Re: "Mechanically Inept" Dave.'s TDF'd ITB & Cammed 182 Oh Dave, see that's why I don't feck around with anything mechanical. Lol Funnily enough, mine is leaking in exactly the same place. Keeps pooling near the furthest left ht lead.

Looks nice mate. But how come your yoz sits soo far in? The tail pipes don't look like they are protruding or even flush with the bumper.

Hope so too mate! Like you, my funds are diminished after indulging on the trumpets! Yep mine is daily driven, about 57k on the clock. Would be a slightly easier drive it it was raised a bit from its current rather low stance on 2118's - however it looks cool and I have no problems holding up...

Ah s**t, that sucks Andy. Always something with these cars. My newly replaced PAS pump isn't sounding too healthy at the mo.

Re: Project 172k Trophy, & its endless track abuse My waterpump made a really strange rattly/ whirring noise, most evident on tickover when it was on it's deathbed. Might be worth mentioning to Tom as you say.

Kam Racing I believe are a little cheaper. Good info here: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?558954-powerflex-dog-bone-mount..&highlight=dog+bone+mount And Dave's guide to fitting: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?540329-182-172-Powerflex-Dogbone-Mount-Fitting

Sure this was in the corner of AWT when I had a service there in Nov 08. I thought Ben had said he had bought it though?

Awesome, an ITB'd Trophy. Was wondering if you were going to take the plunge and get a few more horses under the bonnet. Have been running ITB's since January, and am loving them. What's the news with the interior repairs/ refresh Andy?

Look good mate, was going to get some before I picked up some 2118s instead

I had to bend the metal clips slighty when I did mine as the pads that Fred supplied had a metal backing plate which meant the clip wouldn't reach round the side of the pad initially. I had the top part of the clip between the carrier and the 'ear' on the pad

Cades Eros'?

Looks awesome mate, love a good flamer.

I would guess he sprayed the whole thing and then sanded the letters

Someone had an awesome retrim on their 197 interior, put pics up in the week. I'll see if I can find the thread now Andy. Pow: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?563507-Nice-R27-re-trim Throw money at that company!

That's quite scary, I was going to start a topic in here after we were speaking at the meet. I'm well up for it, although the early start is gonna be a killer!

Did you refit the spacer before putting the disc back on? Sometimes it gets stuck inside the old disc

Pm pritchard182 (Dan) as I know he has one. Otherwise search "prospeed" on here and fire off some pm's to those who have had 182 systems fitted.

Mine too mate, had clayed only a few weeks back too. Boo hoo. Gonna get some Tardis i think, see if I can get it clean again.

Stage 2 what mate? A remap or engine package?

Zip ties. Mine is in 4 pieces with 3 zip ties holding it together.

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon Vagina Boob obsessi Schweet. Tell me my internet friend, how much of a pain was it to paint your rocker cover. Mine is desperate for some paintage.

ASW! ;) Looks good mate, amazing the difference a drop in height makes. Looking forward to seeing it at the next meet.

Remap, as you intimated, will not gain you 30bhp. A couple of options really, both TDF (Cambridge) and RS Tuning (Leeds) have good reputations and are no bullshit when it comes to remapping. Or you could go the diy route and get a Rs Tuner to plug in and install a pre written map yourself. My...

;)

My 182 was RR'd at TDF in Jan at 167bhp.

Funnily enough, I ran out of Duragloss a few weeks back, so picked some of the Zymol shampoo and was really impressed too.

Nice one Danny, will look out for it when I next go in.

Would like to get mine painted ideally, but wouldn't know where to stop- front and rear bumper, bonnet, rear arches etc. To be fair, mine would probably look better if I got the 3 tons of tar off it that the local roadworks have abstractly splattered on it.

Still planning on getting the front end painted mate? Or have you binned that idea.
