She's been to Hell now shes coming back.... and already putting parking noses out of joint
.
Big thanks to
@MarcR™, @jesus for the Trophy advice.
@DTM Cars Ltd and @MicKPM for their time on PM and the phone.
@Neil@greenlight for a quite stunning quote.
And @trophymike for parting with her...
You can use a resistor to disable airbag sensors under standard seats when fitting anything without an airbag.
Or I believe you can go to a specialist who will reprog the airbag ecu to not look for them.
Not sure about the seatbelts with tensioners, but I have two 106 rear seatbelt clips...
If you do the mirrors,
Just get a full second set. That way you can experiment without messing up what's top condition. Plus if your spraying then any set will do.
Is this lawro's old car? If so I would listen to sound advice and just keep utterly mint. The only and I mean tiny little comment I would make would be chasing some renault trophy speedlines. Rather than the standard ones. And that only so you run the renault center caps. Such a tiny change...
ok so now for a more complicated question...
How do I use this . I believe this was roterx the prefered choice for tunners
Again please assume I am talking b0ll0cks..
Y axis pr.. Guessing this is boost yes? 1.5 being 0.5 bar boost/7psi?
SC Rpm.. Well I guess that's the engine speed x...
Thanks folks,
Going to start saving. And keeping my eyes out for bits. Just wanted to try and do things a bit cheaper as far as mechanics. I appear to be lucky that EFI or RS Tunning really are not that far away.
Will probably ask a few questions of a few people of the next 6 months.
I...
Like the idea of how you can stage all this. Yes kit/Ecu is the start. Then say save another year. Do the internals, derestrict then remap. Bigger fun. Start saving for gearboxes ;)
Just seen there is also a gearbox involved. Not sure if I am understanding the spec numbers but on a Rotrex 30 series its 1:9.49. So guessing adding that (10 times for simplicity)to my basic calculation
5000rpm engine = 100,000rpm at SC using a 1:2 ratio pulley
Yes?
@Ricardos excellent supercharged PB thread has got me thinking. And not a in a cheap way
Complete so novice sorry,
Can anyone give me a crash course in supercharger basics. Am looking at flow charts. Am I right in thinking your SC RPM is dictated by the engine vs SC pulley diameter ratio...
Stop taunting me with those figures Rich, damn impressive mate. Looks like an ideal amount for a bit more grunt.
Soz I did ask before.. Why is the megan pulley involved?
Great little update. It tips like that which just make this site worth the £12 a year. Would never have expected to find that much dirt behind the arch liners. Chris "makes not to self to pull those off one day" and have a look.
Russ any reason those horrible little torx bolts can't be...
Sold/Not Sold Either way its an epic thread, trophy/v6/itb madness all rolled into one plus all the highs and lows. I get upset at yet another dash light. Let alone what you have stuck thru mate. Cant believe its "worth" selling after all that. worst case better just put it back to factory...
Here's what apparently happens when you take the seats out for buckets. Not done it yet myself but you should be able to workout what you have and haven't got left.

Good to hear your sorted mate.
for future info.
However I agree with the comments above. If you unplugged an injector and nothing changed...then you have found a knackered injector. When you unplug a healthy one the engine should noticeably die in my experience.
I have had two knackered...
Yeah, just be carfule it's not seized and tries to turn the whole mount. I got a stubby one off ebay. Not a 100% size match to the mount but good enough.
Brilliant Ben, I thought I did well finding a ten year old car with 58k on it. You certainly won't be short of buyers if you ever did shift. Will be interesting to see if DTM £5500 super low mileage 172 cup sells. R- sport looks like he got messed about with his 27k for £4350 as its back up...
