Professional struggler, not much on cars but does a lot of fu£ing about, if i had a bit of land and a large shed I'd be doing the same sort of bodgery fun

Best check the carbon canister is fitted and working fitst, my 172 is lumpy ish when warm too, no codes and timing is fine, its always been like this since I've had it. Think the 182 has better map on the ecu from new which stopped the lumpy ish running

Standard shocks and springs would be faster on most roads I'd imagine, them things will have you bouncing all over the road

Any mk2 one would work, just a little narrow so would need an extension pop riveted on, it would be the easiest option to work with

Im EE fibre 200 i think it is, they set it all up but you need to call for a good deal, wont get a good one online 👍

Sliders pins are/or the pad carrier is worn, grease wont help. Try a new slider pin kit first, likely originals still fitted

Great choice, they are a big upgrade from the clio, im sure you'll enjoy it 😁

Get it on axle stands and take the subframe off is what i done, its not hard just awkward as is everything when working on the floor, yiur young so will be much easier 😂🫣
