    Knocking, is it an engine mount?

    put money on it being an engine mount, i get this too, i've had a cv joint go before and its NOT this. I think its the engine/manifold hitting the bodywork/subframe, i'm getting a new dogbone mount, and having a play with the mounts in the next few weeks

    Going from Magnex to standard....

    new its all one system from the cat, but if one part of the section fails the system is cut round the rear axel area. You can then either buy a seperate centre section, or backbox, depending whats failed

    Going from Magnex to standard....

    yep i''ve done this, i brought a magnex as the centre section on my stock exhaust broke with some enthusiastic driving :o .... liked the way it sounded but wasn't too taken with the looks..... then the magnex centre section developed a rattle, sold it and got a new reno centre section (up to...

    172 'bobbly' ride

    182 brake failure

    i've been running 2500 pads, with standard new discs since the summer and they are superb, really nice bite, and work well from cold, think the problem must lie else where

    imola bucket seats

    did mine the other day, i have cobra daytonas fitted in a cup....... To remove O.E seats you will need deep 13mm socket, 8mm (for battery), trolly jack and axel stands maybe some wire cutters....and some torx bits 1. Disconnect battery 2. jack up car. Starting from the passenger side...

    single pipe 182

    was there any reason with just having one pipe?
  18. Gaz_

    When shoeing it hard I get a grinding, metal on metal type noise???

    its probably the two nuts that are an absolute tw@t which bolts up the cat to the manifold...... we put the de cat on mine, all nice and tight, then it developed a rattle, on inspection we found these nuts loose again, the cat must have moved slightly (bedded in) worth a check

    Gaz Coilovers

    it was the rear shocks on mine, they were awfull, maybe just a bad batch? i did indeed fit the rubber cups (only the top half mind as the adjusters sit in the rear trailing arms).... to prove it was the dampers, i fitted the O.E reno units for a day and the noise vanished.... i think it was...

    Gaz Coilovers

    i'm not convinced you'll get this from the gaz units, i never did
  25. Gaz_

    Gaz Coilovers

    yeah, thats right, the gaz units themselves are the same as the 172 units though.... its a shame you can't get any H&Rs etc for the 182, you either have to pay maga money for leda's etc, or gaz, there is nothing inbetween

    Gaz Coilovers

    the gaz ones are poor, ok for the price, but i beleive FK's are better. on my car the gaz ones were very noisy, especailly the rears, and made the ride very choppy etc, i now have h&R's and the difference is like night and day, MUCH better
