I'm DIEING here! Did the centre main spin???
Progress looks good mate. Just rip all the lines out and run new copper. Willwood make an adjustable bias valve so you can get your front and rear correct and don't need the parts from a cup. I have one somewhere actually. I did it on my PH1. Sadly...
You tying yourself in a big knot here.
The ECU doesn't 12v live the trigger wires on the coil, it earths them.
The coil needs a solid 12v supply then the ECU just earths it depending if it wants to fire the coil for 1-4 or 2-3.
Forget absolutely everything.
If that car doesn't have 12v...
Crank sensor and TDC sensor is the same thing and it produces a signal for the ECU to understand where the engine is in the cycle and how fast it's spinning. The ECU processes this information into an RPM signal ( same as crankshaft sensor signal, just a different way of saying it.)
When the...
That engine makes the F4R look fit for a lawnmower.
Steel crank
Steel rods
Nicocil (sp) lined
Solid lifters
Girdle plate
Alloy block and head
These are just some of the plus points as standard.
Before you do anything, check the ECU is seeing an RPM signal when cranking and make sure the fuel pump restarts pumping when you trigger the starter motor.
THEN
Check the coil plug for a live with someone else cranking the engine over. I'm sure from memory it's a 4 pin plug with only 3...
Depends if who ports it knows enough about Renault heads to port it out enough to be a ported and polished ph1 head. Would take hours tho I'd guess.
I think I have one. I'd have to look and see tho.
The EP3 is one car that was almost so good but IMHO failed.
Ive had a lot to do with these recently and as standard the handling is disappointing, the rear end feels very disconnected.
The engine is an awesome unit but IMO the Vtec comes in too late as standard making them terrible if you...
That is a very strange comment to make IMHO.
What do cars that need a turbo feel like?
With a proper set up with throttle angle waste gate duty cycle mapping and a turbo spec that doesn't run out of puff with high revs I think it would be a fantastic set up.
The trouble with the FRP in...
Breaking it for parts!
It was the chavyest pile of s**t I've ever seen and I wanted to test my new petrol powered angle grinder so me and some mates cut the roof off and went for a spin.
