[Rob-mint-mk1-uno]

Front and rear strut brace's fitted like a glove how ever ive not taken it out yet to notice any difference, that's a late night job on the back lanes lol..
I also remove the air cleaner housing and the air pipe cus i got a k&n on there sucking away now, surly that great long pipe looses hp the air has got miles to go and it goes right over the top of the hot radiator not good cus we all no that the shorter the air route the better it will pic up and go ?
Wings are up next im sure they just unbolt right then the new ones just fit on, i know the arch liners need to come down any thing else stopping me gettin the wings off.

Myself up the wall! :bang: :bang:

It is nice spending some time on things that make a visual impact

As for the air intake track, ignore HP thing

You are more likely to encourage heat soak into the air filter

Contrey(?) to what most people think............"performance" air filters do feck all.....only effective on properly tuned engine (Every aspect coverd)

Here's a few more pics of my car from behind and i have now removed the one mud flap.. lol
Oh fitted a boost valve with the help of me mate dragyth, gotta be running 135 bhp now i might i say what a difference in power pulls like a train right through the range, how ever nearly ran outta fuel so had to get back sharpish lol..

 

[jamie86]

Very nice like that a lot

Lots of work going into uno's at the mo good to see

 

[Goldie Punto]

Better, was gunna say the other day loose the one mud flap.

I think you should get some nice new number plates now and fit them with sticky pads not screws.

Also whats your plan with the rear lights or you going to leave them standard ?

 

[thepottleflump]

Looking mint, needs lowering and I reckon the original wheels would look sorted polished up, too flat at the moment. Please don't change them for some aftermarket tat.

Yeah im gonna put gb plates on it new front and rear only 15 quid a pair so not to bad, lowering springs are a on going plan as i want to find a good spring and shock kit at a good price, no point lowering it on standard shocks it will wreck the ride.
Wheels are gonna be the white ones but i was thinking bout keeping the standard wheels and just drop it 60 mm, ill decide while its being sprayed...
like the punto wiper arm better than removing the whole lot i think..

 

[Goldie Punto]

sounds good, just they look alittle aged.

yeh glad you like the punto wiper, looks smooth and keeps the the back from looking so flat and boring.

also you didnt answer about your rear lights ?

Well i talk to dunc on msn and he's got smoked ones and his mate has the clear ones so i dont think he has any.. :bang:

Saw Rob's Uno and tuned it upto 1.0Bar with him. Goes (almost) like a little rocket right now. flies up hills, and that's with us both in the car!

Well impressed with the allround condition. Even the interior is very black, very nice and very, very clean.

Good luck to ya mate on ya project.
