My old 1.1 106 had a turbo slapped on it and a few other little bits and peices and I was running it at 106BHP, it could quite happily keep up with Saxo VTR's and the 106 Gti. The GTi engine conversion is a very good idea as the TU engine is a wicked little powerhouse that, when tuned...

My advice is tell him to piss off. That mod is about as useful as a chocolate teapot. The 206 GTi will give more power gain but there are problems with the ECU and wiring loom (speaking from experience). I changed out my looms and had the ECU overhauled by PugSport in conjunction with Peugeot...

Yes, indeed, especially as I know one of the track managers so he gets me in while others have to wait. RWD will be a very big problem for me but yes I have considered it. The problem I will have is that the 206 has no facility to put a driveshaft to the rear, the exhaust and suspension/ rear...

Yes of course, even with the new slip diff, if I put the car in 1st and floor it all that happens is I need a new set of front tyres. The smoke is impressive but the price for the new Yoko's isn't. I have to be careful when the car is in Race mode when I'm doing a drag because I need to have a...

Well if I can upload vidoes then I will show you it in action. I have a cuple that are decent quality and one that my cousin did (he works for the BBC so he got a proper camera crew to film it for me). Also, if you want to see it in the 'flesh' then come along to Donny in September when it will...

Yeah, sounds sensible to me. Obviously if you were just using it as a track car then knock yourself out and go for the 40mm but as its an everyday car then yes, the 30mm is your best bet. Hope you get it sorted. Send us some pictures once its done.:)

Yes, I agree with Wayne, the Koni's are much better than Weitec, they have a much better and proven history for performance suspension. You can ring Koni directly and ask about custom make up's, or just ask what they are willing to supply for you. I think the best bet is to look around and...

If they don't give you a discount for being on here, drop my name or drop the name CovCustoms, should sort it out for you then. Also, ask for Paddy, he's the bloke you want to talk to.:)

Technically yes as its a Holden variant, but as Vauxhall are owned by General Motors which are American, hence the US muscle reference. Yes, you don't see many Monny's on the road, in fact, round here, I have seen a total of 2 since the Monny was launched, whereas Beemers, well everyone has one...

Hmm, very nice. The Monaro VXR is definitely one of the best cars G.M... sorry I mean Vauxhall, have made. Did your Dad test drive one? They are mental, not as much power as you'd think but still enough to give almost anything a run for its money. In fact, in lower gears, the Monny will trounce...

Haha..... well what can I say. I was thinking of a few other things but yeah, that aswell.;)

Ha, no, she hates pink cars, she wants a full respray in black. Even if she did ask for Pink, that wouldn't happen as I'd refuse to allow it lol. Then she'd refuse something else and I would end up doing it. Good job then that she doesn't want pink lol. Well, as I said, it depends on how...

Yes, I do have conceed that Wayne, my missus is actually really into cars so I don't think she would mind me getting one of these. But, yes, I have been finding that as a single bloke I did have considerably more money than I do now, however, there are several benefits to not being...

Fair enough, thats definitely a sensible idea. At 25mm Lower the car will definitely handle better but will still retain comfort for when you don't want to drive like a maniac lol.:toung:

Well, I can do all the work myself if it does have drums, I'm used to getting down and dirty with cars. Hmm, I don't know if it does have discs on the rear, haven't physically seen it yet. Ouch, that must have been a bit of a crash then? I'm going to moddify it for her anyway, new alloys...
