You'd be better off asking on Retro Renault.

nope as thats the only turbo the did!!

spax make lowering springs for them! and a set of 16's they look nice ;)

to be honest alot of the turbo's didn't come with the bonnets!?! either that or the brakes are crap! (more likely!) as turbo bonnets where about triple the price of std bonnets!!!!! LOL

most running gear is based on r18 i heard .
can you get both front and rear lowering springs from spax than ??
any links or ideas on prices ??:)


EDIT : found a set on europerformance.co.uk for 137quid , also got bilstein shocks
for them for £82quid a pair .

as you've found out

its a set of springs from spax (front and back)

and yep - most things about them are renault 18

btw - i've got a brand new, gen. renault set of front wings that i bought for mine - which i'm open to offers on!!! ;)

when i get back from the states i'll have alook around the sheds and see what i've still got kicking around

very tempting indeed ,i will give you a shout as soon as i find out whats going on
still trying to get the engine running which will determine the future of this car . it might be a breaker tbh :scared:

looking at the standard height i dont think 35 mm will do much to it in my opinion
needs to go lower . ant tips on that one ?? :p

also am i right thinking this car is supposed to run on unleaded fuel allright ?
