Fred got similar with some CatCams a few weeks back AFAIK

2.25" Straight Cut

Unsure on costs, guess it depends how technical either end of the car is. If you wanted stainless they would easily do it in a day TIG it all, rather than most other places that just use MIG...or I think they can do mild steel for cheaper. They quoted me £250 for full system on my old Mk2 in...

Just edited my post, used them both before aye. If you want top top quality that will be perfect go to JP, probably be a bit more money but the quality is far better. TBH though it wasnt all that expensive, Christophers had stuff done there before too

JP Exhausts in Macclesfield, make the Yozzas - http://www.jpexhausts.co.uk/ Pipewerx in Ormskirk, probably cheaper - http://www.pipewerx.com/

Using the SHOOT_4 setup but running it set to 3rd gear? :S

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Decided not to for now, even though it was mentioned that I could probably do it without doing the towing licence as long as I got one huge ass tow car. Thing is, im 21 in february so waiting until then to get a 'proper' decent every day car, as insurance...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Just thought id post this, as its now been decided that this is definitely not a winter car lol! First proper frost last night really, by 8pm the inside and outside of my windscreen were frozen solid, along with the sunroof on the inside. The clocks were...

Should do yeah, its worth a try anyways, wont cost you anything if you know someone who has got one, 2 minutes of a job to plug it in and connect!

Get hold of someone with an RSTuner, plug it into your car and it should show the software version/calibration details. It will also show you the programming/flashing history. You dont need a licence for your car to do this, I used mine for diagnostics on other peoples cars when I had it and...

Crap pic but you can see the bracket/bearing and one part of the two piece shaft there, thats from a 182

nearside front 172 caliper that is* lol

Some 172s and most 182s have it... The driveshaft is two piece....comes off the box to this bearing in a straight line, then off to the hub. Bolts onto the 3 holes on the back of the block, not got a pic to hand unfortunately!

You said its a passenger side caliper? Passenger side is nearside not offside.

Aye the shells already gone....along with most of the parts :(

Id remove them completely too... Do what 'Willy Lover' said, then....undo the hub/shaft bolts on the hubs, 30mm. Then undo the shock bolts and pull the hub towards yourself. You'l be able to get the driveshafts out then. Although, you might have it a bit more complicated than a 172, due to you...

Whats the problem?

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Ah cool. A member of another forum that I'm on has offered to make me up the gussets for the doors/screen/main hoop for a lot less than Custom Cages charge (£25+VAT Per Pair!), so ive been making templates for him today...saves me messing round and having to...

Oh dear oh dear. - Cable ties. - Done. - Drive. ;)

Stop thinking and just buy them!

Schrick can be used on standard managament, yes. I had them in mine. Adamio has too with good results I think. I sold my set to Chris/480bhp. Hes got them up for sale at the moment for cheaper than CatCam/C&B/etc, bargin really.

Upper rad mounts - 10mm cable ties tbh!

Is the wiring done and sorted? From what I heard Fred wont be liking it if its not, lol.

Lol. Cant wait for pics of it happening tbh.

You can get this stuff that comes in liquid form, you paint it on and it turns to like a putty/mask within a few minutes. You can spray the unmasked area then peel the putty/mask off...works perfectly on stuff ive used it for, may do on bullets too

If its the Konigsports you are wanting, someone I know got the price down on these a bit and then free delivery.... http://www.venommotorsport.com/product_details.php?id=9682&manufacturer=FK&category=Suspension If you are wanting Highsports you will easily get them for under £400. Doubt you...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Yeah, will make sure the door bars are last to be welded! Did you make your own gusset plates? Flaring tool to make the holes or something?
