c1j

hi guys ive recently obtained a C1J engine block with the hopes to build it from scratch to eventually put in my R5 this is my first time doing it so im wondering if theres any guides/workbooks on how to assemble the engine etc. i do plan getting a bit more power out of it and not keep it stock...

Hey peeps, I just got myself a 1990 R5 GTS 1.4 with the C2J engine. The car didnt pass emissions as I tried to verify it the other day. It had a much richer mix then what was advertised with the car. I think the problem lies in the double barrel Carbureator. Now in order to fix it I could...

Just thought I'd post this up here. As you may know I'm a big fan of dipping the blocks in caustic soda, to clean them up. However, although it gets rid of grease, it doesn't get rid of rust. So I thought I'd try dipping in acid. A place local to me charges £90 to caustic clean and acid dip a...

After efi C1J inlet as I recall someone selling them on here?. Thanks

There is a guy who has helped me source a steering wheel from Portugal who has asked me if I can help him find an ID plate from a C1J engine. His was removed and lost during a refurb. This will be mega rare on it's own I assume, but he would be interested in a damaged block as well if it had the...

Currently converting my Cup car to run Davis Craig EWP as part of my ongoing engine development with the CIJ. Would anyone have dimensions of the gasket so i can machine a billet alloy adapter flange? I have only gone an brought the blanking plate gasket overseas with me instead of the pump...

Hi, I am using 15w50 fully synthetic oil, in an old renault manual it says that the turbo engine oil capacity is 2.6 liter + 0.25 liter in the oil filter, Hayens manual says that it should take 3.7 liter + 0.5 liter in the oil filter, which one is correct? Thank you,

Has anybody got a bare C1j block for sale. needing one to allow a mock up and fabrication for a new set up over winter.

As per the title, I’m looking for a gearbox that will bolt to the C1J and have a std LSD? I’ve heard the RS225/230 box is reasonably strong and can source them in Australia reasonably easily. Has anyone tried or have they just gone for the VAG boxes?

are there similarites in the c1j, c2j and c3j engine block? can you build a c2j engine block to a "c1j turbo" ?

As title suggests, ideally want a complete engine that I can rebuild but will consider fully running engine. Regards Ben

I’ll have an injection manifold available soon If any one’s interested send me a PM

During the rebuild on my Renault 11 Turbo. I was searching for a new solid V-Belt for the Alternator/Water Pump as the OE Renault Solid V-Belts are no longer available. I figured that it wouldn't be too hard to source a belt from a from a regular Belt Supplier as surely they can't be exclusive...
