    Racing blue 182

    Looks great on the black 2118s. Im in the same situation with the hpas on my kangoo, the pipework is about shot so need to sort it asap. Cant decide whether to fit epas or go for a hybrid hpas with electric pump a bit like the cup racers. Its awful with no pas from the tow or 3 its had lol

    £25 Mintex Race Pads (M1177)

    I see these were in the Clio cup gen2 parts manual. Any good for track use ?

    Performance Ignition leads

    Save your money mate they do nothing to increase performance. A new set of oem Renault leads will last miles longer. I binned a set of magnecor, fitted crap and causing random misfire. They have always been a let down no matter what car ive tried them on

    Took it out Sunday and give it a fair bit of abuse and seems ok. Guess we are ready for another trackday if weather stays mild !

    Alternatives to PS3

    Stick to the PS3's. Yes they are not as good as ps4 but the best road tyre available in the correct size of 16". Not really suited to track use but the XL sidewall are decent.

    Job done and running again. Only done a short run in it to the gym the other night but it seemed ok. Will take it for a decent flog out soon and see how it holds together ! Needs a clean badly front wheels are black with brake dust after Croft. In other news i give my omp helmet a makeover...

    Renfort diff plate

    Job done. Bolts are countersunk M5x0.8 and 20mm long. Not the worst job to do, hopefully permanent fix. Quite a bit of endfloat in the diff, spacer shim is fitted and same thickness as the snapped one. I checked a spare low mileage jb3 and it appears to have the same large endfloat so assuming...

    Rear shock bolt into hub? Where I get a new one.

    That should drill out a doddle with good drill bits. Cutting fluid and patience required, dont bother with the easi out shite, when they snap your in a whole world of pain.

    Plate fitted & bolts threadlocked. Fingers crossed this does the business ! Going to give the threadlock 24hrs then fill it up with gear oil.

    Drilled & tapped the diff in situ for the renfort plate today. Not too bad a job with the small sealey drill i borrowed, new drill bit went through it like a knife going through butter. Had rags stuffed in the box to keep the swarf from falling in and will flush oil through. Will fit plate...

    Abs and ESP lights

    Prob worth scanning it with clip and see what codes are stored. Will give you an idea where the fault is.

    182 crank seal oil leak

    Ive noticed a weep from most f4r crank seals clio or meg and at low mileage. Does the crank wear bad on these and can you get away with moving the crank seal slightly to accomodate for wear ? Ive not had the pleasure of doing a crank seal yet but looks like oem tool is needed to save damaging it...

    Abs and ESP lights

    Steering angle on squib might need resetting. Oem wheel or aftermarket? Check it has the notches on the wheel/boss that turn the squib.

    172 ecu

    You can lose the uch on ph1 setup no bother, however if you want the obd port may need it unless you can wire it up on its own.

    mk1 engine conversion

    I think you might need to get the immobiliser done on ph1 ecu but not 100%, somebody will be able to advise. Apart from that fairly easy to wire up, seen a few r5gtts fitted with ph1 setup.

    mk1 engine conversion

    Standalone ecu will be grand or ph1 172 ecu and wiring loom for simple wire up. On both setups you will need ph1 cable throttle setup.

    Boosted 225 Pearl Black

    Ive seen this back in the day mate good to see it out and about. Whats the plan for rewiring just tidy up?

    Potential turbo failure

    Ive had a garrett fail with a pop and f**k loads of smoke back in the day, exhaust impellor sheared off on full boost. I still cant believe most of the clio turbo kits run ching spec cheapo turbos on them. Bang a garrett on and enjoy reliable boosting (well reliable turbo anyway ?)

    Renfort diff plate

    Parts have arrived, just need to pop down the local fasteners for some 12.9 high tensile bolts tomorrow, get it stripped and hopefully wont find any nasties. Half expecting the box to be knackered with my luck lately.

    Is this the speedo sensor?

    Speedo sensor is on the back above diff sticking up, push fit.

    Renfort diff plate

    Any other tips regarding fitting ? Looks fairly straightforward. Will ram some tight fitting rags around the diff to stop swarf falling in.

    Gear stick extension, anyone tried one?

    Looks awful. Get the pms setup if you want a longer shifter.

    Decat Lambda V-band etc....

    Eml will be on if you disconnect post cat lambda engine will run fine. Leave it connected to keep light off and ziptie it out of the way.

    Rear springs not sitting in their cups

    Wrong dampers at a guess. My dci done the same on stock shocks - 172cup rear shocks were 25mm shorter when put side by side. Have a look and see what fitted.

    Suspension Refresh

    Whats up with the current bolts ? They are pretty heavy duty. If heavily rusted wire brush and good application of plus gas before removal.
