Haha, I know what you mean when someone else helps out and they drop the cloth. Just like me. Reminds me of this, me to a tee... There is a video below here, just click on the empty white space! Nice looking motor btw, love it!

They are actually very good tyres in the wet! Obviously not as good as a dedicated rain tyre, but I remember buying them partly because of the fact a lot of reviews said they were pretty good in the rain for a semi track day tyre. They replaced a set of Parada Spec 2s at the time, which in...

Hi guys Jumped in the car today, and first thing I noticed was that the heater blower was on full which wasn't how I left it. Anyway, tried to turn the speed down but it didn't do anything. Even if I press the 'off' button it just comes out at maximum speed! Tried pressing all different...

185/55/15 being the OEM size from memory? As you say not a large range in this size, but if it was me I would be going Yokohama AD08R as they make those in that size. Had a set of AD08s (before they brought out the uprated AD08R) on a 306 GTI, and they were incredible tyres. I'd say the best...

I can confirm that you can still get hold of GSD3s. I had a set of 4 fitted to my 182 a couple of months back in 205/45/16, which you can see in my project thread. Fantastic tyres, had them on many of my previous cars when they were more readily available and find them really good. Bonus for me...

Not sure Marc as can't tell too easily from the photo. Number 11? Just the originals. One of my stickers is part number 8200244633. The other has the corner missing so no part number. But on the far right of the sticker it has a warning about the correct air conditioning refrigerant.

Sad times :( but I'm sure you'll enjoy the RS or M3.

That's perfect, thanks guys! Will take a look at the bottom of the sticker.

Anybody know where I can get the black rectangular Renault stickers which go on either side of the top of the grille underneath the bonnet? Mine starting to not look the greatest and would like some new ones. Ash

Cheers for the kind comments chaps. Not much of an update, but I ordered a few decals from a guy on here @Ady182 (n2grafix) and they arrived Friday, so I got them fitted today. Firstly, I ordered one of the new style 'Elf' decals to replace the original OEM one in the back window. It just ties...

Drove past Rentech in Portsmouth today, and noticed a Lunar Grey R26R parked up. Couldn't help but pull up to take a couple of photos. So much want!!

Cheers mate. Haha yeah they are still here.

Oh that was you then, just past Loomies? I remember flashing to a Blue Megane but wasn't sure if it was you or not, just being friendly to another Renault Sport owner! But I did think after it might have been you. So yes it was me, was heading to Aldershot to pick up those wishbones.

Not a great deal to update with in this last week. The last parts I needed for my suspension refresh were a pair of wishbones. Cheapest I have seen a pair of genuine ones for is from a Renault Parts supplier on eBay at £100 posted for the pair which is a very reasonable price. I was going to...

Pretty normal I would think? Probably just the idle dropping due to switching air con on. Bit like if you use both electric windows at idle, or a lot of electrical things at once, revs will dip slightly.

Yeah there is one that frequents around Hayling Island, see it at The Ship Inn quite often. Remember talking to the guy a few months back, and he took me for a quick spin in it. He also has (or did have unless he has sold it) a very, very nice Renault 5 GT Turbo in Grey which is absolutely mint!

I was in the Black Gold 182 as we went through Farlington and then Cosham. Red 172, Phase 1. Anybody on here?

So I had a delivery from Mark Fish today... can not bloody wait to get all this fitted along with the Trophy dampers and all the rest of my suspension parts!

😂

Well there is a white 200 normally parked up on Beaufort Avenue, I left a ClioSport flyer on the window about a month ago. I live like two roads away, often go past it.

Both nice cars mate, wouldn't mind either. Just make sure you get a good'un if you get an E46, they do have their issues, but nice cars! :)

Yeah I know the feeling mate, can't help but spend money on these motors. What you been eyeing up? Mk1 Focus RS again still? They've become fairly common on the roads of Portsmouth now lol, know of a few!

Yeah I was talking to Mike about spacers as he has just fitted some. And I mentioned that you had some which he fitted. Then he said you had been down there same day to have MOT lol. Did she pass with flying colours?

So I swapped over the mechanism from my Ph2 stalk into the Ph1 stalk, and auto-cancel indicators are now working again. Sorted! Also refitted the airbag resistors and taped up all the plugs sitting inside the hub just to ensure none touch each other. Airbag warning light has been off all...

Thanks mate, ought to be for the money I've spent! What was yours down the for? The wheel bearing? Yeah can't wait to get it all fitted and try out the Sachs. Shouldn't be too long now.

Yep, stealth mode haha! Well, apart from the exhausts as you say! Notice you are from Fareham. Don't suppose you are the guy that lives along Beaufort Avenue off Arundel Drive?

Yep that would have been me. Don't remember seeing a white 200, must have missed you!

On Tuesday evening, I went and picked up a decat pipe for a very reasonable price of £25. Thought I would give one a go, and if I don't like it then I can always swap the original cat back in. A set of bullets came up for sale from Simon at Spray Shack, Anthracite with '2.0 16v' in black...

Hi guys Recently fitted my Sabelt wheel and hub this weekend. I bought 2 resistors (3.9ohm) from Maplin and put these into the airbag plugs. When I connected battery back up and first started car, lights went out as you would expect and stayed out. Anyway, the last few days, the lights have...

Looking nice mate. Good job on the headlights! Just recently done my rear number plate lens too, makes such a difference doesn't it!
