I know mate, the build quality is next level!! Just hope it fits šŸ¤£ I was going to but Iā€™ve had that much on and spent that much I didnā€™t get chance to buy any semi slicks and stick them onto my spare steelies. The missus is coming with me so weā€™re just going to enjoy the day out. ---

Also going to stick this here about the Clio 2 1.2 16v steering rack mod. I know weā€™ve just spoke about it in another thread and itā€™ll probably get lost in the massive pile of threads but Iā€™ll post it here for future reference. ![E4228122-4DF3-47FB-8B0C-D044482F688F.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/4/a/4a5611961986123092d5b35089d0ea8b04f33706.webp) Think mine came out of a ā€˜03 Clio 1.2 16v. Literally bolts straight to the subframe top bolt holes (not all four like the standard rack) the rack threaded ends needed to be cut down because they were too long for the hubs to be pointing straight instead of the huge amount of tow in when it was first fitted šŸ¤£ I run Clio 172 hubs so the track rods are a direct fit so Iā€™m unsure if they will fit into GTT hubs šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø If not then I guess you might be able to screw on the GTT track rods onto the Clio 1.2 rack?? Obviously itā€™s unknown territory as far as Iā€™m aware but Iā€™m sure someone on here will find out. Only other thing to note is that I couldnā€™t find a proper gaitor to cover the UJ so I just spray it with silicone spray every now and then. ---

Both Me and the missus enjoyed CSF. Regret not camping but it was my step mums birthday on the Sunday and was meeting up with them in the Peak District for the day. Weā€™ve said weā€™ll definitely camp next year though and Iā€™ll book track time for the 5! Drove down with coops in the morning and had a Mc Dā€™s on the way. I do like his setup in the mk1 and is literally like for like with dannysā€™s mk1 clio (apart from ITBā€™s) Couldnā€™t believe how hot it was though and Iā€™m great full the TR gazebo was there to give my skin a rest from the heat šŸ¤£ was nice to meet you all and have a catch up with others. Looking forward to the next outing and hoping that the TR group with be at Retro Rides which me and the missus have already booked camping šŸ‘€ ![9B9610AA-35FC-4B65-9983-005262045F73.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/3/3/335573d932bc0571315adfdcb12f933da6bd82f7.webp) ![96A0C505-2F53-42B2-87CF-DB2DF283C589.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/6/4/64cab151374dc625877d695d7766ec36682a9104.webp) ![3FC250A9-8A85-413D-9BD2-A93B3F6CA2D3.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/2/6/26f4003fe31579f99e42bb939720a495655a3bdd.webp) ![E6A83ADF-910D-49A3-9516-D6DAA2D90E8D.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/7/e/7e47cd9355e4a2054c8d852c8bd28a0df804a396.webp) ![5671FE73-EFA3-4403-9285-8BCA59AB74CC.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/7/0/703514ae2a81a47841bb048312e76c885ad78e7e.webp) ![42926D65-59F3-4C99-AD19-76ABF3E9918C.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/5/0/5057dc68bb59a854e6cbea379895f3a2d2855f42.webp) ---

Since the weather has been warm Iā€™ve been going out at night to set some 0-60ā€™s on the dragy box. Done plenty of runs and I just canā€™t seem to better 5.6. Itā€™s really hard set off with out spinning the wheels in 1st and 2nd and this was literally my best run. ![EB3FA658-440A-49EA-B7BF-B53039427FA2.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/b/d/bd2746a9b4f457db853d5ff5d94f2ba8b9fd970e.webp) Because it was dark I canā€™t really get any inside footage so thought Iā€™d post this video of a good launch from the traffic lights from a previous dayā€¦ [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/rcJ5bl05wME/maxresdefault.jpg "Renault 5 172 conversion on jenvey throttle bodies ITBā€™s and Gen90 stand-alone ecu") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcJ5bl05wME) More to comeā€¦. ---

