No not a problem at all mate, thanks, any criticism to improve it is welcomed! I know its a long one but there's a lot to list and it's a lot of money to spend on a car without a detailed advert
Thanks, appreciate it! That's a shame, the market on these is so fluid and seems to vary from car to...
Thanks for the kind words all, much appreciated!
Corrected, thanks for spotting it! I proof read it twice too lol.
I still need a daily car so I'm just downgrading to something cheaper hence where the new car comes in, the whole intention of the sale basically but I'll have a re-read later on...
As above, here's my M3 Coupe for sale as I've recently dropped back into the RenaultSport life with a Clio 200. Any questions please feel free to contact me on here or through the ad. It is advertised in various places so will be withdrawn at any time.
P.s. I think everything I could possibly...
As above please guys. Will the alternator off a 182 fit a 172 Cup with the aircon option fitted, the tensioner etc are the same setup but I'm unsure as to whether the alternators are the same, I haven't got a 182 one to hand to check part numbers on.
Need to know this ASAP so any help would be...
Ahh nice Kayzee, it was a bit overcast the day I took them annoyingly and starting pissing down just after I'd packed my camera gear up luckily, had no other choice fitting it between work etc but they weren't too bad, get even better ones when the weathers spot on! Cheers, you've got do it...
Cheers Danny. I can't stand reading crappy car ads, the amount of cars I've not bothered enquiring about down to a bad ad is unreal, if the owner can't write a good ad then I. My opinion thy don't really care about their car! People are spending a lot of money so I think why not be honest and...
Haha, well I've still got the Clio as my track toy and the M3 will start as a daily, note the word start, as I think it could end up being another track toy in time lol! Some serious ///M cars that knock about there, a few of them being lads I know and going out for laps in them this summer...
Cheers. Going for an E46 M3, had this for over a year as a daily and it truly is an awesome car and I've loved every minute of it but there's always a time to move on and it seems this is it.
Doesn't help that mates all around me are getting M3's too and I've been after one for as long as I can...
Cheers Fred, that is perfect, much appreciated as always! Engine and box are out and the engine's on a stand so easy enough to get to. Got new flywheel bolts etc, engine builder by trade so know the drill lol, decent bit of knowledge there for people searching in future.
As in crank seal, do...
I've had the dreaded leak from the rear main cap seals so I'm about to have it off, reseal it and re-torque it but I can't find a definitive torque figure anywhere for the bolts, does
anyone have this info please?
This applies mainly to the pro engine builders of the F4Rs or Renault techs as I...
I use PE2s on wet/dam/very cold track days and they are awesome, had so much confidence with them on when it was torrential rain at Snetterton and Brands in December.
I've just removed one from my 182, I can't imagine them
being much different tbh.
First off you'll have to remove any heat shielding/matting that sits in the way or at least pull it back so that you can gain access to the servo/ master cylinder etc.
Next remove the vac hose from the servo that...
How easy is it to remove the pedal box on a 182?
I'm guessing the mater cylinder etc comes with it too? With that in mind is it a job to do when the engines out or remove from the inside?
Any help would be much appreciated please peeps as I'm going to attack this later or tomorrow.
Cheers,
Grant
Ok cheers for that Chip, I get what you mean there.
Cheers Tony, I've just had a look through and found it, what i'm worried about is being an aircon model I'll need a new cup interior/ engine loom to run the non aircon box setup with controls, am I wrong in thinking this?
Also while I'm...
Right ok, well hopefully I won't have to drive it in bad weather, only times could be on track if it turns nasty but as Paprika said could always crack the windows a notch to help that, i normally do anyway as have the fans off for the majority of the time anyway.
RE the connector situation, is...
That is the same one that I was looking at. Does it keep the rest of the car demisted in general though Chip? That's my only worry tbh, I know the screen will be fine along as I direct them into the original ducting vents on the bulkhead but worried about side windows misting up.
Tweeks/ JJC...
Ahh ok, thats fair enough. Like I said my issue will be with space really and general tidiness inside the car, having had it all out like you said it doesn't weigh all that much at all, it's just awkwardly shaped and sized for fitting around a cage nicely...and in one piece for that matter I...
I have considered this too but I'm too sure on the reliability or hardiness of them. Maybe some people could shed some light on those too for me please :)
Regardless I'd still need something to demise the rest of the car really so need a heater/ blower unit of some kind.
Car is currently in full strip down mode ready for a cage to be fitted next week and I'm seriously considering getting rid of the standard heater box system and just swapping it out for one of the T7 motorsport heaters you can buy. One reason is space as I'm considering a Saxo/106 PAS conversion...
