Thats the exact thing that pisses me off. I was in there about a month back and some Burberry wearing plank with a NOVA SRI(!) came in and asked the manager if they could fit a peco backbox he had bought. "Sure no problem mate" I think it was because I was in a suit. They probably thought...

Could you fit a decat with just the front jacked up on a 19 saloon?

Yeah it is a 10 min job when you have somewhere to jack the car up. At the moment I dont :cry:

I got out of work early yesterday and thought I would drop into Kwik Fit on the way home to get my Ktec decat fitted to my 19 valver. No customers there so I thought this will only take 10 mins. Well it would have had the fat, pube-faced teenager behind the counter agreed to fit it...

Fair point but this monkey would probably c**k it up big time. What tools necessary, surely something more sophisticated than a dremmel?

I wouldnt think in terms of notches though mate. When I lowered my mk1 clio you couldnt see the inside of the bracket, so I just had to raise arm by the amount I wanted to lower car by, then jiggle it a bit until torsion bar went in. It is very easy though.

I know there have been posts before but not found the answers I want so... I have bought myself a spare head which is in excellent condition. I want to have full headwork + cams but not sure where to go? Can anyone recommend? - Hillpower, Ktec, GDI (Andy seems like a top bloke) BB, others...

Looks nice and neat that. Does a standard airbox with foam filter sound any different to standard setup?

My mk1 1.4 clio had vented disks as standard. Should be easy swap

Change the link to p**n. Just for a week or so. That would be funny.

I used it on my clio (same rear bar setup as RSi) It was so much easier than I was expecting. Make sure you take end caps off bars and spray a load of WD40 in there about a week prior so it gets in a nd helps lubricate things. (Hee hee I said lubricate) Then just follow the guide which is...

Im sure silencer will be smaller too so it will sound louder at least.

Engine and box will fit no problems, but you may have problems with inlet manifold as there is less room in the clio bay so they fitted a squashed version. Although Andy at GDI said he had fitted a complete 19 engine with manifolds so it must be possible. You could PM him to get more info...

An interesting discussion this. For me it simply comes down to price. I saw a Williams engine come up for sale recently with 100K on the clock and they wanted £1200 for it. Sorry, but no way. I would much rather tune the 1.8 head as far as possible then put a 2.0 Megane bottom end in. Then you...

LOL Fisher Price "My first engine" Andy I emailed you about work/prices did you get it?

For control of headlights. (Kit car and not mine) Dash mounted toggle switch (cannot find a 4 position toggle switch anywhere on web) OFF - SIDELIGHTS - DIPPED HEADLIGHTS Then separate pushbutton switch for main beam. Thats his plan anyway any better suggestions? Problem is need...

Would that not mean that they also both come on in up position? Thanks for fast reply!

If I have a 3 position toggle switch and up is on, middle is off and down is on How do I wire the following? Device A is connected to up position and Device B is connected to down position This is ok, but I want both Device A + B to come on when switch is in down position and only Device A...

I am not a whistling fan. Unless they are very good. There is a blind man in our town centre who stands and whistles all day long for money. He is quite good but most people have no tune at all.

If you remember my clio, I got £3200 with all ICE and everything and that was well above top book price. If you find someone who would do those mods anyway youre looking at £3.5 IMO but you need to find the right buyer.

How much does a recond valver box cost?

Do they do one for the valver? Is there still as much feel in the changes?

That coupe turbo looks awesome. What MPG do they give?

Yeah I think Renault charge something silly like £50 for a new key. Saw a set on a clio without the centre caps on once and actually looked pretty good.

Echo what Ben just said. About 2 weeks after buying my 19 16v I got wasted by a new Golf Tdi. Was coming through a quiet village at 30 and it goes straight into nation speed limit. I was in 4th and I put my foot down and the golf just overtook and was away. Made me a bit sad to say least...

Sounds good but I hate it when people dazzle you with blatantly illegal lights/fogs etc and I dont want to be guilty of the same thing. These sportzblue not too bad then? They wont distract people?

Cheers I ordered the cheapest one :oops:

I had a 1.4S which had all the kit of the RSi including alloys and that had 165/60/14 tyres

I was just wondering because if they had put holes in the pipe or put a star inside to quiet in, then chances are it wouldnt flow as well as a normal decat. Not sure whether to spend the extra and get the silenced one. Cheers for replies
