Not that I have noticed, I know the one who used to have a phase 1 had a massive exhaust on the back of it but I doubt the old fella is on here, the other I only drove past and got a quick glance, might see if its there again tomorrow if I drive past.
Got some coilovers for my car, quite happy with how it sits now although I think some 100 custom rear springs which will make the back end sit better.
also got my cup spoiler sprayed now, just waiting for a brake light and then I can get that on. The problem I have with these coilovers is...
Alright mate, gunna have a bash tomorrow and see what I can do, if you don't need the column what do the mounts hold together with? And that's good news, thought I had put them on wrong or something, bouncing all over the place haha. I like it at times, it is quite funny after a while, my...
How much wider do you have to drill them do you know? And I got my second aswell, are yours quite bouncy, all my car seems to do is bounce everywhere now....
Not sure then mate. Talking to my mate now who had been in it and that he said it was a solid runner when the other lad had it, not a single problem with at all, the lad who had it kept everything OEM as far as I know, came a long way then if you sold it to someone in Bristol, I'll ask my mate...
When I saw it ages ago it was in really good condition, you sure it is the same car? I now know the guy who owned it and he said it was a good runner, never really had any major problems with it, said it had a steering column problem, a little problem somewhere else but was a solid car.
You spoke to the guy who has the VXR or his cousin do you mean? Lost it a little there, yeah the lad with the glanza had a cup and a 182 rep I see at little car meets and that, not seen a LY 182 around, saw a LY 197 in chorley a couple hours ago with a 172 I think it was,
Depends if I have my car have to do some bodging this week to get my dampers to fit, but I'll keep a look out for that, sounds nice, I'm out with a lad usually who had a 172 on the forum but now has a astra vxr and there's a guy I know who had a 172 cup but had a glanza now, not come across any...
Did you not need to get a new column thing for the two little mounts? And I got a small rubber thing aswell, not sure if that's needed, only received one of them.
Cheers mate, yeah I forgot about it too and went past it on the way to southport one day and the next day I went for a chill, I wasn't too sure on the wheels at first, just wanted some better wheels than the turinis, you from Horwich? I live in westhoughton, not sure I've seen you around?
Alright cheers mate, I have the mounts drilled out, I'm going to go to an industrial parts supplier in the morning and get the bolts I need but cheers for the size and yeah they are the cheap ones ;) classic 1.2 clio option haha. AlexCarter
Hi, I have fitted the front coilovers to my 1.2 pretty good but the back is being a problem as the top bolt that came off the top of the rear damper doesn't fit the coilovers damper, I would have thought that the bolts would have been the same but it seems that they might be different.
Could...
If your interested in lowering it I have some FK 60/40 springs and shocks for sale, will make your car sit lovely ;)
never really too keen on this colour, I like what -Danman- did to his, I'm hoping you can make this a decent car with its colour mate.
