possibly!! i hope!!! LOL

na it'll be fine for that

you'll struggle

there is a 110page manual on fault finding on the 1.2 16v engine, could be anything!!

na, just try and clean the disc pads and caliper

i'd take the wheel off and check/clean EVERYTHING before even thinking about driving it

just check no grease is on the disc or the pads (likley)

easy solution, buy a second hand CAT and smash the internals out of it! (thats what i do!)

how will they KNOW its been decatted??? you can just claim "oh the cat muct be knackered, i'll get it changed ASAP officer" they won't physically crawl under the car

i love the mikey!!! can we do a sticker swap mikey???

yep, thats the little queen in the background

mat, do you know if there is a difference between the bell housings on the JB3's and the JC5's??? i need a JC5 bell housing, but if the JB3 is identical then i'll buy a cheapo JB3 and strip it

nope, its known as a rectificaion notice what if say your CAT was knackered and you were stopped by VOSA?? they wouldn't fine you on the spot, they'd issue you a rectification notice plus VOSA won't stop any car under 3 years old

plant a tree if you're worried about it, f**k the law!

no i had no idea it was shagged, i bought the engines years ago, they were early test engines form 2000/2001, luck of the draw that one of them was fucked!! both engines are non VVT 165bhp vel satis/megane sport engines, but have a few trick development parts on them (pistons for example) i'm...

i'll keep at it and take some decent pics of the rebuild

;)

changing a few bits and bobs then bolting it into the clio

most tyre places i know will say the tyre is scrap after using the foam, i'm not sure if the tyre can be reused or not

yeah tell me about it!! those engines have done a UK tour over the past 2-3years, and i've only just stripped them!!! LOL oh well!!

not the best pics, but you get the idea!!! now to the rebuild!!! :)

What a day!!! stripped down both of my F4R turbo engines earlier, why both i hear you ask?? Well after removing the head on the first engine (F4R767) i found this yup, 1 fucked piston, it had taken the block with it too :( (lucky there was no other damage to any other parts, and i happen to...

Maz's car is as quick as all the ones i've driven

are you on crack???? the fly figure is the inaccurate one!!!

LOL

superchips can "chip" the 1.2 16V's

i'd check you front pads before topping it up

if its a 172, then you'll be needing the cam locking tools when putting it back together
