Thanks for your all your comments (good and not so good). I'm far from precious about comments as thats why I post stuff to get a feel for peoples general views. Styling always gonna be a bit hit n' miss cause its so much down to individual taste when you move away from the norm. Also realise...
When finished I'll put up a proper build thread. The engine was advertised for sale everywhere but obviously why would someone want to buy it? Meg 250 owners are probably still running warranty and certainly no ones blown any up yet? No one thought they'd fit anything other than a Meg 250. I was...
lol....just when it was going so well. Its really not that bad as it may appear in pics but each to their own. Like I said, its a bit marmite but certainly not bloody Nova 1993 lol....and if nothing else....its just a re-paint. Maybe piano black? We'll see....
Thanks for all your positive comments.....Hopefully a set of KW Clubsports in new year and although the brakes are generally superb, wouldn't mind doing something crazy with the set-up...360mm maybe???? Heres some interior pics. LY stuffs a bit marmite but looks better in the flesh....going to...
Need to mod a 197 fuel pump to fit a larger pump inside it (if that makes sense). Anyone know if the 1*2 fuel pumps fit the 197/200?
Need to mod fuel pump to get at least 3.5 bar....
Clio 197 with Meg 250 engine. Really happy with outcome, fueling and some mapping to finish, and we'll be somewhere close to 320bhp and 360lbft torque.
I have a R27. I have fitted V6 airbox, matched inlets and def improved drivability. The sound from the airbox is very addictive....Often the improvement is on the road and not on the dyno......
V6 airbox fitted. Happy with finish. Lots of hidden work to keep OME look. Relocating fuse boxes and also fitted battery point from BMW for jump starting leads, as now bought racing battery off fleebay so moving battery from boot to under passenger seat....Now just waiting on matched inlets and...
Will dig some pics out. Damage wasn't that bad to be honest. Cars fixed prefectly with no paint as the panels are straight off another LY 197. The car was cheap enough to allow me some fun without the headache of finance & warranty. Also not bothered about resale as a cat c. Not many LY F1's...
Cat C R27 put back on the road as a bit of fun. My first Clio. Repaired and now fitted H&R springs, usual RS front chin, cup racer rear spoiler, 200 diffuser, Miltek + decat, 200 clocks and just finished today V6 airbox and battery in boot. Next week matched inlets and having them powder coated...
