Someone threw it in when i bought some KTEC ITBs off them, IIRC they mentioned it was a Tessa one at the time. I was going to just get the PMS one when i get around to placing a big order. And yeh, so far I've gone for, sump not leaking, leave it on. My only fear is when I had to drill out 5...

Also Also - (i wish you could edit posts) - has anyone seen a breather like this before? I has a completely flat bottom, no machined chanels what so ever, i assume this is part of a larger assembly? It also has no residual evidence of the channels in the rocker cover. I've basically just used it...

Finally to close, here's a fun thing I've learned, early ph1s don't actually have a keyway in the crank sprocket. I am told that this is because they use a forged crank of another renault but dont know for sure. Annoylingly i had thrown my original one away (or into the rusty scrap metal pile)...

Quite update, firstly i need to back track because i missed a little update, i got some doorcards. Are the pockets straight, not really, do i care? not really. Engine head is all stripped and packaged up to send for some porting and polishing Have been painting basically everything at the...

Thanks, I have some blue coolant hoses to go in which im worried are going to clash now. I might have to reinvest in some black ones just to balance out the amount of colour i have!

how have i only just found this?!

Wow its been a long time since i posted on here!! mainly because my track project was put into my nans garage and forgotten while i was at uni and couldnt afford to do much with it. I know the cup racers are fully subframe mounted. a lot of people subframe mounted their engines in mk1 clios...

this thread has made my night!! it looks like exactly what id have done to my clio when i was 18 if i had the money!! thankfully i could never afford to have paintwork done so i never got a body kit. but the interior looks similar to how mine looked! :D i now look back and laugh at what i was...

i always dump my keys straight on the roof! and ill probs never get out of that habit! :(

i thought it said "anyone who has lowered 60mm on a 1.2 is a horrible person"

log on for the first time in ages to find you have a ph1 now!! good choice ;) looks great man, ill have to keep an eye, hoping youll be making is as nice and clean as your 182! :)

considered insuring it!
