[RSC Arno Samimi] Restoration Engine, Gearbox & Engine bay

Message par RSC Arno Samimi » 20 nov. 2019, 11:02

Restoration Engine, Gearbox & Engine bay:

Engine, gearbox and front axle were expanded together.

Image

All attachments removed.

Image

Here is just a fraction of the new parts.
All in all, the complete restoration of the entire car required more than 1000 part numbers.

Image

Also from other manufacturers parts were needed.
For example, rubber grommets for the connectors on the cable harness
or here clamp brackets for the water hoses in all sizes from Volkswagen.

Image

All parts to be galvanized were blasted first. Then black passivated.
The front axle and the stabilizer were powdered black.

Image

The front axle was reassembled.
Of course with new bearings, wishbones, bolts and nuts.

Image

A known problem of the F7R engine has also just been eliminated.
The serration for the V-ribbed belt tensioner on the additional assembly carrier wears off over time.
This carrier is no longer available.

Image

The cast aluminum spline was milled off and teeth made in steel.
Then bolted to the carrier. The problem is now solved permanently.

Image

The parts to be painted were also blasted first.
Furthermore, various aluminum parts on the engine and the intake bridge were blasted.

Image

The steel parts were painted. The wheel bearings were replaced a few kilometers before.
Therefore, they could continue to be used.

Image

The engine block was cleaned, derusted and painted black with heat resistant paint.
The innards of the engine have been revised a few kilometers before. That’s why the engine was not opened.

Image

The complete engine harness was cleaned, retied and fitted with new rubber sleeves for the connectors.

Image

The harness was tied with fabric adhesive tape.

Image

The new rubber sleeves. Ordered from Volkswagen.

Image

The attachments of the engine were mounted.

Image

The gearbox has been completely revised.

Image

All parts were cleaned, the housing blasted, and replaced all wearing parts.

Image

And reassembled.

Image

Almost finished.

Image

The fitted gearbox. It was also installed the Group N short shifter.

Image

The gearbox was screwed to the engine.

Image

The engine harness was led around the gearbox and other parts reassembled.

Image

The starter and various holders were reinstalled.

Image

The Engine and the gearbox were put back on the front axle.

Image

The steering has been reinstalled.

Image

Other holders and water hoses found their place again.

Image

The devil group A complete exhaust system.

Image

Retro pure!

Image

The manifold and the downpipe were mounted.

Image

The RSC Competition Pro PC57D-WS (Williams Special – blue gold) has been screwed on again.

Image

The oil pipes from the steering were mounted.

Image

Now the engine bay came to it.

Image

All parts were removed for painting the engine bay.

Image

The body was sanded…

Image

… and covered.

Image

The engine bay was painted.

Image

The rear box was also in a second step…

Image

…painted.

Image

Before the engine, gearbox and front axle were mounted, the wheel arches were also painted.

Image

They were cleaned and painted.

Image

Ready for the wedding.

Image

And already installed.

Image

No comparison to before.

Image

The crossbeam had also to be painted from the outside.

Image

And also the substructure of the bodywork from the outside.

Image

The right side as well.

Image

Missing still the radiator and the ECU. Otherwise the complete restoration is finished up to the “windscreen”.

Image

It was still a Group N EPROM installed. Now the F7R turns up to 7400rpm and hangs a little better on the gas. The controller housing was also blasted and a new data adhesive was made. Of course with RSC logo.

[RSC Arno Samimi] Restoration Underbody

Message par RSC Arno Samimi » 20 nov. 2019, 11:10

The whole body of this Clio Williams is very well preserved.
No serious rust spots or rust holes were found.
First, all attachments were removed from the underbody.

Image

Only harmless, brown rust spots were found, such as here…

Image

… and rusted shielding plates of the exhaust system or rusted screws.

Image

The rear axle was removed.

Image

Image

The fuel tank as well.

Image

At the lift points on both threshold, there was most work.
Either the points were deformed by improper lifting of the car, or even injured so far, that the rust could eat the plate.
Nevertheless, the repair was no big deal at these places.

Image

Image

Image

After repairing all rusty spots, the bare areas were treated with Brunox.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Thereafter, these places were primed.

Image

Image

Image

Image

All sheet edges / transitions were also cemented after priming.

Image

Image

Image

Next, colored, overcoatable underbody protection was used to simplify the subsequent painting in the body color.


Image

Image

Image

Now the entire underbody could be painted in body color.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

All steel parts of the underbody were blasted, black powdered or black passivated.

Image

The rear axle was assembled again.
Of course, all wearing parts and screws were replaced.

Image

Image

The rear axle was mounted again.

Image

New fittings are a matter of course.

Image

Image

Also in the interior again everything in original condition and sealed with foil.

Image

The fuel tank was cleaned, and the hoses and clamps replaced.

Image

The fuel tank was reinstalled.

Image

Image

The new handbrake cables were still mounted.
Also the brake lines, some of which had to be repaired. In addition, there were steel brake lines in blue.

Image

The rusted shields of the exhaust system were blasted, blue galvanized, and reassembled.

Image

Image

Image

Image

The front shield in the center tunnel was actually still available from Renault.

Image

Finally, the devil Group A complete exhaust system was mounted.
