Just fit full new oem engine mounts it will drive like a new car without the banging

Bilstien do the struts

I can not stress enough how bad these are lol

I had them on my corsa got them brand new off ebay for £200 posted they are the worst suspension you could ever buy it like driving along on a pogo stick there is no damping once you hit a bump thats it you are bouncing for the next few minutes.

does the williams actually need playing with? i'm looking forward to taking my mates out to see just how good they really are :)

mates just bought one we'll be comparing them properly at the weekend

interior is horrible not debating that i'm on about the fun driving factor and the rawness of them. i don't use it everyday so interior isn't an issue for me

Its got to be ph1 i wouldn't have anything else clio wise. I've been looking at ph2's with my mate and they are just not the same

i'm sure honda is the same pcd. i'd google it

Anyone else know this? i know the bilstein are supposed to be better for track as they are stiffer and h&r for road as they are more like standard but i can can get the bilstein cheap so couldn't you just use softer poundage springs on the bilstiens? Sorry if this is a hijack but i thought if...

swap the tires back to how they were and see how it is then. i didn't have any problems fitting sportlines to my old car

all common problems that you are going to encounter at some time. i'd not bother with a standard system. the car i have just bought has reciepts for five back boxes lol

just read the last post the vecs 320ftlb but 190bhp not 290bhp lol

Yeah he's my mate i was talking about. About ten minutes after taking you out the back box fell off which solved the lack of revs lol. Can't wait to get them both out together. the williams was chucking flames out on the run back home lol its a bit of an animal

Shame you didn't sell us that car it looks far better than all the others we looked at. My mate ended up getting a williams instead though

I've used the £13 halfords pads and they were great. i'm not a driver who relies on the brakes alot though i tend to adjust speed before the corner rather than just slamming on. Never Had brake fade with them and at £13 you can afford to replace them more often not that i needed too.

take it to any of the big garages and they should be able to do it for you. i'd go to quick fit as they have an insurance company as well who tesco deal with

i'd watch for all your other mounts wearing quicker now that is fitted. i fitted all new mounts to my other one and will be putting them on my current one. i'd reccomend renewing all four mounts with oem spec as the difference is amazing especially when compared to the worn mounts.

Hello there i hope someone will be able to help you with the problem you are having :)

Its a great time to buy one but not to sell. there is so much choice about that you can afford to be very picky with them. Me and a mate looked at a phase two 172 yesterday it was on ebay the guy wanted £3500 for it. he ended up winning it himself for £1800. He rang us back later and we offered...

Hopefully not long i want one lol

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Is it quick? Nick says it was but if you were racing him anything would look quick (only kidding nick ;))

i've been told not to touch greenstuff, yellow stuff are pretty much the same as standard and red stuff is an upgrade. but majority of people go for the ferrodo ds2500 as these seem to be a very good pad

It makes quite a difference, the car feels more nimble on the road. the best way to discribe it is like the guy above says. its like going from having two people in the car to just you. But if you going to take the seats out you mays well strip the rest of the stuff in the rear. Watch the back...

.

Pics of it will hopefully be up this evening if its not too dark when he's picked it up :)

The williams is so cool! this ones way better than the other we looked at and my god there are some baggy 172s about

i was chasing it all the way home in my barge lol i had it on some bits :)

a guided tour would be great it'll be my first time on track as i wimped out with the other one. I'm hoping to do my own project thread soon so i'll send a link to you so you can see i'm taking good care of it hopefully we will speak soon

i've not actually bothered to look lol. my old one had cheap tax as dvla had put the emissions of a 1.2 down on the logbook. i think its something like £205 a year i paid £120 before lol
