A bit of a comedown from your previous 5's :scared:
Nice colour though ;)

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
yes bill big come down, not a nice clean well looked after one.... thats why it needs help.
White is by far the greatest 5 colour ever ;)
Plus its got a dump valve ile take it off and you can pop it in your dump valve shop ;)
Really wanna make this a nice clean 5 again

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game

If you wanted a shed of a white 5 I'd have sold you the Ghost, for the bargain price of £5k :D

You know Etcha sketch rolling road is da best still was the most powerful 5 that day @ the R&R session with all the probs showing on the R&R not a bad result for 16psi either. God damm water injection damping the spark big time and massive overfueling with the MSM carb. You guys all know things changed straight after that session water injection dumped, MSM carb ditched, VNT setup properly to have full boost @ 2800rpm and 24psi of fanimold boost, and a properly fettled standard venturi carb for the boost and setup using my LM-1 (How I do miss that engine now).:burnrubber:

Well if this conversion doesn't work out for me I may consider turboing it sooner than planned or going back to C1J to the same spec as my last engine.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Ok the chap came to give me the quote, top bloke.
He worked in africa alot of his life from what i gatherd, and is amazing at body pannle fabrication etc, meaning he does not like to waste any materials.
He assesed the rust.
- Rear quarters
- sill spots
- rear Arch
- windscreen surround
He was very confident he could fix all the rust with out the need for new pannles.
He also said about paint types, one is a base with a top clear coat, the other is 2 solid coats. he said solid would be the best option, and the results are not noticable??
Anyway he quoted 3k for the whole job, thats the welding and spraying the car inside and out/ includeing the bay.
So as 3k was kind of my budget max im happy. Going on the work they have done it looks awsum. so i hope mine turns outthe lickety split

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
:agree: well done, what you doing about interior? You going for minty oe? & Engine bay or for something different?
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
In two minds, engine is secret squirrel, although it will be a C1j in situ ;)
Interior, im not sure. I love the stripped out look and feel, but for a mint interior all i need is a new drivers seat and passenger side rear door card

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
with regards to rear 1/4s , mine are also rotton, but i decided to go for new panels even though they could be saved as ideally it looks the easier option, and they are still avalible from renault. Anyway best of luck matey, sure it will look spot on if its an old boy.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Ok... been down the body shop, the guy is actualy a work horse he just dont stop until he needs to. I found out today he is 64, and has serious heart problems in 3 months he is in to have loads of parts fitted to his heart, he shouldnt be working but loves it so much he carrys on...
Any way i pointed out a few runs to him and they will be sorted.
Welding and rust work is actualy amazing, i think he made sills up from scratch for me and did them because he said the others look like they would rust. That was at no extra fee.
and he found several bits of rust i didnt find and sorted them for no extra.
Around the windscreen and windows are like new!!! hahaha i almost collapsed when i saw them.
I just hope in daylight its as good as it looks, bumpers and kit all sprayed although im leaving them off the car so i can do under arches etc with out worrying about killing the kit.

it looks awsum, 2 or 3 bits im not happy with. But he said take it away fit all the car up inside, engine etc '' your bound to scratch it or somthing'' once its running bring it back and ile put right the bits that are wrong.
+he will do a proper polish and wax on it.
Also he and the owner said in the day light ile undoubtable find more bits that aint right. so just make notes of them and they will rectify any wrong bits.

Its all about apreciating the welding/fabricating of the guy!!!
remember the rust guys?

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
If you're trying to avoid engine bay scrathes, wack the engine on the subframe and bolt it in from underneath (the front end is stupidly light, I can lift it. That's unless you're super skilled in the art of lowering an engine into a car.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game

What why does it? i could build loads up on that. but lifting the 5 hmmm thats an epic task
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
You'd be suprised how light the front end is. although it's liftable by 1 man, i'd stick the engine/subframe on a couple of skateboards if you're poor, or a proper wheely board and lift the car with an engine crane and lower the shell over the running gear gently.

Well I've got the headlights off of The Ghost. They've only been on there for 1000 miles, ish, and they've been run with protectors on them, so they're as good as new. Now I wasn't going to sell them, however..........

Did you use POR 15 for this? Looks good. I want to repaint the whole underside of my 5 soon and have been looking at Silver POR 15 with a top coat of 'Hardnose' in yellow.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
por 15....:guitarhero:
:agree:
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
yep por 15.
dont get the white core with hardener its ****y and water like.
will take ten coats for good finish.
black is the best. and it lasts for ever.. ive painted subframe... under car.. loads of parts and only used 1/4 of a tin and its a small tin
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Where's the best place to buy por15 ?

The subframe is just a hole and so is the matting point on the shell you could prob get away with non renault locking nut's, washer's & bolt's matey of a higher tensile.

Note to self... Do in future make sure that you seal the POR 15 can lid.
If you dont jrp you will find it dried up into a rock hard ball in the can next time you come to use some.
Hoe much do people pay on average for powerder coating.. for example a sump, timing chain cover and a few other bits

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Ok after being back in hosp, and having torn another disk... im 4 weeks even worse off my consultant said now. more bolts ehh
So what better time to sit in my wheel chair and devise a plan.
I will have my car on road in next 3 months.
People if you have parts that are not needed let me know i may have some cash to give.
For example i need a mint steering wheel and boss.
The rubber bit that sits between the rear engine mount the plate and the gear box.
I need mint ph1 door cards
Nice buckets and low side mounts
Black harneses....
i could go on...

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Neeed some help.
Toying with the idea of taking the 5 total back to o.e interior wise.
Also make the exterior look o.e so ile just store the cup wheels away. and get one of my speed line sets on.
Question is should i keep going, cage it, harneses seats etc like ive always wanted.
or do i make the interior as mint as i possibly can standard wise.
I really am stuck between the two... thing is i have drilled the holes for the cage already, so they would require welding up.
hmmmm help appreciated

Update, Electrics all checked and working ok woooooo :)
A few issues, the cars in neutral according to the gear stick, yet its in gear.
No 3rd 4th or 5th
At a guess just fiddle with the gear linkage?
Apart from that just gotta sell cage and cup wheels and ile finnish her off :)

At least it is wanting to turnover :) before you replace the tdc john try another relay by the aei to see if that helps give spark if not then get another tdc. Remember matey if there is no spark there will be no fuel. The flywheel wheel will trigger the tdc which will then give spark which will also send a signal via the aei to the fuel pump relay which will activate the fuel pump.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Running.
A few small hitches, the odd leak... looks like ive corrected all those.
Fan not working/comming on.
Tryed bridging connection but nothing.
Tested the fan on a live and it works.... thinking connections, tryed different relays etc still nothing...
I would have thought that bridging the fan as in the way i would wire it to inside the car for over ride would work, but nothing.
Anybody handy with electrics etc, as id like to leave te car running for ages just to see how it heats cools, runs, vlah blah
Any ideas?

If it was me i would unplug the fan then bridge a piece of wire to the earth connection and just wedge it back into the plug and then try shorting the earth connection to the battery and see if it comes on when upto temperature, if it does then you know you have an earth problem somewhere, if it still does not work try the same but this time all you need to do is connect the live to the battery, you do not need to wait for it to heat up and see if it comes on, if it does then there is a live problem, then its a case of tracing back wards, a little bit of a bodge but at least if your careful you can do this with no specific experience or tools.

Im over that, i have to be just like when R5gttraider mugged me off. End of the day id of ended giving said parts away lol.
Just work stopped paying me now, still not deemed fit enough, wont be long till they sack me... no money... xmas on the way... using betting account to live so now thats being hammerd and not in a betting sense.. and that was really what funded the 5 in the first place.
Not to mention the help from all my friends from this place, and those who have helped, im extremly greatful.. it has not gone un noticed, i will be there when you need.
Its because of these people ile keep going on the 5, or it would be a huge let dow to all helping hands involved.. ive learnt who is helpful and a good friend, also learnt that alot of people just mean well non stop... and those who dont.. well let them be nasty and take things just hope you get caught by a meanie one day... if i caught you, you know id forgive instantly there for i guess thats why i find my self mugged off so often.
be it not for most people, even those tiny comment on this thread with nice things to say, id of given up long ago.
Ta folks

