With EP3 box and the engine as high as it is in that picture it has a chassis notch (I’ve spoken to him). Although he said they can make it fit with no notch or subframe modification, amazed at how they will manage that tbh

Looking to see who has converted there mk2 clio to a hydraulic clutch. either when going 02M etc. in the final stages of an engine conversion and struggling to find a DCI pedal box so looking to see what others solutions people have came up with.

They are available for MK1 and MK2 clios, quality of panel varies between suppliers

any more progress @Camsmyth

run VAG clocks. Personally i would have shafts made to the lengths required rather than sleeving a renualt outer and VAG inner your main issue will be chopping the drivers side of the subframe to clear the sump

A clue would be.............. S65

Yes mate

Looks the same to me. Guess you’ll find out when you get alignment done. You out on the CSOC night in the 3rd Neil?

I was there with a bunch of lads from Scotland who mostly were running in the RWYB class. 2 clios, 2 civics, a focus RS and 2 evos. Was a good day but I felt it was all a bit hap hazard an poorly run.

Gearbox is any clio 172/182's downfall. The JC5 is a pretty weak gearbox, beyond that a well built, mapped and maintained turbo clio will be reliable.

looks superb (although i just cant get on with the rear bumper), and good to see its still making progress...........all be it slower than suspected! You must be eager to get it finished and in use now with it being so close

I now run a PS-09 and its been issue free as long as i have had it. Numerous people i know run them without issue

Looking for a pin out diagram for the PH1 172 Hazard switch. It seems readily available for PH2 but not PH1 Anybody assist? Thanks

I have always found the ones with splines as per the 2 above tend to develop play. Only ever used lifeline splined versions though. The CBS, NRG Innovations style etc use a series of ball bearings to locate instead of splines. As yet i havent found any issues with the ball bearing type

Perfectly ok for track use. Car builder solutions do a similar item for less than half the cost

@scullyg40 I'll be watching with interest as to how much you save from the doors by gutting them and going poly/lexan windows.

Looking to see what others are using and if they could tell me the overall depth of the boss, ideally looking for as shallow a boss/hub adaptor as i can get. Never really been happy with the placement of the steering wheel, always been too close. Currently use a generic adaptor for a clio and...

I think if you want to get anywhere near 5k, never mind 7k you will have to break it. I may be wrong but i cannot fathom why someone would pay 5k for a clio with a broken engine. Running and driving turbo or high spec NA clios often sell for less.

I priced up the ecu, dash, GPS module etc last year an was over 2k! Not cheap but the features are awesome

I had looked at those membrane panels before, opted against it as from memory each channel could only handle 10amps

Engine bay looks soooooo much better with ABS, power steering, battery, fuse box etc removed.

If running an aftermarket ecu and dash it simplifies the wiring no end, or go PH1 ecu etc and delete the UCH entirely then create your own wiring loom for lights etc.

Worth noting, not all laptops can communicate via the serial port

Contemplated selling as i have an itch to build a classic mini.

Out an out track car for the bare minimal electrical items needed beyond ecu, look at a switchpros SP9100. Less channels than the cartek but does the same job

I honestly don’t know how you can be arsed with it anymore. Parts taking 7 months is absurd, not being able to figure out what’s to be done is ridiculous. Also not being able to put a fixed date on when it will be together an ready for mapping is crazy. More power to you for keeping going

It will be fine even without heat shielding

Dash looks good. Where’s it from?

Speak to dave at SOS motorsport in falkirk, he can map it for you.

Looking for a complete wiring diagram for a PH1 172. I have a copy of the diagrams for a PH2, but would ideally like to see the diagrams for the PH1. Anybody have a copy they can email me or a link to them? Thanks
