Valley's - 93 GS Project



  • thanks for the advice mate. i will see if they can send me excat photos of the kit to be fitted and take to my bodyshop to see what advice they can give me and a rough price ball park. however been thinking about your previous idea. smoothing out the entire car and lowering on 17's. with a respray. as this may be something different and eye catching.

    however when i had the car the front bumber skirt was cracked (previous owner took a speed bump lil too fast.) so i had this fixed and smoothed out looked sweet till some fecking chav put their foot in to it ( even left foot print) this has been fixed again but im sure the new supports will give way soon so in mean time might have a look round for new bumber with splitter to get a price.

    following that your right about the white led's everyone i seen with neons wants to know where to get them and how much. but one problem got mine trade.

    :P :lol: :D

  • any way been shopping alot on line for part for my baby. managed to get a decat pipe including delivery off ebay for 40 quid. will give you lot the seller when i get in to ebay some time. also looking for high shift cams and if there is such a thing sports tappets. let us know if you have any ideas on this.



  • You do know that its only legal to De-cat a pre 1992 car!

    After that its not legal due to emissions regulations brought in at the end of 1992.

    So if you have a 93 don't bother you will have to source a hi-flow CAT instead. :cry:

    Also a "De-Cat" pipe is just a standard piece of exhaust pipe that is cut to the same length as your CAT and has the correct sized ends welded on, £40 a bit steep I made one once for £8.

    As for sports tappets, I have no Idea but I cant see why you would need to upgrade your tappets so probably not.

    Also that would be "High Lift Cams" you are looking for not shift. The extra lift on the CAM Lobes lets your intake valves stay open slightly longer and therefore have more time to draw in more air/fuel mixture.
    Depending on the increase in CAM size you might need to get your fueling looked at aswell, ECU's can learn to a degree but it is limited.

    Hope that helps…

  • got me an old photo.



  • Sweet! :D



  • finished the bumper today. im happy with the outcome!! alot better that the crack along bottom.



  • Wow thats weird! But I really like it! Looks nice and smooth job up top :wink:



  • think your on about the angel of the pic. lol just realised it also.



  • which way did you do that?



  • what you mean which way did i do that.???

    but how i did it was. wire mesh at back at vent. sandwiched filler mixed with wire fibre. then fibre glasses etc to build up layers. bottom was totally with fibreglass to get support for the bottom splitter and just cut out the down teath on the middle vent splitters. covered with matched paint and laquer.

    i know i will need to do a few other things when the funds come along wire mesh grill and convert side lights and indicators (hush hush). but she looks better that it was.

    also been told that there is some form of paint coat that is rubbe based which will protect against stone chips.



  • I like that a lot, looks really smooth and the bonnet flows better into the bumper.



  • lol I don't like having to tilt my head - looks nice though :D
