the 16v spoiler - colour coded deffo needs to be lowered :p

cosmetically, just a slight lowering :) i do, however, have to change the manifold and engine mounts. they will be done next month, when equipment is free :)

finally got round to taking some pics of my mk1 ph1 1.8 RT (you can see i was also caught out by the thousands of nats around :() only mods are 16v mirrors, 16v spoiler and some turbines. resprayed both bumpers myself (originally had the non-colour coded ones on :o) last thing i suppose...

Was next to you at tescos getting petrol... very nice... :cool:

very nice, love that engine note

Looking at getting some turbines for my mk1. question is, what can i do with the old steel wheels? are they worth anything if i sell them/is there demand? dont really want 4x 14" wheels in my shed :)

just picked up my replacement bumper (£25 for bumper/fogs/splitter :D) and am in the middle of spraying it. now, i've masked off the rubber strip (splitter thingy) at the bottom and the bump strips, but looking at it... should I spray the splitter as well? Car is quite a light colour (as you...

those manifolds on ebay, are for the williams. will they fit mine? :p

its only the 8v rt :( in the process of getting hold of my mate, who should have a sling to lift the engine and put new mounts on :) will have a look at ebay now; see how much manifolds are going for

what sort of price will i be looking at?

Just been in to kwik-fit in an attempt to find the problem of my exhaust blowing. they said that the manifold was loose or something and that my engine mounts have gone (which probably caused the manifold to go) does this sound likely? Where can I get engine mounts/manifold done and what sort...

I'm taking those with a pinch of salt. home is a C; uni is a B Uni would cost me about £150 more!

Well, a few months ago I got my new key, so I now have RCL :) however the alarm wasnt activating, so i looked in the engine bay, found the alarm and noticed I have to put a key in and turn it to 'on' however the key wont go in. its as if the alarm has been keyed :( is there anthing I can do...

Saw a 2.0 16v Clio (mk2 - not sure of the exact model) outside john lewis at about midday. should have stopped to take a pic :)

i was told that the heart monitor like light is for the ecu, and if its on its a bad thing!

air filter is new (well, 5 months now) as is the rad/fan heater is broke :( radweld = blocked heater matrix. normally the temp guage is fine, getting up to about half, sometimes 3/4 when the coolant is getting low. was just wondering if the whole choke thing sounded reasonable.

Think this is the right sub forum to post in :) I came back from uni today ~ 220 miles. i sat at about 75-80mph most of the way (few sections of roadworks). however, this took an entire tank of petrol! the light came on just as i got home! normally it takes just over half. Before i left, i...

according to my haynes manual the d and e-type engines have 60bhp.

ive got abs on my mk1 ph1. ive never had it kick in before, but yeh, the brakes are a little vague :( (disks all round though!)

i bought a '91 1.8rt for £300 :) im not bothered about 5 doors and i think the phase 1/2s look better than the 3s. but thats a stupid thing to say as its all personal preference. mine had 93500 on the clock. mine is completely standard and had all the electrics working. i have since broken the...
