Does anyone have info over the following setup :
M56 gearbox and B4194T/T2 engine (from S/V40 T4) under the hood of a 480 ?
I'm almost certain a 5 cylinder wouldn't fit but how about the 4 cylinder 1.9L 16V turbo from the X40 ?

Use front-right wing to repair rear-left arche. Use front-left wing to repair rear-right arche. Your 480 will be slightly wider aft...

Havn't been able to find a topic detailing the rebuild of a rear caliper ... sorry. I paid a visit to a french forum member and he gave me some good tips. The pad adjustment was stucked on one caliper, causing me to have no handbrake but I managed to release it with some WD40. (getting the first scr...

Did you rebuild your brake calipers with the rebuild kit ? I'm looking forward to do the same on mines. Also, where did you get the rebuild kit ? If you got it from Holland, let me know, I live at 25 km from the dutch border. If you could post some explanations and pictures of the differents steps t...

Anybody got a reference for theses rear bearings ? I have a 88 turbo with no ABS and can't find one. Worse is that the partsbook doesn't even mention theses bearings but if I can manage to get a reference number, I'll be able to get one, even straight from SKF factory ... So far, I've been told to c...

It sounds like RPRUEN stopped providing the famous 'richmod' ECU ... :cry: Does anybody ever tried to use an EPROM emulator in order to tweak their ECU ? Like this stuff . Basically you load an ECU map and change it's content live with the engine running through a USB port on the box itself. Why not...

Another suggestion straight from a french site : A turbo head on a 2L block with a renault 21 turbo ECU. Detailled (in french) here . The guy also bolted a clio group N rally gearbox, just in case ... Renault sport used to sell dry sump kit for theses blocks. And if you don't want to invest in racin...

I have the opportunity to grab a gearbox from a clio group N rallycar. The price is slightly above 1000£ (1500€) which is about half the price you should normally pay for such an item. The gearbox is in fact a renault JC5 gearbox with SADEV internals. The gear ratio is about the same as on ...

I like to bring old topics back to life. Does anyone knows how to test that particular temp sensor ? There is only one wire for it. I guess if I try to remove it from the head, the coolant will spill out so, I'd better leave it in place. Do you know which pin on the infodisplay is linked to the engi...
