11.2:1 CR will be fine, but you’ll need to run on decent Ron fuel, or have it mapped conservatively for whatever fuel is readily available over there mate. You’ll need a different set of plugs to the standard 172 items as well ideally.

You need to be careful how much you skim off the head as it can, and will have detrimental effects on the cam timing. Skimming a head to raise compression is not the done thing.

Deeper cup on the Quaife

I’m still an F4 phantom man myself. I was only a kid when the tonkas replaced them in frontline service. Behold, ‘Black mike’ in all his glory!!

Just the ends

Full de-pin of the plugs when I did mine. It was also custom, so didn’t have to worry about getting it back in the correct place as per oe. I don’t have a list for any plugs or terminals mate.

Tomorrow could well be the day then! Fingers crossed eh!

The Luftwaffe are currently doing a joint op with the brits at raf coningsby. Typhoons and GR4’s, so I’m surprised the GR4’s haven’t been through tbh. Cobra Warrior is the name of the exercise.

So is this a for sale thread? Or a ebay listing? There’s no link to a ebay listing, so I’m guessing it’s the former? We need prices and separate adverts for both cars I’m afraid. Pictures will also help any potential sales.

@lancecup i’ll have a 129 in soon for a rebuild that I’ll be rebuilding and selling if you’re interested?

It’s for a mk3 mate, so bolt spacing won’t be the same as on a mk2.

Yeah that’s the trouble with it mate. As you’ve said previously it’s all hit and miss. It’s worth joining the ‘Lichfield corridor group’ on bookface if you have it? Majority of stuff coming through the corridor is off on its way to the Mach loop, and there’s always regular posters on there...

There’s a LFA on mate that’s why.

This is another place I’ve been wanting to go for ages! Great shots there mate! Call sign for the tornadoes was voodoo too. ? Don’t ask me how I know that!! Lol!

@FatRS i’m in Lichfield mate. Look at the inner edges of the tyres up front. Another sign that the hub bearings are goosed.

Nice one James. ??

@SharkyUK those R3 items aren’t available from Renault!! It’s from rsport! I’ll get the details for you if mick struggles. ??

Yeah you’ll be fine then mate. ??

Drivers side or passenger side shaft? If it’s the passenger side shaft, I’d be amazed if it hasn’t killed your box as well. The needle rollers fall inside the box and the gears chew/grind them up.

Yes mate.

None mate.

Search for cup racer brake ducts. They worked and were simple mate.

That’s not strictly true mate. The f4r does spin the centre main bearing, blocks off the oil feed to the rods and woody woodpecker comes a knocking.

Great shots mate! Never been to RIAT, but I think I’ll have to go next year.

100% agree with you there mate.

@SharkyUK i don’t comment much in here, but I do follow the thread so I always check in when there’s an update. I feel like I’m one of only a few that could comment on actually building a modified car - and I don’t just mean lowering springs, air filter and exhaust modifications! I’m talking...

More important priorities at that mate. ??

My advice - make sure you get your monies worth out of that auc warranty mate!! You’re pretty much covered for everything except tyres, brakes and rattles. ??

Yes. All day long. Quiet when you want it and noisy when you don’t. Best exhaust for the mk3.

I think the word they used was testicles? ?
