Its only got stadard airbox on, not a bad sound for that!

Thanks Guys!
One of my jobs "to do" is to respray that panel black. They get so sad looking at 12 years old!
Im split between wether or not I should do the wide track conversion this month when I get paid or wether or not I should get the front part of the maxi rally kit cos Im giving the...
This is my first real set of photos since I bought the car at the beginning on April. I was having so much fun on the South Yorkshire meet yesterday that I forgot to take some!!
So here she is after a wash, nothing more, nothing less...
Thanks For Looking...
They obviously thought the diff had a manufacturer fault and did it to keep him sweet. Me personally, i would have got an independant examination from a garage, taken it to them and got them to pay for the lot!!
Warranty or not, diffs shouldnt just explode, surely.
Mike
What about the coil??
Have you checked if there is a feed going thru to the coil all of the time.
If your coilpack is temperamental, this may cause a lack of spark?
When there was no feed going to my coil the engine turned over but wudnt start. Also, when you try to start it, can you hear...
My willy Hybrid changes at 110 in 4th with the willy gearbox??
Are the ratios on the valver gearbox slightly higher??
How come you decided to keep the valver gearbox anyway jay?? Ill be seeing you at santa pod.
Mike
I was just wondering what the best course of action was?
Both of them have come with runners attached to the seats and both with subframes, one of which is bent.
Would i be better off getting a 2nd hand subframe (part that attaches seat and runners to the floor) or just using clio MK1 runners...
And Ive taken some pics of my car, showing slight progress and good quality pics for the first time of my engine after the work its had done.
P.S. I know I desperately need a new rear spoiler!!
Enjoy :
Thanks For Looking & I Hope You...
It is standard spec yeah, got a decat, scorpion exhaust and a green cotton filter but thats about as non-standard as it gets.
I just wanna run the car in a save a bit more than i can look at upgrading the cams, pulleys,pistons etc etc....eventually want TB's too, aiming for 200BHP mark. At...
Well I havent wide tracked it yet cos I cant afford it.
Im going to wide track it and get a decent set of coilovers on it all at once, dont wanna do it in dribs and drabs.
Its a full Williams engine, bottom end and head.
Mike :)
Hey guys...
Especially for you Yorkshire lot, but anyone whose interested, here are pics of my almost completed rebuild/conversion.
It was originally a 1.8 16V, now a 2.0 Williams Hybrid, fully rebuilt, cleaned and painted.
Enjoy :)

Thanks For...
The sales people on the other end of the phone arent the people that examine your car if you make a claim.
You are flushing money down the toilet if you tell them youve got a power increase cos of your exhuast (even though its from the decat).
Reason being is cos if an insurance claims...
De-cat as in removing the catalitic converter?
I wondered tell youre insurer lol, its illegal to do that if your car is fitted with a cat as standard.
Your car will more than likely fail emissions testing at an MOT station and if you get stopped by VOSA at the roadside with at a mobile testing...
Thats necessarily the case! Thats a fob-off reason that people like me who work for insurance companies give (only kiddin heehee)
If last year was the first year you had with your company, the chances are they have given you a very large percentage discount from the standard price which has...
Oooohhhh believe me it was fun!!
Love the rallying!! Safe to say my steering got just a tad light when i was coming thru that river lol!
Cant wait for the next one, cracking pics all around!
Mike
LOL...
I would love to argue about Swinton against Adrian Flux, but I wont, cos Im about to insure with Adrian Flux lol, cant be having you guys loading my premium cos you dont like me! ;)
P.S. Mike, thanks for the owners club member discount. Very Cool.
Mike
Great News....
In Addition to the Insurance Deal, I can also discount our Breakdown Cover which is with Axa Assistance.
UK RECOVERY is just £60 for a car ages under 11 years.
If you want homestart included, thats an extra £25, and if your car is aged over 11 years, thats an extra £15...
And just to let you, if your car is modified, dont bother lol...
Try people like Adrian Flux. I managed to get my insurance covered with them for £590 with all modifications covered with just 1 year NCD.
Alloys or 1 modification is usually ok. But if you modified it to the bollox then there...
Well Guys, I just thought I'd let you all know, even thought Ive only been a live member for a couple of weeks, that I work for Swinton Insurance.
If anyone is wanting an insurance quote I am personally looking to give discounts to cliosport members. Its upto 10% and possibly 15% for under...
Hi Guys...
Ive just bought some lockwood dials on ebay for £12 English Pounds - Cha-Ching! Good deal one would have thought
However, I didnt notice the big sign on the Ad that said, "doesnt fit standard SAGEM dials on Clio 16v" - Great! I happen to have the SAGEM dials in at the moment.
So...
Seriously, 133 with ease. If my speedo was out, it was minimal. I had 195/45/15's on the rsi. It was a terrific engine and I was surprised myself.
So is there any way for me to "break her in" so to speak?
The engine came from another shell and has only done 80,000 miles, Im definetly sure I...
