Engine mounts are wear and tear persoanly buy brand new ones and idealy get the 4th one the R19 use from the subframe to the...
have you swopped the fuel pumps as well its not difficult (asuming you have got or made the tool for the locking ring) else you might have trouble as the ph1 has a return line the cup doens't.
Fuel pump you can get to easy remove/tilt the bottom of the back seats and under the black cover with the wires going to it you'll find the pump and pipework.
Depending on car engine you'll have a feed and return lines.
Sounds like you bought a car which needs some work not the cars fault.
If the belts are getting done then that most oikly will fix it otherwsie then have a check at the carbon canistor it might need changing.
Abs slectro rings might be cracked or damaged or loose new ones can be bought...
Talk to Rotax the'll be able to advise on what they sell.
Yep the Mino one is for a 110hp ish N/A engine at 1.6 liter not a 2.0 running 169hp engine you'd have to overspin it to get the boost top end which ins't ideal.
Price depends where yo get one from new there not cheap you might get...
Import does affect values.
Part ex prices for a Uk spec are car about £3.85k for adverage condition say a few hundred off for import. Say add an extra £400 or so for a private sale.
I woulnd't pay the same for a none Uk car regardless insurance companies cna be difficult and do value the cars as less since there always cheaper to buy not decliring when the cars sold on is fraud.
If the car hans't an alarm then most insurers won't cover it so the point about interier not...
Exhaust systems exists for it plus remaps exist and can be done

Its not unsualy to burn a bit of oil top to bottom of the dipstick is only 1 liter though check when cold though it can make a big difference.
5-40 or 10-40 fully sythetic but you could...
Bit excessive but oil chnages should be done very 6k/6 months anywa.
Stock 10-40 is fine down to -20 degrees in the F4R engine 5-40 which many people use is ok down to -25 but realy is it ever going to get to -20 ie ever be an issue? Its not like we live is a massively pour climate.
1) Nope. There a few options but you need to get a specailst insurer etc realy. It can be cheaper to insure than a proper car as such depend though
20 Try the kit car places and specialist insurers so try a car magazine like fast car rte cand ring all the compnaies on there.
Being as you've no warently at all what the service intervals that Renault said for normal cars ie ever 18k/2 years is unimportant IMO servive ever 6k change the oil and every 6 month IMO.
The Renault rules for serviceing your car to protect its now none existant warenty are...

Turbo is more efficinet and will make more power at low rpm realy.
Nope those electric turbos whilct the ideas is good don't work at all.
220hp could be run with stock internals realy you don't want to use the mini charger so need to get a cheaper charger to suit then you've got fitment and...
Depends how much you spedn and what setup you want about 220hp is about stock limit with intercooler and normal fuel and stock internals etc.
