as scrooge says, its probs not a part listed for a specific vehicle, just a generic part theyll have off the shelf!!
failing that, just go to a scrappie and take one?! lol
i tried them without centre to begin with!! wasnt a fan tbh.
and as for the catches, there was nothing in my instructions stating that they had to be the other way round, and i can find plenty of examples of them mounted in this fassion on race cars, even one in the aerocatch home page banner...
if the misfire is bad it might ruin your car if you keep driving it, itll be dumping unburnt fuel into it!!
coilpack is the box that all the HT leads go to that sends a spark to the plug at the correct time!! they go wrong quite a bit and easy to replace.
might also be the plugs, my old clio...
dont know what theyre there for, but its usually a good way of telling that the bumper has been painted or not.
as for replacing them, why not just get a cheap small sheet of vinyl and cut it yourself and make them?!
im sure you could get them from renault but theyll probs cost £32+VAT knowing...
i did the above with just a cheap halfords universal exhaust hanger, worked pretty well!!
but now that the mot station have pointed it out, they might try and insist you get a proper replacement! :(
couldnt comment, sorry.
looking at the suspension layout of the mk3 i doubt mk2 ones could be made to fit, sorry if i got hopes up there!
but im sure there will be a line of budget coilovers out there for the mk3s!
coilovers,
springs barely get you a noticable drop!!
do some research, theres a high chance renault didnt change the hubs from the old mk2s in which case youll be able to pick coilovers up pretty cheap!!
oops, sorry for adding possible competition!! good luck!!
Daz i was thinking this, might be worth finding some other pictures of mk3s on 15's before considering most wheels from the mk1/2 range!!
a guy on here had pink wheels on a black mk3 nonsport, pretty sure they were 15's and they looked...
they dont weigh any more than my oz f1's, i may consider changing to suppalaggera's (sp) at a later date when the tyres die on these!!
this is the same set up as all of the itb, plus the ph1s had the fuel cut out switch.
ill probs dig it out and refit it in the final build though.
theyre not...
the black and white theme works well!!
serious lows and nice wheels will make it look ace, then just little touches from there!!
white williams wheel?! not seen them on a mk3, i think theyll look awesome tbh...
decent garage with the proper tools will pop this out in well under an hour!! rear take about 10 minutes to do,
30 minutes all in to do the front, using a lift/impact guns/hydraulic spring compressors makes it a complete doddle!!
might as well try it yourself if you have basic knowledge!!
what could really go wrong on a 1.6 so bad that you'd need to get rid?!
tbh id just sit it out until you can afford what you want, whats the point in half measures!! lol,
changing cars always ends up costing money ime, there will always be a few things that need doing and before you know it...
Omg, i remember reading some of this project back when i joined years ago......
and i saw the actual car during the london tunnel run last year.......
never in a million years would i have thought they were the same car!! im absolutely shocked!!
amazing work guys!!
very mixed opinion on the wheels!! i only put them on because they already had the paradas already on them, but theyve since grown on me!!
No perpex windows just yet!! i want to keep it road legal and road bearable!! plus ive got to work to a budget! hence the standard power!!
im only running...
was meant to read the mounting PLATES are 3mm steel....but the same thing!!
cheers guys but i was really hoping i wouldnt be asked for a spec list...
ive been typing for ages updating my project thread but ill write a spec list after ive had some dinner!! :)
and Ben, i see no reason for...

i lowered the rear again as it sat quite high after i got everything out of it!!
