Hi Guys Just after a bit of advice. The time has finally come to change the water pump on my 182. The water pump was fine bust seemed to be leaking from the gasket. Had a bit of time this afternoon so started to strip it down and get the old gasket and pump out. When putting the...

I have exactly the same problem as this any idea of the cause yet

Hey Guys I shall pull the seats out this weekend and have a look at the possibility for the subframes cant see any issues thou. Im looking at the brembo conversion but would people still be interested if i used callipers from a different model of car still that are cheaper to get hold of too...

Hi guys I was going to say they would be more than £15 but I could guarantee them for 18 months minimum. They will be poly bushed so should last even longer than that. Was going in around £55 - £60 a pair initially as i have seen the £80 ones but have mixed reviews as ma be a bit to rigid...

Hi Guys Some good suggestions. With regards to the price I have a good relationship with some suppliers so I can haggle the price to a reasonable level obviously not dirt cheap. You get what you pay for and all. Parts that should be nice and easy are..... Top mount covers should have them...

Hi Guys I have recently started an automotive consultancy business. I have a job with a UK parts company designing parts for production. I am looking to go a bit more specialist with my work and while I still have the 182 I am going to mock up some parts. Is there anything that...

Spotted a very nice looking black 182 with full cage and bucket seats on my Nurburgring trip. If I remember right was in convoy with a type r civic and an M3 had a quick play on the motorway and a bit of the lanes towards Nurburg

I keep seeing the same on my daily pass through Lichfield seems to be loads around Minworth as well. Have a 182 FF

I thought I had a chance at the 182 2005 - 182ff - 106,500 as its used for a daily commute of 88 mile. Still going strong. original clutch too

Thanks for the comments guys. Sorry I meant a diffrence after the snow foam. Appreciated the two bucket method is only way. What I meant to put was that the wash did not seem to make a diffrence the snow foam seemed to get 99% of the dirt off.

Hi Guys With the sun deciding to make an appearance I decided it was time to give the 182 a bit of TLC. The car is used as a commuter with a 90 mile round trip each day so the road grime builds up really quick. The car has previously been machine polished to remove as many defects as I could...
