thanks ashy, still looking for info on the change into a clio though, great help though buddy

get yourself a haynes manual for the volvo 440 turbo and the clio rsi, layout both engine wiring diagrams next to each other, and compare, this is all i did, works fine (as long as you know how to read em').

 

[liamrsi]

kool, got a volvo one, ill get a clio one, just to go into a bit more depth, what did u guys do with your front engine mount as everyone keeps tellin me different things but all reply again and say they didnt work???

 

[clio_rsi]

ive just finishd making a custom mount that bolts onto the block behind the alternater instead of bolting onto the head, cuz i kept snapping it when i put me foot down. also made it out of 1/4'' steal, so should strong enough. lol.

 

[liamrsi]

did you put this onto the enginew whilst it was out or when it was in?

I could do with a copy of this wiring too as a friend of mine has only got the wiring to do and it's almost finished!
