    Supercharge the 182 or get something else?

    IMO it's just a bit too complicated to work properly!! But like I said that's my opinion, just doesn't look reliable, good idea but I personaly I just would rather loose aircon as the current design is unbeatable, simple, effective!

    Engine mounts

    It just seems soooo much to spend! Suppose I'm going to have to bite the bullet and pay £210 for the lot really! Forgive me if this sounds stupid but what's the advantages of uprated mounts apart from there harder wearing!?

    Engine mounts

    But theres only 2 on the k-tec site, it doesnt show you a lower gearbox mount. I think for £175 you just get upper gearbox mount and upper engine mount! Im thinking of just buying: OEM lower gearbox mount - £20.70 OEM upper gearbox mount - £17.25 KTR upper engine mount - £90.85 (as it looks...

    will a 2005 182 gearbox fit my 172 ph1 2001

    I took mine to a local engineers they fitted the worm drive from my old 172 gearbox and drilled a tapered hole for the cable! Works perfect! cost me about £80 from the engineers but at the end of the day its a better box - bolt on diff instead of the crappy circlip type!

    Supercharge the 182 or get something else?

    I weighed this up when I got mine SC'd. I still went for it! Sooooo much fun! Although I do sometimes look at focus RS mk1's and think "hmmmm did I do the right thing?"

    steering rack play

    I have just removed my airbag as I thought that the torx bolt in the middle of the steering wheel had come loose, when I eventually got it off I noticed that the play is in the actual steering rack that the wheel bolts onto! It moves about 2mm each way - not good! :( Any suggestions?

    Quick clio's

    This would be an awesome feature to get all the forced induction clios together! Supercharger vs Turbo would be mint IMO!

    HAHA! Round here people take the piss out of Corsa's constantly! There little boys cars and people who own them get masses of disrespect, even if it had a big powered engine in, you would still get the 'ITS A CORSA' comment because its true! Ive never heard nobody taking the piss out of clios...

    Ben_Stevo172 - White Supercharged 172

    Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 So this is how the car sits with the standard springs re-fitted, ride is soooo much better but far less aggressive! Still handles well IMO. After Christmas my first purchases will be coilovers and a new exhaust. I got some new tyres fitted yesterday, I...
