    Nankang NS-2R for Daily use

    Currently I've got T1R's on the car, and i'm not impressed with them, they were on the car when i bought it about 3-4 weeks ago. I'd like to spend around £75 per tyre ideally, so i've been eyeing the Nankang NS-2R up and looking through threads and reviews etc for a couple of days. Dry grip is...

    182 Cutting out and spluttering

    I posted this is the wrong section the other day and haven't got a reply yet. So will try again here. Basically, i've had the 182 for about 3 - 4 weeks now, but over the last couple of weeks at least it's not been running right. I've had spluttering like the car isn't getting enough fuel had...

    182 spluttering and cutting out

    Only had the car for about 3 weeks now. But seem to have a problem with it splutting and cutting out that seems to be getting worse. Initially, i noticed it spluttering slightly when pulling away or speeding up, then returning to normal, this only lasted a second or two, and only happened a...

    Minimum ET with 15" wheels

    I wouldn't be going low, the coilover would be for performance over looks. I've emailed demon tweeks to see if they can supply 2 ET25 and 2 ET35.

    Minimum ET with 15" wheels

    It's only on sportline springs with cup dampers at the minute, But once any of that needs replacing i'll probably end up getting BC coilovers from Diamond Motors fitted. I wouldn't want to limit options in the future to be honest. I know ET35 will fit on the rear as i had 16inch 1.2's on my last...

    My Skoda. Probably my favourite car for a long time!

    I know, i know.... but i'm still being drawn. I'd hopefully be keeping the clio too, but the Audi would be for business use mainly. So more comfortable and professional looking, and i've got a suitable family car already, so it would just be me 99% of the time. Yep, quattro as standard in...

    Minimum ET with 15" wheels

    I'm sure this has been answered before, but my searching skills seem poor today. Currently running the standards 16" wheels on my 182, and as i want to replace the crappy tyres that are on it, i'm thinking about switching to some 15" wheels at the same time. Cheaper tyres making up some of the...

    My Skoda. Probably my favourite car for a long time!

    A propper remap is always better than a tuning box. Also take it to a remapper with a good rep with these cars, as a lot just map them to throw more fuel in and it results in lots of black smoke on acceleration.

    My Skoda. Probably my favourite car for a long time!

    Don't some places remap these to around 190bhp? I've thought about getting one of these a few times. I've been wondering if selling my Jetta is a good idea having had the 182 for a couple of weeks now. It's so easy to drive and much more comfortable. With the Hybrid turbo, it's also a fair bit...

    ***Tyre Poll***

    Are the V12 evo 2 a farily new tyre? seems there is a lot of comparison to Pilot Super Sports on various forums. Obviously the concensus is that the PSS are the better tyre, but the V12's are a good option. I'm leaning towards the V12's now to be honest, the Goodyear F1's are the older version 2...

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    Full set of front pads, so 4 pads.

    ***Tyre Poll***

    Are V12's a good all round then? I'd considered them before buying RS2 on my last 182, not sure why i went for the RS2 over the V12's in the end.

    ***Tyre Poll***

    Whats the go to tyre these days for a 182 on 16" wheels? The 182 i've just bought has T1R's on it and i'm not impressed. I've had Rainsport 2's and 3's in the past, which are both two soft in the sidewall and made the car feel like it was rolling over the sidewalls when corning hard. Also had...

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    I've ordered Genuine Renault rear disc and pads with new nuts and washers, with Brembo plain disc and pads for the fronts. I'll see how i get on with this setup and then revisit if need be, i figured the brembo pads are only £30. So might as well try these out before throwing £130+ on pads...

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    If standard is the best setup then great, it'll save me some cash. Just while i'm changing everything, i'd rather pay a little more now and get something better if I can without going all out and replacing the calipers and mounts, etc.

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    This is my issue with choosing pads, it seems quite split on whether they're good or crap. I've run standard Brembo Disc and Pads on my old 182, which were decent. Just hoping to improve on it a little if possible. Sounds promising, have you tried anything else to compare with? These the...

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    I was leaning more towards this setup initially, as it does seem one of the more popular. I thought the RC6 were more track based than the RC5+ to be honest, so i've not really considered them. Have you any experience with the DS2500 too, to compare?

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    I thought the RC5+ was suppose to improve the squealing issue the original RC5's had, are the revised pads still bad? They better than the DS2500 for squealing or general performance? To be honest my main concern is cold performance when moving away from OEM pads, i'd like something that will...

    Best fast Road Brake setup

    Bought a 182 this weekend and I need to replace the front and rear disc and pads. I know the standard setup is already pretty good when fresh, but I was hoping to improve the stopping power a little. Car will be used for driving to work in mainly, but there are some fun roads to throw it...

    Uniroyal Rainsport 3

    I had these on a set of F1's in 195/50/15, compared to the RS2's (205/45/16) they were better in the wet and dry, only slightly, but enough to notice the difference when i put my old wheels back on with the RS2's. However the RS2's have done over 10k miles and still have at least 3mm thread...

    Coilover bolt spacing

    One hole is elongated vertically, so it'll accommodate both cup and non cup bolt spacing. The other is elongated horizontally for adjusting camber.

    ET35 with 20mm spacers been done?

    Actually thinking about it I've not allowed for the extra tyre width, do its going to be 13mm extra, might be better off ditching the spacers or going down to 5 or 10 mm which will get me similar to what I'm running now. Might put the standard 182 wheels on tonight with the 20mm spacers and...

    ET35 with 20mm spacers been done?

    I'm currently running 15" F1's with 20mm spacers, Eibach Prolines and camber bolts set to max (believed to be about 1 degrees but actual is unknown). The 16" TD Pro Race 1.2's i've bought are ET35, am i likely to have issues with rubbing? I'm going to be running 205/45 tyres. It's only 8mm...

    Open ended Locking wheel nuts.... where from?

    Looking to get some locking wheel nuts for use with the kTec Stud conversion. They need to be open ended as the studs are pretty long, with a suitable key to accommodate the stud length (68mm). Can only find them on eBay, and i'm just a bit apprehensive about buying such items from non known...
