Hello everyone,
I am Jort, i come frome Holland and i have since 2 years a fiat punto mk2a.
It is the HLX version, not the sporting :driver:
This one of the first picture when i got it:
I am Always in for tuning and making things for it, so i "modded" a bit.
The exterior looks at the moment stock, i found performance a bit more important.
The changes:
- John ashley stainless 4-2-1 header
- 200 cpsi stainless catalytic converter
- Remus stainless muffler
- 50mm ( 2 inch) staight pipe, without centre muffler
- K&n 57i induction kit
- iridium sparkplugs
Pics with some of the parts:
At a point, one shock was dead and then i thought why not a coilover kit.
So i bought a FK Highsport kit:
At the time i was mounting them i realised my disc brakes were a bit overheated (circuit of Zandvoort), so i replaced them as wel:
The coilovers are really awesome, the handling is sooooo much improved! I can really recommend these coilovers!
A friend of mine from a dutch punto forum, asked me if i could make him some rear camberplates. I can, so i got from him a set of knackered Alessio Monza rims.
I sandblasted these and a friend of mine powdercoated these in hard coal grey? That was an translation from google, in holland we call it Antraciet, dunno how you guys name it
Yesterday i got the new rubber for the tires, Yokohama Parada tire's. These are almost semi slick but are road legal!
The interior is stock, i only did a bit of ICE. I have an popup screen from clarion and jbl woofer and amp.
ICE:
- Clarion VZ402 Head unit
- JBL GTO-804, it's a little 8 inch woofer with a custum made box to fit in the wheelarch.
- JBL GTO-804e, around 1000watt 4 channel amp, i have put this one under the drivers seat
- JBL GTO-609c i believe, these are nice component speakers in front.
Maybe later, i wille change the rear speakers. And i want to make more horse power, maybe when i have a bit more money rebuild the engine with a turbo.
Thanks for reading!

Welcome to the forum Jorto, looks like a great list of mods you have there!
The coilovers make a nice difference i bet.
Ok nice, maybe we can meet up if theres an trackday. But firstly i have to get my car back together haha.
Im an member but not active, im using this only forum for my project. Maybe ill put my project up there later.
Thanks guys for the welcome!
The coilovers are great! It has the handling a lot improved. I have now the 7j wide rims wit an inch per axle of spacers. It handles like a cart.
@Hustler,
It would be nice to meet! I don't know where you live but maybe we could meet sometimes.
