It wants rechecked imo chap to be sure, they're very finicky the belt replacement jobs on these engines and easy to get wrong

Who fitted it, and was it tensioned correctly. Sounds to be like it's been over tensioned

Ooft that last pic....incredible stuff

Look spot on to me @Ant1 you happy?

sound, let me know if they look genuine, correct etc etc and I'll get a set ordered I reckon @Ant1

did these show up then as expected @Ant1

Mega deal, if it works out @Ant1 let me know as I'll buy a set for stock

Tbh on an obviously fast car that does nothing for me, needs to be a 1970 Talbot with a rb26 or something to make it work

Diff float will cause excess heat which will lead to the oil changing colour and darkening so that was probably the issue. The welded clip will do nothing to sort the play in the diff and fact it popped again and took the welds with it means those diff bearings are proper fucked

Nice, same sentiment from me too, solid price for a solid car and glad to see a Renault spec refurbishment to standard .

Nice Although isn't a slow shutter something the older gentleman suffers from

there's a thousand other things to sort on a clio for track use before aero imo

pants! loves to kick you in the teeth this thing doesn't it @Djw John hope you get it sorted!

Looking clean

RTOC facebook group, or Renault Turbo one

Slicks fitted to freshly powercoated track wheels Two weeks to Caldwell and ready I think. Had tracking done and tweaked exhaust fitment too Cheers Ben

Looks really clean that, nice purchase! Needs black insert headlights though imo

Concentrate on the house move matey, the car will work, it's basically done. I think a diffuser may sway my opinion on the rear end aswell so I vote do it! And get those wheels sorted, disgraceful ??

Looking on point. Semi slicks are heavy though! My full slicks on superleggera weigh in at 11kg a corner

Defo @Ant1 got too of been the cheapest one about

Yeah none genuine shocks are crap, bin them and run the genuine

Amazing the colour premium for LY, like you say it's a 1000 quid car in silver. Still, tidy up and it'll be worth more than you paid so laughing

yeah he's top bloke, has been in the Renault scene for years, its just his mk2 rep that's on the up and up now.# As said the map on my track one is cracking and peak power for a stock internally engine is mega :-) @Rbdezlee your car does look lovely too, more motivation for me to sort my shed out

AI the SMS RS2 Inlet makes huge difference, give up a little peak torque for peak power but works well. Not sure I'd bother on a road car though. My track car runs 212bhp/159lbft on the RS2 @Rbdezlee my RB belts were done by Mick at Diamond and it ran 170bhp/147lbft at Surry rolling road on...

wowsers how did I miss this thread! and my car's old loom is in it as well. I was cursing Danny when I bought his shell with no wiring in it! lol! I presume the thing hasn't seen the road yet, the trials and tribulations of mk1 F4R conversions! Good luck @Daniel and hope to see it out soon...

Quick spin out and boot strip back on

Decent price, welding takes ages

Possibly, I should perhaps of paid more attention, was just happy to see another mk2 in use

Pretty sure there's a few 200+ 172's and there was a trophy over 180k good few years back but don't think in daily duties anymore. Straight 182's don't know of any higher currently but ready to be proven wrong No reason to not use it either, everything seems fine , no warning lights and just...

Maybe I should do a crowd funding thing, for 3 pounds a month you could save this RB from the scrappers ?