after a huge absence Iā€™m back šŸ‘€ been a busy winter and now springs on its way itā€™s time to get some jobs done. First port of call was the front [engine mount](http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=engine+mount) which had collapsed through its arse. ![2A09184C-5865-46A0-A727-D9544BD9BB81.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/2/3/239844e46c92912759b8cf43bd125c571a215f89.webp) Bought a new mount and also purchased the ā€œgtxā€ bracket from one of the guys off the b18ft groups. Dunno if anyone else has issues with going though mounts but this is my 3rd front mount and Iā€™m also on my 2nd rear mount. The front gearbox mount is still the 1st one and still looks in good Nick ![247D0687-F65C-46DD-9A0A-CFB4E87D50DD.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/c/6/c652b9dfc803fbd76c8fcf6c67b604fe1da04586.webp) New vs a year of abuse. Also pics below of ā€œgtxā€ mount which did move the engine closer to the offside suspension strut tower but thereā€™s still afew millimetres of clearance for the engine to move. ![7202F5C9-C37D-486D-B9E0-7ECD19AB3103.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/2/1/21a5530f42e03ec212ee121db900c3a24c4a7001.webp) Didnā€™t get any pictures but did have to make some clearance on the left hand side of the bracket to clear an area around the water pump casting. After that was done Iā€™d got fed up with how bulky the 172cup alternator setup was and decided Togo down the rose joint adjuster route. My mate had a spare so had a cheeky five finger discount on that šŸ‘€ ![8008AE7A-0C05-42AA-85D4-0937C15DA96B.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/c/5/c5eec1e8588f5b672f8d304c2794b3fda7c7201a.webp) ![42087245-E8A9-49BA-856F-202EB3594827.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/b/b/bba95e6f8251d5fe71a0698147f2c5f5750b0ddc.webp) You can see where the front cross member has been ā€œplatedā€ to fit the cup alternator setup which Iā€™ll sort out at a later date!! Anyway, new set up is loads better!! Can adjust it without taking the bumper off (unlike the cup setup) and ended up selling the cup [alternator bracket](http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=alternator+bracket) and adjuster for Ā£100 šŸ‘šŸ¼ after completing this task the fucking [clutch cable](http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=clutch+cable) snapped! Only one that I could find quickly was from CGB-Motorsport which sent out next day delivery but the fire wall grommet was incorrect!! ![2A59C3C8-7C6F-445F-B045-FFA065B69D73.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/e/f/ef03c73995614756557f7e682d92474a2ca81e54.webp) After battling with it for hours trying to rag it through the firewall I decided it would be easier just to reuse the grommet of the old clutch cable and it literally took 2mins! ![00169914-8B19-48B3-8BE7-E70ACE948328.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/0/b/0b25d446f88cfa9882ea34dd5e8171f333e281cc.webp) So, after that dilemma I decided to tackle the issue of not running no air filter on the ITBā€™s!! The trumpets were 5mm shorter than the air filter and not making power on EFIā€™s rollers (not letting the engine breath) forcing me not to run a filter which has ended up with me cleaning them out each month from carbon build up. Iā€™ve done some research and found jenvey actually do trumpets to order. With the space between the engine and slam panel being very tight I needed some trumpets which the bolts went through the front of the trumpet making it easier for me to service them and also giving them enough room inside the filter to let the car breath and make power. ![25BB1F32-1A70-4D93-BA1F-15AD8C4DE60D.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/8/5/854df068d61cb5bf7135ee90930c812188ac5a84.webp) ![87E42D9B-52B0-4D58-8846-B1FD4D5A5780.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/d/b/db3d95ac5a7d3af426bd150331564adc0a5d81f6.webp) after fitting these and the filter I took it for a rip and Iā€™m glad to say that thereā€™s enough room to let the car breath and once again my cars an absolute animal which now has a proper air filter!! Another job ticked off the list now it was time to tackle the front [coilovers](http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=coilovers), which looked like theyā€™d been chucked to the bottom of the sea with the titanic!! Also with this Iā€™d gained a knock which I believed with the OE campus top mounts. After chatting to afew lads including Brigsy Iā€™ve put my hand in my pocket and purchased some COMPBRAKE top mounts. Was told by afew lads that I had to buy billet spring caps from GAZ so that thereā€™s not interference between the top mount and spring cap. ![174C61D1-519E-4617-B9D4-DCBDC59355C7.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/0/3/03b21cc4eddd0d0b868a50881f4aaa106dd82233.webp) After fitting these I noticed that the bearing collar wasnā€™t sitting correctly on the suspension strut shaft. ![BF25C6CF-2DEA-4E6F-94E3-5F7EEAE8A690.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/1/2/121ce937545cd1cc2f018e4e8d688bf12689a841.webp) Rang GAZ and told them the issue and they said that they can machine the shaft to allow the collar to sit right and I also took this opportunity to have my coilovers reconditioned and also purchase some heavier springs. ![C8920BAB-FDD5-4A9A-BFCB-C36C98027562.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/3/3/334c783856b2488eb2848a59e073f06328e5060d.webp) Collar now sitting flush with the strut shaft and now that is sorted I was a piece of cake to build the rest up and fit them. ![0DF1F31A-CAAE-4C83-8B21-CFA7E808DB97.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/4/9/494a659337abe97b1874b32624db0bcab43c8cf3.webp) Beefy 350lb springsā€¦ hopefully these will sort afew handing issues I had on 250lb springs. Dampener adjuster is now billet and not shitty plastic like the ones Iā€™ve had in the past!! šŸ‘šŸ¼šŸ‘šŸ¼ ![C2CB6EBB-DA66-478C-A5AE-F0552052EA94.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/b/f/bfe0e246a30466160269b90dff8674a43759eac4.webp) After fitting I adjusted to maximum camber which gave me -3degrees (looked cool but way too much) šŸ¤£ once adjusted for caster it now sat at -1degrees of camber but was unsure about measuring the caster, any caster is better than non I guess. Will have to get the geometry done at a later date but all looks good and drove ok. ![5610BEBC-AF98-42EF-84B1-DD3A891B41FE.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/6/c/6c647b53240a2a2d8806033b0fbf0d05493c178c.webp) To be continuedā€¦ ---

