For sale: 1994 Williams Clio Renault
Specifications
The GTS1 was fitted with the RB30E engine, which was essentially the same engine block as applied to the standard Silhouette model. Naturally, a number of modifications were made to the GTS1 engines and ancillaries to ensure a substantial power increase occurred. See the mechanical features section of this guide for specific details.
Engine number format:
The RB30E engine will have a number in the format: 1#####A
With the RB30 engines allocated to vehicles at Nissan between April 1988 and December 1988, the engine numbers applied to the GTS1 will generally be between 140000A and 170000A.10
Engine number location:
The engine number on the RB30E is provided in two locations:
1. Stamped into a small flat area on the inlet side (driver's side) of the engine block. This small flat area is located toward the front of the block, slightly lower and forward of the oil filter. Below the engine number, "RB30" will be cast into the engine block.
2. The engine number is also embossed on the vehicle's Nissan data plate on the engine bay bulkhead.

Great little Clio Williams edition advertised on 2dehands.be, asking EUR 20,000! Prices have certainly gone up since I looked at these about 5 years ago. This thing looks immaculate, and the seller notes that it's a Phase II car, and has had significant engine work recently done including all new fluids, new clutch, distributor, disc brakes, tie rods etc etc.. Ready to rock and roll on a tight circuit.
Surprisingly, this is the first of the Williams cars I've put on the register! See the original 2dehands listing here.
