can anyone link me to a review of these cars pitted against each other? i saw a chart on here once of loads of different cars timed around a track iirc thanks its just my mate reckons the new 197's are a world away from the 172's in performance and i said no way

unlucky aran mate it was a lovely motor as well at least your ok and your insurance will sort it all

tuning these cars is expensive for little gain and a really good driver might waste you anyway down a b road (not that you arnt a good driver, but you might be shyte ;) ) id get some eibach sportlines and koni adjustables then some decent disks and pads like those carbon jobbies from ebc a...

open bonnet find the engine mount on the left as you look under the bonnet slacken the four 16mm headed bolts (2 full turns) that secure this mount to the body bar the engine forward and keep the presure on whilst you tighten bolts voila knocking goes away if this dont fix it then maybee...

probably dont want to here this but you shouldnt have started it from when it first was making a noise could be garages fault if youve just had a cam belt done sounds like somethings come loose like crank bolt or cambelt tensioner, was the garage a specialist or dealer or was it some mickey...

this man knows what hes on about ;) you need to port forward vour router and set the port for your d/l client up in your router settings page can i recommend using bit lord and going on their forum and using the guide to setup port forwarding for bit lord

ive thought long and hard about this and imo its not worth it its a pain in the arse to swap over at mot time on a ph2, all this for a small gain

cams and bodies :cool: will spit flames but omex to get best out of it no damage what so ever as it only spits on overrun this is due to valve overlap iirc

ive got a tent on :eek:

feck me i bet thats not shy :eek: gotta be around 180-200 bhp at that boost :approve:

no way!!! this will be an awsome weapon totaly inspiring thread

no chance mate, just too low, imo only need anywhere near that on 15 inch wheels

im a stone lad meself mate :cool: but i bought a house in stafford u coming to starcity this afternoon ?

70mm ? i was thinking of just venting crancase to air with a breather filter instead of back in the inlet

yeh mate i think sticking to 70 mm makes for less hassle and i will cut 90 bends if i have to because i dont want it to far towards the wing

as for length of inlet, iirc a longer inlet path makes for improved torque so i might gain some torque maybe

its 70-80mm as the flange on the filter is 80mm where as the rest of it is 70mm dont spose it matters really just get a 70mm flanged filter and do away with the reducer eh ? also what size crancase breather do i need to fit on pipe from crankcase ?

both mate, induction noise is very sexy yes....... :cool:

kinda like this methinks im not sure wether the big foam filter will fit in that space so i might have to go for a smaller cone shaped one like this : http://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/ITG-AIR-FILTERS-ITG-MAXOGEN/c432_435/p182/ITG-TURBO-FILTER-70MM-CONICAL/product_info.html

its no biggie mate as long as you dont over react. ie slightly steer into it whilst releasing the brake slightly and reapplying without trying to sound like a big headed t**t, i just do these things naturaly now after 10 years of owning fast cars fwd, rwd and 9 years in the motor trade. i...
