2.0 16v Tipo

Hi was told about this site by one of the guys on tipo16v so here i am and here is my tipo. hope u like!

hi.
looks like mine iam repairing at the moment.btw,whats going on with the off side spot light.

hehe it was like that when i bought it. annoying but nothing i cant sort out. had so much s**t wid this car just glad to be mobile now!

Whats it had done? Looks quite low...

Anymore pics?

Looking good btw

what sh*t did you have with it? mine scrapped its bottom end seems a common problem.either they run forever or scrap the botton end on a regular basis stuck an engine from a lancia thema in it which iam still in the process of finishing.weather the main stumbling block]btw,where's your h/light wipers?

had lotsa work done to the engine: cams, port polish, pistons, different vernier pulleys, lightened flywheel, air filter and a gas flowed (whatever that does lol)! been lowered not sure how much but its on springs only and it stupidly bouncy so i think coilovers for cars birthday! needs work done however to get it running 100%.

just the guy who i bought it off didnt bother to send the log book off. that kinda thing. i wasnt aware that the L8 ones came with h'light wipers . car wise i got a clutch system to sort out, CV boots and more recently some little ****e decided to play aim with my windscreen!

all the spring does is stop the shocker from oscilating.get the shockers on asap.i hope with the lightened flywheel,you had the flywheel,crank and con rods balanced as one unit? if not,you will have bottom end problems.

yep. luckily when i bought the car i got all the reciepts so i rung the garage where it was done and asked them what had been done as i was a bit suspect. they said that everything has been done perfectly and that they was never going to work on a 2.0 tipo again as they are such sods! is this true??

yes weather is being a real biatch atm. im trying to repair my window runner n its just so cold!

yes. some engine builders will not touch them.yet others say no problem with them.mind you,there are engine builders and rip off merchants.i would ask your engine builder if the bottom end was balanced or not.

yer will do. cheers for advice mate. most probably going to go down the 16v turbo route eventually.

yer tell me about it. my m8s got a fezzie turbo, he sent his car to get done and the gits replaced with slighty modded engine with a standard one! cant trust no-onne theses days!

Excellent you arrived! Very pretty looking and a lot of work under the bonnet!

P.S. Do you recognise this one?
