    Clio 182 Seat options - Recaro

    I run Recaro Speeds in my 182 Trophy, which were also fitted from the factory in a number of cars over the years. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Recaro Sportsters on track?

    I run Recaro Speeds in my 182 Trophy. The support is MUCH better than the original Trendlines but the seat backs still fold forward for decent rear access. Best bit was being able to use the original subframes (just a few holes needed drilling). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    MS Engineering matched inlets

    I recently had a ported/flowed head and matched inlets done by Max @MS Custom. The service was spot on and he kept me updated throughout the work and provided a great compilation of photos too. It was all completed on a parts exchange basis, which worked well. The workmanship was first class...

    Induction / air box set up

    Mine was recently re-mapped by Paul @RS Tuning following a whole range of upgrades. It had the Fatty kit on there during the tuning and I've subsequently swapped to the BMC when it popped up on the forum classifieds. I prefer the sound and, so far, I've not been aware of a change in performance...

    Induction / air box set up

    Simplest way to get a bit more 'growl' is to drill some holes in the lower half of the OE airbox on the right side as you look at the engine. Add an ITG/K&N/Pipercross panel filter for a few 'claimed' BHP (not convinced but they do sound good!). The Fatty setup, and variants thereof, is...

    Sparco R100 recliners

    Will definitely take a look! Another forum member has confirmed that the Trophy seat mount and sliders will accept any of the Recaro supplied base mount seats without modification. I'm going to have a look at the Speed seat next, as a friend has them and they're supremely...

    Sparco R100 recliners

    Thanks for the feedback, that's really helpful. Mine's a Trophy with the standard Trendlines but I don't like the driving position much and find it difficult to rest my head back on the seat back. Will keep looking at options... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sparco R100 recliners

    Currently £660 for a pair from sportseats4u (GSM) including sliders and direct fitment base mounts. They've just reduced the prices to do a price-match with a competitor [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sparco R100 recliners

    Just wondering whether anyone has any experience with the Sparco R100 reclining bucket seat, either in a Mk2 Clio or something else? They look to offer a good compromise between support, comfort, price and practicality. Sparco also do direct fitment frames/sliders for the Mk2 Clio. Comparisons...

    A/c delete

    Two options I think: 1. 172 Cup alternator and belt setup (not sure if any other bracket/pulleys are needed) 2. PMS A/C delete kit: http://www.pure-motorsport.co.uk/clio-2-rs-aircon-delete-kit-std-pulleys.html Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cam timing and the group buy on timing tools

    As the OP knows, I've recently fitted a ported/flowed head, Catcams 421s, matched inlets and had a custom map from Paul @RSTuning. The engine made a very strong 193bhp with peak torque of 165lbft and a good spread of torque of 150+lbft between 4-6.5k rpm. It drives superbly but I suspect the...

    Matched inlets- where

    MS Custom Engineering in Frome just did mine. Seem to have a good reputation and lots of people use their service. You can find them on FB. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bedding/running in cams and flowed head

    Absolutely! Which is why all of the parts are still packaged up and sealed in the box. They were cleaned before being delivered. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bedding/running in cams and flowed head

    Max @MS Custom Engineering in Frome, Somerset. He's the chap that does the matched inlets etc. Parts arrived back with me yesterday and being installed next weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
