sounds like the car isn't recognising the keys for some reason. It's strange that one starts it but doesn't unlock it. May be two issues. Could be as simple as resyncing the keys with CLIP.

you'd hope not :)

i can imagine. do you recon you'd notice that much difference over the sportlines though?

Re: My aircon removal (clioproject beginning) nice workmanship mate. car's looking good to. Get those rear belts removed, no point having them if there is no one to stap in back there ;)

very true. Can't remember what he wanted for them now, something like 2.5k, but I agree a tad steap when racing on a budget.

Some going in sale section boys ;)

new head it is then. I'm not sure what you're closest specialist is, but give them a ring and see which is the cheapest option. For me, it's either, new head, refurbed, fitted and new belt kits, or just get a second hand lump and chuck it in.

How bad is the spark plug thread? can it be salvaged? 1)The block "should" be fine, but you'll only find out when you take the head off (unless you can scope the engine). 2)Head would have to come off to repair, but the block could stay in situ. 3)Refitting a new head, with new belt kits...

I'll second that. Plus the idle is improved. RSTuner is also good for diagnostics though. Great piece of kit.

oh hai ;) Where you guys heading this year? Dave, don't sell it mate, you've spent so much time, money and effort on this car, it would be a waste really. However, if you want to try and get a CS record for modding then selling up I think you might win that ;)

very nice as always mate. Love the bright colouring :D Did custom cages get back to you regarding the lack of harness bar?

Looks very meet as usual chris :) it started ok?

Presumably it's your inlet valves (exhaust are different iirc) that are fubard? I will have 8 spare in a few weeks if that's all you decide to go for. Funny you should mention the idles stipping itself. I've got a spare engine in my shed and exactly the same thing happened to that one. Overly...

Result :D

Nice pics Dan. What lens you use for the disco stuff? Flash?

What's up with it? Battery is mahooosive.

It can, but due to the aggressive nature if them plus being clutched they wear out. I've heard that they are jerky too on road cars. We aren't knocking it mate, just a Saturday night discussion ;)

Surely ktec should have told you the pros and cons :S

167 is about average for a standard 182 though. Think mine ran 177 with exhaust and inlets

That torque is too high. Should be about 155ish. Bhp looks normal though

Sounds nice :)

Cheers mate. Thought there may have been something that stripped it easily. Elbow grease is probably the only way

Will yours be identical spec wise?

Sad times indeed Dave :( turn down the boost a bit and take up meditation ;)

Maybe you don't any more, but you used to have to

Sticker and yellow fogs for French iirc. Tbh I'm not a fan of the gb plate on blue cars. Normally the look better.

:approve: although only second hand as it pains me paying £1500 extra for it

I'm can't believe that that makes sense to me. Maybe the beers helping :) great impartial advice as always matt

What are you competing in by the way?

You sure you're not into 6 figures yet ;) sounds epic that mate :D
