i reckon it will. Or at the worst, the pressure plate wont bolt up to the flywheel. The friction plate and release bearing will fit im sure.

I reckon it would? Isnt the 172 basically a highly modified F7R engine?

Not really, well sort of. It all boils down to whether or not the pressure plate/flywheel bolt pattern is the same on the F4R as the F7R. Might be, might not be, I dunno.

The gearbox is, in this context, the same though.

i think ill see if i can get it and give it a shot. If it doesnt fit, ill just punt it on again.

I thought the R19, clio 16v and the clio 172 all used the same (or at least very similar) gearbox. But then I also thought that "self drive" vans actually drove themselves.

.......when I was a kid of course.

Oh, and I also dunno if the same gearbox means same clutch. Umm......maybe I should just be quiet

you'll find the clutch extremely stiff

the lever arm is alot longer on the clio than the 19's i'll go out and measure the clio's if you want.
