LOL just purchased another C1J lump to rebuild to my old engine spec just in case I don't like the 172 LOL Apparently the 172 phase 1 setup has an Idle Control Valve? This i know I am missing so could also be my problem

Hello Ivan been a long time no speak matey, No am using a volvo T5 3bar fpr regulator and a cossie 044 fuel pump. But then the T5 fpr could be knackered how do you test these things?

Still not got a starter sorted been let down by what I hope is the postey and not a the fellow member so now trying to source else where. So in the meantime I spent the last couple of evening undersealing the car and I ended up spraying the underside of each arch Hamerite silver. You can just...

Not all as skilled as you Ashy otherwise I would have preffered to have done what you did as it does look much better

It's the only way to get the F4r lump in due to it being much taller than the original C1J. Not my cup of tea either hopefully will look better when sprayed tungy. :clown::lolup:

Looking good matey, am loving all this R5 projects going, keep the flow of pictures coming matey

My understanding is the 172 / 182 are F4r blocks that it is slightly smaller than the 197 block F4a something to do with the gearbox pattern / fitting being totally different hence not being able to fit a JC5 box to the block without modification to the block I believe is the same block is in...

C1j strong reliable lump if maintained and properly modded fueling, charge temps and regular servicing

Cheers Andy good to see you over here matey, I have found some documents with it on now

Pictures of 172 gearboxs showing the dowel location would be perfect Urgently required. Many thanks James

Hello all, This is a simple query but not having ever seen a 172 / 182 starter setup I am in need to know where the starter motor locating dowel goes or if it uses 1. If you have pictures please post them up. Many thanks James

I am using a standad 172 flywheel which I am assuming must sit slightly further back into GTT box than the GTT fly

Well tried the new starter which worked fine but it just wouldn't catch the flywheel to turn it over (New starter is an R5 GTT uprated version which is a laguna jobby) looks like I am going to have to source an proper 172 / 182 starter. tried with the spacer bush in different places aswell made...

I have picked up a similar t3 turbo but of a cossie my rear housing is a little different to yours.

Top job, Ashy out of interest what turbo is that your using ?

:o :(No - Awaiting a new starter motor to turn up as the original 172 jobby on the engine was fubbard.

I am using pearl engine mounts on the standard GTT rear bracket and the gearbox front, and on the engine front I am using an R5 GTX bracket which is and F series block similair to the f4r. You would use the same bracket for an F7p conversion into an R5 aswell

Re: Renault 5 F2000 Tarmac Rally / Sprint Car - Clio Williams conversion & overhaul Look very nice matey, looking forward to seeing it up and running matey
