not really m8 cause he is fitting a 172 engine to the 1.2 as a street sleeper!! he is a mechanic so wil b fitting it all himself. just wanted to know how much the CUP suspension is worth with only 20,000 miles on them.?:rasp: ??????

cheers, foxon

he will need new hubs etc

I paid £100 for 4 springs and dampers of a cup that had done 4k at the time of removal.

I think I had a good deal.

I'd say 100-150 for yours.

was gonna say, wont he need the axle/hubs and all that gubbins too, due to the wider track of the cup over a standard clio.

im not a mechanical type and im sure sum1 will correct me if im wrong, but i dont think it'll all just bolt on mate.

Nope its not bolt on its different hub bolt spacing and hole's used. It can be bodged if you want.

teh bodge = teh gay.

thanx 4 the advice but he has already got 172 rear hubs and disks cause i had a new rear axel on me cup so he had al the bits off that.

fink 150 sounds about right.
cheers, foxon
