same price as the thousand other daily threads regarding charging a clio

yes it will fit

although a pain in the arse , it could of been alot worse.. atleast you now have your money back and have learnt a valuable lesson. i had a similar experience regarding hpi's as i didnt do my own and lost approx 3.5k in a night

msg my mate, he runs this company http://www.hondatyperbreakers.co.uk/ they may have some decent upgrade parts knocking about for you.. tell them perry passed you on.

conversions arent worth the hassle unless the car has sentimental value or is unique

people are to obsessed with bhp figures.. its the torque you need. great improvement.. good job !

obvisouly fitted the kit before he could afford the paintjob.. although the car was for sale over a month ago in the same condition

dont forget to uprate the welds on the intake.. very often overlooked !

some one on here put a non sport front end on the ph1 172.. and iirc it was flush but all fit well

i was thinking the same may look like a little bit herer and there but there is some serious hours work needed on that ! il reply to pm when i can just been very busy lately

dont think they would look good on any car tbh

FLOL what a joke. there arent murders and gunshots on a regular basis.. were do you think you live some ghetto ? i know exactly what goes on around those area's, yeah its rough but very far from what your making it out to be. Think your neighbours must have COD on to loud and your mistaking...

then i would be buyin daves untill you get this btm exaust,.. that way you will get a return when you sell daves exhaust on

you havnt said why you cant get a ''btm'' exhaust straight away ?

made me lol

dont let a smart repair man do it.. if its close ish to a wing then budget for the wing to be blown in aswell, upto 200 sounds about right.. maby a touch more depending on were you go etc

'' bought'' i think they would have to go black to match your bonet... silver may look ok aswell.. or a bright orange if you lower it and do your badges the same orange

that comment wont go down well on here.. insurance on a converted car will be more than a standard 197/200. but yeah the conversion can easily be done with a little mechanical knowledge

the intercooler needs to be sized in relation to your needs.. a massive IC will cool a little more but on a smaller turbo will give you a a little more lag.. there cheap enough to swap about as and when needed. same with injectors you wont jam 1000cc's in there in the of chance you may go big...

i have a van with a 172 engine and kit fitted.. thats unique as far as i know

you probably could still have the skim done.. but then what you going to do with a head full of swarf ? and i highly doubt anywere will perform a skim with a built head.. only takes half hour to strip a head anyyway.. if that. then atleast you can renew all the seals etc while your at it

fully stripe the head back to nothing

hes doing a conversion, so has the ph1 as a donor

electrical engineering or sparkie ? 2 very very different things. 1 ecu controls the engine, ignition timing, fuelling etc. and the 2nd controls the interior.. dash, imob, CL, EW etc etc. the uch is the biggest pain as there the most temperamental ( interior ecu)

no, not really.. only when you start timing things and 10th's of a second count

can do this, the compressor is only active when engaged.. so wont add to much drag when turned of

volvo bracket ( unsure on model ) and laguna ( 2.0) alternator

fair enough. just depends how good you are with electronics.. remember u essentially have 2 ecu's to keep happy on there.. hard enough of a job when its a standard car lol.

2 years time ? thats alot of forward planning.. any reason why ? yeah no doubt they will be alot cheaper by then but its still gonna be a pig to do.. and time consuming.. the 172 stuff is plug and play.. were as the meggy will require a few wiring adjustments

only one in a van btw.. obv there is loads in non rs clio's. when i was comparing engines/prices the 1.9 dci lump was fetching around 1400 ( engine, turbo, ancilaries etc) .. then you would need a full loom and to then make it fit a clio.. then exhaust etc. or.. you can buy a sport for v...
