Here it is - went to pick it up tonight - fits really well, is very strong - 4 layers of silicon plus an inner layer which is resistant to oil so will not deteriorate inside with the oil that comes from the breather. Breather and induction pipe are all one piece. It is really well made and in...
Hes only down the road from me but I am still to meet him! I dont think the phone number is working at the moment either - I have been trying to speak to him for the last couple of weeks. From poeple I know though he is supposed to be s**t hot with brakes - I think Fred (yozzasport) knows him...
looks a minter Justin - shall see it up close at the castle coombe day
what exhaust are you getting - I assume by coming to CArdiff you mean Prospeed and not for another Longlife - if so please rethink and go to Prospeed - Longlife ruined my car - must have lost 20bhp when I had their exhaust...
thats right chris - always helps.
I can assure you Samco have never made or sold these before - If they had I would have bought one! The design manager asked me to take my car in a couple of weeks ago - took the breather pipe off the car and designed the pipe there and then on paper - as said...
I would expect them to be able to do it in a day - If either of you are serious Ill get the name of the guy you need to speak to and his number. As said though they asked me so are defianetly up for it.
Samco are making one at the moment - I took my car in about a week ago for them to use to design their own. This will include the full breather pipe as well. Will be rady for sale within the next couple of weeks
Hi All
I recently took my car to the Samco head office for them to make some new parts for it. Anyway while I was there they asked me if I knew anyone or could find anyone with a clio 197 that would be willing to take their car into them for them to make a set of water pipes/induction pipes...
fair play mate - going for it! even doen the throttle body!! I have been meaning to get a spare to polish but as its a moving part want to keep my original as I know it works well.
Are you putting a cover on the engine?
Samco pipe should be available next week hopefully - They are...
they were really easy to fit Andy - I did it myself which I was quite pleased with lol! Only thing I will say is be careful with the jubilee clips - if you slide them around on the pipes too much the clip takes the shine off the pipes. Luckily I had loads of them at the time so fitted another...
if the parts are already polished you just use metal polish to shine them up when dirty. To Polish them that shiny in the first place is a ot of work to do by hand - best finding a metal polisher to do it for you
the strips do have a plug which holds them in place - they would be too eay to get off otherwise - when you open the door you will see a rubber grommit on the inside at the same height as the bump strip - remove this and inside you will see the back of the strip - you need to use a screw driver...
about £25 iirc.
Fred - so I take it driving through a lake/flood wasnt good to the Ka then?? lol - was it under warranty? No wonder my OBD scanner didnt work!
yeah they are green stuff pads - think it was my dodgy driving as well - ill test them properly at castle combe next week
cool glad my plenhams not too bad - should be looking spot on when its fitted.
I sent all those new parts I bought away to be repolished - should be looking good when they...
best to just get the half set for ease of fitting - mine took about 45mins and I am far from a mechanic! I can sort some for you if you want them - pm me for details.
mine are pictured here
just been looking at 4-pots! I'm gonna get them checked out I think
Gonna phone Godspeed tomorrow - see if I can wangle a deal lol
Nice to meet you too Rich - your gonna be a busy man for the next few months mate with all your plans but should be a minter when your finished
