Great base for a project this, can see there's plenty to do, but if you got the car for a good price as mentioned, then that makes it easier to handle the bits that need doing. Going up in value all the time these it seems! Those red powerflex mounts will be a huge improvement, I have them on...
That looks very smart indeed and the spec is very good........ well worth the wait by the sounds of it!
But yes, tints off and will look even better :up:
This is all great news, i'm excited too and it's not even my car!!
You getting that lambda sensor replaced while it's there yeah? Sounds like something pretty small could be a pain in the bum later on if it fails........ all looks and sounds great mate! :up::up:
Oh and leave the engine cover...
That's good to know Mark :up: Engine Dynamics seems to have a great rep, so all in all it should be well worth the trip there. With the bottle, i'll probably just get them to supply it to be honest but only mentioned it to Andy in my most recent email this evening so will see what we can...
😂😂 yep, I know that feeling, we've all been there!
To be honest, with the minimal mods I have and the potential new map it'll have, i'd be really happy if it made 180bhp! But again, it's that it's running ok and as it should be, that's what matters so not too bothered
Just peace of mind isn't it, knowing what it's doing....... oh and having the magic bhp figure too!
It's something so small, but always seems to get forgotten lol!
That's great news.......... well maybe not for your bank account due to the plans.......... but great news all the same! You know the car and all that's been done and have made it what it is, keep it, enjoy it, those plans sound AWESOME!
Coilovers, Recaro's, Turini's etc = :cool: and :up: at...
Small update! I've been in contact with Andy at Engine Dynamics this week in regards to getting the car re-mapped and while it's there, I've decided to get it serviced as well and this will all hopefully be happening in the next month or so, it's just a case of sorting a fixed date that suits...
Those wheels look great mate, perfect colour combo on the BG as mentioned above :up::up: Looking at the photos, it's a tough one but I think i'd have to have the stickers myself, but in a colour that's subtle and not in your face, maybe a light grey/dark silver? So I wouldn't have bright white...
I think the freshly re-furbed silver wheels will look awesome on it, very oem :up: BUT......... those blue wheels do kinda look cool, oooh choices choices!!
That's a difficult one that, i'd steer more towards the Clio direction however not because it's a Clio but because you know this car, have already spent money on it and 280bhp would be awesome fun and a good continuation of the project. A VX220 is a great car don't get me wrong, it's just...
