RENAULT 19 16V TURBO FOR SALE.
Here is my beloved Renault 19 16v turbo that ive owned for over 8 years and has been built, modified and maintained regardless of cost..
As you can see by the pictures it has been stripped and been fully customized and modified to a very high standard.
The car is running 300bhp presently but has been run higher on the dyno runs but de tuned to where its currently set at 21psi for sake of the gearbox/clutch.
BODY SHELL/CHASSIS.
I’ll start with the body shell/chassis, it has been professionally stripped to bare metal and had a full re spray including inner and outer seals, inner and outer wings and other welding to get it up to A1 condition and brand new bonnet. It’s been fully wax oiled to prevent any rust in the future. All excess engine metallic parts, sub frame, wishbones and torsion bar, plus the rocker cover and plenum were all powder coated in silver to match the engine bay. The exterior has small mouse mirrors, it did have small racing carbon mirrors with custom mounts but were too small to see out of so were changed to the ones on the car, if wished they will also come with the sale of the car. The bonnet has also been fully louvered and had a vent built in to channel cool air to the air filter. The front bumper was changed as it was in bad condition for an aftermarket bumper which allows more air to the front of the car for cooling over the rad and charge cooler rad. All work carried out by FULFORD MOTORSPORT in Colchester. The car comes with the old wings that can be repaired, 2 doors (passenger/driver) and aftermarket front and 2 rear bumpers as i had a spare set sent.
SUSPENSION.
The suspension is fully custom built coilovers front and rear. Built by LEDA and are fully adjustable with 24 presets for rebound and stiffness. The front coilovers were built and specifically designed to have shorter struts for maximum movement even when the car is as low as it is. The car also has full poly bushes all round. The top mounts are made from solid billet alloy and have bearings and are fully adjustable so you can camber in. The original items were poor and had to be replaced regularly through fracturing.
WHEELS.
The wheels are 17’’ team dynamic black multi spokes and are wrapped in yokohama prada 205/40ZR17 84W tyres, they are all in very good condition and have loads of tread being virtually brand new. The car also comes with a 5th brand new spare wheel exactly the same as the others plus tyre and are still boxed.
BRAKES.
The brakes have been modified on the front with the 325mm large disc conversion and have hi spec 4 pot callipers, also running ferrodo ds 2500 pads and braided lines. The rears have uprated discs and are also running ferrodo ds 2500 pads with braided lines.
INTERIOR.
The interior has been fully custom retrimmed by CARISMA AUTOMOTIVE, which includes being fully lethear lined recarpeted with false floor behind driver and passenger seats to store the amp and CD changer and also has plenty of room for tools etc. The rest of the interior, seats, roof, A/B/C pillars, door cards, dash etc have been wrapped in butterscotch leather. The dash had to be sourced and replaced as the original was in bad condition and beyond repair, the glove box is fitted with gauges which include, water temp, oil pressure, oil temp and volt meter, the gauge up on the dash by the steering wheel is the pressure gauge for the turbo. It also has a flip down display head unit and 4 large speakers, 2 mounted in the doors and 2 behind passenger and driver which are very loud. Also incorporated into the build was the 6 point roll cage designed with door bars and built custom for this car by CAGED who also built the sub frames for the seats. The seats are high sided glass fibre not the metal framed cheaper versions so hold you in pretty tight on cornering. The seats have 4 point harnesses which are attached and bolted to the sub frames and roll cage for maximum safety. The interior also has metal floor mats which can be taken out for ease of cleaning.
ENGINE.
The engine was originally designed and built by BB tuning, it has the full low compression piston set up but has since been modified and had an improved set up by AL ENGINEERING in Colchester who prepare Subaru rally cars. The engine bay has custom built turbo heat shields and has a brand new clio Williams gearbox not a recon plus clutch and has the soft pedal conversion for ease of driving around town. The starter motor/alternator, rad and fan and uprated fuel pump were all replaced for new items. It has full silicone hoses throughout the engine bay. Its running the custom exhaust manifold with a T28/T3 hybrid 360 roller bearing turbo which was rebuilt less than 6 months ago, It has a upgraded forge billet alloy actuator with customized control arm which holds the boost perfect on hard acceleration and forge alloy dump valve. From the turbo the exhaust goes straight down through one box and out on the left hand side (side exit) with a stainless steel side pipe, it’s also been heat wrapped around the back of the engine and first half of the exhaust to help prevent heat damage to the car and other close parts. It’s running cosworth green injectors, upgraded leads and NGK spark plugs to run for the higher temps, new bailey motorsport high pressure fuel regulator and race spec lambda sensor for very accurate readings when it was recently remapped. The engine also has a charge cooler set up which keeps it cool even in the hottest of summer days. All engine mounts were replaced for new items when the car was stripped to a bare shell for re spray. The engine has only covered around 1500miles since being rebuilt around 6 months ago at the same time the turbo was rebuilt.
As already mentioned in the advert the car comes with 2 spare doors, old wings, spare wheel and tyre (brand new still boxed), 1 front and 2 rear bumpers (aftermarket). It has a Clifford 650 mkll alarm fitted which is cat 1 for insurance purposes.
Selling due to family and work commitments, i need something a little more sedate with 4 doors. This car is immaculate and you’ll be hard pushed to find anything wrong and any rust on this bodyshell so no test pilots, tyre kickers, time wasters and so on, only serious enthusiasts please.
This is a much loved car so sensible offers only please guys, no silly offers.
