@Mazz 7701473629, number 3 in the pic. https://www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk/renault/renault-7701473629-kit-filtr-seals/

If the manifold and exhaust housing face are both flat, best off using no gasket at all.

Corona update day 5 Converted the blue dci to van spec. Paint match looks great from down the street and slipped with the knife resulting in claret running all over. Ran out of tigerseal so only got one side done, one of those days when you regret starting something but nevermind :LOL: good job...

@Mazz will find the part number for you on dialogys (y)

Quite common for the o rings to leak on the oil filter housing. My orange dci had a mega tight filter on it when i bought it, had to use brute force to remove it which resulted in a drip from that area. I made the fatal mistake of nipping the banjo up a bit resulting in a gusher of a leak...

Cheers mate, was a good buzz with it wanting to start straight away, as i had issues with it starting on the old trigger wheel.

Ran it up to temp, little bit smokey initially from oil in the bores but soon cleared. A few issues to sort as top water hose is leaking around the bleed nipple (cheap s**t chinese hoses) might change for oem. Minor oil leak from the oil pressure gauge connection just needs some thread sealant...

Corona update Finished plumbing in the fuel system, officially hate braided hose and routing fuel lines, worst job ever :cautious: Bridged the fuel pump relay wiring to run the lift pump to fill swirl pot and leak check, only one minor leak and needed to nip a hose clip up. Fired main pump up...

Quite common for bearings to come apart like this when removing rear discs or drums. Looks to be ok wear wise from the pics, i would clean it up, regrease and retorque, will be fine. Before all car bearings changed to sealed cartridge type, you packed the wheel bearing full of grease as it came...

Try another coat on one piece and see if that sorts it out.

Its a shame i have not got all the bits to build it in lockdown. Might get engine mocked up though will see.

Weekend update Lift and main pump wired up, went a bit overkill with the wiring possibly, 2x 40amp relays and 6mm wiring for main pump, but should be more than adequate. Also wired up stack fuel gauge and pikey temporary calibrated the dash with an old sender. Relays fitted in cubby hole on...

Ive never been keen on the spacers with nothing to hold them in place apart from the bolts. What grade were the bolts used? Could always add a sleeve inside to take the load off the bolts.

Looks spot on for a daily driver. These k9k do seem to be chase the oil leak, my turbo oil feed weeps ever so slightly even with the o ring in the right place.

Had a set of spare wheels refurbished for the mrs meg today, so stood them up against the Kangoo. Its going to look awesome on 18s

Thanks for the offer mate much appreciated(y)

Cheers mate, first place i rang was Motoscope as used to use them for an fittings all the time ten years ago or so (time flies!!) i think it was Pock on the phone yesterday and he said they have none in, i guess they must have less stock in. I think Rival have some in at Newcastle but the shop...

Updates Booked a week off work to get the bulk of the work done, could count it as self isolation as ive been in the garage all week :LOL: Fitted my ching spec silicone coolant hoses, the quality used to be ok years ago (have ran them for years in blue) but would not buy them again, had to cut...

If you want to keep the oem look, re bush the original shifter.

Great updates, looks spot on. The 225 you were pushing at Croft is my mates, i believe he had 270hp at that point and he does not hang about. I bet the lad in the golf had brown marks in his pants after sideways at Hawthorne, not much run off there :LOL:

Uch prob needs repair. Tachosoft on ebay do a decent job.

Downpipe fitted. The exhaust housing looks s**t, but keep thinking about gtx 2860 gen2 so dont want to spend money on this one. Might stick a bag on it Oem downpipe to block bracket modified to fit the downpipe. Started fitting the an10 breather setup. Braided hose cut and stab time once again...

Updates Wiring routed and clipped to inner wing Turbo oil feed with filter made up, and stack dash oil pressure sensor remotely mounted. Ordered a pair of alloy adjustable spanners after being messed about royally when trying to order a set of spanners to suit the an fittings. Came from china...

Need to book track time too but not sure what im taking, can it be booked without specifying car?

Still plodding away Stack dash finished and 90% wired up, just fuel gauge left to sort. Made some small carbon fibre infill panels to fill the gaps. Spa egt/boost gauge fitted, aem afr gauge fitted and wired into the adaptronic ecu. Reinstated the digi clock, as used to have a boost gauge...

Small update Checked the tyres on the blue dci as handling was pure understeer, and noticed the Linglong gallopalong shite tyre that was on the passenger side was just above the wear bar. Drivers side still had 6mm or so, but another no brand so stuck a new pair of Michelin energy savers on...

Stack dash in and wired with the leds fitted for necessary warning lights. Hours of cable routing and tidying up old wiring, still need to fix the carbon panel in solid, but another job somewhere near and very pleased with the final result :) Might even make CSF yet;)

Few more bits done yesterday, shafts refitted, pms shifter linkage fitted, alternator cleaned up and refitted. Seems to take an age to get the little bits cleaned up and done, but slow and steady wins the race i guess. Mapping booked at Efi for late May so best crack on and get it done...

I think most rust jobs fail as not cleaned up properly, you need to clean the metal up so there is no pits at all, and deox gel does it really well, but its the waiting game. I would personally take all the arch liner out, or wing off if needs be to do it right to get the back
