    Brigsy's other cars - formerly kangoo 172 cup

    This was my setup, memory was a bit hazy with it being 10 yrs ago, I remember making that nozzle holder now, before I had the ally one water jetted. Looking back at an old build thread it was an AEM kit with 180cc nozzle pre compressor and a 760cc nozzle pre throttle body. TBH if I did it...

    My rusty Williams, where to start?

    if it was a Williams 1 I'd say it was probably still worth saving for a skilled DIYer, as it's a 2 probably not.

    Some expert thoughts - 182

    OEM cat is worth £400 scrap at the moment (that's what i got for my 172 cat a few weeks back) , so I'd want at least that reflected in the asking price, as you're going to have to get one for the MOT, or spend £250 on a good (i.e not KTEC) sports cat and have it welded in.

    My rusty Williams, where to start?

    Yeah that's pretty rotten.. realistically not financially viable for someone who can't do all of the work themselves. I don't think moving it on is a bad idea tbh

    RB 182 Cup - keeping this one

    J&R shafts do get mixed reviews. You can get CV's for the original shafts to get them rebuilt, but they're pattern parts too so no different to aftermarket shafts. The guy that advertises shaft refurbs on FB/Instagram wants £300 for a pair and you can get two sets of pattern shafts for that. I...

    Brigsy's other cars - formerly kangoo 172 cup

    I ran pre-compressor water meth on my MR2 turbo and it made a big difference, especially as they're limited for options for decent intercooling without hacking out the boot floor. Had a nozzle holder water jetted out of ally to sit inside the silicone hose on the compressor housing with the...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    I listen to the tdc podcast to kill time in the car, but their content is mind numbing, unsurprising really as they're part of the auto Alex circle. I've been binge watching this guy's E30 restoration over the last few days https://youtube.com/@backgardengarage?si=2s3cC75st0f5cD8-

    Mondial 172 Cup OEM+ / Rolling Resto

    Had the car over to my friendly fabricator this week to get the extra exhaust hanger for the BTB exhaust made, dropped it off on Monday at 4pm and collected it last night, really happy with the results.

    Mondial 172 Cup OEM+ / Rolling Resto

    250 miles done now, worked from home this morning so got the oil changed after lunch It could have waited a few more miles, but I'm confident the rings have had time to bed in and I'm moving house in a couple of weeks and would rather any oil drips went on this drive rather than the new one...

    172 cup, what I wanted to do 20 years ago

    I had a bimarco futura in my MR2 years ago, was a pretty roomy seat, ideal for bigger guys. I think the cobra 3 is the current version

    Disturb crank seal?

    Clio maxi build manual specifies DowSil 732 which is what I used, Loctite 5980 is fine too

    CSF26 🚨CSF26 Save the date! Now with location details ❤️ 🚨

    I'm in two minds whether to camp solo or get a hotel/lodge for a few nights.. I kind of like the idea of getting the Mrs and kid to follow me down in her car with extra spares/tools etc rather than the chance of having a mechanical issue and being left stranded.

    Help! Advice on engine mount bolt needed!

    You did snap the tang off the end of the coil once it was inserted didn't you?

    Disturb crank seal?

    I would change it, pull the cap, re seal it and a fresh seal, just make sure the crank is clean where the seal sits and use a proper seal driver to make sure it goes in square.

    Mondial 172 Cup OEM+ / Rolling Resto

    First 50 miles done today without any snags, taking it easy just varying revs/load and engine braking. Feels good to be out in it again. Remember how horrible the seating position is though, I'll have to do something about that this summer Looked good from the window of the gym this morning

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Standard head, cams, pistons and rods? Maybe £1k for the long block if it's cosmetically nice too, £800 for the turbo kit and £600 for the ECU

    My cheap(ish) 172 Cup

    They took the bumper off to paint it, but I did leave the car with them. They did the bumper, side strips, and door bullets. I dropped it off on Sunday evening before I went back to work and he had it done by Wednesday

    My cheap(ish) 172 Cup

    I think I'd rather have a freshly painted bumper thats not a 100% match than one that's peppered with chips and scratches. I had my back bumper painted, edge to edge with the tailgate and rear quarters you'd never know, the match is perfect, they charged me £280 all in.

    Stick some UV dye in the header tank and find the leak with a blacklight. I used the Ring kit to find this tiny leak on my Ducati

    172 cup, what I wanted to do 20 years ago

    I don't off the top of my head, I've got a box of assorted dowtys in the garage, worth having one for things like this

    172 cup, what I wanted to do 20 years ago

    I had the same thing, nipped it up and it stopped but I think it's still weeping a tiny bit. I'm going to remove the fitting again and replace the supplied copper crush washer with a dowty washer

    Mondial 172 Cup OEM+ / Rolling Resto
