    how much are my turinis worth???

    Any pictures? I'd say anywhere between £400-550, maybe? Just a guess based on seeing others for sale.

    Video of my clio 172 with overrun map

    May I ask what the appeal of this is? It sounds and looks incredibly annoying.

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    Nice shots; on the first one though, and with people in general, try to focus on the eyes.

    Expenditure on my car 182 so far

    Engine dropped a valve and everything broke (from that description you can probably tell I am not a mechanic :)) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?509870-I-ve-just-broken-down-and-it-sounded-expensive&highlight=it+sounded+expensive

    Expenditure on my car 182 so far

    Well, my experience hasn't been great either. I bought the car in April 2010: (These prices are off the top of my head, but they were there or there abouts): Car price - £4,900 PAS pump replacement - £400 (I'm sure I got ripped off for this) 4 x PE2s - £500 (ripped off because they quoted me...

    Easy induction sound (unplugging a pipe?)

    A few days after doing this and I am really please I did. The sound is really nice in my opinion, and I haven't noticed anything different with the way the car drives, it just has a bit more grunt. Nothing over the top, just a bit of a growl when you get higher in the rev range :)

    Your Best on Flickr?

    Thanks Luke, I chased it and was gutted to miss it landing, but it turned out to be a bit better with it half deflated :)

    Your Best on Flickr?

    Thanks dude. I seem to only do weddings and events now as it's something I'm pushing quite a lot, which is great money wise, but I haven't done any photography for myself for some time now. Planning a shoot with Helen (gf) next weekend though, weather pending :)

    Hurrah, my piece of **** 182 has a new rattle

    I thought I'd update this as the problem has finally been fixed; so just in case anyone else has similar symptoms. I had a Milltek cat back fitted, and this removed the horrible rattle at around 6k revs. The knocking/rattle on acceleration was there for another month after until a local garage...

    Do I have issue's?

    I aim to clean mine once a week, but at the moment it's more like once every two weeks.

    cheap mods make 182 quick

    Enjoy it for what it is and save for a better car. I just realised this is an incredibly unhelpful post. I'll take myself out the back and shoot myself.

    Stalling on full lock at idle

    Sorry for the late reply. My PAS pump was around £150 I think, but the labour cost a fair amount due to its location, so cost nearer £400 in total. Although I think I was ripped off a bit. Well worth taking it to a garage though to check just in case.

    I really really need to get to the bottom of this rattle. Please help!

    Well, I am amazed, but extremely happy to say that after around 3 months IT IS GONE!!! HURRAH! I am so happy, it is FINALLY running as it should *touch wood*.

    What Exhaust and panel filter..

    How about a Milltek? /runs from Fred PS. I love mine, perfect balance of looks and sound, without being over the top (with standard cat by the way)

    I really really need to get to the bottom of this rattle. Please help!

    Well, it's been in a local garage today and they called me to say they have fixed it. I am picking it up in an hour, so we shall see. They say they have: - Adjusted the heatshield - Adjusted two of the engine mounts (can't remember which ones) - Replaced a missing bracket on the airbox It...

    Very nice indeed. Really like all the carbon fiber details.

    Unfortunately this still hasn't been fixed. James and Tom at JMS were kind enough to spend a few hours looking into it whilst it was serviced, and they tried a few things but to no avail. Unfortunately there was no access to a.....errrm, big car lifty up thing, so they weren't able to get access...

    182 EXHAUST FITTING...

    I've read that getting the old exhaust off will be half the battle, especially if you're just up on axle stands.

    Easy induction sound (unplugging a pipe?)

    I just yanked mine out and went for a quick drive. Certainly makes a nice sound now :) It's definitely safe, yes? One thing that concerned me though, there appeared to be some oil spillage around the entrance of the CAF and also at the entrance of the airbox. Is this normal?

    Quick Waxes

    AG Aqua Wax was pretty good when I used it. Then again my knowledge is minimal so my definition of 'good' is probably very much different to most here. However it was easy to apply, and is still beading nicely a few weeks after applying it. Again, having said that, I don't know what constitutes...

    Awesome. Does it make much difference to the noise then?

    Easy induction sound (unplugging a pipe?)

    Cool, thanks for the quick reply. Sounds easy enough to do so I'll see if I notice a loss in power and decide which I would prefer.

    Easy induction sound (unplugging a pipe?)

    Is this the one going into the airbox from the right? If so, how is it attached? I can't feel anything connecting it but when pulling it away from the airbox it won't budge. Also, do you pull the whole pipe out or leave it loose once you've disconnected it? Is there any power loss from doing...

    Size of a packaged fabia splitter?

    As above, large pizza style box. It's very bendy so you should be fine. Put each end down either trouser leg.
