i couldnt beleive how light the bonnet was when i lifted seans, i expected it to be slightly lighter but always wondered how you could tell if you had one or not untill i tried to open his i nearly put it thru the windscreen lol
ive got a mate that would probably do it much cheaper than any garage if you want mate (the guy whos doing my gearbox the now) give us a txt if you fancy it
woops sorry im getting confused with the guy who said taking out his spare wheel allowed him to beat a corsa lol
take any small engined car and pull away at 5mph in 2nd and it will judder, its because it lacks torque and no exhaust or air filter will sort that.
really really not worth it, if you want to spend a couple of grand you can get power increases, stick a set of motorbike carbs on it but for the money its not worth it.
s**t hot suspension, upgraded brakes, powerflex suspension and ARB bushes, front strut brace, strip everything out it and it...
60mm and not low enough looking to go 80-100mm next not to bothered about going lower would be nice as long as it still handles the same or even better!
i was in binns clio lowered 40mm on just apex springs and it felt standard to me compaired to my -60mm apex kit, had a lot less body roll...
i had to hacksaw my old 1 off lol ^^
car looks good, nice choice in wheels although the car looks too silver if you know what i mean, needs the black bump strips to brake it up a bit
whats everyones opinion on these new ph4 front ends they're using on the new campus sport models, also has a different back bumper but i didnt get a pic.
think it looks a bit gay, fronts not bad but rear isnt nice, reg plate is on back bumper and has smoothed boot!
hope the engines bassed on the D4F 16v engine so you can use the bits to build a turbo clio cheaply.
cool wee car tho as long as its as light or lighter than a mk2 clio id have one, full exhaust, decat, cam, remap etc it would fly lol
build a monster of a valver engine with lightened and ballanced megane bottom end cams etc maby even throttle bodys if you can afford it!!
172 lump would be much harder id have thought since i assume valver engine will go straight in?!
transplants woth the money if your cars not worth much and uve spent a lot on it and know what your doing to do all the work or most of it yourself.
if you shop about i bet you could get a 16v insured for less than a grand, and it will be worth it for the extra power
eco-tek valves are shite, make funny noises and make no difference.
of the shelf chip isnt brilliant, do all your mods then get a proper remap on a rolling road or live mapped on the road, much much better
also a K&N open filter will just suck in hot air and loose you power, you want a...
mine had it really bad before i passed my test last year when it only got used by my dad to get to work 5 minz away every day its fine now, take it a thrash down a backroad or the motorway or something and it will be fine
sounds like a bearing, £20 or so from GSF car parts each and £5/£10 per side for a garage to press them, free if you know anyone with a garage lol
on a 1.2 16v with drums on the rear you pop the centre cap bit off the drum, undo the bolt, pull the hub off and take it to a garage, have it...
