Right here we go... Now and again in first and second gear when you push the car roughly between 4000-5000 rpm the car will Jerk and not rev any further until I release the throttle and engage it again, the engine managment light and the shift light will come on then go off, it happens every now...
The car needs a good detailing.. I would love to do this myself but other than a basic wash, hand polish and wax thats where my skills stop. I am the type of guy when it comes to things that require time and patience that throws his tools at the nearest wall when the frustration kicks in :) My...
Personally the only thing I think the car would need is a set of Evo MR Recaros' can be bought at £300-480 depending if you want alacantara or half leather alacantara and subframes are £90 each.
I have had bad experiences in two seperate AC dealerships :) Prior to buying my 197cup I was told by one of the dealers 2 months before the general release of the car that the car does not exist, will never exist and that I must be talking about the R27, This was the new car sales manager :)
Yes, I went for Schrick cams in my 172cup and I have a read out of 201bhp (my cup was an acceptionally good one) that was accompanied with a closed induction kit, and a full yozza system with sports cat. The car is far more aggeressive lower down (the schrick's maybe a tad to aggressive for...
cams and a custom map. around £1500 fitted. happy days. you should be knocking between 190-200bhp then.... hopefully

ok short of buying a new set what is my solution, already phoned and pm'd GDI with my problem along with pictures problem, I would have thought my basic solution would be to contact the supplier (HEL)? and get myself a new clip, I am assuming HEL is a German or Dutch company?
I suggested the possibility of using a cable tie to secure it and the MOT inspector said it would not secure it sufficiently. If I was to cable tie them on and take it back to the same inspector, providing they are secure would the inspector have to pass it, despite me using cable ties when he...
The car had it's MOT Wednesday just gone and it failed (didn't really fail he just said bring it back within 10 days with that secured) on the rear braided hoses not being secure enough to the car, due to them floating it is possibly for them to rub against rubber lines and eventually wear them...
The 200 is the car the 197 wanted to be if you ask me :) Loved it from the off.. Small but very effective upgrades, it's the same principal with the transition from the 172/182 small effective upgrades which made it overall the superior car
