Thats mint looks like that car was well taken care of its a french lecar or something like that isnt it ?I have a festiva and it works very well for spl so you shouldnt have a prob with that car being loud lol

yup, 1984 LeCar, aka Renault 5. ZERO rust. 114k engine rebuilt at 92k. Runs like new. Just needs new shifter bushings.

any plans on a install ???

Sikk Nation 04-30-2009 11:33 PM

I did.. but now I dunno if it's possible..the suspenion of this car is REALLY REALLY soft. and it;s rear torsion beams, so can't stiffen it up.. putting the spare tire in the trunk drops the car 3/4"

Was going to do a wall with 3 DD9510's...gotta find something out for the suspension

I've owned 3 Festivas.. the festiva is really stiff compared to the renault. (I Had a BP swapped festiva with G25MR Trans) renault is torsion rods though... nothing to make it stiffer.

could weld in some steel...but im gonna take a wild geuss and say u probably wanna drive the thing...lol

you'll probably have to get into converting it to a small set of leafs or springs and use a rear axle out of something else and bastardize the car.

get some pics of underneath if u can, maybe it will strike up some ideas from someone
