My Valver Pics

[Greeny.]

Hi!

First pics ive taken of my valver since owning it for 2 months! Quite bad a I know but they came out ok

Car is basicly standard at the moment. Since owning it, its had Silkolene 5W-40 oil, ITG panel filter, Dizzy, Top mounts, Cam/Aux belt, Roter Arm and NGK plugs. Got Bass's old magnex system and bought my own de-cat for it, would like a bit more pop and crackle on overrun tho.

Next on my list is 2 clear front fogs, 4 new yokos in 195/50, R19 gearbox mount and to flush out the cooling system and clean my header tank!!! Feb time im hoping to fit my Avo 25mm springs onto some nice new Koni shocks. Not bothered about the height to much just want a more firm ride.

Dan.

Mint!

 

[JayR]

Wow, thats a beutay mate, looks like you got a right gooden there!!!

 

[Harry182]

Has it really only done 38K or is it 88???

 

[Greeny.]

30k infact! An old couple had it for 14 years before trading it in for a new clio. was then sold to the guy I bought it off. I did pay over the odds for it, but its great

Didnt come with shed loads of history, but I did have a word with the Renault garage it came from and the miles add up to what they have on their system. It had only done 9000 miles in 1997 when it went in to Renault for some warrenty arch rust work.

I wanna keep it looking preety much original minus performance and subtle styling mods

Very nice mate, personally due to it being so unique i would keep it standard and keep it for concours/show n shine comps.

 

[Matteh]

my turbines are going back on mine in a few days and i only wish mine would look that good!

oh, and keep the yellow fogs!

unfort the last owner looks like they polished it with a wirebrush there are some obvious swirl marks

 

[Nafoff]

a pc should sort that out mate, mine was a bit like that last year but come up a treat for the show season this year

 

[Rich]

Very nice example - look after it, I would love a low mileage Valver to cherish.

 

[C8DGY]

very nice example of a fine motor!! I agree with most of the others i'd keep it standard!!

 

[Greeny.]

Was thinking the 25mm isnt really going to be that noticable and i want 20mm at the rear. I really just need to stiffen it up. Feels like the wingmirrors are gunna touch the ground cornering hard!

Do you think i should remove the exhaust then?

Im only going to go for subtle stuff anyway, ive always thought half decent cars will always look nice with minimal things done to them. Im more into the performance mods. Might be looking at cams late next year.

 

[BREMBO]

Looks as if it is showroom condition.

 

[John185k]

keep it standard, pleaseeeeeee

 

[steve740]

Looks mint mate. good purchase!

 

[TomS]

Lovely to see

 

[klmillard]

stunning, please please dont mod it. keep it just the way it is.

 

[Greeny.]

keep it standard, pleaseeeeeee

25mm wont be hardly noticeable! and the exhuast is only to gain a little more performance Surely they are ok?

 

[philmots]

Will be worth more std in the long run surely?

 

[bmh.01]

keep it standard, pleaseeeeeee

At the end of the day its your car and you can do what you want with it. I most likely wouldn't keep it standard either, a cars to be used not kept in a plastic bubble.

 

[Greeny.]

Same with anycar. A performance exhaust i can change back with the standard one i have in storage. The current shocks/springs are like 14 years old, i was looking at the Bilstein OE shocks which are slightly stiffer than standard and like i said before, 25mm is hardly noticeable! Im not changing anything major, i still have the standard Renault tape player which i can change back when i do sell it

im not going to majorly mod it, im gunna order 2 new yellow fogs now infact

 

[GarethM]

awesome fella
keep it standard

 

[AveitAndy]

If you want to loose the body roll, uprate the bushes. Should stiffen things up a bit.

Stunning motor, dont bother with cams. F7R

 

[Justin]

Mint mate

 

[Ali]

WOW!!!!!!! And i don't say that very offen!

 

[cat171]

Really clean valver you have there:approve:

 

[JayR]

Dont listen to this lot mate.

The only thing i wouldnt touch (and you aint either by what you've said) is the way it looks. Enjoy the car mate rather than thinking about what its gonna be worth at selling time.

Most people would rather buy it with a few tweaks anyway.

 

[Greeny.]

thanks alot for all the comments

Might well chip the ECU as well.

As long as I own the car it will always have a standard look on the inside and out, there isnt any harm in uprating a few old and worn out parts.

Will hopefully see you all at a few meets. Just need to get the PC out now!
