I don't think they'd need to weitec specifically mate, anything would do I'd imagine as they're not going to differ too much from make to make.
You just want the whole lower adjustment platform
But IMO, mainly an enthusiast-ish sort of person would pay that, a chav would just want something to go fast and not cost that much.
In my local area, I can honestly say I've never seen a chav in an RS, I think I'm pretty much the youngest person I've seen driving one.
Dan, I'd buy it. I'm serious.
Although tbh mate, I think you should keep it. It's a lovely car, get the niggles sorted out and just enjoy it, what you've listed that needs doing isn't even an afternoon's work and you know it!
If you actually use it as your car, rather than smoking around in...
Not sure I agree Alan, I think the only thing keeping them from being really abused is the insurance group, kids look at them in the same class as polo git's/106gti/saxos and when they go to cost up insurance, the increase puts a lot of people off, and I'm glad of it.
Even at 22 the ph1 was...
That's bloody awful!!!
Kick up a fuss in halfords, very politely, explain it's just wasted x amount of cans of other stuff, if you have the recipt, even better, and try to get some new cans to start again, at least the prep is done (the hard bit).
They're probably on his mate Jim's, brother's, best mate's, uncle's car at the moment.
So this post is constructive, I'd guess around 10kg for a full set of springs.
What car did you buy in the end? I remember you PM'ing me looking for one, but haven't seen what you bought. Pics and I'll tell you where to spend your dollar. First impression is try get yourself a set of recaro's, most worth while thing you could do IMO ;)
It is a ph1 he has Fubar, but he's spent a small fortune on making a track car, but never taken it on track... lol!
Then he asked why he was getting fed up with it!
Before asking/doing any more at all, get the car on track.
Running ph1 clocks is not a prob with ph2 dash though, then you need dynamic heater controls for the AC to work, as they are the same control type as the ph1, but obviously fit in the ph2 dash, then there's a wiring guide to make other features work, i.e rear window de mist, clock, etc etc etc
Ph1 172 will take - Ph1 172 box, laguna v6 box (JMS style setup), or anything like a BMC CDA on a 90 degree elbow.
The ph2 box is no only poor in comparison, but I think you'll struggle to fit it.
EDIT: You can get the v6 airbox from Wests Renault off here for not a bad price iirc.
