Indeed it does!

Did the wiper motor work originally?

Well it's either the loom, squib or the motor. Disconnect the plug at the wiper motor and see if it still blows the fuse.

Have you trimmed down the wiring loom? The ph2 squib could also be your issue potentially.

Was still hung over! Ffs! Lol

@Russ_16v wirefest!More to come!

Stick your head near the passenger front wing when the engines running. Hear a ticking noise? It's the carbon canister. This is possibly what your hearing.

Ah right ok. That's a lot of grief though tbf! You would've been better off fitting the full Meg 225 engine and box. That way you get a stronger box and a engine that's designed to be boosted from the off. Just my opinion though of course.

I've had a quote for £1004.23 to do a gearbox rebuild mate. And that was just the parts......... For reference a recon box from Renault can be had for £900 with your old box taken in exchange.

Does it stop the noise as soon as your out of 2nd and into 3rd? Or does it do it in all gears? Have you checked the oil level on it at all? How long since the oil was las changed? Does it do it if you take it out of gear whilst the cars moving? I'm going to say it's gearbox bearing related...

What sort of niggles have you been having mate?

I can supply the flywheels if your interested @sburrell93

Lol!

What's your point?! Lol

Yes mate. It's a bastardisation of a 172 cup and 197 loom. I've just removed a lot of s**t that's not needed.

You need to splice into the original wiring harness mate basically. You only need to splice into certain wires though for your chosen ecu to do the magic.

Regards the brembos, if you need to justify them to yourself, you'll reduce your unsprung weight which will benefit the handling. I'm going for a custom 295mm setup with bells and rotors to reduce this further. @Phase1sr had some bells available recently iirc that @Ph1 Tom had made up, if you...

Yes but you'll need to wire it all to suit. If your going to that level you might as well rip all the standard wiring out and rewire the entire car. Alternatively run it as a piggyback with the standard ecu and retain the uch etc.

You need to measure the centre to centre distance of the 2 bolts mate, but looking at your picture you have non cup packed suspension, so 54mm centres. This is the most common one for suspension options tbh. The cup packed suspension would have 60mm spacing from centre to centre.

That looks awesome mate!

I'm just going through this now as I need a few parts to do a refresh on a box, so your misfortune has been my gain in this instance, as I would've ordered the large overhaul kit!

Well that doesn't make sense! At all! Going from the gearbox code you sent me, that should've had all the correct parts in it. The jc5 130 has the sealed bearing and bearing/seal arrangement for the input shaft (which you are missing). It's only the main shaft that has the taper bearings so...

I think it's another much of a muchness tbh mate personally.

The plate? No mate Meg is different.

Injects the fuel with the air around the nozzle. Can improve the air/fuel mix

I've been under the bonnet of a Meg R26 today and the breathers have a one way valve fitted to stop the pressurisation when on boost.

Yeah they've got the blue tag mate. That's the other thing that made me suspect they were 225 injectors!

The Jenvey setup will see you gain a bit more torque and the AT Power kits look pretty because they're cnc machined and have a cool design for the throttle cable pull. That's about all there is to say mate really. It's much of a muchness. It's only when you start looking for proper horsepower...

The price led me to my thought process on them being Meg ones. Lol! Just make sure that if they alter the responsiveness of the oe dbw tb they don't go bonkers mate. In the gen90 you can alter this, but it'll have the car kangarooing over a bumpy road as your foot will be constantly on/off if...

They will fit under 2118's from what I've seen mate, but you'll need to run 280mm discs. The only person that offers the brackets for the 280 conversion is Chris Powell on here, but I don't think he's doing anymore for the time being. I'm having mine custom made.
