ill look at getting some quotes, really fancy one now before i get more power, roads were a bit damp couple of weeks back and my mates civic was pulling on me no problem in the corners and this wasnt even hard driving just quick driving thru some bends
might consider an avanti then if they are worth the extra, so any place that rebuilds gearboxes will be fine for fitting? shaft need shortened with an avanti too?
does it feel any different to drive day to day or are they much the same?
how about fitting, ive never taken a gearbox apart before but ive changed a few on a clio! so getting it off and on isnt a problem its just the actual fitting of the diff?
do the standard driveshafts fit ok?
only running around 190bhp but looking at getting ITB's later this year. had a shot of a civic with an LSD yesterday and was very impressed with the pull out low speed bends you just mash the throttle and go!
they did do 100bhp ones but if its a mk2 its not a 6 speed its just a 5 speed box but its ment to be a terrible box but never used one.
dci80 uses the 172 box and dci65 uses the 1.6 box, which while still not great are ok.
dci65 has DCi in silver on the side badges, DCi80 has DC in silver...
not had time to go up yet, ill need to wait till i get paid hehe.
car seems sound so far, if it goes it goes ill put a new engine in it lol
turbo seems sweet as a nut no noise at all off it, dont think its had a hard life either that or its been replaced, not sure not got any service history...
well the reason for running the dci at the moment is to save money to pay off some debt so not till nesrer summer i dont think.
plus dci needs a few bits n bobs done to sort it out then ill mod it more. its about to hit 150,000 miles lol
ive got a cambelt sitting, had it since i got the car just never had the bloddy time! will try and get it done soon, i cant see it being too hard being a single cam engine but not really had a look yet!
im not 100% sure on the injectors i just know they need to be coded to the car, not sure if...
afaik you cant buy the clip from renault seperate, only in a cv boot kit but when my car was in to get serviced they just put a jubilee clip on it as he said the standard ones are crap.
cool mate, ill see how much he wants for the injectors and hope he doesnt know what their worth haha how much do they cost to get coded at renault? assuming no one up here can do them as far as i know apart from them, or can most diesel specialists do it?
its my daily runner at the moment as...
i take it you cant use the 172 clutches then?
i was under the impression that the injectors were the same and it was just the fuel pump that was different or is that the 80 and 100 im thinking of?
yeah that much torque would be awesome!!!
awesome man wish i could have found a dci100 intercooler :( im assuming the pipework is the same apart from you seem to have another pipe going from the top jubilee clip at the top of the radiator (drivers side) down to the intercooler, my hose connects to the intercooler at the top where the...
check the bolts holding the fuel rail guard on my mates was making a grinding noise turned out both bolts were loose and it was rattling about!, weird!
yeah realised that when i went to fit it today didnt have the pipe coming from the turbo, but went back up and got it for £2 lol
only thing thats looking like a bit of bother is the radiator on my 65 is different from the one on the 80 it came from, mine doesnt have the brackets to mount the...
coilovers are going to keep your ride comfort depending on the dampers used and if they are adjustable what you set them at, its going to handle better if setup properly and you can go as low as you want
springs are going to make it sit a bit lower, you cant adjust them, and if your using...
