Fitted Gaz top mounts frommy 182 to my ph1 earlier and something isn't right.. The oe mounts sat flush and with same thread at the top, clearly not the same with the Gaz ones.. They say fine on my 182. Any suggestions before I pull it all apart again? My mate removed oe top mounts from my Ph1...

So I've had my ph1 for about a month now and I'm really enjoying it. I'm not new to Rs ownership, 3 172 Cups, 3 182 and a 200. Can't really compare the 200,that was a fantastic car but the ph1 wins hands down out of the 172/182 for solid feel and fun factor Feels better built, more solid...

Will a 2.25 inch exhaust tip be an issue /restrictive on a Ktec 2.5 inch System? I want to have the stealth exit cut off and replace by a recessed straight exit on my ph1. Maximum subtle so id prefer 2.25 exit ideally with only a small cutout.

Will a silenced centre section make a decent difference to the loudness of my Ktec stealth? It's very loud at pretty much any rpm. It's on a ph1 with 182 manifold, link pipe and Supersport Center section. My 182 with a decat and non resonated Ktec /Janspeed was really raspy, not boomy and in...

Front end refresh ph1 172 Cup dampers- fit but what lower arms should go on? Difference between ph1 and Cup? Arb - Will my FF 182 arb fit a ph1? Only recently polybushed my 182 arb. Subframes - Different mounting point /bolt spacing? Steering rack - Any difference here? My 182 rack is...

Are any 2.25 inch systems available for 172? Any 2.25 182 manifold to 172 system link pipes available or best of having one made custom? Reason for 2.25 inch is I prefer more of a raspy note and less boomy motorway drone than the 2.5 inch systems I heard.

Am I right in thinking 172 Cup front & rear dampers fit direct on a ph1 with Cooksports? What lower arms? 172 Cup? Are rear damper top poly bush mounts worth it? Is the ph2 front arb thicker? Can it be swapped From ph1 to ph2? I have solid top mounts and would fit new Inner and outer TRE...

Hi guys, Bit of Advice needed - I can feel a vibration under loadon my 182 when the car is is warm. Definitely feels like my exhaust manifold is vibrating against metal. I had a look underneath and top paint coat of my front arb is all rubbed off, exactly In line with exhaust manifold but...

I was behind you in my bg 182 before that Impreza Sti became a nuisance!

Hey all, Wanted to post on here to see if anyone wanted to join our Renaultsport (and Others) car meet On Sunday, 24th September. There's a few of us in this area, our last meet was fun but we can triple the numbers on this quite easily. Feel free to invite others, doesn't have to be just...

I fitted a non resonated center section to my Decatted Janspeed /ktec system today and resprayed the tips and back box in high temp Matte black. Looks more subtle, looks mean so probably added a few bhp and I really like it. The noise Is great with the non resonated center, really raspy! No...

What could cause one of my front wheel to wobble like it's about to be come off?? Tracks perfectly straight then suddenly a violent wobble out of nowhere. So I naturally slow down. Did this out of nowhere with cruise control on at 40mph and also at 70mph I'm in a lay-by shitting myself...

I currently Have a a Decatted Scorpion SRN019 on my 182 with silenced center section. It's surprising quiet and I don't often drive it hard but I'm hoping for a bit more rasp (my old 106 Rallye had a Pugsport, if you know, you know!). Not really after anything much louder unless I can manage it...

Had a new clutch fitted a couple of weeks ago and have since had a rattle from the gearbox area. In neural, in gear and noticeable at low speeds at low noise. Will do it all the time. Clunky rattle like a release bearing. My gearbox was very quiet and smooth before. Never crunched, never...

Had some Team Dynamics Pro Rally 1s on my old 16v Rallye, wonder what a set may look like on my 182? In gold, white or anthracite if anyone fancies a go?
