    Programming Careers

    Figured there must be a few of you on here that can offer some pointers. I’ve got a fair bit of spare time on my hands at the moment so I’m going to have a crack at teaching myself Python as a back up/future career option. I already have experience writing scripts for 3ds Max in Python so I’ve...

    iPhone 12

    I’ve had face ID for 3 years now and I’d still prefer touch ID. The issues I have with Face ID is it doesn’t work if my phones flat on a desk or if it’s in a cradle in a vehicle without car play. Only way it’s better for me than touch so far is if my hands are covered in grease I can still...

    Face ID’s never been as good as Touch ID imo. I wish they’d find a way to reimplement it.

    It's always something unexpected that gets you brake servo went on mine and I had some fun at the lodge, thought I'd pressed the clutch by accident. 😂

    Punchier brakes

    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.. 😂

    Existing bolts , has anyone got them reconditioned galvanised ?

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

    What brand and type exhaust is this?

    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.

    What brand and type exhaust is this?

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

    172 with Megane 265 engine?

    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.

    172 with Megane 265 engine?

    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.

    A Monaco Blue 2002 Clio 172

    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.

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

    Snatching brakes

    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.

    Garage Flooring

    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.

    Cup alternator?

    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.

    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...

    F4R forged cranks

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

    ABS

    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.
