Yes, that is a 1.2 16v with a leaking water pump

Pages of 'Jobs' list all done bar one... This Saturday!!!

Pete, yeah he's not a stupid guy and really knows what he's doing with wiring so thought he would've put something inline to protect the equipment but its always worth checking. The real issue to resolve now though is how has a transient over voltage managed to get thru and damage the unit? (I'm...

I just wrote a massively detailed reply and Tapatalk stopped working so unhappy! Pete, without knowing what ancils you now have its hard to say but generally the load on the charge circuit will increase as you switch on more items. Also I don't know how great your gauges are or how sensitive...

Volts, Oil Pres and Oil Temp... basics and essentials really imo. Unlucky though Pete it happens more than you'd believe.

Is that a Megane Coupe on 2118's!!??!! Awesome

It was all working when I left it lol

You cannot really compare the DS2500 to the DS3000

Re: Fitted solid dogbone mount, EML comes on after car is left idling for 10 minutes? Usually an injector

That car left as large an oil mark outside my house as the 30-3 defeat by the Welsh left on my soul. "It's okay" he said in a funny accent "it's been fully rebuilt" (he said again in that funny accent).

Coupe revival!

The thing that killed the Coupe 16v image for me was all the 1.4 and 1.6 versions so the 2.0 16v faded in to the crowd. Deffo agree though as they are a proper little weapon.

They're actually alright to drive but being torsion bar rear beams they grip, grip, grip, bang... let go I loved mine and a guy in a GTi 180 didn't want to believe my standard car destroyed him at Rockingham.

Look at the ass end of that sticking up like a p**n star bagging to be slammed hard - why no adjust torsion bars?

My DS3000's after 1yrs track use:- Note the tell tale sign that sbridgey was behind them at some point!

true dat!

Prepping the car for Bedford on the 15th with "Team Mincer Racing" so today has been setting camber, giving the car a service with new fluids and oils and putting on some body protection on the underside where I had to remove underseal from when welding the cage in. After some zinc paint a...

Mine had TSW's to but they (fortunatly) weren't Venoms lol A phase 2 interior conversion is easy enough to. They're a very underestimated car to and handle pretty well. I'm sure there was a stripped one with us at Llandow last year.

I love the fact it's Sunflower, I had one myself and they look awesome properly clean. That one 100% needs the spat mudguards though. Also noticed the spoiler is black... why? The one thing I hate about Renaults of this era though are the terrible cloth patterns and the fact the interiors are...

Only if you do it the way Scott dud. A standard phase 2 should already run an F4R so the loom and management are already capable. Just needs a remap and a physical engine swap. I personally prefer the laziness of the F7R to the F4R even still.

2.0 16v phase 2... would sooner do a 172 F4R hack

Okay firstly the Megane uses an F7R-710/714 which isn't the "Williams" engine. There's nothing special at all about the F7R that was fitted to the Williams Clios either except they were 2.0 16v rather than 1.8 16v engines that gave them 13hp more and a serious amount of torque which made them so...

I personally run -1° shims and they work great without causing adverse tyre wear.

Re: Changed standard seats for clio sport seats, airbag light won't go off! MOT FAILU If you pay to become a forum member I'm pretty certain there's a guide that tells you how exactly to do this. It's £12 a year and honestly worth every penny.

Are you and the wife coming out to play (I mean "test") on the 15th Pete?

They also make a seriously amazing induction noise

I fitted some to Clarkeys 172 recently and even with a restrictive inlet and a knackered U/S H02 it still did +10hp over standard on standard inlet so with those bits fixed I expect it to make a smidge over 180hp

Yeah the solid mounted racks are without doubt a great piece of forward design from Renault and you're unlikely to have issues due to mounting bush wear again but as you say its not a 5min conversion.

I don't mind EPAS but I really don't like the eBay unit for on-the-fly variable control over the assistance. It's okay in the hands of someone sensible that puts the time in to find a safe medium but put it in the hands of a muppet who doesn't know any better and thinks its funny to have max...

Mapped it yet?
