theyre listed...
please bear in mind that the project isnt finished, the engine bay is a mess and the engine is still yet to be removed,
and the interior hasnt even been touched upon yet!!
however from the exterior, its pretty much what its going to look like once complete!!
i just thought id take a few snaps...
What does the little plug (not the big red wire) on the alternator do??
is it meant to only have a single wire coming out of it?
on my ph1, its a two pin connector, but only has a white wire coming out of it, it also has what looks like a green wire that has sheered off right as the base of...

but buying this would mean a fancy new fully stainless steel manifold,
has anyone used or read...
Im sure some of you will remember my previous two projects.
ph1 non-sport
Track mk1
Well as of july this year i hung up my driving gloves for good because i was off to university, i broke up my F7R valver and put the money to one side for my next project, which was always going to be...
So im looking into building my own brake lines in my track car to get rid of the ABS system and have the line for the rear brakes inside the car!
but im not sure on the width of the pipe ill need to use and/or the fitament of the unions!!
does anyone know if theyre all a standard size??
would...
kinda need to know what the spacing is between the bolts on the 172 cup suspension.
ive been told its 54mm just like the regular 172 bolt spacing, is this true??
thanks
Sorry to post up extra threads about this, but would like to get to the bottom of my mounting issue.
can someone please post up a picture of a bare mk2 front subframe?!
from the top, and possibly from the side!
thankyou
The cup race cars and R19 run completely subframe mounted.
as does my mate on his valver and it seems to work very well.
picture above shows how it works, and i wanted to know if it would work on a mk2 subframe!
found this on eBay and thought i would share it with you guys,
looks like a minter! ;)

ive just been in an accident and been injured, (not seriously, just back/neck/head ache atm, but ive been told ill hurt tomorrow).
Im told im entitled to compensation but my mate doesnt want to get insurance involved.
really dont want to fall out with him over issue, but what can i do?? i...
Just stumbled accross this video from french car show,
im the clio right infront of the rallye at the begining!!
the pugeot driver was all over the shop!!

Are they the same as clio 172 callipers??
its just my local scrapyard will probs charge twice as much for clio 172 callipers on the simple logic that the clio 172 is a rare car (to be found in a scrap yard).
if i can whip them off a megane they will be much cheaper!!
also the same question...
so my valver is coming off the road on the 22nd July, being raided of the engine and interior, and being scrapped. engine will be stored/rebuilt while im on my first year of uni. Then will be dropped into a mk2 ph1 nonsport with a 172 running gear!
So this is a montage of all my favourite...
Ok so i dont plan on driving my valver for a year, after which, i wish to reshell it into a mk2
effectivley, the only thing i really wish to keep from the car.....is the engine and box!!
however, removing the engine and box will dump most of the fluid!!
my question is would it be ok to store...
My aux belt has started making a really loud whine!!
i dont think its a tension issue as i tightened it before and its still making the noise,
it has very little movement up and down if you try to move it by hand with the engine off!!
what else could it be if not loose??
alternator still...
Ok so its all different colours, rusting through and chipped to high heaven!
but i spent all afternoon with my pot of turd polish in prep for FCS tomorrow,
and was quite pleased with the outcome!!
and btw, im well aware that my dash isnt very asthetically pleasing, so feel free not to make...
So the car idles lovely, but in the wrong place! it sits at 2500rpm,
then sometimes lowers itself to 1500rpm,
its not lumpy or anything, when driving its pretty much fine,
dip the clutch in any gear and the revs drop to around 500rpm, then goes back up to 2500rpm?!
ive been told that it may...
Im converting to non-pas in my valver very soon and am worried about the toll its going to take on my steering wheel!!
i have a sabelt renaultsport wheel and i absolutley love it! i want to keep it as nice as possible!!
steering wheel cover ive tried all seem to be too big for the wheel! any...
So i need to change my shafts,
but i really dont want to move my allignment by even a fraction of a degree!!
i cant take the shock off the hub because im running camber bolts that need to be set up with tools,
i dont want to take the ball joint off the wishbone because theres a fair bit of...
Are they the same from the mk1 valvers and mk2??
i seem to remember them looking the same,
but are they the same??
i want to put the wishbones from my valver (polybushed)
and put them on my mk2 nonsport,
but i want to keep the mk2 rack.
are they the same? or will i have to get polybushes...
So the shell of my F7R valver is on a steady slope to becoming 100% rust.
its past the point thats worth fixing.
How hard would it be to reshell EVERYTHING into a mk2 shell??
will the following be able to go across from 1.8 16v shell, to a mk2 nonsport?
Engine,
valver Dash (dials)...
Few pics of my F7R weekend schlag!

so today i thought to hell with it,
for want of anything else to strip out of the clio, i gave the dash the chop! (and i dont mean its foreskin!)
im sure its not to everyones tastes, but personally, i love the way it looks! considering its the closest thing i have to a daily (i do maybe...

Ive got a squeek coming from what i think is my front nearside wheel,
it only happens when im turning right and putting load on the wheel,
it sounds like an old shopping trolley
