or you can use the original ECU and have a custom vag flywheel with 60-2 pattern teeth on the back, which is not that simple to do.. an yes, we have the drawing ;)

some recent updates: the adaptor plate is done, so are the hybrid mk5 gti/renault driveshafts (no pics of them yet) there are also 2 custom mounts that you'll see in the pics just ordered the 36-1 trigger wheel and sensor today. the trigger wheel will be bolted to the lower crank pulley once the...

pm you email address and I'll ask the owner for the latest details and keep you posted

yep^ you'll find scoff there too. he helped us a lot with our project

we are using a 02M 6 speed gearbox from a 1,8T seat leon. will post some pics soon enough when the box will be on the car (waiting for the clutch kit and flywheel for the moment) there is a GTT using the same combo (f4r engine plus vag box) in the UK (scoff's car, he's a member here too)

to better understand how the ET is measured check this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offset_%28wheel%29

et 36? no, the non cups 172's are et 48,5 (phase 2, can't remember ph1), the cup is et 38 so 10.5 mm wider on each side. and the trophy wheels being et 45 it means they give a narrower track than et 38 (the smaller the number- the wider the track) of course, trophy has different wheel hubs...

positive. negative offsets are quite rare

true LOL ;)

an extra 10 mm for example won't do that harm I guess though. 25 mm on each side... I don't know

curious to know what would be the excuse for renault not making the cars like this straight from the factory if it rides better (I'm not being sarcastic! just curious)

I had a bent damper shaft. that gave me smth like 1 degree neg on one side. changed both front shocks and it was fine after

on a clio, yes for the rear-> camber shims

standard top mounts will work with about any coilovers. and yes, the bolt spacing for the 172 is 54 mm

there are some videos on youtube showing exactly how to fit them. where did you get them from? I bought mine from Kamracing and fitted no problem.

I packed mine with black silicone. worked fine till now (done it one month ago)

top pic. they will expand more across the length than the width. easy to tell when trying to fit as they'll probably won't even go in if you don't file that area

ahhh..

I had mine painted with hammerite and not long after bought the DS2500 pads and had some bed-in sessions. the paint stayed there no problem. if it took that abuse than I suppose it's fine. painted them last summer and they're still fine

and weld the bush sleeves to the wishbones or they'll come out. been there..

there were some 182 wheels in the market section, can't remember how much they were. have a search, you'll find'em

don't do that unless your clutch is worn out. back in sept 09 I changed my clutch with a helix organic unit and the squeak came back 3 days after!

will do that at some point :)

my old reno 19 was fine though..

one thing bugs me. there are billions of cars using clutch mechanisms like ours, why aren't they squeaking? :mad:

well if there's a squeak maybe we should find some type of grease that lasts more than a couple of days. let the search begin.. so, lithium spray grease doesn't work (you did spray in the areas mentioned by the OP right?)

what grease did you used?

thx a lot! the message I'm given is smth like "the image exceeds your quota by............ click here to view your attachments"
