i own R9 and i love it and its my daily driving car lately the fuel prices gone high and i want to swap an F4R or F4P engine in my car problem is i cant weld any engine mount in car Chassis or the car will fail in registration inspection and i notice some R5 owners swapped F4R with no top mount i know that two mounts of gear box will fit the 3ed mount in engine block will it fit to ????

Welcome to the forum!

You want to swap a 2.0 engine into a Renault 9?

This would be excellent!


I do not know about the engine mounts - maybe someone here has swapped the F4P/F4R into a Renault 5?

These threads might help?

Hello, Just thought I would share my latest project with you chaps, some of you may find it interesting, some may not... But here goes... I've been into R5gtt's for about 6 years now and owned nearly ten of them. My latest project was given to me in the form of a fairly tatty rolling shell...

Either redrill your original front engine mount to fit f4r or use 1.7 front engine mount, should bolt straight on. Use stock gearbox mounts, well use vibratechnics or similar as the original rubbers are too soft

Could you submit the car for the registration inspection and install the third engine mount afterwards?
