20vt has been done loads of times. As above, custom engine mounts, shafts, exhaust, wiring/ecu, hoses, fuel system etc. Budget 10k if you cant fabricate stuff yourself. Wouldnt bother personally if you cant do the work yourself.

If reusing same clutch stick it back together. Its bedded into the flywheel surface.

Id run them personally, they dont weigh much. V6 has them doubled up each side iirc, i have same setup on my trophy.

Re used worse without issues. If same clutch is going back on wouldnt bother.

I have an ipod nano connected to my alpine head unit in the extra van, still works after all these years. Itunes was dogshit though, never liked it

Updates. Fired the orange clio up to move it, to get the breaker megane 225 out. Starts up as usual and idling for a couple of mins in usual chuggy fashion from cold, its never ran great from cold but has been like that for 45 thousand miles. I hear idle pick up suddenly and smooth out, and...

Keep us updated, be interesting to see whats at fault.

Got the same one from Aliexpress for £28 delivered recently. Decent

Updates. Blue dci passenger rear drum brake started making a right squealing the other day. Brake pedal was still ok ish but not as sharp as it had been and handbrake was a bit w**k. This is usually due to one of the below issues as i have been there before on several different cars over the...

Hard to say without looking. Basically, solid red immob light means key is recognized but communication between ecu and uch is not working. last time i fixed similar issues, it was knackered wiring on the engine loom. I would start by checking the white engine bay plug for corrosion. Then check...

I have no idea now being honest as done it years ago. Was a common size so could have been 9mm, measure the tails to check.

Hello mate. I used the fittings that came with the car..measure up what you need and from what i recall universal adaptors for the master to push fir are easy to find.

Updates. Tdlr - car number 9 arrives Some of you might have noticed that the passenger side arch on my yellow megane r26 is rusty. Mk2 meganes dont rust?! They do when they have had a new rear qtr fitted badly in the past and its full of bog. Ive been looking for a solution for ages. I found...

Cheers mate! Had a look through the gopro footage and it was pretty crap sadly. I only put it on later on in the day and it was red flags every 2 mins. In and out of the pitso_O

Ive seen a few people cut the stub axle flush with the beam instead of removing fully, might be an option if no access to a press.

Use a cerakote ceramic trim wipe on the seatbelt buttons. Id be suprised if they did not come up like new.

Most garages wont have the ability to code airbag out unless renault specialists/correct software. Not sure where you are based, but i can recalibrate it, im in the North East if anywhere near.

Updates The blue dci seemed a bit slower and black smokey recently, bit intermittent as sometimes fine. Not sure if it was actually slower or felt slow after a week of driving the r26 fast as fcuk everywhere at Spa/Germany, but yeah thought it was worth a quick look at. Stuck torque on it and...

255 thou on last expired mot and needs work, right up my street that. Tempted :LOL:

Airbag is easy to sort, get it coded out with can clip instead of resistor. Black cruise one can prob be repaired with a bit of soldering.

Michelin ps5 would be my choice. Ps5 wear well and good grip in wet and dry conditions.

Much better. Hate that soft touch stuff when its worn.

Updates Mrs was out in the blue clio yesterday and i needed to go out. Id normally jump in the r26 but its got no gearknob on it as its at the trimmers. Rest are sorn apart from the orange dci which is in limp. Best fix it eh!? Usual fault stored when scanned with clip. I bought a new...

£550 is reasonable enough for a brand new cat back.

Renault extra van are 24mm torsion bars, im sure they are more or less identical to the grp a. Not easy to find these days. Im sure kangoo mk1 bars are 26 or 27mm from memory. No idea if they will fit.

As above either bend the actuator rod or give the bracket a kiss with the hammer in a vice, wont take much.

What do you reckon to the diesel oil pump? I see a few places selling it as an upgrade.

Just had this one done by Otto retrims for my megane. Mega quality.

Updates Hit the switch last week on the turbo and a nice new Pulsar g25 660 arrived today. Still need to source a couple of small items but almost ready to fit. Prepare for takeoff in 2026 ;)

Probably is. Its listed for some obscure brand of car but was cheap for bosch motorsport so not arguing :LOL:
