nothing wrong with LAD's work its just the bizare power claims they come up with


seen this at ricky's place at the open day aswell nice car mate

what size are the rear discs and are you running standard calipers with them?

thats true mate, rears was 292mm standard calipers yep taken them off now an back to standards size ,on back it would lock the back wheels at 70mph not really what u want, i would have crashed for sure if i left them on ha ha :eek:

Wow, 5.9 secs on standard cams is pretty mad, thats in same league as the EK9 Type R imports (run 185bhp on a 1.6vtec) :eek:

How much did the head work cost mate? Really interested I am... PM us wit price if ya want/can remember :)

Thanks a lot mate, bin looking for ages, my paddle clutch is on its way out (the release bearing is gone) and the prices for some of the others is a bit on the expensive side.
How harsh is yours? The one ive got at the minute is fairly gradual and manageable in traffic.

[andywiddss1]

its not too bad mate but no chance of slipping it . my realese bearing getting abit loud but not changing it yet as a want to get my spare flywheel lightened an ballanced to go back in when i do the clutch

[SidewayzSam]

[106chris]

I dont normally like saxos but this seems to be something else mate, really like it! The spec is very inspiring too for valver owners. Would you see much difference with KMS or similar - im contemplating whether to wait and get standalone with cams and remap or just standard ecu/cams.

[Ferg]

Very impressive Sax matey. Best colour as well... ;)

thanks dont think i would gain much bhp going to standalone / kms an i will not be changing to throttle bodys ,so im ok as i am just going to look at making the car abit lighter maybe c5 wheels lighter seats bolted to floor as seat bases very heavy an then fibreglass bonnet an tailgate :eek:

[Dan 106 1.1]

looks very nicemate i like it alot :).looks sooooo much better than the chavved up saxos in my area lol ;)

[andywiddss1]

ha ha i know what u mean thanks

[andywiddss1]

just a quick up date fitted a 24mm rear anti roll bar today an it feels alot tighter now on the backend

also fitted a powerflex lower engine mount an what a difference didnt notice just how knackered my standard one was ha ha

[Nick]

I don't get the .4 relevance :|

[andywiddss1]

to what

[RallyeDan]

thats the bhp reading he got from the Rolling Road Nick, so therefore it does have relevance

[Nick]

kk

[106GTIturbo]

Hi mate can you tell me a bit more about this valeo paddle clutch you bought ? not heard anything of these before ? where did you get that from ? how much ? what BHP is it gaurateed to ? i thought valeo made O/E replacement kit not uprated performance parts ?

[andywiddss1]

here u go mate give them a ring

http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/index.php



helix do a good paddle clutch aswell :)

iv had my valeo in 3 years now done loads of 1/4 sprints an track days an its still going strong just realese bearing thats getting getting abit loose

[andywiddss1]

takes u to the race clutch page mate

http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/index.php?cPath=1315_1220

[loudandproud205]

i was told oe clutchs were good for near on 200 bhp anyway but out above 180 id proberly go for a more extreme clutch tbh

[andywiddss1]

try doing 6 or 7 1/4 mile sprint starts at elvington in 20 mins with sticky tyres the standard one was shit mate

ok for normal road use

an clutches are rated on torque not bhp mate

[loudandproud205]

yeah i know that,
i was refereing to road use thou mind it was from the uber reliable people at pug-performance

[andywiddss1]

i would say normal clutch is fine for road use

as its just normal driving mate

track days an 1/4 mile sprints different game

[loudandproud205]

well mines coped with 144bhp fine clutch release baring dont like it thou and neither does my diff lol, but meh who cares cant be doing with the snatchyness of paddle clutch (yes am a girl lol)

[fred]

I like this car :)

Dedicated :)

[jano106rallye]

mate was thinking about geting cams changed, would you recomend or do you have more problems with the car since the change..
would be easy for me since i live in greece and lioliosracing is after all a peugeot-citroen specialist well known here..

[andywiddss1]

[106chris]

Cheeky bonnet! Look forward to seeing this fitted, make up for the extra weight of the cage - bargain at that price!?

[pug10sex]

cage looking nice, shave of weight with the bonnet then add it back on with mods :) i like

[andywiddss1]

ha ha cheers guys cage fitted just need to finish bolting in then seats ect back in

[tommy_rallye]

you welding in the mounts ?

[andywiddss1]

yes mate they will be welded aswell

[tommy_rallye]

good job then, never understood why people put cages in and never fit them properly, will end up more unsafe than without one.

you thought of getting lighter seats in a bid to beat ricky?

ha ha the difference between rickyp an me is his best time 14.4 sec my best time 14.5 sec so i will not be buying lighter seats also i have a full cage in now so the 1/4 mile is not an option anymore an trackdays are so much more fun mate :eek:

[aidy]

yeah yeah, i hear that beating ricky is your all consuming mission, dont forget he has a cage too! although he weighs about hte same as an average toddler which helps lol.

you make your windows yourself or buy a kit?

[GTI_Danny]

This is mint. Love it :)
Nice job on the wheels!!

[Crooksey]

I would do a full rebuild now you are at the stage you are..

Are there no score marks on the crank at all?

As the slightest imperfection will result in a loss of oil pressure.

I would do a full rebuild now you are at the stage you are..

Are there no score marks on the crank at all?

As the slightest imperfection will result in a loss of oil pressure.

checked all big end shells an crank journals an they look ok. with the piston coming down too far its snapped one of the oil feed jets off that sends oil to number one big end but they are only a screw in jet an iv got another block coming pistons crank rods ect .
