This was only for a short period though as, now with everything in and working it was time to strip it and tidy up and smooth everything to make the car aproper show stopper Whilst we were doing this I also set about making my wheels better, I had a slight moment with a kurb and a front wheel...

This may be a huge post so I'll apologize in advance, I'll try to be breif with some of this, most of it was a huge amount of very difficult work, but the way its written may make it look quick and easy but trust us lol... Since the last update we have been very busy, and I was hoping to keep...

WE'RE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This thread took some finding again, way back in the dusty archives of ClioSport! We've been holding off updating this thread till we had some major progress to put on it, and finally today we have! I'll try to keep this as short as I can, but this is a huge...

Bump

Thankyou fella it would be a great help

Hi there need a bit of help from someone who's got samco coolant hoses fitted to they're 1*2. I need to order a top hose (radiator to thermostat housing) but need the number off the side of the hose if someone could help please. Cheers. Chris

I work for vauxhall and we run Agila's as courtesy cars (the new ones) which are actually a really good little car. also from an oldies point of veiw they're easy to get in and out of with good visability. I'd actually say they were a better car for the job than the Corsa

I dunno, We finally got round to whipping the diff out of the 172 cup box this morning and it only took around 40mins and most of that was trying to find someone with the monster socket needed to release the diff. Not sure about getting the box out if a 1*2 though as ours was on a bench not in...

"Who said I couldn't plow a feild with my willy!!"

Does anyone know of any insurance companies that don't charge an admin fee for changing the car on the policy? I've had an insurance policy running for a little while now to cover whatever runabout i'm in at the time but in that period i've had 5 different cars covered on it and each time it's...

Cheers matey, super quick reply.

Does anyone know if the final drive ratio of a phase 1 172 and a phase 2 cup are the same, i need to know if the diffs are interchangable or are the amount of teeth on the crownwheel and pinion different between the 2 boxes? Cheers. Chris

Tiny update but it keeps me off page 3 lol. Given the rack a bit of a makover Might not look wildly different but now has some new bits like williams widetrack, track rod ends, and a nice coat of paint and now looks like new.

This thread is just awesome i'd have loved to have known where my project was going at an early enough point to have realised how much acid dipping would've helped. Theres something so very exciting about seeing a project like this coming together so please keep the updates coming in as much...

Love all this stuff! Saw the MK3 golf at edition and once we'd got over the initial shock, I was absolutely blown away! I don't know why it even exists but I love the fact that it does! My boss at work is always trying to get me going aircooled... hmm...

Just got forza, haven't played online yet, Mine is: moo0484

Very well spotted that man!!! While I was cooking my dinner one night I got a call from Andy saying that he wanted to build it with vtec as the car is technically a road car and the engine will be far better with cam control and only minimal compromise. I trusted him to make the right choice as...

Once you pull back the rack gaiter you'll be presented with the Inner balljoints in they're sockets. If you get a large set of grips or an adjustable spanner if there's flat points on them (can't remember off the top of my head) around the outside of these sockets they will unscrew out of the...

Oi i feel like Dolly Parton here, you boys are only interested in my rack!!! Lol The rack is a 1 off made by a now closed down company so there aren't anymore and nor is there any useful info I can really give you. Sorry :o

Right, it's about time to show what a run away militery budget can do! LOL We've not posted on this for a very long time now, owing to begging, borrowing, stealing and even working for every penny we can to actually afford our latest purchases!!!! This morning the time had finally come to go...

Matteh just informed me his std valver ran 16.1

Little Satin black VTS ran 15.7 which is respectable. It's std as far as we know

:evil:

As foxy says mine weighed in pretty light at 794kg's with full cage, seat bars in the floor, heater and a propper petrol tank. I now have plans to drop the weight a little more but I don't plan to loose sight of the fact the car is a road car and so needs to be usable (fuel tank range and heater...

No

:o Wow cheers matey, I thought everyone had forgotten about my car it's been so long since I've had anything to report. Hey even i forget it exists at times.

Controversial I know but why after all that engineering (to which I take my hat off) did they choose to use a 2valves per cylinder single cam rover V8? there are so many lighter, better ways to get 200bhp in the back of your twingo. None the less I respect the work thats gone into this and...

Hi there fella's sorry for the lack of posts lately but nothing is really happening at the moment lol. The engine has cost me over 5 grand which, due to my questionable credit history, I can't get a loan for so i've needed to save up in cash which has been very hard work but i think i've pretty...

The car has been professionally repainted in 2k solid paint and all the prep was done to a very high standard so the paints on there and it won't be falling off lol My concerns don't lie with damaging the paint as it's the same finish of paint as any solid colour manufacturer painted car on the...

Trouble is the car is obviously already painted so beyond having laquer put on it. Was just hoping someone would know of a product as I don't want to try anything that might make my car look all patchy Thanks :-)
