saw your message when i woke up this morning, laptop still on......i must have fallen asleep, lol

its just a crankcase breather/vaccum mate, usually would go to the back of the airbox

yeah, i think they most definatley are....its the same on valver/williams valver rack isnt really wide enough to take the williams widetrack, but saying that 90% of people just wind the track rod ends out until its long enough....hardly any thread remains holding it in though, not ideal...

wishbones are bigger im sure....hubs may be 'deeper' size wise too

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project ;) sorry about the lack of decent updates, been busy trying to get loads done! Wiring is there now, everything working, all tidy inside, can only see two runs of conduit (clocks and stalks)....OBD port is located above the pedals, too... Finished a few...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project il get in touch with Kam racing and see how far they have got, im guessing no further, but il let you know :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project ive not pulled out, yet....and I cant be arsed emailing powerstation, if Kam are having problems getting hold of powerstation themselves, im not going to be any better. Its just been one big joke from the start with it really, dont know how long its been...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project drove it up and down the road earlier a few times, and yeah, its kinda nippy, lol Still no air filter or anything on it, steering column not attached properly, wires everywhere, but it drives :) Still waiting on braided lines, AST top mounts (maybe next...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project not much of an update....but here goes... Throttle cable mount finished, after making the extension (read back) to make the throttle cable nice and tight, instead of slack, the bonnet would not close. The bolt was too long....time for some thinking. First...

Nice work once again... I had a NIGHTMARE getting those ABS sensors out too, but I ended up milling them out as they were off the car at the time

172 ph1 with cable throttle in my mk1, idle control valve on the back of the inlet. The pipe that comes off it, usually goes to the elbow the airbox attaches to, correct? Im not running this, air filter is in scuttle panel, with a 90* bend, no attachment for this pipe... Its 'sucking' on idle...

acrylic clearcoat that ive used before was satin finish

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project fucked off waiting for those now, will probably arrive in a few months at this rate. Fitted the standard top mounts back on, but I cant be arsed getting the tracking setup with those on, as itl all move when I put the solid top mounts on....so im stuck...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project course it does lol just about finished the wiring (well to make it roadworthy, lights etc) all im waiting on is farking brake lines, so I can bleed the system and drive it properly!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project ive got every receipt for everything, in a box.....im not going to count it though, not for a while anyway...lol I dont want to know really, only live once eh ;)

im ready to send it once payment info is posted, cheers :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project erm, just get some chock blocks, be reet!

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project yeah, its turned into a custom loom lol amount of things removed and things to re-join i started another from scratch....been worth it though, should be nice and tidy :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project another 6 hours on the wiring today....slowly getting there, all the front lights now working... Inside a bit tidier too...

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project yeah, position 2, and 'start' position are now redundant... basically, key in, position 1, press the button... had to move the wires round on the key barrel, but basically position 2 is now position 1 :)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Thanks for the comments everyone. I now only have one switch inside, hazards. Rear fogs are turned on in via the rear wiper position on the stalk, as i no longer have a rear wiper. Rear wiper on = means rear fogs are on, rear wiper off...fogs off :) Few...

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project bit of win, rev counter now works perfect... new alternator also fitted, runs nice.
