Hello people. So I bought a rolling shell track car earlier this year. I’ve just got around to stripping it and preparing for the new engine etc. It’s got a dci epas column on it. All wired up etc. but the rack was literally just the rack no arms no pipes etc. Does anyone know what rack I am...

Sorry probably in the wrong thread but I’ve not used this for a long time so can’t seem to find anything 🤣

Just had a reply from the seller asking do I have 72 or 75mm abs ring? Not even sure what he is on about? Any help with this please guys as car is miles away in a lock up? I don't even use abs as it's a track car. If that makes a difference. Thanks again

Thank you very much. I only asked as it said these don't fit your car but then said the same on every single brake kit I found so gathered they must be wrong as ordered brembo last time and they was fine. Thanks again

I'm not actually at my car but does anybody know what make the standard calipers are on a 2003 Clio sport 172? Just ordering some disks and pads off eBay and it says for girling caliper? Thanks John

ive just taken that off to check the plugs I don't think so and tbh it was revving a lot less after I gave them a good clean. something to do with this buzzing im thinking.

the throttle body itself is buzzing like mad when I take the induction pipe off its like its trying to open and close itself and you cant open the valve until you disconnect it? is it a new tb time ? cheers

ive just replaced my engine on 172, all back together now and I go to start it and it just revs really high but like someone was pumping the accelerator, so I turned it off checked for loose pipes etc everything seems to be fine? so i cleaned the throttle body with carb cleaner go back to try it...
