black gold 182!!!!

I have just seen to many people jump straight in and think the car is stuck to road like glue and push it too hard. One example, is a guy went straight into back of a bus. I wonder how? If you know the limits of the brakes? Also standard pads wil fade easy if you brake alot.

I can do it when lifting off in third and blip the throttle, but also noticed its really loud when lifting off at top of second gear around 7500 rpm.;) Go and experiment, only way to do it.

dont bother. Most people will say throttle bodies, but you will only get around 210 - 220 bhp. I would save it until an already modified 172/182 comes along and get a bargain, as you lose too much money on modding these cars. Let someone else take the big hit.

didnt say they would fit.:o They wont fit my current car.

probably £100 ish.

Should do. Roll the windows down and listen.

Hello. Bit of advice, take it easy till you know the car, then take it easy some more.

430 for my second hand H+R coilovers.:)

Have you noticed the popping yet? Go to top of 2nd a lift off.:)

Cool, can i park next to you.lol. Would be good to have the quicks one together. I got all my engine polished and header tanks, hoses and all that. A good clean and it may be worthy of your car's company.

Coilovers are the only mod to do. dont chase any power on na engine, too expensive. But saying that, I would probably have done it myself if i kept the 172. I have some H+R coilovers for your car, I'm willing to let them go for almost half retail price.:)

Cool! :) How quick is your turbo then?

no offence, but looks like your has had one of those line painting things drive over it. Those stripes look odd.

On my 172 it is not far from the battery. Just follow the wire down and you should find it.

bugger, was hoping it was 1 litre.lol.

Could be earth. My earth cable has erroded away, so i stripped it back to fresh wire, bought a new terminal from halfords and fixed it back on. I would first try to clean the terminals, that might fix it too.

What is the difference between max and minimum on the dipstick? I am going to be trying to record my oil usage and would like to convert it to litre by measuring the dipstick. I'm sure I have a little leak.

I take spare oil just in case.:)

look for the hole in the bulkhead where the cable for the bonnet release goes through. :) Any of the bolts in the boot are good for earthing.

thats why i got my third clio.:evil:

No chance, never letting my third clio go now. This one is for keeps.

If they give you anything more than 6500 rip their hand off.

was definitely a good move. :) Gone from 179bhp to at least 250+ ;) I wouldnt go from standard 172 to standard 182 though, just not enough differences between the cars. Unless you got a lob on for a particular colour?

The difference on my insurance, having just gone from a 172 to 182 is 80 quid for the remaining five months.

I would weld some mounting plates onto floor to increase surface area that you will be using to fix to. Good luck with it though, would love to see results, as I dont think its been done before on here.:)

:rolleyes: nooo.

Get it welded better.

Down south.lol. In the middle. If you find me, you can hold the camera while i do a 0-160 run.:evil: girlfriend doesnt want to know.

It is. Better exhaust flow if you keep the exhaust hot.
