What do you think of this idea? One of my sons is heavily into bike and car modding, and has had this idea for a hot but stock looking Note. He theorises that as the Note is based on a stretched Clio platform, there should be little difficulty in slotting in a Williams lump. Of course being a young man, he didn't think of also fitting the brake system from the Clio until I suggested it! Somehow I don't think the standard rear drums would be up to the job.
Anyway, he is now on the hunt for a cheap 1.4 or 1.6 Note and a crashed 172, 182, Gordini 200 or similar. The last thing he built was a Triumph 'old school' chopper that does about 5 miles before running out of juice, due to a combination of STUPID horsepower and a tank the size of a potato 'see photo'. I now own this noble steed, and my neighbours think I'm a mental case for actually daring to ride it. (Little do they know about my secret past as a circus performer. I was the first elephant in Europe to ride the Wall of Death, with Dingaling Brothers and Bunkum and Bogey's Circus back in the late 70s'. It's TRUE I tell you!).
its the other way round clio is based on nissans b platform, the willams is pre renault/nissan parknership
the note is more like the livina and versa biggest lump is the mr18de when this is turbocharged/supercharged its good for 350 bhp what is more than enuff for a fwd car biggest problem with engine conversions on modern cars is the hi and low can buses there are ways around this ie. standalone ecu's also dont forget that a lot body systems are monitored via the IPDM on most nissans since 2003
2.0 or 2.2 from a late almera would be an option but a tad heavy
uprated disc's and rear discs would be nice esp with that sort of power
Okay so i've been making my car as nice as possible recently, interior exterior, service, the whole lot. And i've also opted to installing an aftermarket radio... a chinese one at that. It's almost fully integrated, bar i need to T-Tap to the original ground due to ground loop on chassis and the...
Good morning all, after reading some of the helpful links on this forum regarding the heater switch not working on no,s 1 & 2, I have removed the heater blower resistor from behind the glovebox. The resistor doesn't really have any tell tale markings (codes etc on it itself). I did a search for...
Hi newbie here. Over the weekend I took ownership of 2006 E11 1.4se note. (needed a run about quickly). I have searched through most of the threads on here regarding swapping the Factory fit stereo and most seem to lead to conversation about connect 2 & 3 etc. As one poster previously asked is...
