mine pops like mad, they are very popy engines, not sure about on a backbox but my powerflow cat back pops like mad.

my 1.2 clutch cable lasted 135k/ 3.5 years. was very creaky and heavy by then.

im all for novas but that coment isnt true ^ plenty TB'd clios with only 240bhp that would nail that round a track, you ever seen a c20let corsa or nova trying to go round a bend?! coilovers or no coilovers they dont handle worth a f**k too nose heavy and far far to much power, even with the...

whats the part number for the grill?

lol ive got johns old wheels and alans old exhaust! might end up with 16s on it again soon as im getting a mk1 172 so the 1.2 wont need to handle perfect, it'll just be my wee run arround to get me to work and back!

lol sounds like a chavs dream car, wheelspins without effort! good way to eat driveshafts lol. mine gives a bit of axel tramp when i go into 2nd when accelerating hard but it doesnt start spinning (doesnt do that with the eagle F1s tho, cant wait to get them back on)

lol car looked fine just the plate looked a bit weird. aye a heard it flying past sounded good, whats it running now is it over 200 brake?

goes like f**k down a backroad with 15s, eagle f1s and coilovers lol

ph3 will 99.9% be 259mm not the smaller ones

its what?!

i like novas, my mates got one with a 1600gte engine fully lightned and ballanced, fast road cam and motor bike carbs. got an astra coupe bonnet, astra coupe front lights, and wide arch kit on it. hes had it since he was 17 when he bought it standard, hes now 27!!

seems to be still running for now lol u going to gdi for your gearbox iain? ;)

boaby

you report it to the police mate? surely they can get hold of the cctv and do something about it (lazy b******s probably wont bother right enough.)

saw the blue 182 with coilovers cams etc think the guys on here or atleast been on here, has a gdi sticker on the bumper. black 182 with fancy text reg plate on it, looked a bit weird lol white 1.2 with some "different" body styling yellow 1.2 also with "different" body styling some gay...

yep john back to my dynamique wheels with 4 new Eagle F1 GSD3's 195/45/15 turinis i sold for £200 due to shite tyres (ok tread but shite grip lol) and them not being in the best nick due to a previous owner or someone refubing them quite cheap. still look good tho and a bargain. sold to...

turinis are sold, just waiting on my wheel spacers coming to get my 15s back on. so heres 1 last pic to wave good buy to them!! look good just dont like 16s!

on the 1.2 16v (i assume thats what you have going by your profile) you simply unbolt the 2 bolts holding the airbox on, lift it off and replace the standard paper air filter with the new panel filter, easy only takes 2 minutes.

my mates is a 53 plate and has all the ph3 parts apart from the engine, must have been using up engines to start with.

i like first because it makes my car fast, anything over 30mph and its slow lol

different front bumper 15" version of the Mk2 172 alloys colourcoded rear spoiler different dials with digital screen for fuel and temp guages new engine (different inlet manifold, ecu, throttle body) (bit quicker, more torque, less responsive) also has a different cat (doesnt have a flexi to...

1.4 and 1.6 are basically the same engine (apart from the obvious difference lol) so generally any reliability issues or common faults are the same on both cars, so if your thinking about a 1.4 16v i wouldnt bother, just go for the 1.6 16v. it may only seem like 10bhp difference but the extra...

that guide makes it sound so easy lol, which it is when everythings fine and not seized. first one i done was a 106 and was fine, last week i done a saxo, NEVER AGAIN lol

mine snapped last month, was no piston damage just bent valves. i payed £200 for another 1.2 16v engine with 50k on the clock (compaired to mine with 140k lol) belt snapped wednesday, i took engine out other car on the thursday night, mine out friday night and new one in on the satarday.

after driving my mum standard 1.2 dynamique tonight i realised that... its faster than mine (my new engine is pish compaired to old one,wish i hadnt blew it up) my exhausts going to make me go deaf by the time im 21 my dampers are set too hard the 16s tramline like f**k (still waiting on wheel...

initial has higher spec but not the looks. dynamique is from the sport range, comes with the sports seats, 15" wheels, spoiler, front fogs, trip computer etc etc good little cars, handle well standard, lack power but for your average person they are fine.

common problem just wiggle the wires under the passengers seat as brian said

its not half done its fully converted apart from the annoying auto wipers that cant be turned off, isnt that a good thing? if i wanted i could change my paper work to dynamique but that doesnt bother me, i didnt do it so i could sell it as a dynamique i done it because i liked the looks. my...

ok guys tried one of my other steering wheel light stalks/switches and same problem and i know that one works so its not that. its a pioneer 5 channel amp, cant remember the power output but i think the sub channel is 150watts RMS (amp says 1000watts max power but i dont beleive in this max...
