Hi I'm Carl, I'm 15 years old and from Grantham
Since its my summer holidays I thought I would try get myself a project, which hopefully should be a 340/360
I'm heavily into my Honda's and drifting, But unfortunately I can't afford a honda for my first car so I was looking around for cheap drifters and discovered the 300 series.
As I read more about there drifting potential I decided I want one, and with my insurance at 17 being quoted on the right side of £1000 it seems like the only option I have for a fun car as my first
I've read that you can swap renault 16v engines into the 340, My dad has a breakers yard and we have a 97' renault megane 2.0 in, would this drop straight into a 340?
Thanks for reading
Carl

Have read of that and it should answer many questions about the conversion.

Thanks for that mate, just having trouble finding a car close to me now
Re: Soon to be young Volvo owner
Surely there are only 2 Honda's I can think of that can do this sort of thing - maybe 3 or 4 if you count the Honda Beat and S600/800Carl15 wrote:into my Honda's and drifting
Plenty of info about the place regarding the 16v swap. Have a read about engine mounts and propshafts beforehand though and yep, I'd earmark that Megane...
