I doubt you will notice much difference you have to really push the brembos to get them to overheat on a 182. Something else usually breaks before you get to that point.. 😂

Reminds me of a tiny evoque.

So the Megane is becoming an suv then.

Wrexham metal finishing do it I think, might be worth asking them.

The backbox looks correct but I'm not sure that centre section will fit in it. Also there should be a third exhaust mount that bolts to the car, that you will need so check that's not missing.

However after looking at this for a bit I think the center section isn’t the correct one.

It is a Ktec Ultra Performance coproduced with janspeed.

Ain’t that the truth. Every renault I’ve tried the gearbox is awful, they really should have packed it in an gone to zee Germans for em.

Cost is going to be the biggest issue and it’s a lot of work for 265 horses compared to turboing a standard engine.

Boot stop things near rear lights, if you do a search it’s a common issue.

I’d bet water is getting in somewhere else and the previous owner has made a hole in that bung to drain it out if you haven't inspected the rear bungs and scuttles it may be worth the effort.

haha always catch myself thinking " what a knob" when I see something with a loud exhaust... then I remember I was that knob. 😂

Pretty much this, only way to make them quieter is to reduce the pipe bore.

Ran them with no issues for years here, have you bedded them in properly? Only other issue could be with the master cylinder, might not have noticed it before with the old discs/pads.

I’ve got some of the coin pattern stuff and it’s held up well to the abuse over the last few years. Only issue I’ve had is you get any solvents on it they will make it sticky.

Yeah sorry I forgot the cup was fitted back to front. I wonder if it’s possible to flip round the regulator so you can get the plugs in.

Isn't that one pictured just fitted the wrong way round?

Finally had some weather to use this and its been excellent. Feels almost exactly like heated seats in a car do especially worn under another coat, nice an toasty when your stood about. My only gripe is the placement of the battery pocket on the back, feels a bit weird and is annoying when you...

Does it matter? As Rob said Renault probably moved manufacturing to a forged process and no longer make the cast item.

Lazy mans oil change on the “murder van”.

Cup packed cars have 15mm wide rings, normal ones are 7mm. Both will work its just difficult getting the thinner rings in the correct position on a cup packed 182.

You can export stuff so you can work offline but it’s a hassle. I’m sure they do it on purpose to get everyone working online constantly.

Tbf I’ve found a lot of the time once you know one software it’s pretty easy to switch over. No way I’m paying 15 grand for Geomagic at home.. :LOL: Yeah I’ve basically got a connects 2 box and a Bluetooth receiver I need to pull apart and model up as my starting point.

No I use Geomagic in work and fusion on my own stuff at home, I like it tbf it’s a nifty little program. It’s really easy to use, did the 1hr tutorial on the official YouTube, then copied a few examples to practice. I’ve vaguely got a project on the go to try and make something to give the...

I’d be inclined to speak to a few more shops if it’s the pretty standard corrosion a lot of the clios are getting. Replacing the whole panel seems like a lot of unnecessary work, and that’s coming from the guy stripping his whole shell to have it resprayed... :LOL:

Seems a tad extreme if the metal on the existing panel is ok and just needs treating?

I think they've delayed the iPhone this year so might be no black friday I'm afraid.

@jameswrx I think sprayed his?

They go off the plated weight not the actual weight so your way over on a standard license I'm afraid.

Sky’s the limit on engine rebuilds, I’d budget a £1000 minimum for a basic rebuild if your getting someone to do the work.
