Default renault 5 turbo project...something to tinker with.pics!!!

awrite folks.got this aff ma bro and going to get it looking spot on again and probably sell it when am done

its a h plate grey renault 5 turbo in need of a bit of tlc,car runs good and pulls like a train and interior is in excellent condition so its just the body am going to be concentratin on
so far ive ordered smooth rear and front bumpers.new doors for it as they are a bit dented.just looking for smooth tailgate etc.going for the very low and smooth look on a set of 16 or 17inch super turismos.

will get pics up tommorow nite of what it looks like just now and as i progress through but will eventually be for sale as its just something to keep me busy when ive not got parts for the series one.

going to be like this in grey minus the centre exit exhaust and square plate

Default r5

my m8 has one of these still a 1.4 it runs 21 psi boost all day long and when the boost is wound right up he's running 2 bar!!! the thing has never blown up yet i'm guessing the block must be long studded cause they're prone to blowing head gasket when the boost gets screwed up the thing ran low 14's at crail he bet a guy in a stage 3 cossie(but the guy did say he was running a standard accuator as his -34 was fooked!!)the cossie whipped him off the line but the cossie wasn't able to run high boost due to the fact of his accuator still looked damn impressive..even though i'm a ford man myself..my mates 5 has a host of other uprated goodies on it as well hybrid t25, fmic,group a carb,etc,etc...i prefer your s1 though m8
