Did a quick buy on ebay on a megane coupe sport thinking it was f7r but don't think its the right one. said it was a 2.0 16v on the the advert but I've just read that there is a f5r engine that the megane uses aswell. it's it a similar engine?

Sounds better then I thought haha. it will be for sale soon as I'm changing engines in the new year

Had a little think about engines and ive got a 2.0 omega engine and running gear. its got around 130 hp and is a good runner so i might have a look into doing a little tuning with that and see what happens. not going to be easy fitting it, but im sure i will come up with something lol. still no phot...

Hello, yep pissing it down here to lol

Looks like I'll be going for omega box maybe. just means I'll have to go for a different diff lol and make a new tranny tunnel lol

I'll be making a exhaust for it in the week if I have time.