Took the 5 to a local geometry specialist to have the front setup. Tried to aim for -1degree on camber and as much castor as possible. With how I positioned the top mounts and adjusting the camber so both sides were equal I ended up with -2degrees of camber and quite a bit of castor (I donā€™t actually know how to measure this properly) šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤£ after this I took the 5 for a thrash and it drives amazing!! The suspension is a lot more compliant now and is lot more comfortable even though Iā€™ve gone from 250lb to 350lb springs. I now think that there was an issue with the campus OE mounts I was running as I canā€™t think why solid mounts would make it a more settled ride. ![32B08580-517D-42B2-B699-9FEBCA93E2E8.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/c/5/c58b3a465405429734909f23be2e96a8d294d23d.webp) ![48ECD9D6-9ACA-4F5D-A47D-4F3844ED50C4.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/8/7/87c29ddcec626d50cecb94f1e7849e141996f744.webp) Iā€™m really impressed with the top mounts though and will definitely advise any one else to get them fitted as itā€™s been a night and day difference on mine. after looking at the position of the top mounts I will have to reposition them and go back to have them set up and aim for -1degree of camber as Iā€™m still getting wheel spin coming out of corners/roundabouts or maybe this could be just a fettling with the dampers. Also to help with the weight transfer issue in corners Iā€™ve purchased a 23mm anti roll bar (Williams arb) as my current arb is only 21mm so Iā€™ll need to purchase some more polybushes and swap everything over. ![C58F5E3A-2E3C-4BCA-8BF9-08A0A0F9D547.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/6/6/66873e778c47b4000faa9888230d000daf956685.webp) Itā€™s abit rough but itā€™s gunna get chopped down slightly and powder coated red at a later date when the engines out. Since Iā€™ve been tinkering with it Iā€™ve also noticed thereā€™s been oil appearing on the rocker cover. ![C9001953-2786-4B74-8A19-87E9FBE1E3A4.webp](https://turborenault.co.uk/uploads/default/original/3X/4/2/42c08c2d41862bbe20acb69acb14be02558f0aec.webp) Found the VVT solenoid seal had seen better days so Iā€™ve swapped that out for a brand spanker which should now see me out šŸ‘€.

More positive castor is absolutely the way forward for a good handling R5. The difference it made to mine was awesome, straight line stability and cornering is so much better. What tyres are you running? Mine with -2.5deg is good when getting on the power exiting a corner in the dry. ---

Iā€™m running 195/50/15ā€™s ps3. I know theyā€™re not the best tyre going but I really do like them and donā€™t really have much trouble with cornering or throwing into any corner at speedā€¦ itā€™s just spinning up the inner wheel when exiting a corner (which obviously has less weight on it that the outer wheel) ---

I think you will always struggle a little with traction on ps3 when absolutely on it, they are a good tyre though great for all conditions but fwd and decent power in a light chassis will always be a pain on normal road tyres. Bang some semi slicks on for summer, and/or gripper plate diff. That will sort it ---

Definitely semiā€™s will help and Iā€™ll certainly will be running them on track but I have had a few bum twitching moments with semiā€™s on the rear, just canā€™t seem to get any heat in them where as the PS3ā€™s I donā€™t have an issue and the car has a lot less lift off oversteer. When I had my box built, Northloopcup gave me a choice of quaife or gripper and now Iā€™m really used to how The car drives, I kinda wish I went gripper šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø ---

Which semis did you use? R888r usually quite progressive even when not up to temp. The difference between helical quaife and gripper plate diff is insane. ---

Iā€™ve had AD08rā€™s, giti gtr2ā€™s. Did try dz03gā€™s aswell but they were catching on the rear arches bad. I am kinda limited with some tyres on the rear as the campus trims are tight in comparison to gtt arch trim ---

Yeah rear clearance is an issue on standard arches. I have the same issue on the Extra van, thats why ive stuck with 13s. Stick with ps3 on rear and semis up front maybe. ---

Sometimes I think about changing to gtt hubs to run 13ā€™s but then I hear how some folk have issues with wheel bearings going which i never really have an issues with plus, I couldnā€™t have mine any lower as the exhaust manifold runs underneath the subframe which soon I hope to sort out with this PMS manifold Iā€™ve still got in the garage [Previous page](https://turborenault.co.uk/t/renny-5-sleeper/59445.md?page=2) [Next page](https://turborenault.co.uk/t/renny-5-sleeper/59445.md?page=4)
