the 1.6 16v has rear discs IIRC !! Should be able to swap rear axle etc then its just a case of the hoses etc !!! waste of money TBH u wont need the stopping power in a 1.2 !!
I want all 3 !! 7 dials in the above colour scheme, silver with blue backlight !! and the temp thingy in blue !! can i have the heater panel in the same silver colour with a light blue and red colours for the heat bit !!
Wheres the cheapest place for an origin b2 ?? Theres one on ebay for £350 but thats seems a lot !!!
Also as the origin has GPS speed thingy do u reckon it could be used to calculate a 0-60 ??
And it will put a lot of strain on the crank as the oil will be cold and quite thick !! Imagine trying to run under water !! Its harder than running through air .. same principal only with oil which is far thicker than water !
I know !! hehe went on google search and it was the best i cud find !! U get my drift anyway !!
And lol @ the shell being different aswell !!! I really cant see a 1.2 - 172 conversion being viable !!!
Cheers Roamer !! U gonna be at this mids meet so u can take me for a spin in ur TB beasty...
Its just as bad to overfill as its is to under fill !! (unless a dry sump engine is used) On startup all engine oil will be in the sump !! Too much and its not very good for the crankshaft !!
Yeah they look good but its not worth it !! You lose 26 mm of track as posted above which is a lot !! Ruins tyres !!! and spacers are a waste of time !! Cup wheels are the way forward !! dont do it !!

The mechanics bill would equal the cost a 172 so its not worth it !! The only thing that your car and a 172 have in common are its looks !! engine,box,ECU,wiring loom, brakes, driveshafts, subframes, suspension, and anything performance related !! If the parts could be sourced cheap and you had...
I would have thought pretty much most of the car !! The only thing that will probably be original will be the shell !!! Plus I am under the impression that a Q plate would be in order ??
Ull need a special lift up reverse gear knob !! They sell em everywhere !! They are just a bit shorter because of the collar !! To get the gear knob off heat it with a hairdryer then twist it untill it comes off !! Dont know about the handbrake m8 soz !!
GO for the high output starter motor from BB should be OK i would have thought !!! have no idea on the clutch tho m8 !! Good luck with this and let us know how it goes as i might attempt this early next year too !! Where are u gonna source your engine from ?
Nope uve set them up right !! The old standard crossover obviously let more sound (frequencies) get to the tweeter !! Maybe it splits it 50-50 or summit whereas ur new ones give less to the tweeter !!
2 or so mm wont really matter !! Its when u have 12mm negative when ull have probs (like me) Uneven tyre wear etc !! Means ur tyres will last a couple of weeks instead of months
