    Re: bringing my 5 back from the dead

    Ok the day has finally arrived and I now have my engine back after a Long long long long time but I think the inlet manifold has come out really nice only bad thing is the company can't and won't make me an exhaust manifold now so after selling my last tubular one to help fund the new one I will now have to by one but I have found one which I will order tomorrow and hope it fits or will only need minor adjustments. I have had quite a lot more done to the engine this time round so hoping if all goes well I should have quite a quick 5 also finished my fuel system off and as soon as my laptop stops messing around I'll load up some pics, so now the race is on to see if I can get all the work done and get the car up to scoff if he can fit me in before the fete day as I will be rather pissed off seeing everyones 5's there and not mine

    the company who done the work have made a locating dowel mate behind the pully so the trigger wheel cannot come off or slip as i was going to get it welded but this was the neater option

    TB is quite common and is found on most renaults from an early meagane/laguna but this actually came from an 03 plate scenic which is still the same from an ealy 90's megane plus i went for this as the throttle cable is the same fiiting as the 5 and goes straight on the 5 pedal it,s a 50mm TB and injectors are siemens 550's

    cheers for all your coments guys

    Hi sieger they are 8j's by 15's with an ET of 25 and the tyre size is 185/45/15's 75v the only place I could find to supply this size tyre was nankang and the Tyres were shipped it from Germany total cost for 4 was £180.80 Inc vat and post I think it's helped with the 185's as there is more on the stretch for the rear arches

    Hope this helps mate let me know if you need any help

    Phil

    Re: bringing my 5 back from the dead

    some more goodies have arrived today my new 10mm magnecor leads made to measure all set lengths then i had some vacuum pipe arrive and i got my new exhaust manifold today 38mm, inch and half pipe work so should allow the engine to breath better now rather than being strangled by the old inch pipe work k-tec one i used to have really please with the manifold as there is half the amount of welds compared to the ktec or raceland ones and bigger

    work on the car starts as from tonight so hoping to have the engine back in by wednesday

    cheers for looking
    phil
