Plus a decat. Decats make the most noticeable difference from my experience

Not really a hard job just a awkward one especially threading it through the bulkhead.

Its a **** of a job best left to folk who know what there doing. One mistake could cost you your engine if you dont do it right Thats on a FF mind

Standrad 182 Exhaust wont bolt straight on as explained by the spare wheel well being there. A custom exhaust centre would be your best bet IMO it would chav it up

Even if it was running 200bhp it means F all on the open road if your car was lumping say 5 tons of ice about. RR's are great for setting up your car and getting a rough idea of its power. How rough varys from palce to place obviously

Tunnel vision syndrome. Only cure for it is a shunt up the ar5e lol

Same as me but mine wasnt fine after :dapprove: :) Not as bad as before tho Its nothing to worry about. Just a trait with these things

Open IK's are best avoided unless you can make a enclosure

Ive had mine on the back and they never rubbed and they dont rub on the front so you should be fine. Mines a ph1 172. Cups have a et of 38 as standard so there's only 1mm difference, as a guide :)

Looks like a bottle of Lambrini sprayed silver

Sure i only payed 55 each from Camskill a year back.

LOL it makes me smile every time i see this topic too :lolup: Place in Scotland i belive :)

You should get at least 60k out of it unless your drag racing every weekend

This has all been done before. Driver for driver there is bugger all in it but due to the weight loss the Cup is always going to have a slight advantage

Mine are et37 Are the ones you looked at brand new? old stock kind of thing? or second hand? Yeah i got my 2 cheap because i knew the lad who used to work at the breakers lol They were meant to be 40 notes each :cool:

I have a whistle that comes from the wiper blades. Flick your wipers when it starts and see if its that

I paid £20 each for my 2 front drag tyre'd up ones from a breakers, totally mint and with a 6 month warranty ;) Where did you find these ones for sale ?

There is nothing wrong with the standard clutch. Iv done nearly 100k with just short of 200bhp for most of the cars life and only on its second one which is no where near worn. Like stated, its overkill unless your gonna be abusing it by running big bhp on it

You think?? imo Magnex is one of the quieter systems by a fair way Im running a Magnex centre section with a Prospeed stealth back box. Got Charlie to make me it up so i didnt need to travel half the country. Had to wait for a Clio to go into his garage so he could copy the exact fit...

Waist of time i belive unless your running silly bhp

Cup gets its wider track from the change of wheel offsets. Never had equal length driveshafts unless im missing something

Battery dosent look like its holding charge thus like Lurk said, points to your alternator. Bob down to any garage. Should only take 2mins to confirm if its working correct

My very first mod was a Magnex. Never made any difference to performance what so ever. No loss and certainly no gains IMO unless your going to carry out breathing mods or mapping and are only buying it for the sound stick to just a back box

Lots of salvage yards around the country. Best bet is the yellow pages for your area or a google search. Not sure who you could get to fit it. You'd need to get the engine and gearbox mounts totally re-fabricatd to fit then there's the subframe, exhaust electrics etc etc Basic engine price...

Another added bonus with the VAG idea is there's always plenty of engines floating about and they are cheap. Never seen one 225 in at my breakers and their one of the biggest in Scotland!

He said tax not sex !

Mate of mine was telling me a story of how a guy wearing a watch with a metal strap welded himself to the wing of the car and recived massive burns all through touching positive and negative at the same time with a spanner. All batteries are evil :evil: :D

Hence why you had to have a new engine.... Thats a trading standards case if ever there was one.

Tyre weld is a temporary repair only Its not designed to be reliable its designed to get you home and no more.

Well they can put Cossie running gear into mini's so yes, anythings possible. Its all a question of cash at the end of the day Take one 225 floor pan. Resize to Clio length and width. Cut your 182 off at the bottom. Weld together. Hey presto - bobs your uncle, f4nny's your aunt one...
