It's possible that there is some internal differences, but I can't see that being the case personally. As you've seen, both are 200 cup shock part numbers, so I'd just go with whatever is cheapest (which is what I did when I fitted the 200 cup shocks to my ff 197)...

I didn’t notice much of a noise change on the V6 box, but possibly because the exhaust was so noisy. Car looks unreal.

Yellowstuff are very poor, not what I'd recommend. A complete waste of money. A Mintex M1144 or M1155 would be way more suitable for your application (M1155 front and M1144 rear is a great combination). I can't answer your questions around dust and disc wear, but by their very nature, you would...

Well you either start it up and hope it passes through without damaging anything, or take it apart to retrieve the errand piece :tearsofjoy:

It will still crank with crank sensor failed. Battery needs load testing properly. If that's ok, the battery fuses. If they're ok, then start looking through the power cables and earths.

Well the shafts are the same, so you'll possibly be in the same situation again. The gearing will be completely to shit (if you didn't already know).

I know someone who did the opposite if that’s of any use

Proper tidy!

That’s not what I said. But they’ll certainly wear much faster with the wrong oil in the box.

Thicker oil won’t be helping, as @burrellbloke can attest to. Stick with the standard grade. The weak link is always going exist on these. Just treat it as a wear item as you would anything else.

Whatever way you look at it, generally speaking, putting a Megane engine in it will cost at least double what it would putting another 197 engine back in it.

Why are you rebuilding if you’ve consistent dry figures?

Mega. Done a wicked job! Easiest thing to do is email the pics to yourself and select a lower quality.

They’re hard to come by. Renault do still sell them but they’re expensive.

We need some pics of the damage behind the bumper

A spot weld drill bit will help get all those useless brackets removed too…. https://share.google/Apymv2K6iQhWCTLLQ

They’re slightly different. 197 is 830 engine code, 200 is 832. The 200 has tweaked cam geometry, but essentially there’s no real change. The difference in gearbox between the 197 and 200 is more noticeable.

Apologies, I thought it was a Meglio. Ignore me. I'd still check connections.
