View Full Version : took my valver to hillpower today...
at long last i got round to taking my valver to hillpower to b transformed in to a hybrid, did'nt take to long to do the trip, 132miles from my house then back again. took me about 6 hours in all. also my m8 in his vr6 who came with me to take me home had to put £70 in juice to do the trip :shock: , i gave him £40 tho so i was'nt to bad. im now without a car for 2weeks :cry: as the conversion gets done, im having a 2.0l fitted with new piper cams and pulleys, hillpower stage 2 chip, viper ik with diff t/b adaptor than k-tecs, bb-decat, scorpion exh system and i will be using valver manifold. im also getting new uprated fuelpump, new mounts ( uprated dogbone ), new wil clutch , new exh manifold heatshild, new magnecor lead, plugs,cap,ra also getting injectors cleaned, and a few other bits and bobs done while its there.to say i can't wait to get it back is a bit of an understatment. 14 days to go....

dont worry mate nick will look after it, will be a monster when u get it bak, he worked miricles on mine :wink:
Those wheels are really sweet, but it would handle and accelerate a lot better on 15s. Just a thought :)

:shock: Nice one mate. 2 weeks is a bit of a long time aint it. :?:
i know what u mean about the wheels, i put the std 15" ph2 alloy on a couple of weeks ago and i could'nt belive the diff in acc and handling, im keepin the std wheels so i can change if need be. the vr6 and petrol, i could'nt belive the amount of juice it drank, made the 1.8 seem cheap as i only put £25 in when i left my house and still had juice when i got there. the 2 weeks waiting time is due to nick being busy at the moment and he did'nt expect to have the car this week, iv had the eng since july and was going to get it fitted in the summer, it would of been a week then as he was expecting me so my fault on that part. 13 days left....
out of interest where did u get the engine from?
brought it of nick, was it yours??
how much is that costing you mate?
doubt ill have any change from £2.5k
brought it of nick, was it yours??
nah not mine, ive been lookin for one for ages, tried hillpower, inifinicar, cliospares, renault car parts, cit-ren, couple of other request forms online, ebay, the lot cant seem to get hold of one!
shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit 2.5k, be cheaper to sell the vulver and get a williams wont it?
i had the same problem when i wanted mine, i posted a request on here and cliosport and got a few replys, 1 tellin me to phone nick as they knew he had 1. j3ned also had one at the time and someone else also had 1 but i can't rember who. worth putting a post like i did, u never no...
reason i did'nt sell up and buy a williams is because i like my valver as it is and if i brought a williams i wouldnt b able to touch it ( apart from the eng). u could get the conversion done for around £1100 but that would just b a 2.0l fitted with no new bits, as ive had the cam conversion, pulleys and quite a few other new bits thats why the price has gone up.
ahh, good thinking.
Good luck with it fella.....it's gonna be RAPID! :twisted:
