In no way a sleeper but........ My Nitrous V6 with 100 jets back in 2002 ( you can just see two 5 pound bottles behind the back seats ) . Ran a best of 13.4 @ 107 mph which wasnt much faster than the orange sleeper. I blew the V6 engine as well :D but got that covered under warranty. I have...

It was the gas yes, but to be honest the engine hadnt been set up properly to take gas. It was my second Nitrous powered car and i was inexperienced with the stuff. I fitted a digimax progressive controller to safely inject the gas in over a short period of time as a 75 jet would cause major...

Grafted a ph 2 front end on and painted it matt black Not normal developments ( matt ) owns it now

video 2 ( jeremy townsend from renault doing commentry ) http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/championships/worldseries/videos/ £3200 :( ...... i lost interest in it. Quite a well known car on the drag scene. One major reason was it was very unstable and it got to a point were i knew i was...

dont bother - 1.8T is the way forward ( dont mean to piss on your chips fred )

It was a custom mount everything - cost nearly £10k by the time i sold it and made over 400 bhp

as above F4R 730 MK1 172 F4R 732 MK2 172 F4R 736 MK2 172 F4R 738 MK2 182 F4R 830 MK3 197

13.5 @ 106 was best time. Blew quite a few lumps hence thats why i stripped the engine out and converted it to an Audi 1.8T engine ( see Clio TT ) for more power and reliability

been on for a while - you could pick up a straight car for the amount it would cost to repair. These salvage companies buy them off insurance companies for a couple of grand thinking theyve got a bargain - they dont realise how much they cost to repair and then end up owning them for 12 month...

The original conversion i did ( 1.2 grande clio with 2.0 16v engine and 75 bhp Nitrous with progressive controller ) In summer 2004 a white EVO 6 pulls up behind me at a set of lights ( preston new rd near the old moat house hotel ) i had seen the car around and he knew me........ I switched...

Ahhhh - hence the smell of food in your mothers bed ;) (c,mon Fred you were asking for that )

2 different engines fitted to the same model Its the F8Q 714 that runs the Lucas Roto diesel set up ( R8444B840A ) If your sure its a bosch pump it will be the F8Q 730 engine

Mate - your talking to me here ;)

No - especially not the new DCi engine £1 - £2 a litre or less

By the way - your clio runs an F8Q 730 engine with a bosch R458 pump ( common rail type )

lol - it will work When its a little colder use a 75% oil / 25% paraffin - white spirit - kerosene mixture, whatever you can get cheaper ( the fat congeals and block injectors ) £8 for 20 lts at our local asian wholesalers

VAG 1.9T ( 1.8 ) - in my eyes one of the best engines ever built http://www.auto-teknix.co.uk/Audi.html

No - block / bellhousing different

A sleeper is a bog standard car in factory guise with no bodykits / large alloys The clio TT before it was a TT - back in 2002 ran 13.5 @ 106 mph with gas

nice conversion but shame about the kit ( 300 hp & cheap ) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Audi-TT-1-8T-Engined-Rieger-VW-Scirocco-Turbo_W0QQitemZ300228986378QQihZ020QQcategoryZ9873QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

The lump was based on a chopped down Rover V8 The design was sold to TWR to use in the XJ220

This a Dave Appleby conversion ? Been to his house and seen one of these being built - clever bloke http://www.davidapplebyengineering.com/history/

Me and my mate ( guy called jordy ) hes a fabricator & mechanic by trade and im a mechanic / renault specialist. He built this at the same time ( runs 10.2 best to date ) this has had a 4WD conversion using an S3 set up ( 81 scirocco Storm ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-prXT_ZdXo...

VR6 old toss ........ ( waits for Pinky to defend them ;) )

Built a 400 hp clio already with an Audi lump ( see clio TT ) so its just a case of fitting the transmission and running gear and then building a transmission tunnel. Sounds easy but it will take me some time

I am seriously thinking of doing it hence this post... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=330034&highlight=AUDI Im also looking for a decent Cat D mk 1 172 to fit it into

If you were to do the conversion i would use an S3 Audi as a donor car, fabricate a transmission tunnel in the clio and transfer the entire set up. Get the S3 lump tuned to a usable power and fit a race logic traction control system to compliment the set up

From experience ....... dont bother as theres no 4x4 transmission Renault build that could take the power
