Yeah i think they were selling stock off as the front discs were something like 8 quid each! So these lions you have, how much do you want for them?

So with the house move I've had zero time to do any work on the car but that hasn't stopped me buying bits for the car. First up us some red '6' badges bought for the price of a pint from a friend. And then seeing what great offers Euro Car Parts had on I bought the following for £126...

Not sure if this was the one you were looking at as I bought it of Gumtree. Yeah I love them as they feel so analogue and everything just feels right. Bloody heavy haha! Hopefully a set of clutch fork bushes and clutch cable will help. Yeah my 1st GTI-6 was Moonstone blue and brings back...

Well I'm not quite sure if it's quite qualifies for "retro" status yet but heres my 2001 X-Reg Peugeot 306 GTI-6. Now over the last 15 years I've had over 10 different 306 GTI-6's/306 Rallyes including 2 supercharged versions but for the last 5 years I've switched alliances to the other...

Yes its done the rounds around here but looked nice and clean when i saw it about 12 months ago

Did you by this from Swansea Area?

Pipe could be the breather pipe off the battery. Regarding the sensor a quick google brought this up https://www.4roo.com/annonce-auto-419633.html

I'm not chasing massive numbers so just going to be using the R26 engine and gearbox and 'de-tuning' it from its current level, 270/280 should be more than enough in a small car I hope ?

Looks can be deceving. Its a Cat C registered car with 10 owners so sadly not worth a great deal complete but runs perfect so a great engine donor.

I agree. I'd be happy at 270ish as it would be far more drivable with the 250 turbo. Seen so many mapped at the top end of 290 for 'safety' just to go pop.

So as a few of you may have seen I recently started a track day project which was posted here https://www.cliosport.net/threads/roland-rats-225-r26-track-toy-build.821311/ But my circumstances have changed and track days are no longer on the horizon. As the track car is a no go I still want a...

I am indeed. Drop me a pm if you want

Yes, long story short life is changing for me so no free time for track cars :(

So with the run up to Christmas etc I havent done anything of late on the car. Today I had a day off so decided to sort out a few bits while it was dry. When I bought the car there was a few issues that previous owner hadn't sorted after a bump they had a while back. First was that there was...

I did but no one wanted to give me a fair price for it and i knew id get good money back in breaking it so thats what i did!!! ?

as with everything in life the only constant is change. That is no truer than the track project! An R26 turned up local and very well priced so i just couldn't say no! :eek: Buying it means i get a car already fitted with better beam, bigger front arb and the limited slip diff plus its lower...

Sadly the full cage shell isnt going to feature in this build as I'm stuck for space to have 2 cars laid up while I transfer all the bits over. ? But never the less I've been doing a few minor things with the car. First up was the purchase of some engine bay bling to cheer me up. Next up I...

So it looks like I've bought myself an expensive climbing frame for the build. wasn't planning to go this mad but a well speeced shell has turned up for not far of the cost of a half cage

Haha this actually is my first proper track car build do i want to see this one through ☺ Aiming to have it track ready come march/april do buying bits and storing them away atm. night out sounds like a must!

So after talking to a fellow Megane owner about the conversion we have found something that we think will surffice as a bracket/caliper spacer without having brackets made up. M14 Clearance Aluminium 1" O/D ( 25.4mm ) spacer / bush PICK LENGTH 8mm - 35mm | eBay Hopefully 4 of those and bobs...

There's already a kit for sale at £360 but ive managed to keep the cost so far to half that. just a few beers for my mate and thats the spending done.

Cheers for the heads up mate, hes going to take care of that as well.

So bought a few bits for the Megane RS250 brake conversion. Spigot Rings 68.1mm 60.1mm Wheel Spacer Set of 4 Alloy Wheel Hub Centric Celica | eBay M8 M10 M12 & M14 Metric Fine 10.9 Grade High Tensile Self Colour Steel Hex Bolts | eBay FOR MEGANE MK3 SPORT RS250 RS265 RS275 TROPHY FRONT...

Drop me a pm

So the buying bug continues! Spotted these on a Facebook Megane sport page and had to have them as they were silly cheap. Those who know the Megane 225/R26 range know that the cars already come with Brembo 4 pot calipers as standard so why buy these I hear you cry? The ones pictured above...

So having this week off has worked out well for me so far. Granted not much DIY has been done and the O/H will no doubt give me a ear bashing but it means I've had more time to do car stuff.:cool: A lad was breaking his R26 on Facebook and was selling the parts off quickly as he needed the cash...

So I've got some time off this week and in between painting/DIY I'm hoping to do some bits on the Megane First up was changing the boot lids over. The one that came on the car when I bought it had a genuine Carbon Fibre R26.R spoiler that I sold to raise some funds for other goodies for this...

I was gutted to split the LY R26 up but needs must :( I think I've got a chrome top somewhere bud, I'd have to have a look through the garage to make sure but I know I don't have any R26 rear discs sorry

So spent last weekend stripping the Inferno breaker ready for buyer of engine to collect later next week. While snooping through the service history i came across a recepit for a recent clutch fitment within the last 2k. Was pleasantly surprised to find this fitted and like new...

scrap it
