Picking the car up tomorrow now it's got a refurbed box in. The box that was removed from this was unusable, the bell housing had a hole in it, I just noticed yesterday there's a big oil patch where it's obviously dropped the oil from the box and you can tell it's more towards the middle of...

Are you talking 172 or 182 cup wheels?

I assume the MOT station want to fit two new springs?

Matt or gloss black will look good. Anthracite is a bit boring imo.

I've been doing around 400 miles a week in my cup for the last 3 months and the gearbox packed in the other week. It also developed an oil leak which is now sorted. I must say I wouldn't want to be doing 1k miles a week in the cup tbh.

They are a part that's exposed to wear and tear, they all need replacing at some point.

eBay is your friend.

Gloss black so you can't see how s**t they look.

umm mine is 991kgs actually, god, wish people would get there facts straight. :rasp:

Only if you lick the terminals. :rasp:

Does sound like an earth issue.

Very little. The 182 has a different breather setup and a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold. Everything else is the same afaik.

You could always get a 172. You can get a good one for a fair bit less. Personally I'd be looking for one with no more than 80k but that's just me.

I would say around £3,500+ You can get them cheaper but they usually have issues. Lightweight tyres? Boy you serious! Nice civic btw.

^ This man speaks sense.

If you bought it off a trader you should have a limited warranty with it?

A remap would improve the midrange torque.

Hmm well it's quite normal to squeak after a head kicking but it shouldn't really be doing it when you're just plodding about.

Is that offer available for all local members? :D All 182's bar the cup (which you don't want) have xenons, twin exhaust, cruise and FBW throttle. The differences are whether they have the cup packs which consist of the cup suspension and anthracite wheels and the cup spoiler and splitter.

Is it like this ALL the time or just after a head kicking?

I wasn't actually asking, I've seen this question asked about 3 times this week so I guessed someone else would come along and ask after what you're previous post said.

Please remove that Clio mudflap before you do anything. You should look at lowering springs/coilovers before anything else imo.

Three guesses as to what the next question will be.

To get it to sit at the highest point inside the hanger you can use the socket method. It involves removing the hanger, pushing a socket in either side of the rubber, cable tieing the sockets in place and then re-fitting.

Unfortunately I'm too far away but you are correct in saying that the airbag module on a rstuner will enable you to turn off the lights. It will need configuring again if you ever put the standard belts/airbags back in though.

Any decat will fit afaik. :S

You can swap them around Ade and yeah, the post cat lambda has no effect on the running of the engine.

Cup or a phase 1 172 gearbox with speedo drive is what you need.

That doesn't sound like dephaser to me, sounds like something is loose.

Nice pics.
