If these are from the new line of nankang offerings, there are some positive reviews on them. I would say nankangs of old were ditchfinders the newer ones seem to be better.
Reasoning behind it is, i have one available (donor car). Second reason is, i want forced induction without doing a 2-3k f4r low pressure turbo bodge. I have in the past worked with the engine (years ago mind) and know them to be good for 200hp without much work. The electrics don't scare me i...
Okay i feel going the 172 setup would be worth while, assuming f4r in the 172 is an all alloy engine and the b18ft is likely cast bottom end at least, can i assume safely i am going to have to find the weight difference over the front wheels and take some advice on the suspension? The usual stay...
Hi Guys,
I intend to run a base model mk2 p1 clio with the b18ft volvo engine. Reasons behind it are i have a donor car available with the engine, and finding a clean mk2 is easier than finding a clean mk1.
Problem is as i understand it 172 suspension wont fit without some large faffing...
Not 100% sure yet mick, Picking it up on saturday, i was under the impression it would have been bonded, however it may have been drilled, or possibly both. Any bits you have lying about that may help me return this to standard drop me a pm about, Come saturday ill be in a better position to say...
Thanfully it comes with standard mirrors to replace the m3 shite, the spoiler is an easy reversal,however the bonnet vent may be hard work, the guy reckons bodywise its immaculate, only issue is its been repainted, hoping he knows the exact paint so i can match it for a new bonnet if needs be...

All sorted now, ive sorted a clean R19 cab for conversion, £275 notes, recently painted with clean arches/sills. Its been barry boyed a tad but easily back to standard... Lucky me hurrah :O)
In fairness, im not actualy looking for a 16v shell/valver... i would take any clio/19 that was clean, bare shell or otherwise, I can understand that many our crushed etc, however i havent been on the renault scene in some time. I really would have thought £500 would get me a clean shell/car to...
Hi guys, basicaly i cant find a good enough clio/19 shell for a transplant. In fairness i pretty much despise the mk2 shape, however for the sake of having a clean/rust free shell for a project i am pretty much forced into it. Clean shells can be had for £250-£500. Unless someone on here has a...
Shame we didnt video after the meet Ty lol... that'd have made some viewing, my pathetic whine to "dial it in slightly" towards the end would have been funny!
Was a fantastic day again. Shame i was only a passenger, but seemed well put together and thought out, was lucky not to get lost :)
Hilights for the day for me, where the sheer number of cars firstly, for a regional it was fantastic.
