Yer its probably closer to £700 at times haha, but i get lots of Shell points so must be worth it right? As i mentioned in the update i am probably going to be changing jobs and it will be closer to home or i can use the train etc so will give the car a bit of a break. Should have some new...

Thank you sir. Lol how do you do so little mileage? Use another car? Yer i have been very impressed tbh, obviously its not the most refined car to travel in. Saying that i do alot of miles everyday and sometimes the car will get abused and i have had no issues with it. I would of expected it...

I can see this thread has sparked quite the debate haha. I won't be going for the 4 pots I will stick with the standard calipers for now. I don't need some mad track pads as the car won't see the track that often, I can happily have a set of race pads on the side if i need them. This is mostly...

Seems more likely to be an injector especially as you had a fault for misfire.

Hmm OK then, think i will stick to the standard calipers with the HC discs and DS2500 pads.

Sounds similar to issues i had, turned out to be TDC sensor. If you give the wires to the sensor a little wiggle and the car cuts out then thats the issue.

As far as im aware the calipers are standard and the pads are some cheap brand. I would be using fast road and little bit of track. I have already spoken to George it's just a case of doing a bit more research on it. If the Brembos make a big difference and fit behind a standard wheel i would...

Seriously? I find them very impressive on the road, I can't say for track and if the car goes on track it would be using proper track tyres.

I have just fitted new PS3's all round so the tyres shouldn't be an issue.

10,000 mile update! So i have had the car for almost three months now and done over 10k, in that time i like to think i have saved it somewhat. When i first picked up the car is was clear the previous owner did care for it, however the lack of funds saw some cheap parts and quick fixes. I'm not...

Does anyone know where i can get the Renault diamonds for 182 centre caps? If they are no longer available does anyone know if diamonds from another model will fit?

I know this has probably been covered, but i need some new brakes after managing to set my standard ones on fire the other night and have a few questions after considering my options. 197 Brembos, are they worth it? Braking performance dramatically improved? Will they fit behind a standard (non...

If you don't hear back from snappy you can also go to http://royalsteeringwheels.com/ Jack is very good and reasonably priced (best to call him). I had mine done a couple months ago.

Hmm well if its brand new probably isnt the problem unless its fitted wrong or something silly. Are you sure its the box making the noise? Far from local, but i know the area well as i spent alot of time there over 5 and a bit years ha, some good country roads to chuck it around lol.

It totally depends on what system you have, I have just fitted a PMS system to mine it has the standard cat with the bigger end piece for the CAT and it has the centre silencer too. Very quiet, only a little bit louder than standard. I do alot of miles a day in my car so it had to be quiet and...

£72 on black circles for 195's, i got my set from them in 205s for £390ish fitted.

Clutch release bearing? Just realised you are in Ramsgate whereabouts? My ex misses lives there and i used to be there all the time ha.

Nice work, that Sabelt wheel should come up nice with a clean and a brush. I take it its alcantara?

Great thread and great car, i know Ktec have issues but they have built a great car there.

It does look really good, I will bring mine to yours and you can tidy it up for me ;) What's next?

Just went through this from a start, it has come a long way! Very tidy car mate you should be proud.

Looks fantastic, how you getting on with the PMS shifter? I'm thinking about ordering one myself.

I did have it removed only two screws can only see that it gives the ECU a bit of support.

Agree with Engine Dynamics i have had work done by them and it's going back for cams and mapping at the end of the month.

Hmm i don't think the 182 does as i think it takes it from the ABS i may be wrong.

Sounds like your having a right old mare with the car ATM, didn't really think the ABS pump failed on these.

If its a speed sensor it could be the VSS in the gearbox or the wiring to it. Do you get any other symptoms or issues?

Yup, going to call them tomorrow and see if i can push a bit more on the refund and get another jubilee clip. I really like the sound now, it gets alot of attention at times haha. Yer i have been pushing them and no traction issues not even in the rain, very happy with them. Also stopped at...

Spotted a few Clios around the big MK meet tonight, anyone from here?

Good to meet you the other day, car looks really tidy it would be a shame to strip it all out. What are the plans moving forward?
