Megane 2.0 bottom end, 1.8 16v head, Kent cams, vernier pulleys, Gunnerchip. Its nowhere near as quick as my old williams. I don't want to waste money on this engine if its a pup (only just bought the car) when I can just lob £2k at a decent conversion and go fast from the outset.
Ktec for example, £2500 for engine/box/brakes and fitting.
Fitting/setting up of Bodies on my car: £2000 at least. Plus a new box.
My engine would be at its absolute limit at 180hp, the 172 engine would be comfortable and perfectly reliable at that power, with a massive scope for more.
PMSL! this is for a different thread! But i'm just going by another thread in the project section where a guy said that his air feed was to be as high up the front as possible so the air would be colder.
Either way, my opinion doesn't count for s**t. You are clearly far more talented than I...
Len, I work 70 (ish) hours a week mate, by the time I've learned how to remove a gearbox, it will qualify for the antiques roadshow! lol
There is some truth in that, however, There is no other manufacturer that spend so much money on Trackdaysetc. The club/community with Renaultsport is the...
Everybody i've ever spoken to who has had bodies has had some trouble of some description at some point.
I cannot be bothered with the aggro.
I want to get in, drive, then park up.
I have a Clio Valver with a 2.0 Engine. Bottom line, its not fast enough.
I want a 172 conversion but is there anyone reputable who can do it? I don't want a bodge job, I want it to look and drive factory standard.
I already have brakes/suspension etc, just need the engine and box.
Any...
If it was me, with the position of that filter, i'd fit a small length of pipe and a Morrette twin headlight to the N/s and have the cold air going straight in...
pm MATT BLACK on here. He owns ''All Renault Spares'' (I think thats what its called)
I ordered an engine off him at 10am and it came within 24 hours. Top bloke.
I awoke this morning to a lorry revving its engine outside my house, an when I looked out, I saw a scrap lorry moving my neighbours clio.
The alternator went on it ffs!!! And now there is a lorry picking it up with a massive claw type thing!
What a bloody waste! I'd have had that and earned...
Fans only work on fastest setting, and will only blow out luke warm air.
Revs sometimes sit at 2000rpm and car needs to be switched off for 20 seconds or so to reset it.
N/S/R is nocking. Could this be a shocker? How can I tell??
Cheers for any advice.
