wheat from the chav in your case i think...... hasn't your mechanic fixed the black gta yet or is it still being fixed by photoshop

you can't beat driver experience when it comes to setting a car up.... but surely you must have read that in a book somewhere

to get your facts right..... we don't have a linkage yet.... but it's obvious you know d!ck as you would have seen there was a gearbox actually in situ and
you wouldn't know how to fit a jc 5 on a clio engine not about any other engine and if you did it would be back in the garage in 10 minutes .... go back to you're books schoolboy....... i remember when you phoned me about sticking a sequential box on a five turbo why phone me you know everything!..... how fookin stupid..... the box is worth more than the p.o.s. you'd be sticking it on.... and obviously why you phoned me..... it wasn't written down in a book anywhere was it...

when you've got real proof start talking.... not a load of photoshopped crap like we keep seeing......

i'm getting bored now.....

so what was it about the karting????

Ooh Andy, calm down, :lol: If I remember I asked you the going 'price' of a sequential Clio/Spider box.....or if you had one :lol:

I know you have a gearbox fitted, its the Megane 6 speed, but as its out of a FWD car, your going to have a proper rigmarole trying to get the linkage to work in a rear engined setup, as it all needs to be fabricated in reverse. If you had spoke to me in the first place, I could have showed you how to fit the original JC5 box to your F4RT engine, so no fookin around and would have been driveable, but instead you chose to argue with me in public, when you knew damn well I was right.

Stop always being bitchy just because the reason stems down to my brother not selling you some wheels that you wanted, like '8 years ago!'. Get over it and grow up, your an adult.

But im sure in the FWD car, the gear lever isnt IN FRONT of the engine is it? As for the book on the install, who needs a book, when its simple logic?

There are many Renault 5 guys running F4RT engines on JB and JC5 boxes, you can ask them if your wondering....
