Hi guys,
Could anyone tell me the size of this o ring please, its from where the drivers side drive shaft meets the output shaft of the gearbox
Many Thanks
Hi guys,
Occasionally recently, when I am driving fast into a corner, I lift off, brake and turn in, and get a problem.
The car is self accelerating, but it' is as if someone is stamping on and off the throttle it only does 2-3 blips but enough to scare the living .... out of me.
I let my...
Hi guys, thought it would be good to share the power figures I got and what modifications I had done as I couldn't seem to find dyno print outs for an f4r with only head work and basic breathing mods. To see more about the car check out my progress thread...
Hi guys, looking for some reassurance. I've just done my timing belt and it seems that to two points it says to aline get close to each other, then it runs out of travel on the cam and returns back to loose again. The pin is definitely in the slot on the back of it. I've got the two points as...
Does anyone know the torque figures for the following studs in the F4R cylinder head :
Exhaust manifold studs
Timing belt pulley studs
Should I torque them up to slightly more than the nuts going onto them or the same?
Thanks
After owning my 172 for several months now I may as well start a build thread.
Bought the car from Trev at DTM cars mid last year. Soon as the car came up I thought great, a trust worth garage, its in my budget, reasonable mileage and once I took it out for a test drive, I HAD to have it. Felt...
Hi guys.
As some of you may know my engine let go a couple of weeks ago. I already had a spare engine I was building to go in if mine let go. I didn't expect it to go so soon though. I'm building my spare engine at the minute with almost everything being replaced on it. I've got for supertech...
Does anyone know the best place to order sinus or supertech valves from that isn't Ktec's prices. Preferably with a short delivery time.
I would rather like to put some in my engine before it goes back together but not at the cost of £400!
Thanks
James
Spotted a red 197 on the back of a recovery truck coming in billingham
and I was behind a Matt red 200 2012 plate I did get a picture whilst in traffic, Matt red looks so good!
I was in a silver 172
Recently purchased this from a member I know of on here who had bought it from another member on here. Took the head off today to find this...
I bought it due to my own engine seems to be using oil from somewhere, so I decided to buy this one to have ago at building myself. Working on a...
Hey guys,
I've got what I believe to be a ph1 head, with a 182 rocker cover. I'd like to fit this to my ph2 172 block with standard 172 inlets.
I've seen that the breather plates are different between 172 and 182, and they are NOT interchangeable. I've also heard that you cant just swap...
Need some experienced people in here! The head to manifold gasket I bought from the local factors seems to match up the bolts fine, however the port sizes do not.
The manifold measures 53mm across, but the gasket is 43mm, same issue with the height.
Is this because the ports on the 172 head...
looks to be a nice car, wish i could afford it right now!

Hi, I'm trying to plan an engine conversion from 1.4 16v to 1*2 engine. Trying to figure out how i'm going to insure it. Does the conversion class as a standard replacement because technically it is a standard replacement cause it came from a clio and is going into a clio, it's not like I'm...
Hiya, got my little 1.4 16v dyno'd at fast show my dynotech by dyno dynamics. To be honest I wasn't that impressed as they couldn't even get my name (James) spelt correctly they wrote Jason instead. Anyway the car before me had been previously dyno'd a week before by another place and it came...
I've got a 1.4 16v mk2 ph3, and the engine mount looks like this
However eurocarparts sent me this
Will it just bolt onto where the old one was or do i need to get it changed to the old type?
OR
Have i gone totally stupid and mixed up two similar looking parts...

Hi, I'm after some cam advice for my K4J engine. I'm looking for some aftermarket cams and catcams do some for the K4M. A couple of people on here said they will fit. I'm hoping they know what they are talking about cause the K4M has a different stroke to the K4J.
Anyway I've tried reading on...
I'm after a bit of advice on servicing my clio. She's got 84k on the clock now and I think she needs a freshen up! So far on my to do it:
Change the oil (what is a good oil to use?)
Flush out the coolant system and put some new coolant in there
Change the plugs
Clean out the throttle body...
Hey, seen as though I've been on here just over a year and my member ship has just ran out (must renew.) I thought i'd start a project thread because the car has come quite far. Okay so I bought a 2004 1.4 16v mk2 ph3, 78,000 miles on the clock in Jan 2011. It had a Rip(s**t)speed dvd player...
