That is a fair size plate mate, 200 mm is the common but i upgraded both clutch and flywheel to 215mm.. Big and strong enough to take 220 bhp im only running 180 bhp with my rich mod ecu,filter and exhaust...:cool: So does any one know if i have to change my coloum aswell as the rack ?

Hmm, would a manual rack bolt direct in place of my power steering one, or would i have to change the coloum or possibly the sub frame ?

still need ideas on power steering people, any help would be great.. ;)

well u say that but it's only what i have learnt as i go along, plenty of research is really the main factor. I still have plenty to do but im in no rush, gotta pace meself so every thing gets done right first time then i know every thing will work and last for years. Power steering is...

Yup, going for sum 15" laguna steels painted gloss black, lowered 60mm a good polish and clean and prob get the door step painted as it has a few chips on it appart from that it's gonna be bulk standard inside and out.. Best way is a sleeper, no one expects a 1.4 rt to move like this baby does...

Plenty of progress, i removed the top half of the dash and wired all my gauges in and rev counter wires.. And all finished Engine bay is nearly all done, just have to buy a filter and wire in the fan on it's own circuit.. Got my down pipe and cat on ready for mot just need to make the...

Hi all I have a mk2 1.4 rt clio on a s plate and i have just fitted my volvo turbo lump in and got it running.. My main concern is i need some better brakes as i don't think my small front disc's and rear drums are going to stop 170 bhp... Is there any easy up grade for the front, maybe like...

Honest i did, bought a 480 with a private plate still on it for £10, i would have never gone on the road the drivers inner wing was the corroded the chassis rail snapped in half, the rear quarter panels where that rotten u could see the floor when u was sat in the back lol.. Best place for it...

Well as for progress, not much.. had a major head ache with fly wheel issues and then i snapped my tdc sensor wires clean off... Fitted new subframe bolts and painted the manifold, sent me ecu away for the rich mod, should see 170 at the fly... Now just waiting for my fly wheel and ecu to turn...

At first i was thinking about putting it into a 3 door rsi but then i thought every one's done that so i thought i'd make a 4 door sleeper instead. This way no one suspects a thing untill ya smoke em lol..
