    Car ramps - how high?

    I remember seeing some with a bottle jack under the flat section so you could really increase your chances of injury.

    Car ramps - how high?

    I'm reading that link as £28 each, is that right?

    Jim's Black Ph2 172 (Just like everyone else's!)

    Power steering pump is definitely too noisy to risk a trackday with, so I've ordered another. It's my own fault really, the course of events was: Overheated the pump and boiled the fluid, running the reservoir dry and shagging the pump. Had the pump replaced, fresh fluid, and presumed I'd be...

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Ordered that pump. Will report back. To keep this as a useful comment, here's the link to my build thread post where I fitted the cooler: Clicky Link

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Yes mate, well, technically no. Where the low pressure line changes to a hard pipe for about 12” behind the rad I basically binned off the hard pipe and put my cooler lines in there. I think I’m going to go for that pump you shared. It’s got the same chance did being shite as the others but...

    I have. But I killed the second pump before fitting it.

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Thanks for the headsup on that one. Don't worry I won't be pointing fingers if something goes amiss.

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Is there any foolproof way other than sourcing a NOS pump at the cost of about £300?

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Ah b*ll*cks. Trying to get it sorted this week. So is eBay recon better? My head is spinning with options. This is the kind of stuff that's starting to get on my t*ts with the Clio.

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    Thread bump as I think this is a pretty damn useful thread, and want to keep the info in one place... Right then, this time last year when I looked there were next to no Nissan pumps out there, however now there are! A lot of them already have a single piece pulley pressed on, as opposed to a...

    Exhaust Options

    Defo think its a 2 box Piper when I change. I've just got to fix the perpetually broken power steering pump again.

    Solid top mounts daily?

    You've bought them now, but the only thing I noticed when fitting mine was the handling felt better. I don't remember any downside.

    Exhaust Options

    Ah that's good to know. I had a Subaru that used to set off car alarms so I'm a bit paranoid.

    Exhaust Options

    Do you get away with the noise limits? Or do you have to take it easy past the meters? I'm leaning towards the Piper one to be honest.

    Exhaust Options

    Been listening to these in the car and they all sound great, especially the first one! But I think that may be the loudest?

    Exhaust Options

    Ah yep that makes sense then. I was confused and not paying attention whilst pretending to be working.

    Exhaust Options

    Great info thanks! I might end up running a decat at some point but just want to get the stupid exhaust sorted for now. I spotted this but didn't want to say :ROFLMAO: The car is stripped and caged and mainly a track car, but I really don't want to fail noise testing on track so happy to go...

    Exhaust Options

    Ey up. Just wondering what options there are for a Ph2 172 catback exhaust that's available new, rather than having to scour the classifieds. Needs to be trackday quiet and preferably stealth type. I don't think the PMS mates up to the standard cat so gets quite dear when you add the sports cat...

    Flat Performance After Service

    Took the car out last night and its driving much better, Thanks for the pointers guys. I still think the exhaust may be restrictive but its knocking it's c**k off so will be getting replaced. Well that's and exaggeration - you can tell its touching under the car somewhere as there's harsh...

    Flat Performance After Service

    Replaced this weekend, The old seal was a bugger to get out but it looked like it had been leaking. Plenty of oily gunge around the solenoid. And the car wasn't much better either :LOL:
