Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Didnt make it sound like that at all, I know what work is involved to make the exhaust sit in a cutout. Hence why JP said they would modify it to fit into the bumper.
exactly, it would HAVE to be moddified, billy big b****cks makes it sound like he can cut the bumper and job's done, erm no

Oh dear. This project thread had lasted so long without some douche trying to tell everyone how to do everything.
Looking good so far anyway.

Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Sounds like the worst app ever... will no doubt tell you its 150db... i.e. louder than a space shuttle taking off!
Just leave the cat on you muppet, fu*k all changes apart from noise on a standard engine tbh, as proven by Jonff... You dont need to change everything!

Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Incorrect considering the previous owner did a 98db Donnington day with it on his car. Rob wont have an issue at all, its not really 'that' loud to be honest. I think its just another general CS thing where everyone makes it out to be 100x worse than it is, same with manual steering being 'the heaviest thing ever', when it really isnt...

Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
don't be daft, the full race system WITH decat was sub 102db, "just" made it onto bedford if the wind was right, but with the stock cat in, then it was sub 98db no bother
we NEVER said it wouldn't make noise limits, what's the bloody point in making the thing if that were true?

Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Not posted in here for a while, as nothing has been done to the car for about a week. So on tuesday i got my act togeather and ordered a new dephaser pulley from renault, and a new stub axel. Fitted thge stub axel and discs, then we swapped over the dephaser pulley and timed everything back up again.
After that was all complete about 7:30 ish last night i took it for its first drive. After driving it for a couple of miles, for the first time in about 8 months there was no rubbing, no scraping, no knocking. The car felt more togeather yday, felt solid. And all i can say is wow, after going from a 1.2 to a 2L im very impressed. MOT runs out tonight, and its booked in at renault to have the MOT done at 1PM tomorrow. Going to check everything over tonight and finish the last few bits and bobs ready for its MOT.
No pics or videos of it driving yet but will sort some out as soon as i can.
