Odyssee Ph2 1.6

[JLister]

May aswell start a thread now my clio is starting to come along , I did have a 1.6 clio last year but this is what ended up happening to it:

Yeah urm...dont ask!

But anyway couldn't let go of the clio's so bought another 1.6 mk2 ph2, but this time in odyssee blue (which was the colour i originally wanted before the black clio)

So here is the pic of the odyssee After its 1st wash (sorry for bad quality):

Then next thing was to get it on new wheels and coilovers. So ordered some Cades Eros Gold alloy wheels,

2 days later found them when i got back from work

Then it was time to get them fitted and also ordered some TA Technix coilovers, got them fitted and lowered it 110 just to see how it would look:

Bit too low for me as i do like to drive my car aswell as like it to look nice, so then raised it back up to 85mm, now its the perfect height to look nice and still be practical. So here's some pics of how it looks now

Few more things to come:

-RS Grill
-Ph2 172 Rear Bumper
-Colour Coding
-Sport interior
-Anything else that pops into my head

Thanks for reading

Looks really nice mate! But iv gotta ask how did it happen to the black one?!

 

[Joss.]

Looks really good mate! shame about the other one! nice upgrade though!

Cheers guys much appreciated. Basically the crash happened by me driving like an idiot on a road i thought i knew, turns out i didn't know it because there seemed to be an extra corner that jumped out at me lol. But oh well we all make mistakes, and we learn from them. Everyone has a car crash sometime in their life and hopefully that was my only one.

whats the ride and handling like on the technix coilovers? looking to get myself a set for my 1.6 but debating whether to save a little longer and go for the v maxx set.

Like the stance, will look good when it's colour coded

Ride is very harsh, but the handling is one hell of alot better now with them on, but i've never been in a clio on v maxx so wouldn't be able to compare the differences :/ but the TA Technix are very good for the price.

 

[youngstig]

to be honest i dont think the ride is going to be that comfortable either way, im not particularily fussed tbh my last lowered clio was harsh but i soon got used to it. cheers for the info.

Theyre 16". It's the perfect size IMO, nice stance on it but no scraping and it's lowered 85mm. With 15" you would have to lower it even more for the wheels to sit nicely in the arch but guaranteed the front splitter would scrape.

Never seen an aerial like that?
Looks good, needs colour coding!

 

[JLister]

It is a bit big lol but I swear it's standard. Yeah I know that will soon hopefully

 

[GeorgeH]

Thats fantastic mate. Really nice and a tad different. And because of the style of the wheels they dont look to big. I think 15's would be to small.

Youve got me looking at them cades now!

Colour code next?

Thanks yeah the 16's sit perfectly, and go for it they're stupidly cheap, cost me £533 brand new for the full set inc. Yokohama s drive fitted on delivery.

And yes the colour coding I'd definitely coming next.

[Tez.]

All of your planned mods and a cup spoiler and that's all it needs mate

 

[Bradderz93]

Love this!
and love the ideas!:approve:

 

[Joss.]

Puts my odessey to shame tbh, nice work!

 

[JakeJ]

looks awesome. i have F1s atm and they look to small i think

 

[JLister]

Thanks everyone, yeah agreed I think a cup spoiler will finish it off nicely after all my other plans.

 

[valerio]

fabolous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is the same colour of mine !!!!!

 

[JLister]

Not an update to the car but thought i would show a recent pics

 

[boomerbang2006]

Unless you have had a respray its monaco blue for the ph2.

 

[JLister]

It's monaco blue for the 1*2, non sports still come in odyssey

 

[boomerbang2006]

Ok,my bad...apologies.

 

[Scrooge]

The best colour IMO.

 

[boomerbang2006]

Agreed.....on a 172 ph1 though surely...

 

[JLister]

Ok,my bad...apologies.

No worries mate lol

Monday this needs cleaning and more pics again

[JLister]

The project how now come to an end am selling the car as ive just bought an inferno 182. So took a few last pics before she goes.

And here's a pic of the new one
Will started on a project thread for this once i start making work on it.

Loved those wheels on your odyssey mate.

That 182 is a really good upgrade! Looks like its been looked after as well

 

[JLister]

Cheers mate that was after its 1st clean by me lol

 

[Cw Tuning.]

both very very nice cars bro

 

[pedbuch]

How did you find the ta technix? I'm looking at them for a cheap low on the same wheels. How did the 85mm drop handle speed bumps?

 

[-Danman-]

Nice thread revival!

I had TA Technix on my old 1.6 as well. I remember them being a bit crashy on uneven roads but they were perfect for what I was after. - Cheap lows.

Regarding speed bumps, I always went over them at a few mph and mine was only lowered about 60mm.
