Yeah thats mine.Have owned it since june last year and its been a great car and love when i take it out.
Came to the point where it either needed more power to make it more exciting when it comes out or sell it for something else.Had already spent quite a bit on it and love the car so now its...
Snap ! My racing blue 182 is in with Andy aswell just now getting a stage 3 with supertec valves.
Mine only went in a week past friday so will still have a while till mines ready.
Got a few other things im going to do to mine but will wait till i get it back.

Yeah it will turn them off for that time untill you unlock the car.you will have to do that proceedure everytime but its no biggie to do,only takes a second.
Put the key in,turn to last click before starting,turn it back to the start.do this one more time,pull key out,lock car and you should hear either a beep or two 'cant remember' and thats the sensors off.
Clio looks brilliant and alot spent on it in the right places to make it a cracking road car.Hopefully get mine similar to yours plus with me going for a stage 3 turbo aswell.
Hopefully be around the 330 bhp mark when its done.Was never intending to do all this when i got it but now the spending has got a bit out of control.The car drives great but they lack power as standard.
So the clio got dropped off with Andy at clioturbo last friday 25th sept after originally thinking of a stage 2 which turned into a stage 3 which turned into a stage 3 with supertech valves with inconel exhausts.
Getting various engine bits and pipes done in a anthracite finish with black boost...
I had a pms shifter in my road going clio 182 for a couple of months then swapped it back to standard.
It would be good in a track car but not for a daily driver.Enjoyed it at first but the rattle and rawness got too much for me.
There is a very slight bit more but is totally livable in a road car unlike the pms shifter which after a while ruined the car for me and couldnt get it removed fast enough.Is far too raw and clunky.
The car drives alot better with the front end stiffened up just a slight bit more.
The extra...
Bought and fitted a powerflex dogbone and vibra tecnics engine and gearbox mount.
All fitted easy enough apart from the bolts for the gearbox side were a bit fiddly.
What a difference and glad ive fitted them.
Ive had and been in numerous clio 182s with different exhausts and the scorpion rs192 is the quietest exhaust ive heard.Not too much louder than standard.
Not done anything else to the car recently.Just been enjoying driving it when its good weather at the weekends or the odd evening.Still drives brilliant and is a really good sporty road car the way it is but still have the urge to tinker away with it.Just not sure what...
Its onto 35k on the...
The battery light came on at the weekend past there and was charging up at 12.5v instead of about 14.5v so stripped the front end down on tuesday night and removed the alternator.Got a genuine one from renault today and bought a new exide 4 year warranty battery aswell so fitted them tonight and...
Thanks for the replys !
Swapped the battery today with another clio 182 and its still got the same prob.Is intermittant though with sometimes going upto 14.4 volts and the dash lights are out but when you put the headlights on the voltage drops to 12.4 volts and the battery light comes on...
A problem has started with my clio 182 today.
The battery and stop lights come on when the car is at idle but when you rev it or driving the car the lights go out.
The voltage at the battery is 12.4 volts at idle and when you blip the revs the volts go up to 14.5 volts but then go back to 12.4...
Has been really hard not wanting to buy some nice bits ive spotted for sale recently ie RS2 intake,Sach Dampers,Brembo callipers etc but the car drives great as it is and dont think i will do much else to it if anything.
Decided to get the bodywork sorted at the weekend past with a guy that has...
Have spent a bit of money on the car recently...

Hi,
Can anyone help to wither you can fit clio 197 brembo callipers with brackets to a clio 182 and still use the standard 16" clio 182 alloys without spacers or are spacers needed ?
And if so whats the minimum size of spacers you can get away with ?
Thanks
