hey all, before i ask this, i must warn u im not mechanically minded!
i would like to know what mods are available to me to make my valver not only faster but torquier.
ive been told a megane 2l bottom end, but dont know what is!
oh and how can i shield my k&n from my engine plz.
-->BV
i considered that, but not sure what to get and how much the wheels themselves would be worth, any ideas, they have a few kurbages round the rims but thats it, all with good rubber on em.

my valver has from what i believe a sound engine in it having only dlone just over 70k on a K reg and having been lookid after by me and the last owner.
could anyone sujest ways of improving the lower down grunt of the car, im chuffed with its performance but cant help thinking that im missing...

ive been having a sh*tty night at work tonight so thought i would come on here now ive finished and share my ponderments(think thats a word, if notit is now!!!)
with u all!
i currently have a valver with k&n and magnex back box, now i was thinking of going down the willy engine route but iwas...
well ive got ph1 and my mate a ph2, and when they are sat next to each other, mine looks alot meaner but yeah as far as i know its just cosmetic!!!
dont some ph2s have white dials to???
-->BV
valver, definately.
0-60 in mid 7s for a good one
top end fairly good
reliability depends on the previous owner, will see of a golf gti 8v (i take it ur mate has one of these)
paid 2100 for my K reg, just shy of 2100 worth of reciepts, spare set of ph1 alloys, ph2 grille still in...
i know that there are cosmetic differences in the 3 phases of willys, such as lights/interior/and all the other gubbins, but i was pondering tonight at work if the 3 phases had the same engine, or if renault had tweaked/changed them as the brought the newer versions out!
if anyone knows the...
i love the engine in my valver but i always have and always will want more out of thecar i own!
therefore i was wondering which is thebest route to take
1. save up fora willy engine transplant with will box
2. as above but with valver box
3. play about with the current 1.8 engine!

-->BV
well i suppose its cheatin a little bit cause the guy i spoke to knows my dad and he said he can usually charge 250-300 depending on the bonnet, and he said he wouldnt charge for labour!
thinki better get saving!
can anyone tell me where i can get ,y hands on a scale model of a valver???
im desperate to get one cause i think it would be cool to have ur car in your house aswell as outside it!!!
i know its sad aint it!

does anyone else find it expensive to insure and run their valver, ive only had it 3 months and im struggling like mad! I think i jumped the gun going from a corsa(i know) to my valver. Although i love the car to bits and everytime i put my foot down it brings a huge smile to my face, i think...
well, if u deo decide to get that, (and id think long and hard about it if i were u) i have a phase 2 grille from renault still in the bag with all fixings, just needs painting.
but as everyone else has said, itsnot worth the hassle to be getting that one, u need to start looking in the trader...
Would i be able to fir the wheels that are on my mates mega-fit sisters saxo onto my valver???
Not too sure they would fit, they are those 7 spoke ones by BK! dunno if that helps at all, but it think they are replicas of the BK ones, they only have 4 bolt fitments not multi bolt fitments...
well, i reckon i might be a bit wrong here, but i filled the tank up on my 93 valver on saturday, ive done 320 miles since then and still have over 1/4 left!!!!! now it sounds even better than i already thought! its runnin on 15" willy replicas, has magnex BB and K&N and thats it!
i remember going to the cruise on southport beach a few yrs ago and seeing from what i remember about 8 valvers/willys racing up the beach looked well ace, then after about 10 secs a skyline came hurtling past all the clios, what a grin i had on my face. it was this big!
