Its not a GTT, but still (I hope) an interesting R5. It is 1993 red Renault 5 Campus.

Engine:
swaped 1.4 8V Energy lump (E6J, 80HP)
mild DIY head word
JB1 046 gearbox from Renault Express (4,2 FD)

Suspension:
complete front suspension from R5 GTT with shortned standard spings :roll:
H&R lowering springs (-40mm) - jet to be installed

Brakes:
GTT calipers
Lucas discs
Trusting/Fritech (race) pads

Wheels:
original 13" steelies with 165/60-13 Falken ZE-502 tyres
6Jx14 OZ F1 CUP - must send them for sand blasting and powder coating (in black)
195/45-14 Toyo T1S tyres

Interior:
R19 1.8 16V seats
GTT stearing wheel + 5cm spacer

Exterior:
stock beside some holes in front bumper :lol:

I'm waintg for some orderd parts to come: oil and water temp. gauges (2") + tachometer, used racing seats and some other small stuff.

Plans:
extensive head work
bigger carb (probably 32/34 or 32/36 Weber/Solex)
GTT grill
...
