must be bigger than i remember then...mine was a scenic one,which i assume this is as well.Same part number asR26R bottle,but for pennies from ebay..
amazing really how the airtek cooler is infinatly better than the chinese cooler,its virtually the same size and depth. just goes to show that things are not as they seem when you go cheap. I have seen some of the chinese ones,where the welding is terrible inside,but mine looks half decent.But it definatly is a poor cooler.
Something like that I thougt! Seems like you like do things well done mate. Congratulations for the job
Small little mod again, bought some inlet sensor brackets, waste of money maybe but they do look kinda cool suppose to stop the sensor popping off and going into limp mode
Fitted some 8mm fuel hose to the braided lines where it comes close to the swivel hub and the drop link, I didn’t want it to rub through so this will hopefully stop that
Upgraded the washer jets today to a fan spray No pics of the spray yet as the battery is out of the car
Seat change! I wanted to get my lad in the car with me so needed new seats to put his baby seat in, also got the belts re done in orange
I absolutely Love this! so much orange I want an orange cage so badly after seeing this. How are the mist jets? do they work. I bought some kangoo ones which were terrible and just dribbled out may have to try these you've got.
Change of colour for the alloys! Just been fully striped and professional powder coated silver, just need the centre caps now
Been busy painting up the centre caps and wing mirrors, Halfords paint used and as in ocd about things looking right I took my time with this and the results are as oem! Very pleased Just need to do the passenger side now
What can I say, I fit the centre caps and the colour difference was to much for me ha! I thought I matched it well but when put against the wheels they weren’t I ordered some genuine caps for the basic Megane and the colour is spot on! So I’ll keep the standard centre caps for when I sell the car. But just a few pics of how well they look now
Looking super fresh, you were right to get the other centre caps... a lot of money but worth it for the OEM finish. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
this car owes you a few quid,and a hour or 2!..But it really is a absolute credit to yourself, to take the time to acheive a level of finish anyone would be happy with. I doubt if theres a finer older 225 in the country.I bet it turns heads whereever you go. My low mileage R26 always gets curious looks,as they are so rare down here,but it cant match the finish of your motor. Great work.
Another little job off the list today and yesterday, the roof strip covers came off to be painted as they make the car a little untidy so before and after pics here. I used stoneguard spray so should be quite tough paint.
Decided to upgrade the battery as You do and snapped an earth wire removing my old battery so sorted that out, bought a second hand battery tray and fabricated a backing tray to hold that and the ecu, came out well I think Decided to weigh it all coming out
Did you really drive your car, or it's just to stay in the garage? I really admire your attention to detail, but if you don’t enjoy the car, it’s not worth it!
I do enjoy the car pal, out in it all last weekend, be good to see what it’s like on track the the Quaife
