I would check the connection going into the Xap unit on the bulk head. Its a twist type connection - make sure its secure. Also there is quite a few bolts within the Xap unit - it might be worth disconnecting the battery and making sure all the connections are tight - take the cover off and...

Just the plug on the loom to change physically. Not sure about ECU's - Im using mine with a Omex. Might work with standard ecu or Magneti Marrelli? I was still having problems with mine even with the Zetec sensor but Omex very kindly send me a new ecu to sensor shielded cable and it has been...

Sideways Danny? You usually like showing your Omex settings off? :)

Ive got Denso Iridiums in mine. Had major problems since but probably not down to the spark plugs. Think I will get a set of the NGK.

Are the Denso Iridiums ok or does everyone recommend NGK?

Hi would anyone be kind enough to let me know what your Cranking settings are on your Omex. Mine are all standard from Omex. If your value's have been customised I would be very interested to see them if you would let me. These come under: Cranking Menu > Start Fuel Pulse Table Start Fuel...

Hi everyone, How similar are the 182 and 197 F4R engines? Could you bolt a 197 F4R into a 172/182? Dave.

If anyone with a 197 Cup fancies a swap give me a shout. :)

Yeah mate your putting your stuff on my trailer remember. :D Will see you there. Northloopcup - thats pretty interesting because the renault coil packs dont seem the best. Might swap it for a Zetec one. :)

Will take some updated pics of the car at the weekend.

Got the car out on the 23rd May. Was with my temporary bracket for the crank sensor and unfortunately by the end of the day the bottom on the sensor was worn through because the gap was wrong. Very hard to make up a bracket and get the gap perfect without removing the gearbox. So was chasing...

Wtf? Today started it again. Last time was Monday night when all was well. Started. Idling away. Pottering about and car cuts out. Strange I think and go to restart it....won't start. Pulling my hair out all day it looks like the ecu isn't earthing the fuel pump blue/White wire...

I have one of these airboxes with the big single feed if anyone wants it. Was on my clio when I got it. Wouldn't want too much for it.

Need to do a update on this as a lot of work has gone on since Jan. Back then it was too cold to go out to the garage but its warmed up a lot. A new engine mount was going to be about £130 so I extracted the stud and replaced it. Its fitted back on car. Had to take the ARB off to fit the...

I had another Renault sensor and made the bracket so that the Zetec sensor would be sitting in the same place as the Renault sensor. This was a gamble because the Zetec sensor might have needed to sit closer or further away but the car runs so it must be ok.

I did pretty much the same as Cro-Clio - used a old sensor and chopped the sensor off just leaving the bracket then attached a L shape bracket to it and bolted the Zetec sensor to that. I have the part no - can post it up later.

Running funny - was settings I had changed on Omex over winter to try and get it running again. Mainly Idle Fueling. The start map from Omex says to have the Idle Fueling table at 0 so I did this with mine. Put it back to how it was and it was fine again. Bit stupid on my part - the standard...

Well don't want to jinx it but it started with the Zetec sensor - touch wood. It's running a bit funny - doesn't want to idle and races away if you push the throttle to try and hold it revving at a constant speed. Need to try and get that sorted but it was doing it when I got it started a few...

Well ecu has been away getting tested. Results - im going to try a Zetec sensor. The ecu is hopefully on it way back to me. Ordered a sensor. No brackets available so I am going to have to make a temporary one to try it. Wish me luck... :( Ive booked onto RS Trackday on 23rd at Knockhill...

Hey everyone, Who sells the bracket to fit these to a Clio? Cheers, Dave.

Fred, I have changed Omex jumper and also filed the CPS so I could try moving it closer but no joy. Under the sync options on the Omex you can view the info as a table or graph. If you view it as a graph and crank the car over - it's fast but you can see it following the graph line.

Changed table to what you said Matt. Also tried new cable for CPS. Still no joy - Wont sync.

Doesn't sync with plugs out. Stat Sync Off. The ECU is bolloxed, it's got to be.

Hey Matt, Thanks for replying. I will try taking the plugs out today and see if I get sync. I do see engine speed and sync errors when the engine is turning over so it seems to be getting some info. Errors seem to be counting to 4. If you move the sensor slightly when adjusting it too...

Still having problems with it. It just wont sync. Actually got it started and running last week so I know the engine and timing is ok. Just cranks over and over and says Stat Sync off. Spoke to Omex, Andy suggested changing MX Start time but didn't help. The hols don't help at the...

Is tour de force - TDF? I'm in Fife, Scotland so long way to take it to someone or prob would of a while ago.

Hi all, Can anyone help with Clio 172 Race Cup car? Long standing problem - it had the Renaultsport loom and ecu on it and developed a starting fault. It just would not start up. Thought ecu was at fault so changed to Omex 600. Got it started but its never been easy to start since the...

Can anyone help with this? Where the subframe mounts to the chassis - at one side it has a rubber spacer - at the other it doesnt. Seems to make the sub frame wonky. Noticed it when fitting new ARB bushes - the bracket at one side fitted between the subframe and underneath of the car - the...

The problem is though the metal braket in the picture about only has about 15mm of thread. Take it the bolts are pretty small??

Replacement from Rsport was going to be £100 in total. £30 for bearing. £70 for metal part. What a joke. So I extracted the stud and replaced it. You could use a bolt as well mikekean, would work fine, I just decided to replace the stud. Getting there with all the wiring changes. I had...
