I've done it, bailed after only a few months. Had different ideas about the modifications we wanted to do for tracking it. Bought my own, much happier.
Brilliant idea to do a shall swap. I'd be tempted to do the same if a cup shell and cage came up one day. Would you not be better trying to buy a cup subframe? No-one ever buys parts like that so they much be cheap as chips. Postage would be the main killer.
I hammerited by dci subframe when I...
Bought mine two years ago. Saved me hundred in bills.
You can configure airbags easily with them but be careful as you can also screw up a lot of stuff if you don't know what you're doing. I wiped my ecu file once ;)
Common low fuel pressure symptoms. When the idle increases there's likely a dash light showing.
Dampness around the injector would be the injector seal, that affects cylinder pressure. Copper washer on the bottom of the injector may have gone.
Starting issues is likely to be a fuel system...
go to the city, have a few drinks in tower 42 (city social), head to madisons for a bit, then somewhere filthy like roadhouse in covent garden and then you can decide the rest depending on what a crazy amount you've spent.
No! But.... I have a good friend who does a lot of high end cars so may be worth a buzz. The work he does is insanely good. The 106 gti he used to have looked like brand new and things have only got better and better since. https://www.facebook.com/DetailDriven2014/?fref=ts

my car had 172 running gear for a while and it looked a lot lower than a standard clio and it was noticeably wider at the front. That would be the only tell tale though.
I've got a full plug set at home and the copper loop for anyone looking to do this. It's a mismatch of 3 brass bungs, 1 lambda bung and a home made loop but it worked perfectly. Don't know what it's worth so offers if anyone is interested.
Not a bad earth!
Sorted this problem today. Spent a while looking at the wiring diagrams and found that pin 3 of the coil shares the same 12v as the feed for the fuel pump. When both plugs were disconnected there was 4v at the coil pin and 3.9v at the pump. As soon as you connected either of the...
Had my dci for the last 50k of mainly flat out motorway driving and it's been absolutely trumps. At 154k it's now giving up the ghost, the engine is using oil and the car doesn't start without easy start. Make sure you check for fuel pump failure by being at 1500 revs and then flooring it in...
Evening chaps,
I've now got this car. Spent a bit of time looking at it and the pump. As said before the pump works when on an independent power source.
When you turn the ignition on there is 12v between the live and ground on the plug. As soon as you plug the pump in the 12v dies almost...
Yeah that's the one! I haven't actually had time to look into this properly but I've had someone kindly set me up a PC with an SQL server and basic application so I can get to grips.
I did watch a touch of the video and wrote the standard "hello world" application with it.
