itb trophy on the wirral, sat next to a few others... it had to be @Chi :cool:

Also interested to see how you go. seller defo needs to get that shipping issue sorted.

Should have 2 alarms for both high and low warnings. Temp wise. I set my big full flash to something like 60. To remind me to really take it easy. Then the small led flash to approx 78. This means I know when the Rev limit is in or out of operation. Haven't set a high limit. I personally...

I found two trolley jacks facing each other balanced the gearbox quit nicely.

for amusment factor a mate of mine was at an auction house today.. Willy 1(i believe).. 1 owner , 6K on the clio, all bills..utterly immaculate.. bidding hit £14,400 but didn't trigger the reserve.

Just looking into studs an 5mm spacers.

Will be back mithering Keith.. sold my Scottish 182. :cool: Brembo converstion now safe. Infact i have just bought a second minty set from @gambit as they looked to pretty to not buy. lol

dont care about performance upgrades... but it gets ride of the utterly rubbish olive joint! This is into a piper which is easier as it uses the 6"shim so you dont have to actually mod the center, just the shim. the lad who did this for me could have sold me a sports cat. his exact words...

Not immediatley.. cash flow.. I dont want to sell the rest of the Toms's kit right this second but might have too.

is it just my eyes that thinks the shock also looks bent???.....probably just me eyes

Cars lovely, I would stick with cliche and go with yellow. I really can't picture purple caliper on your car. It's too clean. Plus you get a bit of tie in with the number plate. Under the bonnet you can go crazy as it doesn't show when the cars sat.

Good efforts mate, it defo looks like a project.

I found a handy blanking plug at the back of the pedals on my trophy. Guess this is porbaly the lack of throttle cable on the 182. This works a treat on mine with a gromet and some extra tape around the cables. The plug strips down easy enough. then used a piggy back fuse with a cable ran...

Beast Dan will done...however careful or @SharkyUK will be changing his build again ;)

Hi Keith, have you done the MC yet? If not How you finding the brembo on the 182 MC? Just wondering if I should do it at the same time as doing my conversation.

windmill!!! ;)

18/07/2015 82912 - Mot failed on parking brake. oh the irony of having just swapped the cables anyway Swapped the caliper out and 01/08/2015 Happy days 82980 - Nice new 12month Mot with no advisories. Next sunny evening and it will be time to fit the new rear sachs.

Hi all, Have noticed that both my 182 and Trophy appear to have an area of the rear disc they don't appear to touch. The outer side face are fine but the inner face lower 1/3( nearest the centre) never seems to clear of rust. I'd this common? Is there a part of the caliper I can service to...

AFAIK.. 182 cup hubs have different drive shafts over 182 non cup. And also different inner track rods. Not sure how that all compares to a 172 cup. It's all doable I am sure.. But then so are top end coilovers. With non of the agro.

another one sorted with same problem. they are somthing like 79p each.

Can you buy them new without an engine attached?

I hope your building a car sized wooden plinth for this to sit on with a plaque. scale 1:1. Epic.

what do the big boost r5gtt folks acheive? Just a a random guide figure.

Yeah renault wolverhampton sent me a set for £220ish. I did have them on order before they came back so price may have changed.

+1 what was your issue with your new ones?

Yep.. As everyone else has said. I had to buy a cheap electric impact gun to do mine. Took seconds after that.

There are a few options for adaptors either 280mm or 300mm .. best part of £170 plus. Then add brembo brake lines, fluids. you might find you need pins and pads etc. Not sure about wheel spacers with 172 cup turinis. Others can advise on those.

Nice mods as ever Marc.
