Engine
1.6i N45 '116i' models produced from 2004-2006. There is a throttle body upgrade, replacement sports exhaust/catalyst (£450 inc. VAT and delivery) and ECU re-flash (£250 inc. VAT & delivery), but the engine remains largely standard.
Suspension
116 Sprint uses a control coilover damper kit from GAZ Shocks, adjustable at the rear only for equality, simplicity, budget and to reduce complication for newcomers. The kit includes adjustable billet front top mounts and is priced at just £778 inc. VAT and delivery to registered drivers.
Brakes
Brakes remain standard, but pad choice is free. Discount deals are available to registered drivers.
Transmission
Only five-speed manual variants are permitted, and the dual mass flywheel may be replaced by one of two single mass options if desired.
