loads of options. depends how ghetto you want to go. Volvo bits, Laguna bits, 172 cup setup..... Even seen the use of bits off a ford which was slightly weird
172 5HED
MK2 Clio DCI steering rack
volvo, 172 cup aux set-up
not a bad job to do.. You would need a simlear / same set-up as foxy and whaitey
Similar set up in what way pal?
Thanks for the info, will dig it out!
Confused as to the Volvo bit? Would that be the alt? What model volvo would it be mate? And obv the cup aux belt once fitted yeah?
Clio RS 172 2004
I want to remove my A/C as well
172 Race Car
Please dont pm me, i must get 10 a week about this.
If your removing pas and a/c you can get an alternator and brackets from an 'F' series engined 1.7 Volvo 440 of around late 80's, early 90's vintage. Just the alternator will require an 850 belt. (Some 340 Volvo's had this engine and didnt have pas but are hard to find) You dont want the brackets from an a/c equipt volvo as they are different. If you want to be neat you can use the top bracket from a Mk1 Laguna as this is a bit smaller than the volvo one but identical in mountings.
You can use the volvo pas pump as well but that requires custom pipes to be made up. (and a longer belt) Clio alternator wont fit without alot of hasstle. We have used a saxo electirc/hydraulic pump on our race car and joint the pipe to the clio ones.

Nice

no, sadly not, but there's versions of the k4m without AC anyway
TrackCar & F30 330d
Well if your removing AC and PAS then you loose 16kg's thats like Half a tank of fuel (1 ltr is less than 1 kg)
So it would feel like you only had half a tank when you actally had a full tank.
Not sure if that made any sence but meh!
Beer is bad!!
tbh i felt the differance by removing the ac and the lightweight pullys from pure motorsport
Frees the engine up abit more, less things to rotate and drag along i imagine.
I dont really use mine, windows down and noise FTW
