Yes i see your point, i have very basic skills when it comes to engines, i can build one but i am not a person for all the timing stuff. How off will the timing be with bike carbs and ecu ? I know it will need mapping. But my knowledge only goes so far
Hmm but would a 1.2 mk1 have all those gizmo's? I personally wanted to build the 1.2 engine into an oldschool non electronic ran engine. On bike carbs.
I did a quick google on a dizzy and it can be powered off the crank or iil pump?
Unsure how that can work tbh.
So i would need carbs and still run the ecu to make the engine run ?
lol, i have yet to learn all the tricks of spraying. whats the nasty'est colour going atm?
btw you made me laugh last night when i noticed you can unbolt your old sport bumper off the red rep..... mine is well and truelly stuck on to my dci :o.
whats the plans for the R27 then mate, itb's...
lol i don't mind tbh, going from a derv to a r27 will be like stepping in a bugatti :D. altho i think i would have to respray mine nocturn iD colour off the vee's
hi all,
me and my best mate have bought a mk1 ph1 1.2 for £100 with 50k on the clocks, and we are planning on making it into a stockcar/ track car ( yes i know, small engine)
if i was to say, get 4 honda motorbike carbs/ throttle bodies, can i make them work on the 1.2 engine with...
thankyou. has been a painful task of as rebuild but all is in good terms.
the final colour was black with slight purple flakes and a heavy amount of clear coat on top.
i did think about going the whole yard and getting sport wings and skirt but i desided not to as i purely wanted a one off...
Mine has done the same thing. But i have a mk2 ph2. Checked all the fuses and changed the bulbs but i still have a dim display. Only can see the writing when its day time :/
cheers bud, hows yours coming allong ? :)
lol the one with the aircon leak... yeah :D. cheers, yeah bring it down :p
thankyou :), still far from complete but plenty of time for tweaking still ay :)
cheers, i love it, was abit half and half on the opinion if people would like it or not, but...

yup both on the cards. :)
Hmm souds like a plan :) thanks for the ideas!!
Cheers bud :)
