i tried to do that but the engine blew an i had a choice to put in a 1.4 or spend the same money an put back in the 1.2i the choice wasnt hard :lol:
But its is best to wait a bit before doing anything engine wise

i was thinkin the other day about a 1.4 engine, can u fit 1 using the same driveshafts etc?? and does it make a big difference on insurance? cus in the future i wud possibly consider it

its basically a straight swap same shafts ect... dont think its a big increase on insurance. depends on your age though.

everyone has there own style.
it does not bother me in the slightest. i wont tell you its great and i wont say its horrible. its totally up to the individual.
i personally dont justify the money for kits, the cost to replace etc. if some thing goes wrong on mine, there are scrappies down the road for me to look.

Hello, welcome to Novaload.

P.S. Please try not to abreviate words like "every1, wiv" etc. It'll make things a lot easier when you start asking for help.
