I was talking to the bloke thats helping me do this and he thought how the hell do you fit a 1.8t VAG lump?
How do you and any pics of it been done?
Basically thought about this ages ago and thought it shouldn't be too hard, plus can look standard too if ya get me?!
Didn't realise they...
Fiat have actually just bought out another 1.4 Turbo :) But only has 120bhp as standard!
They can push a lot with a few mods. I don't know exactly what mine is as not been rolling roaded but;
130 - Standard
+ 30 - Superchip
+ 7-10 - exhaust and filter (felt rapid once exhaust was done!)...
Thought of this project a year or so back, then cam on here two days after I started and saw someone had done it!
Anyway, Its a K Reg Valver shell with rust galore, Engine wasn't working had willy wheels and got it for £250! Not bad in my opinion!
Currently the engine is fixed into...
Its a Punto GT.
Not very big spec, but quite quick!
Superchips chip
Cat Back Powerflow (maybe de-catted saturday)
Crappy air filter
Running around 1.2 bar
Pics of it cleaned on Sunday, :D :D Only wash, chamois and polish!
Pictures of my project clio in Clio section...
Just send all files you want to write to your Burner drive then open burner drive up and click the write these files to cd wizard thingy then choose data cd, job done!
Just picked up an old valver on £250, engine runs but as soon as the bottom, bigger, butterfly valve is opened the engine is really loud and just has no power what so ever.
Timing is all correct with the TDC etc
Compression is about 80 on all pistons.
Any ideas?
Thought of this conversion just over a year ago and finally got round to it couple weeks ago!
I have a 1.2 Prima in the garage at the moment with half the engine ripped off!
Originally putting it in a Valver shell but am waiting for the right one!
The car I have at the moment is...
old one is the white phase 3, new one is the valver, love low cars wit no kits!
LOL my car is full of yellow pages in that one!
Hope all these are of some help!
what is the differnece between the suspension on a 16v clio and the standard. i have the chance to have 16v coilovers fitted but cant becuase its a standard clio. what is the actual difference, i thought they were just stronger becuase of the weight of the eninge, so surely it wouldnt be bad...
dont lacquer it it will turn them a brown yellowy coulour in some places especially if your doing htem white, u also wanna use the white plastic primer and juist tcut them 24hours afte youve painted them
