is there any car in the Renault range that has rear discs that will fit an r 19 a whole axle swap would do?

Question

im building a rally car and would like the extra braking power planning for a 250bhp motor to go with it.

its currently running drums

Answer 1

I'm sure the R19 16v had rear discs.

If not, consider using components from a Mk1 Mégane 2.0 16v, which should be simpler to fit to an R19 than anything from any other Renault, as the Mk1 Mégane platform was derived from that of the R19. The Mégane II has a completely new platform, with a different rear suspension system.

You might be able to modify something from a Clio 16v or Williams, or a Clio II 172 or 182. The Clio III has a different rear suspension system.

Answer 2

I own a 250bhp Lexus and would strongly urge you to do a proper sport brake conversion, I took big disc Brembos, fully supplied and fitted set me back just shy of £750 but I do stop on a dime when needed! This is a really important factor when upping the power and performance of any car. There are loads of other makes for sports parts, good luck with the project, would never catch me rallying my Lex!

Answer 3

Try looking into Renault Clio V6 Sport. This will feature Rear discs, i'm pretty sure of that. I know the Espace does too.

For rallying i'd get a quote on what a proffessional build system will cost!

Good Luck.
