Hi pal thanks for the welcome ;D, if its cheys your on abouf with the white coupe then yeah pritty much that to a certain extent, but not running g40 management etc, its a renault 5 carb with solex inlet and t2/25 turbo, still alot of work to do bud, the block/head/gearbox are painted few bits being powdercoated:)
parts still need are fmic and pipes, oil cooler kit, slimline fan, need a downpipe fabricated the list is endless and frying my brain lol but all be worth it

hows your g40 treating you mate? Any mods? Or is that a stupid question:)

Wow!! Thats insane! Got any pics? never seen anything like that before, That will sound epic! You cant beat the sound of a carb, plus turbo spool

sound like your doing pretty well with it :) look forward to seeing it, yep "the list is endless" i know that feeling lol
thats the one, is really well written
indeed, many many mods, forged pistons, 1341 bottom end, psd cam, toothies but to name a few, recently drove to switzerland in it, check out the post in this section a few below yours
theres plenty of parts that come up for sale on here, and lots of helpful people :)