I get the impression your gonna cherish the car big time, hence talk of carcoons etc in other threads. In which case i'd imagine o.e. all the way, and being as proud as anything at shows of how it looks, and the comments you'll get back.
However, if you get a little bored.....which we all do, fitting a sidey is an hours job max!
at the end of the the day a sidey does sound good. Keep your options open.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
how do mate. I dont know you personally but I cant believe how much hard work you and your friends have put into this car! It looks amazing!!
Ive bought a red 5 GT turbo myself with the intention of doing the same thing but could only dream of it being as stunning as yours! Shows what you can do if you put your mind to it and have friends like yours to help see it through
Dont give up on this mate, its a credit to you. Keep up the good work and I hope everything works out for you with your back problems, work etc.
Cheerio! :)

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Cheers alan, its a working nightmare process.
Update
So thanks to phils help the oiler cooler is in situ, as per pics.
Getting the front bumper on is the biggest mission ever. After chipping the paintwork and craking the arch.... dont ask how, but barley noticable.
I found the tow bar to be bent, so i bent it down back where it should be.
But i went to remove it, two bolts one for the engine mount and the other solely for the tow bar. The engine mount is tight as arse holes, but the actual tow one is a tad loose will this matter? I doubt it but could be wrong.
Also last night was a good crack.. 5five 5's in the drive was a good effort! almost a T2, nice to see new faces and all are more than welcome back :)

simple is not the word at all... just back in from the garage.
Looks like the dash will be comming out, one of the connectors that sits just above the heater matrix was missing. so fan was never gonna work.
I tried popping connectpors on the fan to a switch, but with the limited room at the point in which the fan sits in it didnt work.
Now ive destroied the fan, so new interior fan required!!...
Hmmmm dash out unless i can come up with somthing/a good idea

John, for all the time we've been chatting on PM I've never looked at this thread, in fact I didn't even know it was a rebuild project, lol. So I've just gone through all 9 pages to bring myself up to speed with what's been goin' on since April last year....
Well, I love coming to a project thread to find almost everything is done and I don't have to wait long to see the finished product :laugh:

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
She's looking dead good Jerp. I'm going to have to get my finger out on mine. I can't tell very well on this little phone screen but lowered rear and front kept standard?
Just a little tip I discovered for cleaning black"dimple" finish plastics, apply a small drop of olive oil on a microfibre cloth rub in well then rub off. It sounds mad but does work. It won't work miracles with old faded plastics but will clean old polish etc away..

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
At the request of several people, here follows an update.
To those of you that are actualy botherd, and for those of vain interest and following this cars progress, MOT time is around the corner.
The car is now as it stands (due to hard work by the following James5, Dave..H, philr5t, Fido's got a raidar) Mot ready more or less... some more gear box oil and its ready..
All the tiny small bits have been getting done over the past few weeks to which i owe thanks to the above mentioned for helping.
Once Mot'd (sat 17th 9am) and assuming it passes the tracking set up, it will be road tested fully, then sat until monday 19th when it goes to the body shop for the few finnishing touches... this is assuming it passes mot.
What with some rather testing times over the past year, back opperations and the like.... silly drug things blah blah, i just wanna say thanks to all involved in helping; wether it by giving of parts, advice etc etc and for those close keeping me on the straight and narrow... even to the extent they talked about building an engine for my wheel chair.
If it was not for certain people on here my car would still be the 300 quid wreck it was on day dot.. not the multiples or k it now stands at.
cheers chaps.:agree:

The only things that can go wrong at MOT is the wheel bearings and co2. They should do the head light alignment for you.

A few pictures.
Had a few issues. Main one being the alternator is KAPUT, car would start then run up road, idle then die.... then not turn over just click.... leave it 10 mins its just about starts.
Put volt meter across alt running and got 11.26 v and same across battery, our guess alternator....
any way once thats done, all shall be ok...
only other issue was heater matrix pipe blew off and slight missing at about 3k revs,
blah blah, blah blah

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
re: the alt / battery prob. be sure to check and re check all earths are good ;)
I had an rac guy tell me 130miles from home, that my battery and alt are kaput. only to get relayed home and find my earth had came loose slowly over a couple of weeks untill the bolt feel out and was no longer attached to anything :(
fixed that and still have the same battery and alt that the guy tested and said was at fault.
missfire ? or just bogging down ?

