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. |
