Looking for some confirmation of id'ing all the relays in the engine bay. I need to work out which one is controlling the fuel pump but knowing the others would help too.
Cheers
After getting over the immobiliser issues that were plaguing me, I've now moved onto another issue.
Got the base map loaded onto the ecu, did a final level check and took the plunge to fire it up. Turned over a few times them on the 3rd try it fired up with a healthy roar then settled into a...
Need to insure my turbo 172 cup to run in the new engine and get it down to EFI Parts for mapping. Probably need about a months cover.
Anyone know who would offer this length of cover and what price I'd be expected to pay for the pleasure?
Right, here goes!
The car has been off the road (track) now for a good 18 months while I've been fitting a new engine and turbo setup.
All mechanical work is now done so went to load the base map onto my Adaptronic 420c ecu and noticed that I couldn't get power to the ecu. Checked the switched...
Been thinking of other options to going down the o2m route if the jc5 box gives up at my desired power level of 300+bhp.
Came up with the mk1 Focus RS box. It comes with a diff already and is reasonably strong with having all the internals shot penned. I know it would need custom shafts, new...
Not sure if anyone will know the answer to this but here goes.
I'm running an Adaptronic ecu and have the switched live coming from pin 29 from the stock ecu. For some reason this does not seem to be giving any voltage with the ignition on. The dash is lit up and the fuel gauge goes to the...
Just wanted to double check that the oil feed journals at either end of the camshafts both feed oil and the extra hole on the journal next to the dephaser is a drain from it.
Also, do both journals feed the entire inlet cam or does one feed the journals and the one at the dephaser feed end...
Can anyone confirm the wiring to the cigarette lighter? I want to use this for my gauges but am unsure of what the 3 wires are. I know 2 of them are for Live feed and earth but whats the 3rd?
I need a switched earth so hope the 3rd wire is that.
Cheers.
Very sad news. Waste of a life and a career in a moment of madness. Thoughts go to the family!
No deffence for Wrathal but can't understand why cyclists still cycle on the road not wearing a helmet.:nono...
Thinking about what options there are for 4 pots that will fit under 15" wheels.
1) wilwoods?
2) megane 197/225 brembos?
3) 406 brembos?
4) anything else?
Also, what size of spacers would be needed for each to make them fit both my et37 superlegera and 2118's?
Cheers for any help!
I'm going to be giving the interior a quick spray with rattle cans. Was going to use halfords stuff but Carplan paints seem a lot cheaper. Anyone know if they are any good?
Not looking for a work of art, just clean and tidy.
Cheers
If the dephaser solenoid is disconnected, is there any oil still supplied to the dephaser?
I plan to remove the dephaser but don't want oil leakingalong the camshaft to the pulley.
Cheers
I won't be using vvt on my new engine and don't have the solenoid attached to the rocker cover so leaving a hole.
Whats the best way to fill the hole left with no solenoid?
Looking to make a fuel rail out of billet fuel bar as there doesn't seem many options for the f4r. Whats everyone else done for aftermarket rails?
Any pics?
Is there only one type of megane 225 crank pulley as I'm trying to order one from Renault and they are asking for a reg no. as they say there is more than 1 type?
Cheers
Looking for a favor as my engine is out the car just now, could someone measure the distance between the head and the front cross member. I need to know how much space I have for an inlet manifold without having to remove it which would mean losing the bonnet catch.
Thanks!
A mate is wanting to change his troublesome auto box on his '02 f4r megane coupe with a manual box.
Does anyone know if a jc5 box would fit on and what would be required for the swap?
List as is would be:
JC5 box
Pedal box off a 172 with clutch cable
mounts?
driveshafts?
Anything else...
I'm looking at getting a custom inlet manifold made for my new turbo setup but wasn't sure how far from the head and at what angle to make the injector bosses. I have looked at a few designs and can obviously copy the original megane 225 inlet manifold position but is that the best place? Some...
Anyone interested in entering this at knockhill this year. Its Scotland's very own time attack series.

Hopefully my car will be ready and I'll give it a go.
Looking for some help on what the thickness and dimensions need to be for a bolt in cage. I have an OMP 6 point cage that has platforms for the main hoop but not for the rear or front legs. The middle hoop has the raised platform but I am presuming the front and rears are just plates welded to...
I have a standard link pipe from a megane 225 that is 2.25" dia and so can only presume the whole system on a megane is the same. What is the maximum power you would get from the car on a standard turbo with an exhaust of this diameter?
Also, roughly what are the power levels of 2.5", 2.75"...