Handbrake light system on the 5 is pretty simple there is a switch on the hand brake that sends a signal when the handbrake is placed in the down position to the dash to turn off the dash light, I am assuming either the cable wasn't put back on for the handbrake off switch or the switch is broken (the cable is lilac/ purple in colour with a spade connection on it) or it got knocked off when the carpet was put back in.
With ref to the alternator - Check the earths are actually to bare metal and not on paint so maybe a case of removing a couple to check and sanding down then putting the cable back with bolt and going voer the top of them with some of your por15 to give it some protection. Maybe worth putting an extra earth in place you can never have to many earths but they need to go to bare metal and from a bare metal part of the engine could just be due to the car being painted that nothing is going to a bare metal part of the car.
3k missfire could be a few things, spark plug gap incorrect, knackered dizzy + Rota arm, HT leads, Main HT leads, AEI, Fueling related, Timing (Dizzy gear), TDC.
With ref to the heater matrix pipe just get it on an tighthen it up :laugh:
But top work guys I take it you done the gearbox fluid now? Shame I couldn't be with you all yesterday :(

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
FAIL
001. near side front (no beam image) needs adjusting (HOW?)
002. offside front drives seat insecure (after a total tug)
003. off side rear fuel system leaking (WILL NEVER FILL UP AGAIN)
004. exhaust emmissions too high(DONE)
005. engine idle speed to high (DONE)
006. offside front tie rod nut loose. steering locking device insecure (DONE)
007. offside lower ball joint nut/bolt loose locking device ineffective (DONE)
008. offside rear inner wheel arch not welded to outer sill...(tiny gap)
009. nearside front inner sill one little hole
010. near side outer sill not welded to inner suspension comp (tiny amount)
Thing is i didnt bother with inner seals as they all appeared fine!...
I HAVE THE FECKING NEEDLE
although the things wrong are very small in comparison to things that potential could be wrong.
Big thanks to all in volved to this point, your hard work has shown, and these silly fails are my piss poor fault.

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Good luck with it geez, sure you will have it sorted in no time :agree:

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
At least we have a list :) Easy fix matey alot of that unfortunatly I can't weld (yet I plan on doing a course thus year) but I can sure sort out the rest of it and the emissions but I am sure we can get it to run leaner just need an emissions tester kit or a wideband to make sure fueling is find. Did they say were the leak of fuel was actually coming from at the rear?

No, what you did was spot on. Iam sorting bits out as we speak... hmmmmmm gotta get it to body shop wednesday, should be a fun drive

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Ok, i have done a fw of the bits, track rod, ball joint, emissions, idle speed.
Well i think ive done teh emmisions assuming the gas o tester is accurate.
Need to get a small thing for the drivers seat front screw, as the tiny block has gone missing. (not the big black things for the rear bolts on drivers seat)
Just burnt feck out my hand, saw heater matrix hose popping off again (after tightning) and as i poped hand down to nick it up it popped off! CNUT!
anyway im getting there

With ref to the fuel tank leak I remember markeyb saying he got some kind of putty that he used on his fuel tank to stop leaks and it worked fine. Not to sure that Halfords will do this but a local motor factor may.
Could be a case of getting it online and getting it delivered and when you pic your 5 up putting it on then

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Drive to body shop...
1. A new oil leak has sprung, and its a real leak not a drip. (possible the oil pressure sender thingy)
2. gearbox oil leak still... where the feck is it comming from.
3. need tank repair putty stuff!!! i belive the bung is to blame for my leak, lost alot of fuel on the road.
Apart from that it drives real nice, just needs some tracking doing.
Looks like when i get it back (errrrrrhhh) i'll remove all hoses from teh bay and find the leaks :)

Yeah it is very OE other than the radbourne decal strips in fact the new owner not JRP has refurbed the alloys and it needs a repair to the passenger door as someone tried to break in to it but other than that it is perfect runs like a dream and it so quiet and the engine sounds fantastic.

