I’ve taken on to do the very same, 197/200 brembos under OZ Superleggara 15’s. I ordered 280mm brackets from Nick in PMS and he sent me a diagram where 1mm needs to be machined off the callipers face that meets the bracket and the to enlarge the holes where the original bolts go. I’m going to...

Please explain how to modify - I’m in the middle of it and don’t know what to do. Thanks

My Meglio

Hi, trying to find same... did you come up with a solution or someone to supply a kit?

Thanks so much 👍

Ok, maybe I should rephrase the question- What gearbox’s, from which Kangoos (or other models) are compatible with clio 182’s? On my box I’ve a damaged casing - I have loads of new internals and I want to swap everything incl. seals and bearings over.

Folks, is the Kangoo dci box the same that in the 182 - ratios aside? Are the casings identical?

Cheers, I phoned him the other day ... and indeed he did. Thanks👍

Into my local renault dealers to see if I could source this ... they haven’t a clue. The mechanics and the lad in parts were probably still in nappies when my car was built! Can anyone get me the part no’s? Please

Cheers, the threads on the nut are shot (not on the shaft though) .. obviously not the 1st time it’s been off. Is it available to order?

Hi, Can seem to find an answer to this ... My Clio 182 gearbox, drivers side out pit has a seal and behind the seal is a 50mm nut with a collapsable shoulder and a shim holding in a taper roller bearing. I’ve tried reusing the nut - but keeps working loose. Can anyone tell me the part number...

Right. Sincere thanks to all who contributed and for the solid advise you’ve given. Looks like I will be adding my 197 cams and group N timing tool to that overloaded shelf of surplus parts in my garage.🙄

That’s kinda the bit I don’t understand. ED used to offer a turbo kit for the 197/200 before everyone started going the meglio route. So, why won’t it work in a 172 block?🤷‍♂️

Yep, that’s what ED said...I was just wondering if anyone else had a different slant on it

I was going to buy the ED 280 kit , but apparently the piggyback ecu has been discontinued. So ED offered a modded 230 kit modded for lower compression which would yoeld. 260. Really, I’d like 280.

My 172 engine rebuild as follows: Forged 9.5 or 8.5 - 1 pistons and rods(depending on availability) lightened flywheel, paddle clutch, ported head and inlet. ED turbo kit PMS race exhaust - no cat. ....and here is my question. I’ve bought 197 cams and a gpN 8degree advance timing tool...

Yes, I’m a tube ? ... a Freudian slip. Yes R26r

Can anyone answer definitively if the r27r clutch is different to that of a regular r26? Would anyone know the part number? Not getting much help from our local Renault dealer. Would anyone recommend a particular upgraded item? In the interests of keeping the thread short and to the point- I...

You win Ok, you win buddy!

Also very interested... my track car running 15” oz superleggaras with studs so would love to hear / read more.

Up until this evening ... I didn’t even know recombobulate was a real word ?

I’m bang on the border, north of DUNDALK and south of NEWRY

...Ignoramus even ?

okay, I’m going to put my hands up and acknowledge that I am an ignominious. What is clip please?

As the title suggests... Rebuilding my trackday 172 from the ground up and ripping out a fair bit as I go along. My question is (if I intend using the standard Renault ECU).. is it possible to remap it to remove those annoying airbag, traction, seatbelt, emissions, etc..... warning lights offa...

Thanks everyone for your input. Seems like there is no cheap option available. Will just have to continue to remove unnecessary and replace dud circuits as I go along. Thanks again

You make a good point ....but I could buy a lot of contact cleaner and change a lot of fuses and relays for that grand?

Define s**t...... I remember reading here on the forum of a company and looms is all they do. Standard, motorsort, s**t hot motorsports ..and there price for a Clio engine loom was alright. Just can’t find the post or remember their damn name!!! Cheers for that, I’ll give em a look. Still very...

Can anyone recommend someone to build me a new loom to replace the crusty one in my 172 track car which is undergoing a full on rebuild and I don’t want the electrics to be the weakest link. Thanks,

Hi, could you do me a loom for my 172?How much would it cost and would you need the original as a pattern? Thanks, B
