    Steves Megane conversion build - She's finally running (VIDEO inside)

    :lol: thats epic! its really surprising how well it fits in, just use the clio mounts and bolt them on the meg engine and it slots in. i would recomend getting the loom made up by SteC, has made my build a lot easier. I had a similar impulse buy, the engine came up for a good price just down the...

    :lol: I'm always here to answer questions when you do the conversion. Not really that hard if you're handy with spanners. Never been in one but I'm pretty excited when I get it mapped

    UPDATE: An early update this weekend mainly because there have been issues. Today i tried to test the starter motor and that the immobilizer had been decoded okay. Bad news the engine was solid and wouldnt turn over by hand whatsoever. Looked at a few things like the starter motor, cambelt etc...

    which megane ecus work?

    litchy knows I think. If not give SC AUTOS a call, Steve can decode your ECU and tell you which ones work. He can also do your loom as well which makes it so much easier and neater when it comes to wiring up.

    Anti roll bar bushes

    Yes bit of an arse to do. You'd have to drop the subframe which isn't too bad but I can't see it being worth it for the effort.
