Mr front eibach pro's where fitted yesterday - rears are going on sunday - and I'm amazed how much its dropped by! I have a mk2 ph1 on 15's and the ride height at the front is perfect. Arches are just above the wheels. I'll get some pics up later if I get chance.
As for performance...
i'm thinking of having my dynamique alloys refurbed in white, they do need a FULL refurb as well as painting, any ideas on price? i'm in the west midlands But if somewhere is particularly cheap i dont mind traveling.
Right, so far I either have, or am getiing this month a 172 spoiler, dynamique alloys, eibach pro's, OMP strut brace, Painted engine cover, ph2 seats and ph2 rear lights.
What would you buy next? upto about £100.
Also out of that lot, what needs declaring? I have alloys, suspension and...
Can i just spray the engine cover in the paint i want then lacquer it, or do I need to use special paint? I have some metallic paint i bought ages ago and would like to spray it thyat colour, then put a cliosport sticker on, then lacquer over that to seal the sticker in, would this work??
Hiya guys, i've got a cat back exhaust at the moment but where the exhaust goes over the rear beam, they left the original mild steel inplace, how much should i expect to pay for that to be made up? and secondly, how much should I pay for a stainless steel centre silencer? i want to put my decat...
Whats needed to relocate the battery? and how do you go about it? I'm guessing you just need something in the boot to mount the battery on, a possitive feed from the front of the car to the boot, and connect the earth to an earthing point in the boot? if thats right whats the best route to...
can some one colour code this for me please! everything thats black blastic (including the wingmirror surrounds and mounting plate) except the 1.6 badge please.
I have mk2 ph1 1.6 8v. I have dynamique alloys, twin exit cat back exhaust, eibach pro's (going on next month) ph2 rear lights (again going on next month) and a 172 spoiler.
What should i do next? I have been considering BenR's inlet manifold work, a Green Dynatiwst induction kit, or...
hello all, i'm after an idea of what mods to do to my car, AND the order in which to do them. At the moment I have a cat back exhaust, dynamique alloys, 172 spoiler, have eibach pro's to go on. Any recomendations for mods? Preferably insurance (bell) friendly. This is the list i have in my...
since putting on my new alloys (gone to 15" from 14") my mpg has dropped from an average of 31mpg to an average of 27! is this due the extra width of the wheels or is something wrong??
i know someone that has a ph2 or later valver (one of the ones with a renault immobilizer) its causing her problems for some reason, i cant remember exactly how, but something to do with that and her clifford alarm not working. From what she's told me the garage has said, if she didnt have a...
one of mine has snapped. how easy us it to replace? my garage want 55quid for it and i just havent got it. is it particular urgent that i get it done? I understand what it does, but not sure if it will cause any damage to anything else.
Just cleaned it, and its just had a 172 spoiler and dynamique alloys, what you all think?
sorry pics are sideways, havent got time to turn them round. to see bigger pics jus click on them and it'll take you to the full size pic on putfile
I'm puting on some 15" dynamique alloys on friday, and want to know what pressures i should run. I have 165/65/14 at the moment and i tend to run 35/30 the new tyres will be 185/55/15 suggestions?
first of all, how much should I expect to pay for mk1 172 wings and front bumper, and whatever else i need to put them on my mk2 ph1? secondly will side sstrips off a 3door fit a 5door? I want to get some mk2 172 or 182 side strips as they are already painted.
i have a decat pipe, which, as i cant seem to find a buyer for am probably going to refit. What i need to do though, is make the thing quieter! So i have a few questions, can i just fit a bigger/more effiecient centre silencer? (all i have at the moment is basically a staight through pipe) if...
how do i get my 1.6 8v it? Not that i can afford to dop anything to it right now, but thats my target figure if i decide to do exstenvive work to my car. Idea behind it is that with that kind of power I should be in the 172/182 leauge as my car would hopefully, still be around 200kg lighter...
at the moment i have standard 14" alloys and will be buying some 16" prorace 2's which weigh about 6kg. as these are light wheels will they affect performance at all? increase or decrease acceleration?
I am very close to ordering my new alloys, I know which ones i want but am still unsure whether to go for 15's or 16's. I have a mk2 ph1 that will be lowered on eibach pro's, so only 20-25mm drop. I think the 15's will look a bit small for aftermarket wheels, but will 16's make my car look...
ok now not only is my gearstick squeeking like a pig being molested, but occasionally it wont go into first easily, takes a few attempts, and also now occasionally grates as i put into 5th. Any ideas anyone??
..gear stick and steering wheel. Whenever i change gear the gear stick makes a squeeky sound, like it needs a dose of wd40, and now the steering wheel has started, only noticeable when stationary. any ideas?
