200 cup rack and new under bonnet sound deadening arrived thinks to @renaultpartsdirect awesome service as usual! Started throwing it back in tonight this was the only pic I got due to it being dark but it's in, mounted and all wiring done so tomorrow is just the shafts, coolant and AC...

Test the battery, last time I had one showing circuit malfunction on a couple of systems, the battery was on its way out.

As above, make sure the switch is known good

£500 if still available from your local dealer, i had it on my DCI Consists of: Front Splitter Side Skirts Rear Diffuser Trims on wing mirror mounts Trims under fog lights I got the body shop to fit it as it came with an instruction book about 40 pages long which they just threw in the bin

Fitted the freshly refurbished front callipers and carriers - Had them done by SSL Autoparts on ebay, really quick turnaround, fantastic job - recommended. New OE Delphi lines fitted too Be needing to get the RaceVans done soon, maybe a funky colour for it lol

don't worry about lag its not really an issue unless you fit something the size of a house radiator. I just use the universal ebay numbers, they used to be about £50, do the job just fine for these engines!

182 injectors just fit onto your current rail so all good! the turbo runs out of puff at the 145-150hp mark so on a standard turbo that's the best you will get with injectors, intercooler, air filter, decat etc

nope the ECU controls boost

I'm behind with the times now, Is a clip clone still the way to go for a DIY Renault guy or are any of the above a good alternative?

Agree with that in regards to the mk2, its just a shame the common issues are so... common - And pricey! HOWEVER, I still stand by the opinion my 220 Trophy was the BEST RS car I've owned! - it took me a few weeks to gel with it but id recommend anyone who likes an RS to try one, as in buy one...

You could, but given the bad experience of people who have done that before i would make sure you do your research and make sure the local place is clued up enough to do the job, just because "its only a Clio" or "they do stage 6 fiesta STs" I would be wary of having something custom like this...

I assume the 197 timing tool your referring to is a custom tool to fit 197 cams?, not a Renault 197 tool as the horseshoe is the same for both?

Yes it has a factory intercooler but not a very big one, behind the grill on the drivers side. The problem is that the factory injectors are almost maxxed out even as standard so its not a great idea remapping one on the standard injectors. If it was me i would take it back to where you got it...

Finally back together, I hadn't ordered the camshaft seals, but the exhaust one was weeping slightly so I changed them, so that was a delay. I couldn't get the crank sprocket off (if I knew it was keyed I wouldn't have bothered taking it off!!!) so had to use a bit of heat so wanted to change...

have you stuck the alternator part no into eBay? the one failed on my DCI80 and when I googled the number I found out it was still used on some modern Renaults and got a date stamped 2014 genuine one that was identical from a breakers.

Its that long since I've been in there I'm not sure!

Since everything has been out for a cage id be pulling the dash top off and checking the earth points first

looking good mate!, telt ye you would like it! My mates 59 plate one had a tiny bit of rust under the rear wiper where the window meets the boot lid, he chanced his luck with Renault under 12 year anti corrosion warranty a couple of months ago as he didn't have dealer service history, went in a...

id imagine its all the sensors via the ABS pump as when the electrical side of my pump failed I lost the speedo

Just got the wheels back from a refurb, 4x PS3s fitted and I've sent the front calipers away for a rebuild and refurb in silver as they were binding on slightly.
