You dnt need to take the engine out buddy, we fitted cup setup on my bro's 172 and will be fitting a cup setup on my 182 next weekend, we take the front bumper off to give us alittle more room and easier to get the air con rad out.
Take all the old alternator off, unbolt pas, take all the...
Hi buddy, might sound madness, but I think ive meet you, I seem to remember your user name. A while back you didnt by any chance have some parts off a Clio mk1 valver that was being broke for parts in chesterfield, a funky blue 1 with white willy wheels, i think you had the exhaust gasket...
Im interested to see what she makes with them.
Not sure, hopefully if possible next months hopefully, see what happens. I popped up to clio spares other day and sorted myself a cup setup out just gotta wait for it to come in and pay for it etc.
Its a custom mix. As the inferno orange is a metalic and looks great in the sun, I wanted a black that was just as good, so the place I get my paint from I asked them to make me a funky black and that was the result.
Well the cams have come, unused and looking good, cant wait to get them fitted. Was up at RS Tuning on monday and tuesday and got talking to Paul and I said id got some ED cams, he said nice 1, never mapped one with those in so will be interesting to see what we can get from them.
Hi Buddy
Yeah ive bought my own TDs, the ones on the red R5 are the ones i used until mine came, gave them back to my mate now.
I was planning on a few more carbon fibre touches and a whiteline rarb and solid top mounts, but got to put that on hold for a bit, ive got myself a pair of engine...
I thought a update was due!
Over the past few days ive been painted up a few bits on the car.
Ive done the frong fog surrounds, rear bumper insert and both exhaust surrounds.
Im really happy with the results, looks sooooo much better painted up.
Now i want to the reno badges front and back...
We are back up RS Tuning on the 5th of September for a weak on the lower end of the map, so should have a good figure then.
When we last up at RS Tuning having the cams fitted, when mapping he was getting mapped it was a mighty hot day and fighting a battle with high inlet temps. So hopefully...
After reading this thread its made my mind up that im going to go for these cams.
Been looking into cams and which ones to go for etc. My bro has just had some 421 fitted but hes running ITBs and Gen90 and hes really happy with the catcams so that sorted which make to go for.
I was going to go...
I was in the same body when i got my 182, i wanted to upgrade the brakes, i went for some grooved and drilled discs, along with some DS2500 pads and goodridge braided lines, I also renewed the brake fluid with some uprated stuff.
All the above totally changed my braking ability
I just thought as my mates R5 is out of action for a few weeks ive use his. Hes got parada spec 2s fitted, great tyre in the dry, but alittle pants in the wet.
Been looking at yokohama c-drive's
Cheers buddy,
The mounts are ktec/vibra technics mounts, ive still got vibrations of them, but kinda knew i would due to the being uprated stiff mounts. I wouldnt say the vibrations are mega bad or anything, just give a nice solid feeling.
Mini ish update,
As my mates R5 GT is off the road at the moment, i thought id steal his Team Dynamic for a week or two, just to see how it looks etc,
Ive had them on for just over a week and im really happy with them, so much so im going to order me a set in the next week or 2, just got to...
I more than likely will at somepoint.
On a totally different note, ive got a guy round here in a white 197 put everytimes sees me puts hands up and flashes, keep wondering if hes on here
Just been through all 5 pages, its come along way from how it was when you got it. good work.
I shall keep my eyes open for it as I kinda local and around ripley way sometimes.
I believe it came from that way. I did a deal with a guy who had my CTR off me.
Hi buddy,
Mine are spot on, they look the same as they did when i bought them, im surprised hes melted his, they arent really close enough to get that hot really.
