No, it is competitive in 2.0 too, but in this season the rules changed so I need to add 100kg as soon as my car is too light (all three doors are now plastic with polycarbonate windows and so on). I didn't want to do this and prefer to decrease the engine volume :)
It is F4P crank (not F7P)...
I take part only in some local semi-professional timeattack championship, however I have two garage neiborhoods - one take partin RTCC, another one take part in RRC - and both use in car adjustable bias. Really I hope that as soon as I will select of true front/rear master cylinders (currently I...
Make new brake disks, with AP Racing rotors and floating mount (right) - size is near the same (285mmx25.4 mm) but with bigger P.S.D. and Air Gap. Will weight both tomorrow (forgot my scales today):
Yes, this is close to what I want to do - make it lower and wider. However I want to do this with PM's wishbones, so I need to buy Lanuna uprights and hubs etc - to small time as soon as our local championship will start it two weeks and I have a lot of things to do before this (including 150 mm...

The stroke is shorter, hoever I have +4 mm com rods. I am not worry about pistons at all as soon as I can easily make the custom pistons. The main question is the crank - the custom crank is very expensive ...
Some bad news from our local timeattack championship ... It seems that I need more then 100kg of weight with my current 2.0L engine. Or build some new 1.8L engine :(
Any ideas about Renault's F4P engine? It seems the only difference is the cranckshaft and pistons, isn't it?
They are available here, but too expencive - so I prefer to buy most parts in UK or USA. The main problem is to get some heavy parts - like cranckshaft or cylinder head as soon as very few sellers are ready to send them to Russia :(
Already got most of parts for new build. Now I need do decide...
Yes, it seems that the spring was the primarily reasons. It was CatCams springs, specially for F4R73x engine with hihght lift cams. I bought them near 3 years ago (not from CatCams but somwhere else) and all that time they was somewhere in my garage. Unfortunately I didn't save the box, so can...
