[Fred@BTM]

[del]

damn thats outta the question then ! is there any other renault boxes that will just bolt on?

 

[Fred@BTM]

[del]

a g/box that will mate to the megane 225 engine and run in the 172 car! some1 said the clutch is hydraulic on the meg an i think its cable on the clio?? im plannin on droppin the 225 in my clio see!

 

[Fred@BTM]

yep you are correct the megane uses a hydraulic clutch

you can buy all my old stuff off me, i have an engine and gearbox with clutch and turbo, i can't be bothered to do the project now

you need engine mounts making and driveshafts etc etc

 

[del]

deffo sounds temptin mate determined to do the proj ova x-mas! can u give me a bit of info on the lump n a price?:approve:
cheers

 

[Fred@BTM]

gearbox is NEW (cost me £750)

engine was a development engine, its only ever been on the engine dyno at Renault France, so virtually new (currently stripped down for inspection/rebuild)

the head i have is a non VVT velsatis head

turbo charger is from a megane RS 225 (good for 280bhp at 1bar boost)

engine is ready to rock once built up


you'll be needing an after market ECU, engine mounts, driveshafts and cooling system (i have some new radiators i'll through in)

so wat engine is it exactly? is it 2ltr if so will my 172 vvt head go on it? u dnt know wat power its suppose to push etc? how much we lookin for the whole lot? an if its not the 225 lump will the 172 box fit it?

 

[Fred@BTM]

its a megane 225 block with a vel satis head, VVT makes no difference to power

your 172 head will go on, but then the turbo manifold won't fit the 172 head

the engine as it is will do 270bhp approx

Fred bought a lot of this stuff from me and i can vouch for it that most of it is BRAND NEW - all genuine 225 parts.

 

[del]

so how much we lookin money wise?

 

[Fred@BTM]

you can have the lot for (everything i have, inc spare heads and cams) for £800

 

[MATT BLACK]
