    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    I’ll say about £400 if I’m doing synchros and seals as well mate?

    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    Well generally 9 times out of 10 they’re repairable. The only time they’re not is when it’s damaged the casing and allows the oil to come through into the clutch housing. I’ve got plenty of spares to help keep costs down as well 👍🏻

    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    Yeah that’s the mainshaft bearing has failed mate and allowing it to move around - there will be metallic particles in the oil. Guaranteed lol

    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    In fact, that could even be a clutch cover failure after listening to it again. Drop the oil out your box and have a look at the colour and fit bits of metallic particles.

    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    Lolololol yeah that sounds pretty unhappy doesn’t it 😂 deffo sounds mainshaft bearing. Does your car run a speedo? If it does, then that box *should work, but quite why they’ve listed a jb3 box up as a 182 gearbox is beyond me!

    Clio 172 Turbo - Gearbox options?

    The dci boxes have shite ratios and are also no stronger than the 129. It’s the torque that kills the jc5 unfortunately. The only way to not kill them is run decent oil and change it regularly. The only potential option in terms of jc5 is to get the 089. They have taper bearings on the input...

    Gen90 DIY mapping/calibration thread

    You’ll always have power (12v) at the injectors mate. They’re fired by the ecu giving them an earth signal, so I’d say it’s possibly not the cal file.

    HELP - Gen 90 on phase 1 172 loom

    It’s already on here mate if you search. I know because I posted the sheet with the pins that need to be swapped.

    Monaco 172 Track Car

    The 16mm socket size plunger that sits in the bottom of the box can leak as well mate. If it’s been dragged around the floor, that plunger takes one for the team and gets scuffed up - I’ve seen them leak there as a result of the cap being damaged and it allows the oil to pass through, but...

    Monaco 172 Track Car

    It could even be leaking around the casing join tbf mate. The proper stuff for the casings is loctite 508, but I had a couple that despite being squeaky clean, leaked and had to come back to be resealed. Needless to say I switched over to loctite rtv sealant and never had an issue again...

    Longer 5th for a 172 box

    Yes mate. But you need a puller to get the gear off.

    Longer 5th for a 172 box

    Yes mate looks like it

    Longer 5th for a 172 box

    Ah yeah! Forgot about that! The biggest headache is getting one from Renault tbh.

    Longer 5th for a 172 box

    The gearbox you have is a jc5 130, and unfortunately the only way to get better mpg is to swap out the final drive for the ph1 172 item - gearbox code jc5 089. There aren’t any options for 5th other than making it shorter which isn’t what you’re wanting.

    Crank Tollerance

    Yes quite a few differences in the 197 engine to the 1*2.

    Crank Tollerance

    If it’s a 1*2 f4r I would imagine the oil pressure will be similar to the pressure of pissing into a bucket. They’re horrific and it took a lot of working out to understand why they’re so poor. It’s not just one thing either, it’s a combination.
  19. NorthloopCup

    Crank Tollerance

    Nope. R3 generally had better oil pressure because of a couple other areas were different to the 1*2 f4r. I used to modify the oil pumps for all the engine builds I’ve done, but it wasn’t just a case of shimming the oprv.

    F4R Flywheel Machining/Skim

    It’s not advisable to skim the f4r flywheel, but people have done it. Would I personally? No.
