I rang Paul about this and was recommended against it as he said they don't run well with ITB's on standard management.

good find! How much was the shipping?

Been a good read! Tidy install, looking to do the same myself. Interested in the result.

Nice work, looks awesome!

Rely enjoyed the read. Will be keeping an aye out for updates, interested in the result!

This is my 3rd clio (2 DCi's before this one) have had it on the road for 6 months, covered 13k and done 4 trackdays. Croft twice, Cadwell Park (Awesome track) and donnington park. I bought it as a mint condition standard example with FRSH and only 47k, I did plan to keep it standard but that...

Just seen this on pistonheads, seriously what a fool he has made of himself. As if he thought he could get away with it! http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=e43_1348280333

Why wouldn't it work? The circlip is held in by the casing so effectively all you are doing is replacing it with a bolted in ring. You wouldn't bolt the ring to the diff because that wouldn't support anything if you know what I mean. The thrust washer should still go between the ring and diff...

Remember the plate bolts to the gearbox casing so the size of the shoulder is to allow for the thickness of the casing to keep it all in place.

Not worth it, minimal gains! Your standard cat wont fit, you will need a 182 manifold to 172 exhaust conversion cat! It will cost £500 for the 182 manifold and cat!

You should be able to save around 96 kg with carbon pannels over the standard unchoped units! Say your car is 190 bhp and 950 kg now 190 / 0.95= 200 bhp per ton - the 96kg weight saving gained from the doors = 854 190 / 0.854= 222 per ton Set of throttle bodys and cams= 210bhp 210/...

Very nice. As for mods, personally I wouldn't bother as there well sorted to start with and you will get very minimal gains. I'd personally just keep it in good tires (Always surprised at the amount of performance cars on crap tires) and get all the services done at Renault to keep the warranty...

Alex, I do that all the time. People are so ignorant they couldn't care less about other peoples motors.

182. 21, had it for a year.

Yeah that's equivalent to running a 50 N/mm rear coilover spring if there sat in the standard location.

Honestly don't waste you money. For what you can pick a 172 up for these days its not worth the hassle.

Also one thing to bear in mind is James is using a coilover rear set up which gives a 1:1 leverage ratio, standard spring location gives a 2:1 leverage ratio so you will need to double the spring rate to give the same effective rate.

Just used a conversion app on my phone 630 lb/in fronts 545 lb/in rears

I have had koni shocks on mine and it wasn't any noticeably lower.

While you have the front end jacked up check the track rod ends have no play in them by giving the wheel a rock left to right.

By moving the drop link into the front hole you are giving the bar less leverage thus giving it more anti roll effect. You have placed the mounting bracket at the correct angle as this matches the angle of the drop link allowing the bushes to sit flat.

Woops I ment 106 haha! Yeah you have seen me in consett area in a back 182 around the back end of last year.

Looks very nice. Is this Rudda who had the low flat arch saxo with the vtr lump in by any chance?

Don't think I would even put it in my 1.5D 106 haha

If your going to do more than 5 trackdays a year there defiantly worth it, they have adjustable damping so you can fine tune the handling. Sportlines handle allot better than standard suspension, just too soft and don't offer any adjustment.

RSX's, Sportlines are too soft for a trackday car. Just replaced my Sportlines with RSX's. There quite abit stiffer!

My 182 suffers from it aswell with high profile tyres now its on coilovers, must have more travel.

Any rubbing?

PE2's, pararda spec 2's are gash in anything but bone dry.
