Aye it's fucked. Gave up at a roundabout oil everywhere

Also it's juddering in first now as well. The noise is getting louder.

Over the last month the gearbox has had a whine on overrun. It's gotten more noticeable over the last week and sounds like a turbo spoiling up (or down on overrun) any ideas what it could be? The gearbox mounts ate basically non existent. As it's knocked itself out of gear on a couple of...

I don't think it had been low enough for the oil pressure to be dangerously low. Took a couple of minutes once the car was switched off for it to be drained. Light wasn't on before I switched it off either.

So I'm currently stranded waiting on the rac as there was two or three medium sized rocks on the road. I'm on a country road which is very windy and elevated so it's hard to see what's around every corner and so didn't have time to avoid them or slow down much at all. I went over the middle of...

It was new vmaxx coilovers fitted less than 2 months ago. I'll have a look. But I've took corners at those speeds before and been fine.

On three different roundabouts though? Unless it's on my tyres. Quite scary though. The front end holds no bother but the rear just goes.

Okay so I've got two brand new rainsport 3's on the front and Yokohama 's drives on the rear with decent tread. It's quite rainy and on three roundabouts doing average speed my cup has spun out and I'm facing oncoming traffic. Cars lowered on coilovers. Any idea on why this is? Because I'm...

Vmaxx and jacked up with the wheels off. Kind of sorted it now, looks level ish.

Right ive installed coilovers on the front and theyre both set level, however the drivers side constantly sits lower than the passenger. Ive tried hightening it numerous times and seems to just sit way lower. Am i doing something wrong or what?

Good stuff. Cheers. Does it matter how low it is? Can that affect the driveshafts

was fitting coilovers today when I managed to pull the front drivers side driveshaft out by accident. I popped it back in and have went on a drive and seems fine (apart from the tracking being ridiculous and the scrubbing). Will the driveshaft be ok? I didn't hear a click or anything when I put...

Connor 172 Cup Dundee

Night and day imo. The Accord is a big heavy car, handles well but nowhere near as good as the Clio. It only started moving once you got into vtec. The Clio is quicker right the way through. I prefer smaller cars so I'm probably a bit biased. Main reason I changed was because parts are very rare...

These things are far quicker than I expected. Holy f**k

Sorry I'm talking b****cks as it does have two silencers. Talking of which, will coilovers for a standard 172 fit a cup?

hi all, been on this forum for a good while but never posted, always wanted a clio 172/182, but the right one never came up. Was on the brink of buying one early this year until a Honda Accord Type-R came up, and went for that instead. Swapped someone today with a 172 cup. Lowered on springs...
