Always makes me laugh when you see people say 'if only i had the money'
Be sensible, if you had £15k to spend on a car you would have to REALLY REALLY love clio trophies to drop £15k on one.
Anyone who says this is an invest is on some real good drugs, This car has 20 years in it of doing no...
@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...
Lets say i have a complete 225 with a slipping clutch and body damage and a 197 which came from renault with the wrong engine fitted what would i need to do to put the 225 engine in to the 197?
Exhaust set up?
225 shafts or 197 shafts?
wiring adjustments?
Air con must be deleted or rad...
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!
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.
I bought a fridge freezer from currys via ebay on saturday (same price as store but get nector points via ebay) for £250, that would have been £50 saving. gutted
Has anyone changed the turbo on a 1.5 megane dci before? is it a s**t? ive had a brief look and it looks like its all from underneath, im fairly sure the turbo is the cause of the smoke issue with the car, im going to have a look int he boost hoses on sunday but its either the turbo or the...
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...
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...
I believe engine dynamics tun their exclusive at 280bhp with just a thicker head gasket - that cars been done for years also so im assuming pretty reliable
That reads badly, Engine dynamics cant book in cars for a weeks but once the cars there its in and out in under a week, Joe meekings booked his car in, waiting around 6 weeks then took his car there dropped it in on the monday as an N/A 182 and drove it out on the Thursday as a 230bhp turbo 182...
