hi this is my little project. it started live as a R5 Campus, and now she will get a engine transplant and a suspension upgrade. on the to do list is a front adjustable suspension and a widetrack swap from a clio williams, rear suspension upgrade from a clio mk1 cup racing car, full 9-point sparco rollcage, full racing interior and a 1.6e megane engine swap. also on the to do list is a flocked clio 16v dash and wiring loom. this car will be a pain staking job to do but she will be something else when she is done :)
and now the pictures :)
my inspiration is a photoshop i made, this is roughly how she will look like when she is done:

Interesting project! :wink:

i think your English is excellent, if you manage to get that done it will be superb and your photoshopping skills are superb.
-
Thanx mate.
I only have one question. Does the williams widetrack fit on the five? Has it been done before? Because i'm a little affraid it will be too wide. Any ideas?
The plan s to have it drivable in 2-3 monts :) i'll keep you posted on the progres :)
-
I'm liking the look of this project :!: Hope all goes smoothly.
I've got a question tho. What is the difference between them white speeplines and willie wheels?

Thanx mate.
Those are willie wheels painted white and speedline stickers on them :)

this has just come in :) it's the adjustable front suspension from Koni :D Som mods will be required since they are for a mk2 clio but i think it will work.
(http://i948.photobucket.com/albums/ad325/jero_13/project%20super%205/315385_4335645428302_106366538_n.jpg)
and some adjustable billstein rear dampers:

(in comparison to a OEM williams damper :) )

And she is finaly on all her 4 wheels.
Fitted thesubframe, wishbones and dampers from a clio. it was almost a straight fit. you just have to modify the front right hole on the subframe.
the car is finaly ready to go to my place so it can get worked on :)
-
in the las couple of days i have worked on my little 5 a bit :)
I stripped out the dash and all the interior wiriing, since clios loom and dash are going ino the car :) then i managed to modifie the clios engine bay loom to fit the R5's lights and side repeaters. the car needs a good washing and the subframe needs some degreasing :/ currently i can't do much work becase the bad weather :(
But since it was raining i had a little time to play in fotoshop and this is what came out :)

me again :D
today i've started on the dashboard :)
stripped & test fitted
(http://i948.photobucket.com/albums/ad325/jero_13/project%20super%205/2012-07-24171129.jpg)
It still needs quite some mods to fit :)
and some other photos of the car :)

Looks like an interesting project. I like your Photoshop images. 8)

thanx mate :)

So tthe 5 project has moved on bit.
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/556312_10200238822192209_426520069_n.jpg)
The new front bumper :) She finaly looks as she shuld :) Since then i'have fitted the GTT front fenders, so the flares will fit perfectly. i just have to put the flares back together as they are in quite a bad nick.
The engine on a mk1 clios subframe, with wishbones from a mk1 megane, so the track is as wide as a Williams.

Because i did not have any sensors for the original 16v gauges, i have modified them so the holder fits the aftermarket gauges. This is what i have came up with:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/541915_10200327225442235_2132997769_n.jpg)
And i have got the new wheels for the little five. Because RETRO is how we roll

hi guys, i'm sorry for the delay, but i have been very busy.
Ok now the fruits of my labour :)
I have decided, since this is a racing car, I am going with the hydraulic handbrake, but i wanted to keep the original handbrake leaver. This is what came out:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/299803_10200741606241496_240173521_n.jpg)
and mounted:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/526793_10200953849147436_440853256_n.jpg)
Then we started to work on some camber adjusting top mounts. This was a pain staking job. But i have persevered and made this:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/601194_10200895126719412_1833561271_n.jpg)
and finished:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/7366_10200926907353908_1278083371_n.jpg)
After that i focused on the suspension:
Front subframe from a clio cleaned and de rusted:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/529243_10200945140209718_1948779370_n.jpg)
All welded up and test fitted the widetrack from a megane. the stabiliser bar was too long so it was trimmed to length later.

And assembled:

Then the rear suspension from a valver was fitted:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/527038_10200954441482244_2035026354_n.jpg)
And the front:

And i have managed to find a perfect back box for it too:

Thank you :)
This is a modified gauge holder from a clio 16v/williams and it was modified to fit some aftermarket gauges :) later that idea was abandoned together with the idea of clos dash inside the R5

No major updates. but i have mounted the passenger seat (no photos yet) welded the exhaust, and finished the brakes.
