Hi guys so when you wired this you wired column to a 12v source and had the dial wired in? I assume that is all that is required. Also am I correct in thinking that the column has its own ECU and doesnt rely on the cars ecu? Again sorry for digging this up
Yeah slightly :lolup:. I have alot of parts and have alot given to me. The only thing I am needing to buy and pay for is the roll cage, and some random parts
I'm not doing it alone I have some friends helping, I haven't got enough skill to do it alone. But I am determined that it will work. Each of my friends have their own skill and going to utilize those skills. I will make a guide, it should be starting soon
Hung up on the cup arent we? I like my mk1, I'm keeping my mk1, I havent spent much on my mk1, engine was in effect free, head was £50 and got everything I need from previous projects. I dont need to spend anything on my mk1. 02m box was free
The entire front end i being re shaped and re done, so yes everything comes down to where will it fit best? There is a hell of alot of work to go on, but it will be worth it in the end
I will be fitting a 6 speed 02m box on a turbo'd 172 engine. I am putting in a 6 speed 02m box as it gives me the option of a 6th gear and a 4wd option. I will eventually make it 4wd for now I want to have a higher speed and better gear ratios, which the 02m box offers. When it comes to fitting...
Yeah it is tight, but it will literally just fit, gunna be re-fabricating some of the mk1 bay to make it fit more flush, but it will fit in fine I think. Fingers crossed though measurements are just measurements lol
I also gave the person my word I would strip it, as he was a friend who did not want to see it driven around again. Ah well I made cash on it which was my main aim
Ah well worth a look, I'm going to use a 02m box then. Got a friend whos done it before and helping me fit it. Just wanted to see if the 6 speed clio box would fit
I wouldn't risk my license or money/labour on not declaring the mod if it was road legal. I've seen far too many idiots on here not declaring engine swaps, a bit stupid dont you think?
Its a 2l 172bhp engine... I'm 19 with no no claims... its expensive enough on my diesel. Every quote I ever got on a 172 was like £3000 with the cheapest at £1500 with one of those box things.
The clio cup I stripped has now been taken away... they decided to cut it up to take it away lol... The result of a back yard mechanic doing timing wrong...
Bought a new top end for £50, set of megane pistons for free. Rebuilding top end in couple of weeks. Got a friend making me a tubular...
Will a TL4 Gearbox off a 6 speed clio dci, fit on a clio 172 engine?
Sorry I realized just then I didn't actually ask a question
I'm aware of the other work required, I know its hydro but thats not an issue. All I want to know is if the gearbox will fit.

Hi guys I'm gunna 6 speed my 172 engine as I am pushing for high horsepower. I found a 6 speed clio box from an 06 DCI, engine code of DCI was K4K and gearbox code TL4. I know sport boxes start with TL4 but with the 6 speed box fit the F4R engine. Before you guys start mentioning costs I want my...
Lol Just started stripping down the 172 engine that I took out the cup and found out that there was no head gasket, but only window grade silicone sealant? Who the fudge does that? Timing was out by over 90-120 degree! But I found an entire top end to put on it! So replaced the pistons and then...

Bad cam belt change (fudged)
I get all these problems yet I still buy more clios...
So the project has started, the 172 cup had its last ever road trip.
Then it got home and took all its clothes off.... filthy swine
Sold some random parts, some still available if anyone is interested. The engine that dropped the valve is in good nick, just replacing valves and pistons and...
