jon's next project

[16v_jon]

Now the 2litre extreme has been finnished and working well for a year its time to think about the next project.
I think it may be another clio but im looking for some ideas!

I have a mk2 phase 1 in white that i was going to convert to an MRS engine but i have kinda put that on the back boiler, im thinking maybe a 2litre derv from the new megane? 6 speed box etc etc

Or maybe a track only RS fully stripped with all the trimmings?

Would be looking to spend 5-10 grand and do all the work myself

Or

Should i just buy the vauxhall monaro ive been promising myself

thanks for any input !

Make yours into the track car and get the Monaro!

 

[SteveC047]

Sod the Monaro get hold of one of those Holdon Pickups with the same lump in them as the Monaro, now that would be cool.

Failing that get hold of a Twingo and chuck a 225 meggy lump into the back. LOL

I'd love to see a quick devr done maybe even with the 1.5 engine but the cost of the bits is above what you'd be looking at injecotrs would be £1.5k for a start. Then gearboxes arn't winners. What about a 1.9 VAG TDI engine 200hp is easy out of them with a remap on the 150's realy plus the gearbox is strong.

For that price since you've got a day to day car and if you live with the car then a track spec 172 engined Clio would be superb however spraying a normal one would probably be cheaper.

What about a kit car they'd be quicker for the same engine better still a stock dci etc engine would make for a cheap economical one with a nice power curve.

Monaro.

 

[edde]

Forget the Monaro thats the popular easy option.

How about the white Mk2 sheel being totally gutted down to the last gram space framed and track speced?

 

[Chris n nic]

IMO I think you should track the clio m8... and buy something nice for daily use.....

[Graham Gooch]

forget the monaro, get the maloo

if it has to be a monaro make sure it has a holden badge not a vauxhall one LOL

 

[tommyboy]

Monaro all the way I would if I had the opportunity...
