You would be suprised how much parts I have and how much access I have to certain parts as my best friend runs a garage so we get a lot of bits at trade or less too, it's only really the R3 parts that I will struggle on i.e Engine components such as uprated cams, pistons, etc. but I'm in the...
My old RB 197, miss it! Can't wait to get another.
Didn't do too much, 18" Megane Alloys, RS Splitter, Silicone hosing, Panel Filter, Map, De-cat, cup dampers, some interior removed, but fitted back when sold.
Thats why I haven't bought the car yet, but I'd be most at home in a clio compared to what ever else I've driven but obviously with racing its a whole different ball game.
Do you know where I can see all of the series? I haven't seen that many to be honest.
Yeah I've seen the battery moved to the boot on most, or that Varley Redtop battery used instead.
I know they are basically two different cars, but a lot of teams start off with a 197 and either give it to a company who change the whole thing and gut it out or do it themselves, this will be a...
I've tried to find the Marelli ECU online to buy but can't find it :S.. It is the Clio V6 airbox though isn't it? And I've found a single exit R3 exhaust and manifold. Just getting the easy parts first. Thank you though appreciate your advice!
I know it is well out, I'm thinking of doing an R3 conversion on a normal 197 but not sure yet needed to know every detail other than the obvious, some companies do an R3 kit you can buy to convert your 197 for probably just under 10 grand but I think I'll be able to source some of the parts...
Hi there,
Really need some help here.. Could someone list the parts used on a Clio R3 different to the 197? or provide a spec sheet/notes for the R3?
Thanks :)
Thanks Liam, yeah before it switched to the 197/200 one..
Yeah lol the scirocco the first diesel I've had & all I've had before that are performance cars so it gets boring, only benefit is its a nice car and the miles I get from petrol but still, BORE, LOL.
yeah I've had it for nearly 2 years now, kept it because of the way petrol prices just rocketed but getting rid when my insure is done, funnily enough I wanted an Audi TTS, so kind of defeats the object of petrol saving lolol.
Thanks man :)

I sold my RB 197 earlier on this year, and bought a white scirocco TDI instead.
I can honestly say I've never missed a car so much in my life. Those who might remember me from before (JASON197) might remember when I bought that shell, never even got round to doing anything on that as worked...