The strips aren't Radbourne decals, they were put on a few of the late cars in serveral dealships in the South, not sure about the rest of the UK.

Yes I know it came from Radbourne, I was only saying the Decals aren't a Radbourne one off. Several dealers did it to the last lot of cars they had to try and make them look like a limit edition.

:agree:when i brought my car from cgb he said they did do this to a few of the 5 turbos because they were takin a while to sell on the forecourt and was abit of a problem to get rid of.adding the stickers it wouldd make them apealing to the eye:cool:and as you said pass them off as a limited eddition.im pretty sure he said it was only down the south london area they did this.

This is for the people who ask and ask for updates and i never bother.
Ok most of you now know iam very unhappy with my paint job.
So today armed with G3 compound, sonus polish compound, nattys wax (smells sexual) and a host of other goods i went to town on her.
Trying to sort out the things the body shop so woefully attempted to correct.... pathetic if iam to be truthful.
Anyhooooo it took fecking ages but i think one maybe two more sessions on it i may be a tad closer to being happier, this is how she now looks.
:(

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Update.
Been offroad since november, bad weather etc
Thought id do somthing as i was bored, so the engine is out and stripped.
Been on a spending spree for a few weeks.
T25 turbo, Piper 300 spring and vernier may change to 285, forged pistons, steel liners, manifold (tubey), l/b flywheel, pretty large front mount.
so its ll go go here.. still in 2 minds wether to change the rods with the pistons etc (makes sense in my head)
anyway a few other things being done, general clean up of bay and under the car AGAIN...
So 563 miles done and now having a change up... pic to follow :) peace

Haha i cant remember who told me now, but someone bought some liners and they needed extensive honing etc as they weren't perfect circles.
Just some free advice and could possibly save you alot of agro :)
If you got them free though, then your already on a winner.. Also something else to consider is what rings your going to run. Hope this helps.
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Nice one ;) i saw it on ebay pistons at a decent price then in the add he put the liners in from ktec or somthing. really nice guy when he dropped them off.. just said it was sitting going to waste so selling on.
i'll check the liners out at the machine shop, i need special rings for the liners though nik somthing or other ?? any suggestions? or would the ones that come with the pistons suffice?
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
tbh i think it was the mecca car parts ones, but could of been the gay-tech ones.. Damn my memory is getting bad lol..
That will be nickercil (spelling) .. I run total seal ones, but then they are a bit hit and miss with sealing.. I think some people just run standard rings.. All you've got to remember is 1 of the surfaces has the bed into the other, so something has to give ;)

You can get the ones you have got Nikasil coated, if they are the k-tec ones they are not coated, Total seal rings as Dave says re good with the teel liners, but from memory I think the wossner rings you have should be ok with the steel liners as that's what BBPT and K-tec used to sell with there kits

I'm not sure you can get them.. Nickercil is normally a coating found on the bores.. I got my rings through the guy who does alot of engine work for me.. I'd have to have a look at my paperwork to see where i bought them from as they come from the states via a uk distributer.

I spoke to wossners direct and they said they would last?? But hey if people use then they must lol

Dave that would be good to know the part number for the Total Seal rings, as I have a set of Total Seals but lost the invoice and I need to replace 1 piston with ring's

Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
Ohh these pistons could give an asprin a head ache... how much to get them coated? and for decent rings?
standard liners might be easier.. :)

What you need to think about is what you actually want out of the engine and what you want it to do
-
Re: JRP JERPA JERPA back in the game
james i'm not sure there was a past number as all you do is measure the ring depth and obviously size of piston and then they'll match it up.. I'll have a look round a some point though.

Exactly mate.. Just use them! I'm only trying to help out not scare you.. Its better to no the cost's/maintenance prior to fitting parts that you think will save rebuilds etc only to find out your having to replace stuff every 4k miles..
Well nw i no you got them free, i'll have them for free please haha joking.

That will be nickercil (spelling) .. I run total seal ones, but then they are a bit hit and miss with sealing.. I think some people just run standard rings.. All you've got to remember is 1 of the surfaces has the bed into the other, so something has to give ;)
Wasn't is Stu clark that had the Mecca part ones and said that they needed alot of honing before he was happy with the piston to bore clearance
