Thought i best pull my finger out and do a bit to the Extra with Anglesey/CSF only a matter of weeks away.
It has been pissing down with rain all day which put me off doing anything, but with time ticking it needed road testing to check the clio dci steering rack was ok and geo/toe...
Clean up, rust converter and chrome spray or even silver paint will make a massive difference to current fogs until you find a solution.
Failing that put some cibie covers over the top
Look spot on, i guess its the same colour anthracite they used years ago. I had a few sets done by them in the mid - late 2000's when Rob owned it and was always a good finish.
I have a set that need doing again soon so will give them a go again, had them done by motorcool and powdercoat...
3 weeks away and ive not driven the Extra yet/still out the country until next weekend. Still got brakes/geo and anything else to repair. Mot runs out day after csf so that can maybe wait.
Best pull my finger out😆
F4r771 megane engine runs cop albeit different top inlet to 172/182.
I could be wrong but id imagine coil dwell time settings might also need changing to suit the 197 coils in the ecu map.
There certainly is low speed and high speed for fan, low speed on with ac.
High speed comes on at 99degrees.
I dont think you will have an issue with it but here are the diagnostics from the manual.
The fan is pretty quiet on them, i only heard mine kick in when next to walls i.e. mcds drive through. Id expect overheating issues if you have sat in traffic and its not working.
Can test it with can clip if you want to be sure. Alternatively monitor cooling temp on obd and fan should cut in...
Forgot to add the billet alloy 250 inlet to r26 throttle body adaptor arrived from Veban Motorsport. Nice bit of kit, ill get it fitted after my hols.
Tapered design for good flow and sized correctly to match both opening sizes.
Thanks for reading!!
Im not keen on the adaptors, caliper might be slightly off centre causing the pads to not hit the disc perfectly square.
Id go for a proper setup like pms personally.
Updates.
Fitted a pair of carbon rear arch protectors from Mega Carbon. They kindly done a set as a one off for me as they aren't producing parts at the moment. Quality is mega and a very good fit.
Bonded on.
Also give it a wash with the rest as the birds had pebbledashed it and the front...
Updates.
Wash day for both Dci's. Orange was pretty clean but blue van was in a state so well overdue.
Washy.
Blue van also had interior clean as well.
Also treated the blue dci to a set of new Alpine speakers for the front to replace the crackly 187k originals. Simple plug and play install...
