First post!
Hi everyone!
Already know a few of you from the RTOC days i've attended with DJINUK, and always always adored the renault 5 GTT, however ive just started a new job and dont wanna blow it all on a 5 straight away, but fancied a change from my usual Drift cars so started looking at c1j engined vehicles..and DJ managed to find a decent one nearby My real name is Matt, im 23, live in Swadlincote Derbyshire (yeah its a ****hole but its my ****hole) and ive recently purchased a Clio GTT Conversion
Im not gonna bull**** and say i know everything about everything cus i honestly dont, i've had boosted cars in the past, both FWD and RWD, and ive had carb'd cars too, but never anything like a c1j engine, so i dont really know a great deal about them, other than what DJ has spoken about, so yeah, im pretty much useless right now haha
The car is a K reg, non sunroof model, in black, with a totally standard GTT lump, alternators dead but the gals ex boyfriend (arron with a white 5 GTT in notts) has one i can have (very nice of him) to get it up and running again
It has been stood for a little while so has no MOT or tax, got a smashed passenger side window and door locks mangled from an attempted break in, and needs a bit of welding, so its basically gonna be a project for a little while... with the great help and expertise of some good mates, and tuning from DJ to aim for around 170 BHP (i hope) on the standard T2 turbocharger, but a larger FMIC, and some DIY carb tuning
Anyway, im taking collection of it a little later on tonight, so i will try and start a build thread and update it when its had progress, and in the meantime heres a couple of my past cars..(ive had a lot)
