Hi all, My car is currently off the road so some major work is going to be going down on it soon. It currently stands as a 1.2 8v. But im going to be doing a engine conversion in time. So I want to upgrade the brakes, after some consideration i'm going to leave drums on the back as the costs...

if your wanting to do it through the stalk you will need to change that and buy the loom for the fogs, this would also require additional wiring to put n place. your best off making your own circuit to save bucks. The wiring wont be in place already.

mine still connects and downloads fine. Make sure the nzb your downloading isnt older than around 35days as their retention time doesnt go much longer.

yeah agreed with it been the idle control valve, there easy to change, just find your throttle body, it will located on itself. Make a note of the model number and order a replacement, check out eurocarparts. Should be 2/3 torx screws holding it in place, for ease remove the throttle body.

the front bumper and connecting points to the arches will require a cusotm bracket as they are wider than the standard arches.

once you have bought them, you will just need a positive and negative for each fog, join then together in a switch circuit and wired straight onto the battery. place the switch where you want in the car. use the rubber gromit behind the engine bay to feed your wires through.

you can fiberglass the back of it to give it back the strength and body filler over the top, shouldnt be a hard job.

I'd watch where that clamp is joining the center section to the cat. The lamba sensor wiring fray's easily, mine did the same where it hung and it was pulling on wire. If you push down on the tail pipe you should notice it straighten out. I'd replace the mounts they look shagged.

Going to keep a eye out on this project, Got mine off the road at the moment and will be some similair work to yourself :)

I went down to scrappy as the wire to the horn snapped, just replaced the left stalk cost me £7 :)

the 1.2's have 52mm bolt spaicing cheapest you can buy is the vmaxx for £350.

My socks have gome on the rear thats why i vwas enquiring about that.. but cheers for clearing thst up, gonna make headway with this ifea.

I know this is a drag up from the past but im thinking of doing exactly the same. But just wondering about the rear? Does anything need to be changed there? Like are the bolts different sizes to be bolted into the rear axel?

Im thinking of doing a conversion from my 1.2 8V to the 1.2 16v TCE. Now both engines looking pritty much the same. My question is are the mounts the same from a 2005-present as mine 2000 mk2. I dont need people saying its a pointless swap, because its effiencient, good mpg and a small bost in...

Requires a lot of bodyfiller, but fairly easy to get done, mesage me if you need a hand :)

Bumper fitted, Happy With the finish.

Yeah de-wiper would finish off the back. But looks great so far (Y)

That engine is looking prittysweet, looking forward to updates :)

after 2nd layer of paint. Slightly wobly when looked at the side on angle but hard to spot face on. Dont think its a to bad job for myself :)

as said above, make a mould of your boot floor, and transfer onto a sheet of mdf, if for storage i wouldnt say to thick, about 10-13mm and cover in carpet. I'd say best bet is to make a box with hinges so when you open boot you can just pull it up to gain access.

Just because its says K+N doesnt mean its going to be louder, all your paying for there is a brand. You got a link to the one your buying?

try doing a search first, there will be plenty of results, but the differnce in colour is one will be more shiny quite simply.

Bumper after body filler and partial primer. Now has been painted and waiting to be laquered :)

So i got 4 days off and thought what could i do. So buying 4 litres of body filler 10m2 of fibre glass and resin will occupie me :) starting on rear bumper getting the plastic inser smoothed over. followed by boot, side indicators arial, de wipered and to adapt the front bimper with the 182...

try tar remover, that stuff works a treat on anything :)

if you havent got the stalk for the fog lamps and have blanks inserted it would be highly doubted the loom would be there, but sometimes renault will use spare looms when mking the car, so unless you have a search for it i doubt you couuld possibly get the answer. alternativly you can just wire...

You sure those arnt SMD's? Never seen so bright LED's unless its jsut the way the camera has captured it.

you will have a hell of a load of glueing to do, to get it back on, really not worth the effort.

LED bulbs are shocking for lights, there only bright at certain angles if your looking side on you can barely see them, silver visions all the way.
