right i have searched but just want to clarify something i am fitting a pair of sparco sprint 5 seats (side mounted), so i've looked at subframes to mount them im not bothered about runners (only me driving it so once its set up its all good) so i was thinking of getting these...

ive just done mine online for the 106, £140 for the year no idea on the clio, tis SORN'd at the mo and will be staying that way for a while yet!

right looks like im gonna have to get hold of a 172 gerabox mount and have a mess around with it anyone got one? ;)

ive ordered some from a website :D they are like the ones meek racing posted, decided on black in the end

thats them :D

oh hang on a minute, i think we are talking about different decals im on about the ones that go on the spokes on willy wheels, not the ones that go on turinis in the center and are curved

say what now? :o

why's that?

well first search ive found some 4 inch ones, reckon they will be ok? oh and what colour do you reckon for white wheels? black, silver, grey or graphite? im thinking black just for the contrast in colour?

someone on here posted a pic up of some speedline decals they put on their alloys, cant remember who it was now anyone know where i can get them? cheers

Re: My mk1 track car blog chuff bags!!! i was wondering f it would drop it any lower lmao f**ck knows what to do with the gearbox mount! might just get the 172 brace hole tapped to suit the thread on the valver bush, what you reckon? its either that or get the full 172 setup and use that...

Re: My mk1 track car blog right so today i started with this and eventually ended up with this its sat on 2 mounts, engine and dogbone (although thats the valver lower part of the engine mount, does anyone know if i need the full 172 mount?) got a bit of fettling to do to...

right! looks like im either gonna have to go for the full 172 setup or try this one using the 172 gearbox 'brace' and valver bush nothing is ever straight forward is it lmao

right so what bush was that using? all original 172 mount? or mix and match 172 mount and valver bush? cos thats what im trying and which bolt hole didnt line up?

what you mean it fits fine? using the 172 gearbox mount? got any pics of how it fits? im using 172 box

got a question for you bud :) got my engine in today, the gearbox mount (not the dogbone), what have you done with it to make it right? im thinking of having the 172 mount hole tapped to fit the valver bush, if you get what i mean?

Re: My mk1 track car blog lol brave comments on here :D the engine will be getting no more than breathing mods, not aiming for maximum output, just a light car with a decent engine, will do until the urge for more power overcomes me :rolleyes:

Re: My mk1 track car blog whereabouts in yorkshire are you mate? will have to bring the old girl for a meet when shes ready (by god shes gonna be a dirty little sl@g lol) thought about VAG, but management seemed to bump up the cost which i wasnt keen on. cheers for the luck, i'll be...

Re: My mk1 track car blog you are right an f7r would have worked out cheaper, but there is something about mixing old styling with new engine that appeals to me i like a challenge, and building this on a budget was what i wanted, tbh ive got enough money to just throw my wallet at someone...

Re: My mk1 track car blog oh dear the budget has just taken another setback lol seen some carbon fibre stuff i want, i dont NEED it, but since when did that matter?! lol

Re: My mk1 track car blog now i dont think that would be a fair race lol if i can have a second head start for every pound less i have spent than him then i might have a go ;) :rasp:
