With the plugs in the side of the head id guess it 8v, though im not 100% on small Renault engines

Always the way mate, at least its not something really bad!

Glad to hear things are progressing guys, Matt, pop back on tomorrow and let us know what you find out, as Stan has said a leak down test is most def needed, it wouldnt suprise me if its nicked a valve and its not seating properly

If it went in with cams, un mapped then 155 could be possible i suppose matey, but again Matt has said he isnt very clued up with the F4R, though i agree saying the basics dont take very long to check. Of course, there are variances with rolling roads as we know, so 155 on one can be 175 on...

Pop back and have a re-read matey, it was RR'd to begin with. Yes it came out a little low, but as stated by Matt, it all 'looked' ok, just low on power, so it was put down to it being a poor one. We would know that that is a low figure and maybe have looked into it further, but anyone...

Id have 2nd thoughts if they havent touched an RS before mate, plenty of Renault specialists out there who wouldnt have a clue about the RS models, i was quoted £220for a cambelt change from a Renault specialist, and i had to explain to them they needed both the cambelt kit and aux belt kit and...

But how far do you go mate? I mean he wanted itb's fitting, should a car have its timing checked, leak down test etc before any work is carried out? He informed them of the spec, as far as he was aware the car was running well, it came in low on power and now they are trying to fix the...

Dad's got a Y reg 2001 1.0 Micra. When he got it, it could barely move under its own steam, unplugging the air mass meter made it run but stall, so i got a new air flow meter and that solved the running problem, apart from the idling. Basically it revs itself on idle, and the revs also can...

Your throttle body is cable operated, JMS's is electronic (Fly by wire) as it is off a Clio Ph2, yours is a Clio ph1

Is it wrong that i prefere the GTR?

Really like them, yes they have upside down Mondeo rear lights, but the TVR Griffith had upside down MK3 Cavalier lights lol, and i like the Ford V6, iv had 2 st24's and i rate them. Id have one any day :)

Funilly enough i was watching this last night

hows this coming along? :)

Lol expensive i bet!! Its how it should be, get it finished and get out and enjoy it! Oh, the later 911's had fans with fewer fins on, to get the engine a bit hotter and they tend to run better a bit hotter, just so your Dad knows :)

Is the engine standard mate? Really do like it :)

Looks stunning mate :) a real credit to your Dad

;) If the rest of the car is to the same standard mate it looks fantastic!

Im going to guess a 1976 911 Carrera

Porsche 911
