    did not know that a R19 16V wishbone would give you a widder track then a clio would.

    can someone explain that to me? and what do you havne to change?

    Its a longer wishbone, but you also need longer drive shafts, williams shocks etc

    It depends if you can source things 2nd hand. Its a good few hundred quite and at least £500 if you but new parts....driveshafts are the most expensive individual items - suspension is expensive too, just depends if you opt for uprated stuff or coilovers.

    the williams wishbones are the same as R19 16v wishbones, the clio 16v's wishbones are not as wide as them, which is one reason why the williams has a wider track, obviously driveshafts/shockers/arb etc are needed too!
