Having spoken to project 254 he will be able to convert your Mk1 V6 to Mk2 mechanical spec to whatever level you want, within reason e.g. Mk2 engine subframe/rear roll bar/suspension, even engine/gearbox if you wish. The bodywork is trickier since all the panels are subtly different dimensions...

I havent got your email address, thats why!!

Weird....I didnt get any delivery failure reports. Ill re-send it again this afternoon....

*** THE EMAIL WENT OUT TONIGHT TO ALL THOSE WHO EXPRESSED AN INTEREST ***

tomclio1.2 Nah, cant be doin with that sorta attitude..... The guy offering the kit Im talking about (and have had developed on my 172) is far more approachable. None of that "Im too important to talk to you little boy" bo11ox

Sure sure sure sure sure....as sure as a sure thing....positively sure Im sure....

No problem....PM me your email address

100% sure, thanx!

Arent they the same as the 172?

Theres a video kicking around of some guy spanking a Mk1 V6 in France I think. Try to find the video, and listen to the fabulous sound that engine makes. Then go and drive one and I defy you -not- to want one!!! It might not be any quicker that a 172 but it looks and sounds sooooo much better...

No problemo!

Patience....youll get full details in my email to follow in the next few days...

Nope! :cool:

*** UPDATE *** Confirmed the prices today, so will be emailing everyone who expressed interest in the kit in the next few days....and I do believe weve secured an excellent deal/price due to the volume of interest (20+).

*LOL* Exactly!! Slammed does -not- equal excellent handling. It might look like it has a touring car ride but its bound to handle like a bag of sh*te on the road!! Eibach do two kits, the Pro and the Sportline. The Pro kit lowered my Mk2 172 15mm front and 5mm rear. The Sportline is supposed...

Always been hundred plural BenR :D ... when you consider the kit as a whole - shims, bolts, springs, labour, setup etc.

Dont see why not. We can fix the price this week hopefully...

geoff - I was there, turned up late (5pm) though as I got stuck in traffic. The car was at the end of the garages, near the R-Sport car...

A superb day, and the wet weather meant less wear and tear on the tyres and brakes - phew! There was quite a mix of skills out on the track - I remember seeing one silver V6 trundling around as if he was on a Sunday drive to the supermarket *LOL* Maybe he was just wary of booting it for fear...

*** UPDATE *** Well, testing went extremely well at a damp Bedford Autodrome last Friday. I managed to get around 70 miles on-track time and was seriously impressed with the new mods. The car, in my humble opinion, is now very well balanced and well mannered, with improved turn-in and...

Just waiting to test it out later today at Bedford then well fix the price and Ill email everyone early next week...

Check out my post in the Exterior... section - "172 handling transformed" which details a package of geometry changes for a 172/Cup. If youre at Bedford tomorrow, pop over and say hello and Ill explain more...

-more- noise?! *LOL*

Got them thru at the end of last week...

Geoff - pop over and say hello (reg SA02 ***) and Ill take ya for a spin!

Hey Jamie, how are you getting on with the HP IK? Any more mods since the last Bedford day?

....to the Renaultsport organised day at Bedford Autodrome...

So how much does it cost to convert a Mk1 to a Mk2 spec and whats involved?

Ive experienced much the same thing in my Mk2 172....at anything over 110 the back is very light and at 120 it felt like it was floating!
