plenum is the same fitment afaik but you would also need cable engine loom, ecu etc whereas with the cable engine its all there ready depends what works out cost wise, if you can get the fbw engine cheap enough it may work out cheaper to buy the plenum, loom and ecu etc seperate and swop it...

i kept watching ebay, signed up to a few salvage sites to get updates when they got clio's in aswell, rang round a few salvage yards but all of them i found had high miles or could only sell me certain parts and not everything in one go eventually one was listed on ebay, it had been on for...

yeh followed everyones advice and just bought a cable throttle engine complete, eventually managed to find one with low mileage aswell, result :D

because a big gaping hole looks a bit gash imo, they arent gonna weigh that much (taking a dump before going on track will balance it lol) and i like filling my time with little jobs like this :rasp:

its not airtight tho or stretched in any way, may vibrate abit but then its a track car so the more noise the better, adds to the raw feel lol

yeh ive looked into some sheeting and it is super expensive, may end up making them out of plastic like a mate has done, looks just as good just without the carbon effect

its not your fault bud, as you say would have been ideal tho :dapprove: yeh everything bar qtr cards but i can do that sat morning before you get there, will get the gf to give the carpet a hoover for you aswell ;)

i wish i had realised you were selling your buckets and were looking for px :( could have killed 2 birds with one stone there! you want leather i want buckets lol

wahey another one :D we can make our own club at this rate lmao

anyone using 4 bonnet pins on a mk1? every pic i have seems to show just 2 towards the rear? any complications in using 4 pins? ta

or will i have to make my own?

but rstuning can either remove it or get round this can they not?

riiiiiiight is there no way of either doing away with this or rigging it up to the valver immobiliser so it works? soooo many questions lol

what does the decoder ring do? you keep mentioning it but im non the wiser lol

man i am royally confused now lol i hate electrics at the best of times i only have the engine loom, not car loom,so what is to stop me decoding the ecu and then wiring up what i need to the existing valver loom? ie ignition, warning lights etc? i make it sound so simple dont it lmao

i presume it sits in the car and is not attatched to the engine loom directly, but through the big black plug? if you get my drift?

oh the joys i have to look forward to :S what is all this about uch's and transponder immobilisers? i thought having the ecu decoded would sort all this out? or is there more to it? what does the uch look like?

sweet :)

is that ok to do? does the pas fluid not work as a lubricant aswell for the rack? if it is ok i may well do that myself :)

how come the 16v column wont work? i got a spare rack with the car aswell, its in a plastic bag so havent looked at it yet but its prob a power steering unit rather than manual :(

what your pas pipes are in the way of the manifold?? that cant be good! im just trying to find a manual steering rack, found one on ebay but its listed for 91 to 94 models, and the valver is a 95 m anyone know what the differences in the rack will be?

cheers for finding that thread winston, got some pics i needed to see, like the gap where the 172 manifold pokes through, looks a wee bit tight! lol

exactly! thats why you should expect mixed comments, they arent all gonna like it! as long as you like it thats all that matters! i havent even seen the pics btw :rolleyes:

cheers that is just what i needed no i didnt get the cat :( although i have been looking at this http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2034 i wonder if i could use that, may not be a direct fit but would be a start?

cheers wayne :) (again) dan - have you been able to try the clutch out at all? there are so many people using so many different combinations lol its just finding one in a running car thats difficult lol

have you got a pic of how the downpipe had to be fabricated? would help me out alot :)

i hope you are making detailed notes for me chris ;) lol

i have been told the arm is a different shape and can cause issues?? and i havent questioned him cos his is a fully working specimen lol

right spoken to the guy at renault again he narrowed it down to 2 parts, one he selected is written in french so he is assuming they dont order many of them??!?!? the other was giving a part number of 77 00 725 720 can someone check that on the dialogys? says it is £20 + VAT which is...
