lol no someone found it a good idea to reshape my rear end. Now ive got a ford fusion courtesy car! jokes! 1.4 turbo diesel. lol it redlines at 5000, and thats pathetic even if it is a diesel. It gets slower from 4000 revs onwards is wierd. well the kit might be selling for 30 buck so im all...

hmm all probably true guys and hands up only 18 so dont know much atm. Im all for constructive criticism but pointless comments are just the common unwelcome problem on this forum. When I come out of uni with a mech eng masters you can all suck my dick. Thanks to those with something useful to...

ok thanks edde, theyre only a few quid ill buy both and just see what one fits

Anyone know how many different types there are? I need to replace one but im unsure what car they came from (were used to upgrade a 1.4), I think it was an earlier one - maybe 92, any ideas? cheers

might colour in the white bits black

the filter looks a bit mangled in photos, and geez I just realised how much i need to sort my bumper out lol! at least the grill can go back in now :D

Yeh I used to have the pipe going to the grill aswell. I know, I only really did it just to make use of the filter as I couldnt sell it, luckily its summer so shouldnt be tooo much of an issue. If the filter does die i'll just chuck it and get a new foglight. pics to follow...

Was bored yesterday and meant to be revising :S so decided to make myself a custom cold air feed induction kit. Basically got a panel filter froma mk1 1.2, (bought wrong 1) which was just rectangular, so perfect for cutting to size for a fog light. removed the foglight, gutted it so there...

they know everyones going to buy one, fairplay to them... lol

cheers edde. in the garage today so i'll soon find out. can only expect the worse though...

Yesterday, went to start the car and nothing happened. Its like all of a sudden the battery was completely dead. So I jumped it, the car starts when jumped (just) but the battery light flickers on and off all the time. Then on low revs pulling away the car stalled again. and needs to be jumped...

get a mk1 1.4rt, that way if you do prang it racing your mates you wont lose a 2-3 grand car. also theyre nippy for a car at 18 and you wont be so worried about taking it around a few b roads ;D saving 5-6 grand for a 172-182 + insurance seems a bit steep? rsi's have 1.8 8v engines and go for...

sell it and get a mk1 rsi or alike? money u make should cover insurance.

£140 for 4 fitted and balanced :cool:

Ok thanks, great help. So were talking: engine, loom, ECU, radiator, cooling pipes, drivers side engine mount, gearbox - recommended probably best to sort out a donor car in that case, and I can make sure everythings running correctly. If anyone has a cheap RSI that drives and is...

bump can anyone else help clarify whats needed for the conversion?

oh ok :S looks like ill just take it dwn the garage and get them to look at it, tell me whats wrong, offer to fix it for a grand and then get someone else to do it then. reason im asking is i hate going down the garage, them going oooooo its a big job, its gunna cost you, letting them do it and...

err mechanically minded? if you mean a level mechanics yes ;) lol so a joint in the steering column - sounds nasty. looks liek another trip down the garage. if it is a joint, how difficult is it to replace yourself? and what you mean? mk1 clios are very reliable! :quiet: :cry: :cry:

im going to stick with an rsi lump, less stress on all the components i do leave and much cheaper than a 16v or willy conversion! thanks again can anyone else help out with confirming what needs changing?

okay thanks donsrno1 (sorry mate dont know your name!) i'll have a look on retrorenault so a definite so far is engine, ECU and loom i heard before the radiator needs changing also

I think I have someone to fit it for £100, a mate of a mate lol, im mainly interested in what is needed apart from the engine. I heard you can use the same driveshaft and gearbox etc but they wont last very long?? I really need someone who has done the conversion so they can say what needs...

lol or nearest offer :D no seriously anything helpful is great! its just if i said, how do you slap an rsi engine in an rt id get a load of contrasting opinions of wahts needed and whats not and people saying no, get a willy engine, theres no point and so on... so has anyone put an RSI...

lol the only reason you lot get annoyed at re-posts is becasue when someone does one you all go and waste your time slating them. just ignore them if its REALLY that awfull lol

Does anyone have a link to a detailed and preferably photographed step by step engine conversion thread on here or another forum or anywhre on the web??? (on an RT!) And if anyone on here has done this themselves what is a list of all the parts needed? Im just talking under the bonnet, not...
