Hmm i wanted to go to the food festival, but unfortunately it was the beer festival the night before oops :S
Is also a nice 182 i used to see just off Ast*o* Drive
Shall agree with that, in the williams you get everyone coming up saying is that a williams?
It bloody says on the side of the car it is !
Hmm in the Dimma i get called a chav :D which i can agree with its 80's kit and yellow paint :D but i still love its looks :D
And in the 182 no one ever...
Hi all,
Ok im after the best place to buy new exhaust hangers for the 182 (the 2 back box ones), currently the ones i have on make it sit at a funny angle.
so could be a cause of the premature failure on the seals, maybe with the canister above the SC you are causing some additonal presure and causing the blow.
From reading stuff on hondas and beemers, they are running these c30 chargers for 50 to 70k miles with no issue...
so does seam strange...
Looks like rotrex will be changing the seals on new production chargers at some point
http://www.rotrex.com/Home/Technology/Important_Update.aspx no effecting the c30 atm but maybe soon
the main part being
'Nevertheless it is always best to position the supercharger above the canister and...
Get the fan mounted on the Aux belt, cheapo supercharger kit ;D
make sure its the right way though... don't want to be sucking air out of the engine by mistake !
Anyone know if the Williams steering wheel will fit a 182, i have one and want to send off my current wheel for a retrim...
Just wondering if i could use it as a temp wheel.
Also is it ok to drive with the airbag disconnected and then plug it back in later.

The setup of the TT. Looking at it, you may get problems on the back of the subframe so probably need to cut it and make a tunnel for the propshaft
An intresting Read, what sort of price are you looking at for a drive in drive out job ?
Possible to use the quatro box and 4wd the clio off this too ? :D
Im running Pirelli P Zero nero's 205 45 16 on the 182 and the grip i the dry with this hot weather is great, can stomp on the pedal and they just grip
Haven't done any full on hard cornering with them yet.
But get them in the wet and they just spin up if you look at them wrong :S
Coming off a...
Im actually in Derby itsself. just off the 52, my 182 is running the single back box version but its alittle loud for my liking (decatted atm might put cat back on). Im running a scorp on the williams which sounds lovely and on my dimma there is a mongoose which is well loud lol thats about all...
Ok so was looking at Scorp exhausts, and there appear to be 2 variations on the standard
And the custom rs192
So my question is is it better to have the twin silencers or the single ?
Would performance be effected by restrictions in only having 1 silencer.
I will assume the twin silencer...
Get it mopped and just clean and polish with any old stuff, it will be dirty by the time you drive it there anyways :P unless your having it transported down...
Intresting ok assuming the ECU is standard (remapping shouldn't be an issue) and its still working on fly by wire (which it is) then the cruise should work.
Ok as for Gallons / liters used, does the ecu work that out via assumption or does it actually measure it somewhere ?
As the problem i am...
How does the Cruise control pick up speed and work out what speed your doing etc.
Also how is Mpg worked out on the Clio 182, as my trip computer tells me im doing 60 mpg and when i work it out manually its actually about 39 (engine has been remapped on the standard ecu)
The speedo works and the...
Well everyone has to start somewhere :D And if you have the money why not in an atom :D
Only done 2 track days myself and im slow as hell lol, the idea is to have fun and not race other people (or so they say) :D long as you get out the way when your clearly out paced.
Quick question, with the 182 if you remove the Climate control pump in the engine bay do the heaters still function normally ?
you only lose the aircon part of the system yes?.
I assume the heater matrix is just standard behind the dash with a seperate blower control.
Had several springs break on my clios over the years, i even had one go when cornering hard once, was a loud ping and pulled over to look.
So its very common for these springs to break, and if it had already gone the coil might of been already broken and in the strut which could of gone unoticed.
