Yesterday's progress. Fitted the oil cooler hose and lobbed on a new oil filter. I dug out my ITG and also found my strut brace lol wasn't looking for it but would never had found it if I was so fitted that on aswell. Also fitted my VBD xtra low seat frame. Now my seat doesn't rest...

Haha yours is mental build. Done any more to it? I'm just gunna get mine running with what I've got then I'll play around with it I reckon.

Ah ok cool. What where your plans when you had one? Haha sounds like mine apart from I've just tipped the interior and glass today lol You can't be far from me then if yours is at Beanie? Haha hopefully the experience is as good as mine then lol

Where is your cup then lol?

So I decent length hose before the airfilter is what I need then? Haha. With the 20v engine you only need about 100mm to keep the airmass happy and reading right. You on standard timing and cams etc? You got a thread on yours? Main reason is just to be different. I've had bodies before was...

@ADS1982 you running the standard length RS2?

Think I've found the spacers on Jenvey site so may order them up soon.

Oh ok, is that why James did the Xtra kit? I would mind having the extra 50mm tbh, you reckon Jenvey will know what I want and sell them to me?

Really? James supplied mine with a tiny ramair filter rather than the normal piper cross filter?!

I've got one :smile: just hate the empty space above the gearbox mount. Could point it up towards the scuttle couldn't I:smirk:

That blue bend is just one I mocked up quick. I've order different degree bends in black to find the best option. Hopefully can straighten it out a bit.

Thanks bud :smile:

Thanks mate:smile: They are a great bit of kit :up:

I nicked the intake off my Leon to see what fit/size/look was like (it's a VWR intake which is basically a ITG air box) Was thinking along this line with the civic tyre R scuttle scoop. Have seen a Williams scuttle intake I'll have a look at tho's now Think to start with I'll use the filter...

Managed a few hours yesterday on the Clio. Firstly I move the main section of loom underneath the gear box mounting. Thought it would be easy but was a right pain in the arse. I then cleaned all my forge coolant hoses and push fitted them to make sure they all fitted nicely. This...

Chin up bud something will come along. Work always pops up for the people who want to go and get work :up: Car is coming along nicely. Hope you had a good Xmas despite everything.

On Christmas Eve I decided to bolt the RS2 inlet on to give me an idea of what else needed to be done. Was only planing to actually put the manifold on but got carried away and put the hole kit on. Placed the radiator in place to check clearance on the throttle body which was far to close...

I tried that but with the PMS pulleys the inner ribs are deeper compared to the out lip, so I couldn't get a belt that would stretch over the outer lip and then get good tension on the belt. Is that a cup alternator Tom?

Thanks mate, the bay was proper filthy lol I tried it with out the PAS delete kit but it look like the belt would catch the water pump (hard to explain) but it would run round the top of crank pulley and under the water pump, then the belt that run off them bottom off the crank pulley up to...

Engine went back in today :cool: Before it did tho I gave the engine bay a good clean Before After Fitted the 1.2 heat shield with new nuts aswell. Next was to address the alternator setup. I took a chance and order the PMS lightweight pulley kit with PAS delete kit a little...

Oh b****cks. Will have to have a rethink now then. Thanks for the heads up.

Because race car :stig:

Not done much to the Clio till tonight. Had a massive tidy up around the car and carried on getting the engine ready to put back in. Finished the alternator mounting and figured out the belt I needed. Need to get a new mounting bolt that goes through the alternator as its too long. I also dug...

Sorry lol, I didn't finish what I was typing for some strange reason in that post. I meant did you have a rough idea of when your'll have them finished lol? Price not to fused lol as I was happy to pay the PMS price lol.

Are they going to be made of billet like the PMS kit? And do you have a rough idea? This is the last piece of the puzzle for my rear beam but in no rush

This is interesting. I was literally just hovering over the buy now button on PMS website till I got offered a McDonalds!

Started today off pretty well, Changed the steering rack bushes for me black powerflex set. Took a little while as my 17mm socket fell into the subframe 😧 Old bushes Then dragged my engine out the other garage and started putting it together Torqued the flywheel and clutch up...

Not really. Finally got my parts from Renault so can start finialising stuff for the engine to go back in. Need to fill the rack boot with grease, change the rack bushes, fit flywheel clutch and box and finish my alternator setup then swing inter lump in. Need to get on with it as my mate wants...

Awesome work so far. Where did you get that breather plate/coil pack mount from?
