    225 engine in to a 197, advice please

    @Cro-Clio do you have any pics of your downpipe arrangements? someone else said you can use the megane down pipe and then use a link pipe to join it to the 197 exhaust? when you say some have used the full megane loom do you mean the dash part as well? does that all connect up to everything in...

    What do i need to fit 197 4pots under a 15 inch wheel (williams/2118)

    ive done searches and found a fair amount of information but i'd like to see it all in one place, preferably by someone who has done it! I have the calipers but thats all, nothing else and no machining done yet, thanks in advance!

    £2k LY 182

    It depends on when it was classified Cat C, if it was made cat C when it was 6 months old then you're talking absolute mega damage, if it was classified cat c 6 weeks a go then it would have been very minor. I'd say £2k is probably the right price for that.

    So i picked up a 1.5dci a few days a go, its returning awesome mpg but this is counted by the oil usage! ive read up that the 1.5 suffered from gummed up piston rings and often this is solved with an engine flush (apparently renaults own procedure is a double flush) so whats the procedure to do...

    Any info on this 461bhp 182?

    Its got a huge spec, i think it was K-tec claiming over 500bhp so the claim transfered over when Chris had it, i believe Chris bought k-tecs demo car as oppose to spending the '£20k' building the car/engine, no idea what he bought it for, he ended up breaking the car for parts because it had...

    That down pipe from TRW will need bracing (unless they have updated it and now included the brace)
