Disks are made by QEF, an established maker of OEM disks for a long time. They only thing is you will be paying £30 each for 2 rear bearings + pressing them in whereas you can buy 2 disks with rings and bearings at GSF or yozzasport for just over a ton.
IMO get a refurbed drive shaft form the likes of GSF car parts they are only around £50 you dont have to mess around with getting the old joint off the shaft etc.
koni reds or "specials" are uprated "OEM" shocks they are designed to replace original dampers and increase performance. The reason why i also suggested them was because they carry a 3 year warranty.
The yellows are for cars that a lowered and fit into their "sports" range most of those are...
The compression ratio is too high stock for a supercharger really, You would need to source some low comp pistons for it first before starting on other stuff.
I am trying sort some wiring out on a 172 cup Loom can you tell me if your car does the following:
When you unlock the car does the central curtosy light come on with out you opening your doors?
and
When you have the front wipers on and engage reverse gear does your rear wiper come on...
You could do it on a budget, the most expensive thing i can forsee is the cost of having an exhaust manifold built, a cast one would be the cheapest way like the type that ktec and BB use on their 172 turbo conversions.
Other parts could be had on ebay or scrap yards.
Depending on the output goad say 120bhp for starters, you'd need a map sensor capable of reading more then 1 bar of boost, lower compression pistons, exhaust manifold with a compatable flange for the turbo of your choice, some higher out put injectors, a turbo such as a T2 or T2.5, exhaust...
The main problem will be the pistons, standard run highish compression you could run standard but you need some type of water injection.
You could also see if any of the TCE engine parts will fit yours such as the exhaust manifold etc.
magnecores are miles cheaper BUT i have problems with them when its pissing down with rain, they dont have a tight cover over the coil pack like the standard ones do so water somtimes gets in there and causes a miss fire.
16mm bolt undone pull it out, then undo the 13mm that attaches it to the bar and it will come out then, if the 16mm bolt wont move punch it out with a small punch
If you want to just use the plip to activate the alarm then go for the cobra option at renault, they were also offering a Cat 1 upgrade alarm all in for £199.
