I lost my iphone charger (well adam stole it)
So I went to CPW and they dont stock any nor did tesco etc. So I went to a stall in the town centre (you know the type)
Anyway He sold me a Vital Travel Charger for Iphone 3g..
So get home and plug it in, and the phone just keeps vibrating and...
Car is titanium
I was thinking of doing it silver (same as the exterior)
But now im thinking matt black or athermadite... thoughts?
The wheels are athermadite btw
Oh and the cage and the interior are staying the same colour! CBA with the hassle of masking it all up etc.
Hi dude to pick my rebuilt engine up on tuesday but today i got a call to say that autodata states that mains bolts should be replaced if they are removed.
There is no stretch data for them on my renault workshop manual.
I need a part number for them... f4r730
Or
Do they need...
Just thought I would share a few pics of where the new clio is upto..
Will do a full blog but a few cheaky snaps of where its at now... aiming for a bawls out 240hp 180 lbft NA track/fast road beast!
Needs to be done for FCS in 8 weeks. Owtch. All the work is DIY bar the BE build. So go...
Want to pain the short motor and cam cover while the engine is out/being re-built
I dont want a matt look but not toooo glossy if that even makes sense?
Also is it best to paint with brush or mask and spray?
Im going for
Red BE
stock alloy head
red cam cover
black sump
silver or blac...
I've got the stud, but how do you get it in tight? does it need thread lock etc?
My plan was to weld a piece of steel on top of the old nut and screw it down untill it gets tight? (i've got a new nut lol)
Just been offered a Kit same as this
http://www.noswizard.com/product_desc.php?id=59
For CHEAP.
Any problems with this on ITBs and high comp? I presume i would need a progressive controller?
I know this shizzle is chav, but it would be a nice boost and the kit is cheap!
Could I get it to work with the omex? It has a output on the new loom for the tacho but is the signal through CanBus? I.e would it need coding to run the sagem tacho?
I need the following for my build.
Oil Pressure
Oil Temp
Water Temp
And maybe the tacho if I cant get the renault one to work off the omex 600.
Want to keep costs down but also don't want any cheesey f**king raceX s**t.
Whats the advantages with electric/mechanical and how would i...
I have removed the renault ECU from my car. I now just run a Omex 600 with custom loom.
My car is a psh1 so i have a pencil sensor in the gearbox for roadspeed (off final drive)
How can i wire this to the clocks to bypass the old renault loom that I removed? Does it go though CanBus i.e does...
Just about to buy a clutch, my car will be making the above fiqures but probably a bit less!
Trying to save buying a helix/alcon etc.
Do you think it will just melt on track/fast road? lol?
WTF. This s**t is a total mess! I need to remove it to paint the interior and fit the cage, one of the previous owners must have had it put in! I think its the extreem stuff as it is silver backed?
It covers the whole rear of the car, I've been going about 30 hours so far and have removed...

Mine is a NA engine, so...
Can I claim if i have scratched the screen? the back is pretty battered and the front has abour 15 hairline scratchs on the edges.
Or is that just wear and tear?
Ie does it need to go down a grid? lol
All went smooth. Will upload pics later.
The bores look ok, few hairline vertical marks about 12mm long and not even on the scale how deep prop 0.000000002 mm deep about 2/3 per bore, is this normal? will the honing for the new pistons rid this?
Also the tops of the pistons were caked in...
As im getting rid of the OEM ecu I need a tacho and water temp for the car!
This one has the added bonus of oil temp and oil pressure! (which i was going to buy anyway)
Thoughs?
Will the sensors be electric or mech? Ive can power the revs off the OMEX
Failboat?
Just took delivery of a OMEX race loom for the clio :D
I can now loose 99% of the renault engine loom and the OEM ECU!
The bay is going to look uber neat as im only running about 12 sensors :D
Also going to relocate the ECU to the dash and run a gromit through the firewall!
The loom is...
Hi got my pistons the other day in STD size (82.7mm) the rings are 83.0mm.
How do you shorten a ring by 0.3mm? Machine shop?
Also what size should the ring gap be? I take it you fit the ring and piston into the liner then use a tiny feela (sp) guage to measure to gap between the two ends...
Woosner alloy 12:8:1 Pistons
Total Steel Rings
ACL big end bearings in STD size
Gylco Mains in STD size
Glyco end floats/thrust washers
Bottom end gasket kit for F4R 730
Tri Ply steel head gasket
ARP 2000 big end bolts and lube
New cambelt kit and...
Cat list two cams for the F4R in 422 spec.
One keeps the VVT and one looses it.
Could I just rid of the VVT pulley and fit a exhaust pulley in its place? Or if you removed the VVT would you need to play with timing outside of the standard position?

Not for me lol,
Just helping a mate, he wants a new cup with recaros, aircon, speedlines plus other options etc.
What would he be paying if he shops around? Renaultsport forum etc
FFS, the b*****d is slipping! (its only done 16k too)
Felt w**k when i got it TBH! But hey ho!
Dont want to spend uber amounts of cash either, I seem to remember that volvo 440 turbo clutch fits with some filing lol.
215mm one iirc?
Any other ideas?
