1800 F7P 16v Conversion (Updated 10/09/07)

That sure looks nice

It sure comes close to radiator that intake manifold, relocating filter is good idea, but I don't know how sharp corners exactly start to cause restrictions to intake side, anyway one thing to keep on mind

what do you think about running motorbike carbs like R1 carbs?

Post by **Frits** » 12 Sep 2007 06:07 pm

That's done before. But for a daily driver I would go for the original injection system!

Just out of curiosity dude what strut brace is that? An what kind of money do they go for? did you notice much difference with and without it? I think I could do with one ideally

Post by **340GLT** » 08 Oct 2007 11:48 pm

No more engine bay shots no. TBH you dont need them
Its a renault ECU painted up

Strut brace is a one off made by myself. Not for sale.

sorry for dregging this one back up.

im getting closure to getting mine sorted.

im stuck on the loom more than anything. Can you give anyhelp there?

Post by **Chris_C** » 05 Jan 2008 09:20 pm

From memory, and if it's anything like the turbo, there should only be a few wires to splice, +voltage, ground, rev counter and something else... Things like oil pressure should all be there from the 300 loom, but I'll let Adam confirm it all!
