what is the concise list for the swap chip, am I right in thinking its - hubs - wishbones/ball joints - driveshafts - full brakes so discs, carriers,calipers and pads (and flexis) - front struts (can use Williams but need to machine hubs down to fit and shim the bolt holes to fit smaller...

I think chip wants you to do a mk2 suspension swap chap ;) I've detected a couple of very subtle hints nodding to that end in this thread.... lol!

its even better in the metal, a sublime example :)

wounding mate, hope you can get it sorted, as people have mentioned its all down to how economically repairable the quarter is, rest of the bits should be easy enough to source/paint if needed but if that doorpin has pulled the inside of the door shut out of shape too, could mount up in price...

ai sounds like pedal ratchet assembly, can still get them new from renault i believe, not too expensive :)

welcome over Craig chap

the phase 2 valver seats are however peerless for comfort, theres nothing else I've ever sat in that's come close, including the obvious Jag etc route, they are sublime for me! sniff, miss them soooooo much! :( whats up with your pedal chap?

and again I agree, although my Williams' made great daily's I still don't think i'd have one again now, but primarily that was as they were better looked after/maintained than the valvers simply due to clientele/owners.

I think the ITB project just ground Ronee down over the years mate, a lot of time/money/love/effort she put into that car and I don't think she ever got the joy out of it she expected perhaps, enough to put you off really. think her and Gaz still have a naples mk 1 as a runabout however, so she...

ai, i'm not a mega poster and never have been, so never really a valuable asset to any forum I visit! as such I just sort of float about looking for useful information in whatever area I can find it, currently most of what I need/use is on here or RTOC, it used to be WC and C16v. round and round...

the turbs look excellent imo on twin phase 1 :)

agreed, C16V was a great place a few years back and I have made a lot of friends through it, but basically I was a source of info on there, not collecting it. and its been going through a rough patch recently after the mess that the old owner left the admin team in and still has essentially, so...

cheer Luke, I am tempted to pop the turinis on the tubby for a while but they are ultimately destined for the RB :)

ai, the one you got banned from for being too old and grumpy wasn't it chap ;)

couple more chap to get you going ;) nowt like an excuse for a mk1 ***** session! weird one :) although new possibles for the mk1...

the hi power silver is too much imo, a nice subtle silver will look brilliant on the standard naples :) Luke......I have a bare set of Williams wheels with caps waiting to go Subaru grey for the new motor........if they don't look right on a 182 I will be selling them. but this will be in a...

see if you can see this link chap, standard cap colour I'm fairly sure http://williamsclio.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?11686-Clio-16v-1-8-1995-(N)-104K-only-4-owners-from-new

nothing of nothing now though chap if your going to rock the Williams wheels :) i'd normally rock grey or similar for wheel colour choice, but with the car being so clean and o/e I reckon standard silver would set it all off lovely with the subtle o/e+ look. looking forward to seeing it on...

don't use blummin waxoyl if you plan to work on the car yourself in the future, I spend my life covered in the stuff now as its all over the underside of the car! lol!

they were very slightly darker I think, although perhaps that's placebo and the fact you never see them un-refurbished anymore, but they weren't as dark as the ones on drivers side of yours, passenger side is more like it from the pics, they look about right. however, looking at it it seems...

Re: Black Clio 172 driven by a gorgeous girl ;) East Lancs rd, Worsley 730 this morni shocking isn't it, blokes in cars looking at women, none of us ever do that ;)

stunning, and after seeing Paul's (Harpham) on the weekend I can say my sunflower love is strong :)

looks spot on chap :)

doesn't work on my android phone, says it requires flash, links to install, already installed. it only does this for photobucket videos, loads of other sites I use use flash on the xperia, and all are fine, darn photobucket!lol!

looks spot on :)

i may well rip off the engine cover idea if thats okay Gaz? it looks simply stunning, i plan for anthracite p/coated inlet and guard etc then RB cover :)

lovely chap, just sort the mix matched centre caps and get them all o/e silver and your done my mk1 is a little bit rusty, but its not bad, theres more rust on my 172 tbh

arg, HDR hurts my eyes! ;) car looks lovely though mate, credit to you for keeping it so clean :)

no worries, i bought them ;) shame its got to go James chap, but onwards and upwards and all that!

that was my commute, I love where I live! :)
