    Cookie's 2009 Honda Civic Type R GT

    Nice car Cookie They are great machines even when the mileage gets high. I had an 08 GT with 89k miles on it, sold it trade earlier in the year (March) and got £5k for it. Dealer sold it for £6k within the week. It had full Honda history and hadn't had any major problems or repairs as I knew...

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    I really didn't want mine to be lowered, but I didn't want to just replace one when I could do all four for not much more. Turns out the opposite side front had a crack in it too. They drop the car 15-20mm on a Cup. Probably looks better for it. Handles better.

    Help Identify Loud Donk?

    Bear in mind if you're driving with a broken spring and you know about it, it would be frowned upon in a very negative way if you had an accident directly relating to sudden loss of control of the vehicle or part of the spring ejecting from the vehicle and causing an accident otherwise. I was...

    Rear Exhaust Touching & Banging against newly installed lowering spring - With Pic

    Rear Exhaust Touching & Banging against newly installed lowering spring - With Pic

    On my Cooksports the right rear is fitted and the Cooksport writing on them is the correct way round. (as below) On the left hand side, the spring is fitted the opposite hand, so the Cooksport writing is upside down. (unless its printed wrong, but the writing is definitely upside down) Does...

    Chris' Clio 182 RB Project

    Good stuff Chris How much did you get the standard exhaust for? Or is it a used one? Renault new prices are daft

    Splitter fitter - 182

    Thanks for the pointers fellas. I will leave the screws in that are already there, as reading an old pdf in the guides section that fuBar did a while back (for removing the front bumper) it turns out these screws hold the bumper on underneath. Also on the KTEC carbon fibre splitters, there is a...

    So what are these screws already in holding on :confused: ? Do I replace the screws in the same place?

    Splitter fitter - 182

    Just picked up a Fabia splitter for the grand old sum of £13.97 :smile: They were in stock at the Skoda garage I pass every now and again, would've been rude not to at that price. Anyway I have searched the forum and have a question I don't know/ can't find the answer to. I've looked under my...

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    So I phoned KTEC just to see when their silenced Janspeed 2.25" system would be in stock and they said this week! From a few very positive comments I've read here and there regarding the overall quality of the KTR Janspeed system I have gone and ordered that. Mind made up, paid for, done. I am...

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    I've spoken to Martin at Scorpion, (and if I did have any problems with the Clio being a daily driver and an absolute necessity, I could always get it swapped/repaired/replaced next day there) I have changed my mind again and I think I will go for the SRN019 system. £13 to deliver it to my...

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    I think I am going to go for the KTEC Sports silenced system 2.25" cat back Be nice to hear a few more opinions on this

    Didn't know what sort of quality/ sound the Millteks were like. Just don't want a boomy box

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    Cheers Dave, I'm kind of tempted by just being able to pop in to Scorpion and pick one up. They said they would fit it for me if I could wait a week or so, so I might just do that. BTW, KTEC offered me their new Centreline exhaust, similar to the Orbisoud style I think. Bit more £££ but looked...

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    RS192 was also one I was thinking about but someone mentioned blowing and poor/cracked welds, but it is civilised.

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    I'm interested in fitment. Do they fit straight on, no messing about - all my mounting brackets have JUST been replaced. Don't want any blowing or rattling or poor fits.

    KTR Sports or Scorpion SRN019 for a 182 Cup (not loud thanks)

    The welded bracket on my 182 original back box has broken off, and the exhaust is pretty much on its last legs. Theres really not much point trying to weld to rust :-( MOT is looming in a few weeks so after searching a fair bit I have whittled it down to two. 1. Scorpion SNR019 with centre...

    Dan…’s Titanium Renaultsport 182

    Nice pic in the garage Dan - looks mint. I'm just outside Lincoln and I've used @MicKPM at Diamond Motors the last couple or three years. April (ish) he did belts, dephaser, front brakes, full service. He also replaced some missing covers that had been left off by Renault the last time it had...

    RB182 Daily Thread

    Shame this didn't last long! I had someone offer £4k for my 182 Cup (05) last week. But wouldn't be til a couple of months time. Thinking about it :grinning: Just had full alignment done (after bedding the Cooksports in) and replaced all the exhaust mounts, so its good all round as far as I...

    182 Cup - Front springs help

    Yes mate, I would recommend them. For the price, I can't see why anyone would buy the expensive renault ones, other than keeping dead standard. I didn't want aftermarket springs, but I'm please I did. Handling is improved, feels more planted to the road, not by much, but I expect compared to...

    My clio Mk1 F7R and my newest edition Clio 182 (Wintery pics)

    Nice examples there fella What do you think to the Milltek.? Build quality, fit , noise My standard exhaust has just about given up the ghost, and I'm torn between Scorpion SRN019, KTEC Sport (silenced), and Milltek I've read a few reports that the Milltek build quality and fit is shoddy, but...

    How to neutralise a windscreen!

    The kit comes with hand polishing pads, but a small rayon pad for a dual action would be the nuts. :cool:
