New willy wheels and janspeed fitted recently.
exhaust fit to the bumper pics first, Coops mod to get it to sit proudm, can just read the janspeed branding :)
Considering some new pads for the 182, however I am a bit of a tart with my wheels and I don't want to shag them with un-cleanable dust

When I have a song with some bass (yo) it rattles the rear door cards like mad, sounds not good!
common fault and easy fix or am I best off getting stuck in and investigating?

BBC3 rerun of an episode from few years back, Hammonds on about scrapping old cars and when theres a down the side shot of the mazda 323 in the garage, theres a LY 182 on the drive at the house opposite :)
Popped the Turinis on, cleaned it and found the old SLR kicking about looking sad for itself, so stretched the car and the cameras legs and took a couple of snaps not on phone camera for once
comments and criticisms welcome as always, and yes I know the headlight washer is still missing...
As the superlegs have only been on for a week and are about to come off again to use the tyres at shakespear this weekend on the mk 1 I figured i'd best get a couple of snaps!
firstly two apologies, one I forgot the decent camera so the noisey photos are from my phone :( fail! and also excuse...
Are 172, phase 1 and 2 and 182 injectors all essentially the same? i.e. can all be interchanged without issue? And if so can they be totally mismatched or must be kept in complete sets of same type?
Cheers

Right, thought i had sorted my issue but it ran fine for about 60 miles and its died again
symptoms are it runs like a bag of spanners on idle, if you hold throttle at lowish revs it hunts a bit and feels hesitant but floor it and it seems to pull well and smoothly?
so far i have (all to no...

I did a quick couple of searches in the obvious places but couldn't easily find the answer I seek
what is the official and correct offset for each clio mk2 sport model? so:
- phase 1 172
- phase 2 172
- phase 2 172 cup
- phase 2 182
- phase 2 182 cup/FF
- phase 2 182 trophy

tried a search but too many hits :(
whats the deal with arch liners, are they all the same for the sports? or are the phase 1 and phase 2 different, are the 172 and 182 different?
ones i'm on about specifically are the front ones that connect to the bumper, but full rundown on the rest...
I took my front bumper off tonight and noticed that the lower 2 fixings to the subframe and associated panel/plastic tray part are completely missing
can these be had seperately and my bumper repaired? or is it new bumper time?
thanks

Just bought a slightly tired whiteline arb and the outer bushes are a bit worse for wear

I know the subject of inlets has been covered multiple times but I cant find a definitive answer and I'm bored of the search function having spent the last 20 fruitless minutes attempting to figure it out for myself.
