ok ive got a 1.2 but im going to be using a 16v front setup. which discs and pads shall i use? im after some good but cheap ones. prices and where i can get them from would be great aswell. thanks
where you from mullins? maybe we should get a meet organised to see your car when its done, im sure a few will wana see months of waiting to see if its paid off.
yeh but the 1.2 engine doesnt really offer alot of performance tbh does it? the 1600 engines give a lot more power than 60bhp from the 1.2 8vs well im only saying that for myself id not have that kit on a 1.2 but on a 1.6 or 172 i would.
lol i think i heard that before. its got to have cost the bloke whos doing it more than what mullins has paid with the amount of time hes had it and man hours thats gone into it
now that looks nice but you gota av the power to go with that though, cant have that kit and look with a small 1.2 engine really can you. gota av sumet filling the engine bay!
How long til its finished this time mullins?? think we should have a cliosport massive feature and photoshoot lol
yeh im assuming it will make a difference to my bank account as well lol. i think this will end up costing alot more than i first planned on, not really any point doing a 1.8 conversion to get a williams lump and everything else shortly after really.
Would i be better off splashing out for the...
well ill have to see how much it will all cost in parts since i kinda want the engine to be running like new, get all refurbing done while engines out etc.
am i right thinking my current cat-back exhaust will be ok aslong as i have a 16v/willy decat and downpipe?
Anyone know anyone or...
thanks for all the feedback, i will probably modify the standard bonnet as i want to keep the standard 1.2 look. i may end up dropping to a valver engine as i know they can be picked up alot cheaper and possibly upgrade in the future. that a better idea? dont quite fancy buying a new car just...
tbh i didnt think it would be that expensive! think the fitting price is wrong though i did get quoted £150 for an engine fitting if i supplied all the parts.
just wondering what im likely to pay for a williams engine, 16v gearbox and manifold, and ecu plus fitting into a 1.2 rl shell?? heard id need fuel pump and that, not sure about driveshafts. any ideas on prices?? cheers. looking for it all doing in november/december time.
which civic? 1.6vti or 1.8vti and which shape? the smaller one or the bigger one? if it was the bigger civic id put my bets on the williams. id say the little civic would pull away a little bit but williams would win in the end. not so sure about on twistys though. civics sit quite low and...
im not right sure what im looking for or where they will be lol. are they directly beneath the seats? underneath something? no idea where anything is under the car lol.
ok ive stripped rest of the car out as im swapping interior for a 16v one and ive come to the front seats and i cant get them out, the screws are really tight and wont move, ive gone at em that hard that the bit just spins in the head. how do i get them out?? some of the heads are just flat...
lol why stop at his bonnet? go out and have a good night out and have loadsa curry, then take a trip down and just......well do what patty says but itl be more messy lol.
Fred the cars still in the bodyshop and aparently looks no different than it did weeks ago.
i cant see killing him being a good idea,, but if u were a police officer ud prob get away with it. next time you go down jus go and have a private chat with him but be polite dont start shuoting just say "im going to kill you" lol jus kidding, ask him what is happening with it now because he...
if they had loads of work on though it would be understandable but like you say that yours is the only one there? what has he been doin hes gota av bin tossin it off surely. in all fairness though it doesnt take this long to do what your havin done unless its a proper flat out place like avon...
lol cant believe how long its been in! my mates prelude with the 5k kit has ust been sprayed and its gettin a coat of laquer tonite, that however is no where near ready, still got carbon roof and carbon boot done and a fair few coats of laquer n dry pearl. his went in in feb aswell but didnt get...
i cant say that kit is to my liking, a few months ago i wud av got a it for mine but over time, a short period of time that is i grew out of it. ad av a kit but i wun go for an extreme one. but if thts what u wana do then do it dont let ppl put u uoff if its what u wana do so much. its obvious...
