okay cheers for the help.

Oh okay, im building it for track use only really so thought the ACL bearings would be good. What bearings you recommed then for track use? Iv already got a guy sorted out that will be doing all my machining thanks anyway.

Yep thats exactly right. Bought a engine a while back and was scored to f**k and rust build up in the bores so pretty much a scrap engine but would have maybe been alright with a rebore and a new head lol. This engine looks sweet, running engine and once stripped everything looks good, cam...

Its a second engine away. Bought it to rebuild it as mine is on 120,000 miles now and it's a year project lol!

Hmm all the say is F4R 730 or F4R 740, 741, 780, 700, 701. Is there a engine no. on the block that will have one of these no. stamped on it?

Yer thats kinda seems right as the F4R 730 is 11. 1 comp ratio and the other one is 9.8 .1.

Hi all, just been doing a bit of resurce as im in the process of rebuilding the cup engine and have come across a renault technical data PDF and now getting a bit confussed lol. I know they are all F4R engines but don't understand the (F4R 730 or F4R 700 - 780) as they have different compression...

Might be interested in this!, Bedford not that far really :).

I work at Nissan in penge on the corner and saw you drive past.

Didn't get the reg, only saw if for a split second and then heard the rest lol!!

Just was outside work having a fag and this yellow 182 drive past, I thought lovely... Not till he gave it out of the side turning and on the Croydon road I found out it was turbo lol!! Anyone one on here! By the way very nice :) rich

Fair point about the £500 budget, might be better to do the half day one as two hours at brands will be good fun as its a small track, and it's close to people.

Oh okay, it's just the thought of driving there, doing a full track day and then driving back. I'm liking the idea of staying in a hotel tho! I fancy doing snetterton so might have to think about this and look up prices.

How far away is snetterton from London?

I could be up for this!

Looking sweet mate! Cooksport defo make it sit nice. When do you want me to come over to get mine polished up lol ;)!!! Yep, sounds like a plan! Maybe find some good lanes to try out the cooksports :).

Oh cheers mate thought they where oil pressure but wasn't sure! thanks

Thanks for all you help lads, I get the bit about loosening the pulleys to take up the Slake in the belt, basically like anyother cam belt that has flouting pulleys. I just really want to know if the dephaser is under any tension when the belt is still on?? So when I remove the belt the dephaser...

thanks for the help mate but unsure why you say rotate the belt and pulleys backwards twice? dont you mean clockwise twice? and using the exhaust pulley shouldn't it be crank?

what guide?

Yer i know the timings out but i really want to know weather i can remove the belt and the dephase will or wont move?? i know how to change a cambelt!, im just unsure on how these dephaser work when changing the belt??

Replacing the belt on my clio 172 cup and iv come accross a problem: The timing tool that goes in the cams to lock them in place is not lining up on the inlet side, looks like it needs to be rotated anit clockwise. But looking at the dephaser side the marking on the rocker cover to the markings...

ALD, looks like you know what your doing! Fancy doing a head for me ;) lol?

Very nice head work! Where was this done???

Your auxiliary pulley doesn't look all that, flapping about in the video? That might be the issue if the bearing f**ked!!

Dont these clio have a throttle learn? When you disconnect the throttle body sometimes they need to... basically learn where normal idle is. Mine done this for about 30 miles after i fitted matched inlets and ported throttle body, and then was fine.
