Currently at the Midlands breakfast club car meeting at the British Ironwork centre near Oswestry.
Good weather has brought some lovely cars out. I've even dusted off the rally car...
will add some more later.
Another cup and a trophy also here
As title really, what are the differences between the ph1 172 inlets compared to the ph2 172 inlets
I know the throttle bodies are different ie one is cable, the other fbw, but are the hole pitches for the TB the same?
Is the only other difference the holes for the idle control valve the only...
I may as well try and start a bit of a build thread for my Clio stage rally car.
A few of you know that I was competing in Sprints and hillclimbs in my original cup car and had some pretty good results in 2014. I had a lot of fun with quite a few class wins, 1 track record (Wigan), 2nd overall...
As im building another rally car, I am looking at using the Goodridge hardline fuel pipe in the car from the tank to the front bulkhead, then use braided fuel hose in the engine bay. Has anyone else done similar.
Went to look at it today, just after some extra info if possible as it's got a cs tax disc holder.Is the former keeper still on here, apparently came from swindon 12+ months ago.
Hopefully someone knows it.
I am going to use a clio 172 shell to build my next car. Basically I want to put the engine and running gear etc from my Cup into this shell, the question is, is there a big difference in the wiring looms or does the normal 172 just have the extra bits in it for the aircon, abs etc or do I just...
Has anyone used Pro-cut brake skimming to sort their warped discs out?
just chucked some 2nd hand 300mm rotors with alloy bells on the clio and it's now got brake judder warped discs. Yes I could take them off and get them skimmed but it would be good to get them true'd on the car and then it...
Anybody got the length of the front flexy hoses, and also what fitting do I need from the flexy to the metal pipe?
Need to get some made up tomorrow to suit AP calipers.
cheers

I have been offered the use of some lovely big AP 4 pot brakes with alloy bells and big discs which if I can make them fit under a 15" wheel I will make some brackets to for them.
Question is - what master cylinder do people use with 4 pots or can I just use the cup one?
With my 205's I...
Howdo, I have got an 03 172 Cup.
I am wanting to freshen up the front end of my car so looking at replacing the complete bottom arms (inc balljoints), track rod ends and rack ends/arms.
Any CS traders able to do me a good price for them all.
Cheers
Paul
As another bit of fun and another box to tick I fancy using the Cup on some sprints and hillclimbs next year.
Who out there has/is using a 172 Cup and what stuff have you done to it, which tyres did/do you use (im using 16") what can you get away with etc to within the rules.
Im guessing in...
Howdo!!
My mate picked up this bargain car at the end of last year and we chucked a few bits and pieces into it for us to use on road rallies.
We did a couple of rallies in it with him driving and me on the maps but hes got too much work on at the moment so hes now sold the car to me (with the...
