R5 GTT EFI Clio.
Hi guys, A few people have suggested i made a project thread from my ongoing thread, i didnt really want to as this project thread it gonna be spread over months and months, as i am only 16 and finding money is not the easiest of things, so if there is a long time between minor updates, bear with me.
The car is a Mk2Ph2 1.2 8V 2002 Clio, And im planning to turn it into a 1.4 8V renault 5 gt turbo engine, With fuel injection - beast with about 200 - 230bhp .. Should be good,
Here are some pics of the car...
Sorry for image quality, i only have access to a 2MP phone camera at the mo but a camera is on its way
.
Here are some of the mods i am going to be doing..
RS Grille,
Colorcode,
Repair bonnet (dad hit a duck doing about 60 in a rush to work in some lanes by a pond around 6am one morning, the dent was huge, managed to pull it out with a bog plunger)
Change rims (there only on there because tyres were running low on standard wheels and we had these with new tyres on in the loft, simples)
Clear Repeaters with amber bulbs (Bulbs are on order - should be here soon)
New standard headlights, as mine are all scratched and messed up? :S
Lower 40 - 60mmm, unsure which yet.
Headunit and sound system.
Renault 5 Gtt engine With home made fuel injection and exhaust system, built with a T25 front end/T2 backend.
The list will grow and grow as i get more and more into it,
Decided to add some fog lights when i get some money, but found out from another member on here that i would need to change the stalk so i had the option to turn the front and back foglights together, i went to the scrap yard, found a 04 wrote off 182, dash all intact ect, so took the stalk out and i know the man so he didnt want anything for it, so got home and took my old one out, and put the new one in, heres a couple of pics half way through..
So thats now fitted ready to add loom and put the lights in place..
I screwed the splitter back on underneath as it had come off when dad parked it over a HIGH curb. Replaced the hazard light switch as it was faulty, could turn them off, but not turn it off. And repaired the rail mech on the passengers seat, as it would lean forward but not slide forward, so people couldnt get in the back on that side, all sorted now.
Onto the engine side of things..
This is my turbo been mock put together, i havent got a shaft yet, so gonna have to source one of them, then a rebuild kit, then can be sent away for balancing, when it comes back, reassemble and box it up, ready to be bolted onto my new built engine.
Ignor the actuator in the second pic, this cannot be used because it puts the outlet pointing in the wrong direction, waiting for a new actuator to be turning up in the post anytime now.
I made a flange for the compressor wheel outlet so i can put a 90 degree samco onto it, instead of using the silly shaped origional pipe that can only go at certain angles, here is a pic of the building and it welded, only just got it back today..
Keys just to hold it in place for the pic..
Waiting for my dad to bring home some gaskit paper tomorrow and will get it bolted on,
This is my fuel rail that will need some injector bosses machined ..
That will be done soon after some more research.
Here is 2 looms merged together, the origional 5gtt loom, and the loom of the F7P engine, this is pretty much ready to be placed onto the engine for fuel injection once built, just need to change some connection ends as some are broke and happy days...
Should be good fun when its built..
Next thing to order will be some clear repeaters for the wings, the bulbs are on the way.
