Hi guys,
greetings from NZ. I have a Renault 17TL that I am restoring and have got an 843 motor & 5spd box from a fuego GTS to put into the car. The thing is this, will the power steering rack fit too? I would like to change it to power steer if possible, as it has wider tyres on 15 inch rims that make it a bit heavy to steer. Handles heaps better with them on tho'!!
Any suggestions re: the 5spd box would be appreciated to, I am picking that it is just going to be a case of making up a new gearbox crossmember for the rear of it. Any thoughts?
By the way, cool site, a resource that my brother and I (rebuilding an R12- trying to convince him that the R17 motor and R18 5spd are the way to go- help please!!) could have done with a while ago.
Cheers Ben
