I used to have a 81 Brava 2dr 5 speed dual cam car . It was awesome I drove it hard for 6 years. A true driver’s car. Sat and rode nice. Point the front wheels where you want to go and floor it, she’d make any turn. Sweet transmission very tight and precise. The rear diff input shaft is weak, I broke 4 of them. The station wagon rear end has different shock mounts (some minor welding req.) but a lower gear. 5th felt like 4th on the highway but it gave it a whole lot more off the line(.I broke that one also). Kinda weak front brakes. I’d wear out a set of pads in 6 to 8 thousand miles, and after some night driving you could see the rotors glowing.

Hi Hajem,

I’m not sure about resources in Jordan, but in the US, International Auto Parts, Vick Auto, or Midwest Bayless are popular suppliers. I know there are also great sources in Germany and Italy – I can’t remember the names, but a quick web search should help you find them.

Comment on Back in Black – Pair of Renault 17 Gordinis by Nick Goldberg

Thanks for the welcome. My two friends and I have had around 200 renaults in our day…..Dauphine, R5,8,10, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, Alliance GTA, R8 Gordini, Matra Djet, as well as a dozen or more citroens. Those days are gone except the Matra, Lotus europa, an R10, and a couple GTA’s. The matra has the engine and tranny from a eurospec R17 Gordini with the 807-13 engine and the 365 tranny. Anyway, any help with R17 cams would be most welcome.
Thanks, Nick

Hi Nick,

We are trying to preserve Renault 17s. I am glad you are enjoying your Renault R17-engined Lotus! Best of luck.

Wow!! Just found this website!! R17 freaks…..didn’t even know they existed anymore!! I am desperate for camshafts as I race a Lotus europa with R17 engine with 1796cc, dry sump, bigger valves, fuel injection (mounts to Weber manifolds) with programmable ecu, no distributor…..200hp!!! Really need R17 (or R16ts) camshafts. Please call Nick at 802-324-0908 or email nickg@accessvt.com Thanks
