Time for a turbo to liven it up mate. Just got mine back on its wheels today. Powdercoated the beam and all the rear End looks nice and fresh now. Whole cars either powdered or painted now. Was Meant to be a daily.

I didn't bend mine I shortened the rod to the box. Worked fine on mine.

Ok thanks for the help I'll get some ordered.

Thanks I'll order some up tomorow I think. Hopefully I won't damage the nice shiney beam. Don't think I'll fit my arb back on as I'm sure that will chip the powder off now.

Ok thanks. I'm only thinking they are a few years old in their now although not done many miles I only took it off so I could get it all powdercoated so it looks fresh. Do the powerflex ones need pressing in or is it just std ones that do. It's only a road car so not really doing it for...

Hello . Do the original bushes on the rear beam need pressing out. I've had the beam Powdercoaters but covered the bushes so are ok but wondered if worth changing for powerflex ones.

Thing is you never see back what you spend on these things I enjoy doing it. I've not had any problems since I put the turbo stuff on it uses no oil ect. Just can't help wanting more out of it and I've got all the new bits for the spare engine so may as well build it all and drop it in. It's...

63k. Hardly gets used I've replaced pretty much everything on it drives like a new car. Goes so much better with the little turbo on too. Id not want one without a little boost now they feel so slow.

Your old ones been out for a little drive today and is still pretty mint . Defo worth turboing a nice one. Starting putting together it's new engine soon forged bottom end and supertech valves ect.

Thanks mate I've not got to get under it again today to find out for myself. Thanks again Jay

Hello. Can anyone tell me if the gearbox side cv boot on the passenger side is meant to turn with the shaft or stay still and the shaft turns inside. Only had a few minutes to check earlier but pretty sure the rubber didn't turn when I spun the wheel. ? Anyone have any advice. Thanks

Do the extra bits they sell on the pms site not quieten this noise then . I really fancy one I don't mind a bit of noise but don't want it cheap rattly sounding .

I didn't even know they did one for the scenic shifter but guessing it's the same as the Clio one.

Yea mines normal bushes inside its not too bad really only I have a civic type r as my everyday car and it makes the clios gear shift feel really crap. Mite just get a pms one I think

Can you get the stiff shift kit without the stick as I have the scenic stick fitted but it is sloppy compared to the original one. I'd have a pms one but don't want it vibrating all the time. Thanks

That looks awesome.

the blue one still here but on turinis. Still fancy some 2118s tho after seeing these again.

Can I be added please.

Had a gripper in my old cossie and you could hear it slipping on tight turns. Didn't meet to thrash it but unsure what it will be like to test in fwd.

The only problem with specialists is the time that they take to deliver the parts . I was told 2 weeks for a boost pipe kit and waited 4 months. Told every so often they had been sent. I think 4 times they got lost in the post and then sent to the wrong address. In the end I said if my card...

I've got a spare fitting that screws into the block once drilled and tapped but the feed I got with the turbo. Had to change a few of the fittings but had spares from old cars ect. If you know the sizes ect you can order all the parts seperately from places like think automotive .

I took the sump off and drilled the flat on the back of the block just copied what others had put in project threads ect. Was very easy to do the whole job I think if you get a base map on the new ecu it should run well enough to get it to where ever it needs to for a proper map.

Fitting the bits for the low boost conversion is real easy it's only bolting bits on. Couple of fiddly bits but nothing hard. I think it could easily be done in a few days if you have all the parts ready to go. I guess the worst part is removing the sump for when you drill the block for the...

Mines low boost at the minute but has been very reliable other than an old sensor playing up not had any problems. Definatly goes so much better now it always felt too slow before. Could easily use it every day if I needed to .

I bet it will be awesome. i think it's gotta be better doing the conversion to a nice car rather than a shitter like some I've seen. Mines low boost but can't really complain of things going wrong either .

You can flare them yourself have a look on YouTube theirs loads of ways. Not as neat as ones you buy ready done but it works I tried it on my old set of pipes. One way on their was filing a tooth off some wire crimps and clamping all the way round the end of the pipe it creates the lip.

Some of the low boost ones I've seen for sale are battered things with massive miles. they can't all be worth 5k surely a real nice one low miles Is going to be worth more.

As above I did say hello mate but only saw the car at the last minute

Ok thanks I'll be in touch on their ice only posted a few times on their so far

Thanks for the help mate Be good to have a chat some time so I can work a few things out but I'm hoping to have dan potter sort it for me just trying to get a day to fit in with him as my shift is a pain working away on a rolling 4 .
