Most recent unnecessary purchase came aswell, a 5mm phenolic gasket for the bottom of the inlet, this will go on with the sm inlet, these gaskets are used by the Glassworks etc as they're brilliant at lowering gas Temps, the advert for it showed it reducing the inlet Temps by 46 degrees ish...
[emoji23] cheers! Absolutely love them, wasn't sure whether to get then silver, black or gold but I'm glad I went gold with black stickers, be gettin the wheels off very soon to ceramic coat the life out of them

Alternator collected from forth auto electrics, 47 quid to sort it, apparently needed new regulator, much cheap! Car will be running and have baller brakes on soon!

At some point my inlet will be on and won't have the standard intake plenum blocking the top of the bay, I seen this photo a while back and it got me wondering about cop setups on a 182.
Cant find very much info about them clio wise but they're very popular on mx5's and Evos etc
Does anyone have...

Haven't had a good blast yet cause of traffic on the way home... Private road traffic..... But it seems to be more planted, will get a good shot tomorrow or somethin, it drives like new but I'm gunna say most of that is getting the alignment done and my wheel bearing was totaly shat [emoji23]...
Pms top mounts and strut brace fitted, alignment done, wheel bearing done and a few wee bits, drives a dream, next stop - fancy brakes
Edit : apologies for the vile engine bay, I'll sort that soon
