This is the total cost of what it cost me to the spec it went too. It can be done alot cheaper (depending on what you want) and if you fit it all yourself. Thank you all for watching, hope you've enjoyed this mini series 😊
It’s mad how the cost mounts up isn’t it, I was also shocked and I did it in the ek9 which is a much simpler swap. People always say k swap is cheap but it’s far from it
never never never! and i mean it never! calculate how much you have spent on a car lol! no wonder you moved the country to clear that depression haha! good video as always! very informative!
I think the rear ARB isn't installed properly, it sits too low. There's a L shaped bracket there where it clamps to the shock absorber bolt that is put upside down and it makes it sit too low
Quite possibly mate, I know they sit low but maybe it’s abit too low eh. I haven’t got the car anymore unfortunately, I moved out to Australia, but I’ll try and get hold of the guy so he can check 👍🏻
😄😄 Thanks very much mate! Loving it out here 🇦🇺 Hope everything is all good your side. Looking forward to seeing your hill climb ventures this year 💪🏻🏁
@@GEARED_MrLucas what part of my home country are you in? If you're in Victoria. There is a clio meet up in Melbourne on the 2nd of Feb. From my understanding, there is another occurring the same day in Sydney NSW. Pop into the OZRS forum for more info if interested. Wish we had something similar here in Perth 🥲
@gorsair7458 Hi mate, currently in Sydney, been here for about 2 months now! But moving onto Perth next week. The plan was to go to Melbourne and Adelaide, but going to go there in the future I think. Drop me a message on instagram if you've got it mate @geared_mrlucas
@@GEARED_MrLucas You can definitely see the money that has been sunk into this car, it looks incredible. Well done to everyone involved. Hope you enjoy Perth, we are heading into the fun bit of summer now. Remember to slip slop slap :)
Shoutout spooner restorations lol reason he went out of business, shocking quality on the rocker covers. Mine was flaking and peeling after less than 500 miles and about 6 months, same happened to loads of mates and he was a knob about his warranty jobs. Said he couldn’t keep up with them and then guess that’s why he shut up shop Wrinkle red is probably not as bad but even I can do that and it comes out perfect with the normal canned stuff you get
Yeah, it's not the best thing to do 😄 People wanted to know how much it was so I thought why not - But never again 🤦🏻♂️😄 It's actually sold again since... so I'm not sure who's got it now to be honest
@GEARED! just seen that video new tobthe channel. Mate your living the dream enjoy, if younget a chance Botswana safari rhulani park then the victora waterfront cape town to relax for a couple of days in comfort. Amazing. Good luck stay safe brother
Thanks mate! Yes we did in the end. It was due to it being a Renault pedal basically, so Motion Motorsport put a stopper high up on the pedal itself, so it wouldn't go past that point. Felt really good in the end 💪🏻
@@teameliteuk2023 No worries. The rev counter works fine up until 8200, but because it goes beyond that and past where its meant too, it just hasn't got a clue 😄 people put ep3 clocks in or a digital dash of some sort to be fair. It's one of the only ones working with mk2 Clio clocks
Yes and no... it's one of them. It depends 👀😄 But as far as I'm aware, you're meant to have one... but TVR's and others don't have one as standard and they pass
Yeah I'm still away mate, I haven't got it anymore 😄 This was recorded a while ago. Alot of people were messaging asking how much it costs, so I thought I'd put it together
Combien vos un k20 aujourd'hui sir même comme sa si tu le vend pense à bibis comme sa je pourrais dire que je les acheter en Angleterre et que la bha c est ça 😂 la police et la mécanique sa fait 12 😂 ❤si tu le vend à pas chère sa peux m intéressé
@@GEARED_MrLucas Not saying you're lying. Saying they've overcharged you somehow mate. Completely understand there's a some fabrication work, but it's a relatively simple engine swap (fwd 2.0L engine into fwd 2.0L engine bay) and they're a shop that specialises in custom swaps fabrication. You can whip an F4R out in 3 hours if you know what you're doing. Lets say a day in welding & then painting.. Then a day in re-fitting the engine and connecting the harnesses up. That's 2.5 days. Lets be generous and give them a day fault finding and trouble shooting. So around 30 hours. Where's the other 15 hours = £1200? Genuinely intrigued!
@@JMcKaySV It was the first with this kit, things were getting developed on it. They had it for a fair amount of time (alot longer than 3 days) 😄... So I was more than happy to pay that amount. Not sure what they're charging now... It may have changed, but this was purely what I paid at the time of doing it
He is keeping it cos he clearly not getting a 13k price tag. You can get a meglio for £7.5k that would pull harder and handle just as good if bot better on track. I know cost of living has gone up but some people live in a bubble with some of the prices they expect for their modified motors
@@trackd7079 you be happy to part 13k for it? Have you seen the caliber of cars you can get for 13k. Dont get me wrong its a sick little car but it aint 13k worth regardless of the build effort
@@scott2495 I would pay 13k for it, I nearly brought it in fact just something else I wanted more came up forsale, it’s a unique build and so much potential for more power and different avenues. We are not all gonna agree but I’d rather something different than a financed car every man and his dog is driving
