Thought i would give the 197 a clay this weekend, as going to the nurburgring in a few weeks so want it all clean! Also went for a bit of a drive this afternoon in the sun :)
Hi there,

Hi all, decided eventually to swap my 182 in for an entry level 197. Its done 18k on a 56 plate - well pleased with the purchase! its got a Milltek fitted from the previous owner too!
Plans are to get the wheels powder coated in grey/black. Maybe some eibach springs. Also going to get some new...

Hi there,
Im having a problem with the front suspension creaking on my 2005 182. It only does it after driving for a while, im guessing its the front anti roll bar bushes (thought it was strut tops at first but the noise is def coming from the anti roll bar area under further inspection)...
Hi there,
Does anyone have any experience with Hankook RS2's? I got recommended by a friend with an Integra Type R - I was going for parada spec 2's but thinking of giving these a go as they are available in 205 45 16. Most of my driving will be on road with the odd track day / Nurburgring...
Went to the Riponian Rally today around the Helmsley area, got a fair few snaps!

Hi There,
When I bought my 182, the previous owner had lost the spare key, leaving me with just the one main key. Obviously im quite worried about losing it - as ill be needing to change all the locks etc if i do!
Im not particularly bothered about having 2 fully remote keys, I was...

Going to see this tonight, does anyone know anything about this car? I think it needs cam belt and aux belt changing.
Thanks

Not had chance to take some proper pics, but here is what we have at the moment. The 182 is mine, r27 is mums and the r26 is dads.
Its funny how we all have become RS converts!

I have a feeling this maybe a characteristic of the clio - as my 172 did the same thing (197 didnt do it at all) but I have noticed the 182 tends to slightly skip sideways when I hit a sunken grate, or a pot hole / bump in the road. The front rides over it, and as soon as the back wheels hit it...
Thought id post these - took a few shots of my mates Works Cooper S the other day!

Hi all,
Had the 182 up on the ramp lastnight, and saw a bend in the Manifold above the anti roll bar - it doesnt look like it has hit the roll bar, but I wasnt sure it looked right. Does anyone know if it should be like this?
Thanks
Nick
Hi there,
Wanting to do a 4 wheel alignment on my 182 back to factory settings, I pressume camber is not adjustable? does anyone know what the factory settings are for a 182 with cup packs?
Thanks

Hi there,
I have a 182 (55) with a Milltek Cat Back and Milltek Decat pipe (with Lambda in)
It was fine for the first 2/3 weeks, however after the EVO triangle run noticed the orange engine light appeared in the bottom right corner of the instrument panel. However the car feels to be...
