why do you "need" spacers??? and how big spacers do you need??

looks like very good work, id love that centre console in my car!

thatll T-cut out ;) out of interest, is that a national speed limit road?! because that is a LOT of damage?! perhaps the people were conspiring and saying you were speeding, most people think because a car is loud, it must have been going fast!! hope your ok, and have got to the doctors...

indeed, i got the actual piece you used in the guide but i saw the the rounded piece aswell and bought that :D cheers for the guide dude!

seriously WTF with this thread, its pretty obvious what is holding the boot open, if yours are fubared, get it off any way possible and learn how they come on and off, head to a local scrappy, get 2 off properly, pop them on, job done in about 2hours?!

possibly, ill run it like this for a bit, and see how i feel about it! its only a £4 mod, lol

vibrates like buggery! but the engine feels alot less like its swinging from a chandelier and about to fall out at any second, i think i need to do the gearbox mount too before it really stiffens up! im pretty sure the bushes need welding it, the entire subframe assembly bears an uncanny...

just the one for now, theres no way of getting the other to the airbox, not sure whether to replace the other fog with a blanking plate

ok a couple of little bits done today, followed foxys guide and purchased this! from b&q yes a nice piece of guttering! i then hacked it down as a trumpet for my cold air feed!! pickey mods FTW! i also cleaned up the front bumper as it was covered in glue under the numberplate...

sorry to dig this up, but i purchased a new set today off a member of clio16valver, and they didnt come with any instructions!! ive got 4 big sleeves, 4 small sleeves and 4 bushes, like this http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1052 can someone write me a quick guide to fitting...

cheers, decat and mongoose system give me that :D must have been the way i looked at it making it look low! i knew it was you, was thinking you could not have recognised me from behind :P you need to get to the next essex meet! havnt seen you at a meet in ages!

ahh such mixed opinions, gold is out of the question, it will look like a bad attempt at a williams rep!! lol half of my says go with something nutty so it grabs attention, the other half says keep it simple :(

billy youre a fncking legend mate, i do like the look of black also, not sure im brave enough to go for something larey

hurry up and get some wheels! am i the only person that thinks the sport rear bumpers make the rear arches look far too big?? you need at least 16"s to pull off a sport rear bumper

take that spigot thing out! thats all i did,

If anyone has a spare minute, could they shop me wheels black, and white, and anthracite and any other colour that might work?? would be much apprecitated!

i prefer them darker tbh, with such a strong colour, i think you should keep the range of colours to a minium, black side repeaters, bullets, wheels! silver wheels, green car, black trim = too much going on for me, all personal prefrence through, its your car!

im confused, you're taking the engine out of that RREEAALLLYYY nice ph1, and putting it in a mk1? why not just leave the engine in that?? and do a few more mods with the tim/money you would have spent changing the engines??

busy day today, got up really shocked to see the postman outside clutching a big box with spax on the side!! (i only ordered them wednesday eve) nipped to renault before i got to work as i had ordered all new bolts that link the balljount to the wish bones! if you saw earlier in the thread...

could never remember your username dude! But you were behind me after i left southend Renault and went down cherry orchard way, not sure if you knew it was me, nut you gave me a thumps up either way :P 449 valver! cars looking good! looked a lot lower!

and theyre real splits!

right because im as cool as a cucumber, ive videos the noise so everyone can better understand what im going through!! might want to turn your speakers up, i was done on my phone!! this one is me holding the revs at a steady 1500rpm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDZ1W1tRbxQ this is me...

well its got a hillpower polyeurothaine (sp) dogbone mount, this is the only lower engine mount on the car i think :S and ive just ordered an uprated engine mount from ktec as the one in there does seem to give a lot of movement, hopefully this will fix it!

ahh, look after my babies!! they did me proud! will be watching this for the updates :D

Im not 100% certain, as i see bikes all the time riding around during the day with a solid front fairing (no headlight at all) however you would not only not have the headlight, but you would not have a front indicator either, and there is a dirty great hole in the front of the car! so id...

i miss my lensos already :(

I just wondered if it is worth replacing the springs on my valver?? theyre supposidly 60mm eibach springs, the paint is starting to flake off! so no evidence of brand can be found, Do springs go limp after time? and not have the same loading strength (or whatever) that they should?? or will...

do you mean, gearbox mount, or engine mount?? or actually the gearbox?? well ive got next week off, and i should be doing some work underneigh the car, so ill have a look! lower gearbox mount is powerflex so it should be that, i did need to change the engine mounts at somepoint anways :D

lol, every single person ive asked has said spax, so this thread can be locked tbh :D thanks for the advice!

if it interests you this is the rears on 25mm and the fronts on 30mm
