    dont get a safety devices one. my brother worked there before it went bankrupt again, the cages are now made in poland, and are not what they were as far as quality goes.

    Mk1 2litre Turbo Conversion

    turbo a valver lump as suggested, and sell williams lump. the valvers rev better and as said above you will need a williams gearbox, so dont sell that bit. i wouldnt bother getting your engine cammed etc, get it all done at the one time so everything is matched

    How low will i be able to go? (coilovers)

    mine is dropped around 60 at the front and 110 at the back on 18"s so slam it as low as you can, the only consideration you have to think of is speedbumps.

    Erm...... Little advice

    i once worked on a police sdi rover pursuit car that wouldnt run. it died during a pursuit at 120 ish. in the end we followed the air in take and found a raddit squished in at the top of pipe which was around 1 and a half inches across blocking the airflow. it was luck more than anything...

    Centre exhaust on valver

    you will lose to much back pressure and it just wont pull as it did, did this when i had a valver engine in mine, couldnt pull the skin off a rice pudding once i done it. leave as is or you'll regret it.

    17's on a MK1, back wheels rubbing BADLY! HELP!

    basically, take it to a wheel dealers etc, and they sometimes no always, have a arch rolling machine, basically, it flattens the wheel arch. if you feel it it has a lip on it and this is what catches, by rolling this flat, it takes that away, and no more rubbing. hopefully!

    Straight Swap for 182 standard CD to one with MP3

    the only headunits, i believe that work from experience are sony or alpine. as for the iso bit, renault radios are iso so should go sraight in, the only problem is the harness, that connects the stalks as this can be a bugger.

    17's on a MK1, back wheels rubbing BADLY! HELP!

    the back of mine is dropped around 90 mm, on 18"s and no problem, i take it you dont have a valver?, the other option apart from rolling arches is to get different tyres fitted which are thinner, other than that, strip it out.

    Mistake or not

    paint them luminous yellow/greeny colour and stick a 46 on your back window. then everyone will just think you are a valentino rossi fan.
