I've had the bores measured today and the good news is that the block hasn't had a re-bore, it is a bit worn but not excessively, so I'll be ordering some 83mm pistons & getting the block re-bored to fit them :D

It's only for tonight, I took it to get the bores measured & not been home yet. I'm at work and got 3 cameras watching it :rasp: so its all good

I've got a 2.0 litre megane block and a 5l bottle of mobil1 in the boot of my pug :D As for my clio's boot......it's got half the interior in thats had to be removed to beat out the bent panels :(

I did notice how coked up the head was & was quite surprised but not too bothered as the whole thing is being rebuilt with new parts & obviously a proper map I'll be getting a rebore as well, I just need to measure the cylinders to see which pistons I need to get as I don't want to go too far...

Right, time for an update :D not done anything for the past few weeks :oops: had some money making projects on the go ;) But here's the pics from the stuff I done last time round Engine in order of strippage Can anyone tell me if I should be bothered about this rust on the cams, or...

Yes it will have boost :evil: Here's some pics I took of the repair work this morning The only downside is it's gonna cost an extra £100 as the roof had to be re-done :( the repair to the top of the B-pillar caused the roof to move a bit & cracked the paint

I'm in exactly the same boat as you mate :cry: Mine got mullered on bonfire night :mad: just waiting for the clowns to pay out so I can get it fixed, I miss it like mad so in the meantime I'm abusing the shitbox 307 diseasel courtesy car

I'm turning my valver into one :cool: with added boost :evil:

Cheers m8, bit of a help as its come up with 53,00 hits instead of 472,000 anyone else?

Where have people got these from? I want to get some for my old man for crimbo to go on his astra, but I cant find any :mad: Have they got some other name that I don't know about? :S Google is not my friend atm :(

I can vouch for that as well m8 :( gutted for ya :(

I hate that its just like a good woman, annoying & expensive :dapprove: but by christ is it fun to rag the pants off it :rasp: I love it :D and sometimes fcuking hate it :mad:

:S oh well, at least I was nearly right :rasp:

You'll need a new head gasket, new head bolts & a cam belt, big(ish) job but not too difficult to tackle yourself and afaik the ecu should be a straight swap

Unlucky :dapprove: My m8 done something similar last week to his Vee :nono: scraped a shedload of fresh paint off the bottom of the bumper :lolup: Oh how I laughed - 2 mins after picking it up from a respray as well - UBER FAIL!

I was going to say it but MarkOne beat me to it & covered it all :rolleyes: lol Keep at it m8, looks in ok nick from the pics, but I know they can't show it all :) mine was a bit of a nail when I bought it as well :o I've got a ph2 rear wiper arm & motor if you need it ;) unless you want to...

There's a guy on williamsclio selling the complete widetrack http://www.williamsclio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33146 ;)

:lolup: Was quite shocked at forgetting how much of a nail my valver was when I bought it :S

He's getting it all done, just got it back from being re-sprayed that cost him £1k :eek: and he'll be happy that it's all perfect after the service so fair play to him really :approve: Besides I cant wait for him to come back down to earth & being skint like me & our other housemate :rasp...

That quote was from renault in Nottingham (clowns tbh :nono:) It's going to Ezra Sugden Renault in Worksop, came highly recommended from ppl on here after the usual suspects :p I don't know how much this place is charging but I think he's having discs & pads all round done as well

I aint got a clue how to help :S But I'd give the dealer a proper bollockin though:nono:

Latest Update Got the car to the garage to get the brakes checked, turns out that all the crap from the other lads car I ran over had somehow knocked loose the goodridge hose at the back & was leaking a tiny bit of fluid, hence the sponginess So my mechanic nipped them tight again, then...

The valver and williams wings are exactly the same If you're going for the widetrack you need the willy wishbones, ARB and driveshafts as well as the right shocks You can fit the valver coilies to the widetrack, but it fcuks the camber up, best off with the williams ones Have a look on...

If it does fit, whack a turbo on it :evil: be worth it for the giggles, just like the 1980's micra I've seen with an SR20 DET lump in it :rasp:

My m8s vee is going to renault to get all this done next week, clutch, cam belt, water pump & service, costing him £2k:eek:

If you do need a new antennae cable, it comes as part of the kit from renault, new ariel, new base with rubber seal and the long grey cable - I got all that for £12 :D Sounds like you've made some good progress though :approve: keep up the good work & get some pics up
