The kangoo trekka and RX4 use 4 wheel drive
WARNING - These transmissions are very unreliable and suffer from lots of problems including gearbox failure ( especially the JC7 scenic unit ) they also suffer from wear on the transaxle bushes and bearings - they cannot cope with excessive torque...
Renault head units have a double time out function - if you type the wrong code more than 3 times it will lock up. Each attempt after this will double up in time before you can re-enter the code again....ie another incorrect attempt will give you a 2 min delay before you can re-enter the code...
This is my mates car - its very quick and the torque is amazing !!
Its really about 250 bhp and is quick but wont do 177 mph - even with a 100 shot of gas it wouldnt be 350 bhp. This is a slight exageration.
Oh - he also runs it on a chip fat mix but hasnt put that in the add.
Dick Landy's AWB ( altered wheel base ) 426 Hemi melrose missile this was a really famous car and laugh if you want but it was running 8 / 9 sec quarter mile runs back in the early 60's
The 426 Hemi lump is in my opinion the best engine ever built. It was originally strictly a racing engine Its over 40 years old and was developing over 550 bhp in standard factory trim ( although Dodge, chrysler and plymouth M.O.P.A.R quoted 425 bhp for insurance and safety reasons ) back in the...
Battery - when you try to start the car press the horn - if it dies on you when your attempting to turn it over its the battery at fault. Did you leave any lights one last night ?? if not fit a new battery and whilst its running do an ampage check - it should generate between 12 - 14 volts...
you will need
Bonnet £80
grille £25
O/S & N/S front wings £70
2 x headlamps £80
frt bumper £80
O/S & N/S headlamp panels £60
You dont need to change the front panel, just the headlight panels.
get an S3 lump and a 5 speed box - the S3 bottom end is stronger.....if your planning on fitting steel rods and forged pistons it wont matter.
You can keep the standard clio wiring loom ( apart from the engine side of it as you wont need it ) Then contact DTA or Emerald and they will sell...
1.8 T engine is a doddle - you can run a specially designed DTA wiring loom to fit and run the injection / Turbo on the vehicle. Me and my mate ( Jordy ) have done both a 172 and a 1.8T conversion in my clio and the 1.8T engine was just as easy.
Heres a few of the several hundreds of pics i have
change every 18k in my opinion - 75 / 80's semi synthetic. The JC5 box is bad enough as it is - neglecting oil changes will give your box a shorter life
The early one ( scruffy looking car ) is a Z28 camaro 351 ( 5.7 V8 ) the concept Camaro fitted the the new LS3 lump will probably be put into production shortly due to demand from the US public. Theres a massive trend in the USA at the moment for the revival of late 60's muscle cars. The 5th...
