So I’ve decided the time has come to part ways with my 5
Brief run down
Genuine gt turbo shell but I have converted it to f7p turbo with jc5 gearbox
I purchased the shell from Matt@codered 11 years ago and it was very solid needing only a patch on the osf
Sills appear to be genuine never welded...
Regrets, I've had a few...
It's sadly time to sell 'Whitey', my phase 2 R5 GTT.
I've owned it twice since 2007. Sold it to 'Jimmy' in Hungary (for any old skool rtoc members that remember him) around 2011, then bought it back off him Sept' 2012, and had it since. Log-book shows 6x former...
So after not being on the road for 2 years and locked up in garage it was time to get it out and enjoy it
Straight to mot no problems
Then went on ebay and bidded on a engine with gearbox as it looked too clean and cheap considering the f4r market is usually £700+ for only an engine

I am looking to confirm the approx. ride height of a 5 GT Turbo - I could dig out the haynes from somewhere but iirc the measurement listed is not taken from the jacking points to floor (bottom of outer sill level)
Is anyone able to measure a stock GT Turbo height from wheel arch point and also...
I've heard it said that "idle hands are the devils workshop." Now that I have my R8 Alpine running and handling great, all I need is more power. Steve Swan's great restoration of Paul E's R8 GTT has me longing for a turbo motor. The interweb says that Paul's GTT motor should produce 120...

I fancy finding a shell and making a project out of it to possibly restore to origionallity or go further and make it more desirable with a bigger more powerful engine in it. Can yous post your R5 GT turbos and give some information on what you've done to it, still plan to do to it, and your...
Hi all
This post has been years in the making, mainly because I may find out what I’ve been dreading for the last 15 years or so.
This is the first forum I have ever joined, so apologies if I’m not up to speed on the etiquette.
I own a 1990 R5GTT that has been stood outside in a friends garden...
Does anyone know where this car is now.
I sold it back in 2013 with only done23k miles on it.
I see on the dvla it’s Sorn’d and out of m.o.t but looks like someone bought it in August this year.
This guy is modifying a Uno MPI manifold for his C2J engined R19. Might work on a GT turbo too.
The negative part is that this model might be an Argentinian model...
Looking for breather hoses from top of breather pot to rocker, inlet and telephone turbo hose.

Wanted to give you all enough notice that I’m already in discussion with the Dutch GTTO (GT Turbo Owners) regarding their 2022 national day.
I was booked to go to their 2020 event, but obviously Covid knackered that up!!
Definitely want to be going to the 2022 event… and if...
I've had my Renault 5 for a long time now, since the 2nd of December 2007!

These photos are from the day before I last drove it in 2016 😲
