Welcome to the club... Quite often only being in Warrington, its a good circuit but I still prefer Cadwell as a favorite, I think its more suited to the type of car the Clio is...
Although, not actually on track just yet! Grabbed a few pictures for Rob earlier after he had the MOT sorted yesterday, and nipped to Oulton to use the weighbridge - which resulted in 921kg.
The project thread for his conversion is here!
Yeah very unlikely, but who knows, its pretty much the only thing left to try..
Earthed both gearbox and chassis together in various locations with jump leads previously to no avail..
Yeah both wires have continuity to the ECU connector. The teeth look OK when looking through the inspection cutout on the box and turning it over by hand, but its hard to tell properly...
I agree about the ECU, but its wierd how we know all the sensors we've tried are good, the piece of loom to...
The electric racks are just manual racks, the actual assist part is a huge motor attached to the column behind the dash. MarkCup on here runs a DCi rack on his 172 without any issues IIRC
Tried it tonight - no different, still just cranks :(
Also cut the crank sensor connector off my loom (which works fine) and soldered it to Adams loom. No different again, just cranks over. As BRUN said the revised one is out, but to be spending 40 quid (after buying spare sensors and looms...
Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Incorrect considering the previous owner did a 98db Donnington day with it on his car. Rob wont have an issue at all, its not really 'that' loud to be honest. I think its just another general CS thing where everyone makes it out to be 100x worse than it is, same...
Tried two (known working off running cars) crank sensors on the old original engine loom... Then purchased a 172 Ph1 engine loom from a running car, wired it upto the Mk1 loom etc, then tried both crank sensors and still no different... Would have to be some serious co-incidence for it to be the...
Right, plugged into RSTuner and Renault Clip this evening thanks to Jonny, although its not given us much more insight. This is all done on my ECU.
The RSTuner connected fine, could view all sensor data fine, no faults apart from the ones expected (Purge) either. Booted the Clip up and checked...
Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Nah, its just a placebo if anything imo. Fair enough if the engines heavily modified and mapped properly, but other wise nah.
Need the spacers too.
Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
Sounds like the worst app ever... will no doubt tell you its 150db... i.e. louder than a space shuttle taking off!
Just leave the cat on you muppet, fu*k all changes apart from noise on a standard engine tbh, as proven by Jonff... You dont need to change everything!
