    turbo

    dont mean to sound rude mate but forget it. Even if you could find somewhere to fabricate custom manifolds, they would cost an absolute fortune. Then you have the issue of only 1 injector so fueling is going to be a problem. Overall much cheaper to have a 5gtt engine fitted

    45’s or 50’s

    on a 16v 195/50 are fine, on a non 16v you would be better with 195/45 if you are planning on lowering it as they wont scrub. They might not with 195/50 but more likely to. I have 195/45/15s lowered 55mm at front and about 70mm at back and with 4 up on full lock there isnt any catching or...

    Latest pics of my car - what do you think

    Cheers for the comments, Im trying to get the subtle look rather than anything too in yer face. Rick I know what you mean, after FCS I came away thinking whatever I do I have to get a valver somehow. Was thinking of putting all standard bits back on, selling in autotrader and buying a valver...

    Can you get tilting subframes for the mk1 clio? Thereby allowing me to fit fixed back buckets and still gain access to the back?

    Latest pics of my car - what do you think

    Hey Rick hows it going mate! Yeah fitted it last weekend, I used 6mm nuts and bolts so there is no way that sucker is coming off. Very easy to do, it fitted the shape of the bumper almost perfectly, just needed to hold the sides in a little bit whilst I got jiggy with the drill...

    prima

    I spoke to them at FSC and also got a renault price list. Wasnt too impressed TBH I asked them what the measurements quoted on their Koni shocks were actually for (55mm and 61mm) and the guy just said "dunno"

    Koni shocks - any good

    Yeah the 54mm ones are too small (narrow and bolt holes too close) Thats the other measurement Koni use centre of bottom bolt to centre of strut body 55mm or 61mm Need to take one off and have a good look I think. What do valvers have? 54mm?

    FAO Mr Read

    Alright mate, just wondered about your 200sx Is it an S13 or S14? Whats it like? Thinking of buying into cheapish RWD Turbo antics and seen a couple of S13s that I like the look of. Are they robust cars? - Most of the ones Ive seen have got quite a few miles on the clock Cheers for any...

    Koni shocks - any good

    Finally I found a company that do not think I am mad when I say the distance between the mounting holes on my front struts is 58mm NOT 52mm or 54mm That company is Koni, the only ones I have found to offer front clio struts with a 58mm gap (only found on 1.2 + 1.4 phase 3 clios made in 1998...

    Respray ideas/colours wanted

    Have to praise these guys...

    Big City Tyres in Nottingham. Went on the recommendation of Daz for another Powerflow backbox. About 2 months ago I had a back box with twin square tailpipes fitted by Top gear in West Brom. I decided with the French car show on Sunday to have another one put on and ditch the spare wheel...

    Help with single wiper

    Go the kit today and fitted it with wiper parked on passenger side of windscreen. Was fine until bolted new wiper in place and it swept downwards onto the bonnet! looked at linkage and turn motor arm 180 degrees, then did it again. This time it swept up to half way then down onto the bonnet...

    Painting mirrors

    Got a set of DTMs I want to fit for SUnday, spent tonight shaping the baseplate to fit nicely. Now my dilema. I could just fit them and make do for now (black) or I could have a bash at spraying them. (got the primer, paint) + laquer Is it difficult, any tips?

    PLEASE REPLY FAST!

    Cheers mate, I tried it again tonight and it worked, albeit a little flickery. I think its drawing a lot of current. The beeping which I was worried about is the inverter alerting me to the fact that the battery voltage has dropped below 10.5volts It auto shuts off if it gets any lower...
