From the sounds of this thread though i REALLY think that you WOULD wish you got a quicker car with more sports bits and bobs i.e. suspension etc!! Dont settle for less than you can. There is NOTHING wrong with buying a car thats five years old...nothing at all if you do your homework and read...
I ordered mine between xmas and new year...i think the 27th. I dont think they are open until new year now as the cash hasnt come off my card. I ordered the system with the slash cut tail pipes as they really look way better rather than that "wheel barrow" effect. I got the supersports version...
K-tec must be shut for two weeks over xmas! Rang them today and no answer and the cash hasnt been taken off my card yet even though i recieved order confirmation vis email!
I didnt go for the Ultra one but went for the original they did with the slash cut tail pipes...i think it looks better. Ordered it a few moments ago so now i just wait!! I went for the the supersport without the middle silencer! http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1264&appid=2
CANT...
I also get the light flashing on and off sometimes...havent seen it in ages though. if i let the car idle it tends to go off on its own.
I have a weird plasticy smell coming from under mine at the moment and its been there for a good couple of months...dunno what it is. its coming from...
My 182 has 205's....is that what they are supposed to have? Its just I see that some people put 195's on. Any pro's and con's that people have to share?
I agree...ive changed out the air filter fora k & N and im ordering my k-tec exhaust in the next week but changing the exterior is not ever going to happen...how do you top perfection :)
Well maybe i should look at janspeed and go with freds advice because i want the standard one off before february if there is a waiting list for yozza! The Milltek doesnt seem to be much lighter than the standard one which sucks. Is the Janspeed one alot lighter?
Fine! You know what? Im gonna get a yozza! Youre so passionate about this and seem pretty certain ill love it yeah? My local garage will have no worries fitting it then?
My folks live in Perth Australia so i havent been able to take my dad out in the 182. I could give it welly with my dad in but i drive like a chauffeur with my mum in the car. She likes a bit of speed but not going "look mum...look how i can take this b road corner at 80!!"
Im a smoker and i smoke in my car. I like to smoke and drive...its kind of one of lifes little pleasure. Music on, ciggie in hand but in my opinion smoking in a car is an art form. My missus is RUBBISH at it so she doesnt do it because i give her so much abuse. i never drop ash in it and the arm...
No offence to anyone on here but think of how many honda owners you know...are the majority of them w*****s?? I BET they are! They think their s**t dont stink!
Hey, h3ppy! Fancy meeting up. I dont really have any mates who are as car daft as i am. When i spend 4-5 hours on a sunday detailing my car they think im nuts! I want to get in with some car nuts but all the people down the beach dont seem that friendly and i cant be arsed driving the same road...
I agree with this sooo hard! I had a SSS before my clio and although it was ace to throw round...arguably as good to corner as the 182 you had to wring its tinny little jap neck for some real power that the clio oozes at lower revs!
Awesome to hear!
Yeah it was a mammoth trip. 800 miles in 24 hours basically. Was a nice few hours i hung around in chester..beautiful city.
I asked the Birchdown lads what they thought was the best exhaust for clio's and they said the RS192.
So, headed down on Thursday night after work. Left aberdeen and stayed in a travelodge in Wrexham and dropped the car off at half nine. Was meant to be nine but course i got a little lost haha!
Anyway...awesome lads and had the car done at half two.
It was a five year service and cam belt and...
hahahah thats brilliant! what a LOL worthy thread! My dad loves cars but is into jags and stuff! He said "so its like your billabong clio you had? the 1.2?" Me - Yes Dad, like that but the sport version
Him - "ok so its a 2 litre engine in thats small a car?" Me - Yeah and its got 182 of Brake...
