    182 engine rebuild - some advices

    Any high temp paint should be fine. Vapour blasting will clean up the parts to a factory finish.

    172 Cup bought for £8,135

    When you think a 205 gti sold for 40 grand it’s not unrealistic to think low milage, low owner clios will be getting towards that territory in 10 years time.

    Frayz's Inferno 182 - Back in the old flame

    I think the best thing to do is find someone with a turbo clio who will let you have ago. There’s something about being able to rev out a na engine that I always find myself missing with older style turbo’d cars.

    Replacement engine bay carpet / heat shield?

    Clean it and paint/dye it usually brings it up nice again.

    Big Steve's RB Clio 182 Cup Restoration

    Both I think not a massive amount just to even out the arch gap around the wheel.

    Just put engine back in, solid immobiliser light

    Wiring fault somewhere also check the relays for water/corrosion.

    Uneven exhausts

    Put a jack under the exhaust to take the weight, undo the mounts and the clamp to the center section then jiggle it about until you get it in position. They are a bit of a nightmare to get lined up tbh, you can spend ages getting it right then soon as you drive it a bit the exhaust moves again.

    Emissions

    Saw Chris from efi post about dodgy eBay injectors so could be your issue?

    Emissions

    If the ecu is receiving no signal from the lambda either the sensor is faulty or you've got a wiring loom fault somewhere.

    Monaco 172 (make it mint)

    Yeah I did that on the first one but it was taking to long, drill had the heads off pretty fast. Anyone who wants some semi decent cheap metal bits these are pretty good cut like butter if you drill a pilot first. https://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-straight-shank-hss-drill-bits-25-piece-set/2726v

    France warns Renault could disappear

    Yeah but that was happening anyway, all the RS models bar the Megane have been discontinued and I can’t see the Megane sticking around much longer either. Renault basically seem to be doing a Peugeot atm.

    Any ideas, video included

    Find where the waters got in basically.

    Fred and James’ Clio 182 Racecar Project

    Great work! Planning on sticking mine on a jig in a few weeks too how have you connected it to the rear out of interest? Did you also find much corrosion underneath the seam sealer at all?

    Air compressor

    After an air compressor to power die grinders, spraying equipment and a blasting cabinet. I figure I need something with a 14cfm rating to cover all the bases, been looking at the Clarke raider and boxer series. Would anyone recommend anything else (£500 max)

    Clio Sport 182 Gearbox (2004)

    Take the undertray off and see if you can get it out of gear by wiggling the selector about.

    Car wont start

    Before you start changing any parts try jumping it with the negative on the engine block this should rule out a bad earth.
