Thinking about a rollcage for my 1.8 valver (preferably bolt-in, without going through the dashboard) but am having problems finding links! Anyone know any good sites?

Quick, question; How much would powerflow take to make a stainless exhaust centre section for a valver (roughly) and how long would the take? thanks.

Well finally, after all the hassle involved, i got the call from the garage to say my car was ready - williams front track was fitted! Pics to follow over the weekend but ive been out driving it all evening and can tell you if you have a valver, get this mod done! The difference is tremendous...

K-tec seem to do a low-pressure turbo kit fot the 19/clio 16v costing about 3k (obviously cheaper than BB) but i havent heard of anyone going for it. Has anyone seen or tried the conversion or offer any input as to its quality/reliability etc...

Bodywork on my valver will need done at some point so am just wondering how much a respray (flash over) would roughly cost? I also have the obligatory arch rust and a few dents - how much extra to sort them? Thanks!

As you know, im getting the williams front track fitted to my 16v at the moment but the garage has phoned me with a problem; Basically on the drivers side when they tighten everything up, the lower balljoint cannot be moved out far enough (by about half an inch) to allow it to fit to the hub...

Tempted to fit an induction kit again (miss the noise!) to my 1.8 valver but dont want to loose the power that the standard airbox offers. Is there any induction kit out there that offers the noise without the heat problems normally assosiated with open cones. Viper etc is out as theyre far...

Hi, how easy is it to remove the inlet manifold on a 16v/williams? Will i get away with removing the front cross member and radiator and undoing the bolts or is there more work involved? Do i need gaskets/torque settings to refit it? Likewise for the rocker cover - presume thats just a...

Right, my 16v is booked in thursday for the willy front track conversion so im just checking to make sure theres nothing small ive missed out. Ive currently got; Willy wishbones, Willy shocks, Willy ARB, 4 ARB bushes and clips (2 for the wishbone end mounts and another 2), R19 16V...

Say you click on a part to get the number and it has the option of several different numbers in a drop-down box - what does this mean? Can any of them be used or are the minor differences to be aware of before choosing the correct one? Thanks

Yo, my phase 1 1.8 valver seats arent height adjustable but id like them to be so the seat can go lower! I take it its just a matter of me getting a seat frame from another clio to suit and bolt it in but will result be able to go lower than my non-adjustable seat can? Can anyone recommend...

Hi, a few months ago i posted up that i was planning to retrofit the williams front track to my 1.8 and have so far assembled all the parts bar the longer driveshafts needed. I know the R19 uses the same wishbones and ARB as the willy so the question i have is.... ...would R19 16V...

Whats best - silenced or not for the centre section? Getting one made up to mate with a magnex backbox and bb de-cat so need to know if thered be any difference in performance? How loud is unsilenced anyway?

As above - does anyone know? I did send an email to david last year and he was saying theyd have their demo car on the rollers in january but have heard nothing about it! Are they having problems with it - i know webber have withdrawn their kit for "further development" too....

Any thoughts on how much a garage would take to fit ARB, 2 driveshafts, 2 wishbones, 2 front shocks or how long? I have the parts but Im just wondering out if i can afford the labour for fitting my willy front track this month...... Many thanks!

All you 16v/willly owner; what would you say is the best exhaust for power available for our cars and the best for looks? Reason i ask is that i had a BB system before but found it stuck out to far from the back bumper (although it did spit flames). Ive since gone standard (apart from decat)...

my engine is developing a kindof "chirping" noise which id assume can only be either a belt needing tightened or some kinda of pulley. If its the pulley how easy would this be to sort? i.e. would it be another engine out job do you think? Its a 1.8 valver btw.....

What bhp/torque can a new standard valver (1.8) clutch safely take do you reckon (and for how long)?

Just a dial pod to replace the centre air vent on my valver and was wondering if anyone had some ideas on what to put in it (2 holes)?. I was thinking about voltmeter/ammeter as the 16v has the main dials already but would like some that moves about a fair bit....can you get an AFM gauge...

Hi, does anyone know if this will fit under some 16v phase 1s? Also, what like is the fitting? I had this kitted fitted to my 1.6 megane a year or so ago and had problems - is this the case on the 16v/willy? Thanks!

Probably a dumb question but where is it on the 1.8 16v engine and how easy to fit a new one? Thanks!

Interested in the above as i may now have access to a garage for a project soooo....how easy would a 1.8 16v go into a standard (N/A) renault 5? it must be possible cos ive seen a turbo shell with a valver lump dropped in but would like to know if it could be done easily on a standard (say...

As above, who has/has heard of the highest 1.8 16v milage? Mines on 132k - just run in! ;)

Hi, im actually wanting to fit some some dimma rear arches (possibly bumper) to my valver as theyre about the best ive seen. The trouble is i dont think dimma sell the stuff separately unless youre an existing, accident damaged owner so.... ...would anyone who owns one be willing to pose as...

does anyone know where i can get a hold of some aftermarket guages (voltmeter etc) to match the rest of the clocks in my valver (ie black with white needle, illuminating orange)? Thanks.

Ok, dont think im some kinda ned boy racer or anything but.... i was tanking it down country road at the w/e doing my "wanna be Jean Ragnotti" routine and thought id try a handbrake turn (which failed!) so im kinda wondering how you actually do one? Do you need a fairly tight handbrake...

When i was trying to repair my temp sensor i got the one below. However, its blantantly not the correct part for my clio but what car is it actually for? :confused: 77 00 773 858

As per the topic on retro fitting willy suspension to my 16v im gonna go up to the parts dept at lunchtime to cost everything up. Theyre gonna ask for an oval plate number so could someone give me theirs? Cheers! :D P.S I dont know if it makes any difference but preferably need one from a...

As per another post, im planning to fit the willy wider track setup to my valver but ive been told the tyres might catch the arches if i have it lowered - seems likely knowing waht like the valver is! If youve had experience of a lowered willy could you tell me how bad the catching actually is...

I know this has come up in the past, but im struggling to find the definitive answer to the parts i actually need! Anyway, to go from 1.8 16v to Williams Front track what do i need and what can i keep from my existing setup? Also, whats it likely to cost? Thanks!
