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

 

your some guy taking on another project aswell as your s1!!!
best of luck!!!

 

How much time do you have? Do you not sleep? Good luck fella!

u like aving a tinker dont ya

 

cant beat it.couldnt get pics up tonight cos ma dad was away with digital camera.defo get them up over the weekend.

 

knew a lad that had one of these he dropped it 100mm, nearly scrapeing the floor but looked kool, and there bloody rapid aswell

 

yeh.am thinking 60mm will do along with some 17"s.its so quick up through the gears.no lag at all

 

 

blimey you do have some time on your hands lol.

fun toys those R5 GTT's

 

some pics folks.camera went flat so didnt get a lot.

car is solid enough.drivers side is the worst so gona replace the door and rub down rest of surface rust.
will get more pics as i strip bumpers off.to wet to do it today

 

looks a good project mate

 

Its a car ive never really knew much about tbh . but theres a boy down this way with a light blue/greeny flipped paint thing with clio dash , chrome , etc etc wins all the tropheys he tells me

Do like that pic u posted up so if it looks like that then great

good luck

 

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

 

What happened to this heed?

 

cool little project mate

 

old thread mate but if you still have this let me know if you need any parts, ive got a whole lot of them and breaking a fair few 5's at my work!
