If you buy a decent speaker with high sensitivity then there will still be a huge improvement. Something like the Focal range; try and squeeze in a 6.5" speaker if you can. There's a bit more work involved but the result is worth it.

Yes, the dash top isn't very hard to remove and then you can do a proper job and replace them with something decent. There was a guide but the site has closed. I think there might be something in the member's section???

Take your centre cap off one of your stock alloys and you should see "43" written under it IIRC (ie. 43mm offset.)

Any idea who sells these online and will ship overeas?

Straight from the horses mouth. http://www.renault.com.au/images/pdf/2004-09-16_Clio_182.pdf

While not a RSC, my wife's Mazda 6 had them on 17" rims (215/45R17). They gripped well and had excellent steering response, but at the expense of lots of road noise being transmitted into the cabin. The shoulders on them also wore out way before the rest of the tread- this seems to be a common...

That sounds promising. :) Who did you order the system from- their Ebay advert specifically says they don't send overseas (or outside the UK)?

Find someone with an RSTuner and get them to use the diagnostics (you can turn the fan on low and high speeds manually using the software) and do some data logging of your coolant temp wit hthe engine running.

Are they stock 182 alloys you weighed? Because I weighed one of mine with a PE2 that had done around 10000km (on the rear) and it was 17.5kg!

:) Fair enough. Good to have stuff like this posted up.

A cheap/ dodgy bipolar electrolytic capacitor (that is part of the tweeter assembly) is the "crossover" ;)

Thanks for the info re the hole. Not many people seem to know that it's supposed to be bigger- even my local dealer... (long story!) I realise it won't move inside I just thought the ideal method would be to have the "ears" the wishbones mount onto welded onto the stronger part? (I was amazed...

While you've the subframe out could you please check if the rear most wishbone mount hole on each side is a larger diameter than the other three holes? :) Are you going to weld the box section directly to the wishbone mounts somehow? Or is just having it inside that section going to improve it...

At least one person on Oz Renault Sport has had the same thing happen.

Has anyone further info? They make the RS192 system don't they? I was hoping one day to somehow get one shipped over to Australia :(

Re: Speakers for 182 It's worth the effort to fit 6.25" speakers in the front- a massive improvement even with the factory head unit.

:) Welcome to Oz Renaultsport. I'm guessing you found ClioF1's install for his battery?

I haven't got them but have read a few threads from people making similar comments. One guy on ClioTrophy forums removed them because they were so annoying. But then again.... two people in Australia have got them and reckon they don't make any noise??? Are they installed correctly and...

It might be the shock absorbers ageing? I know mine doesn't feel quite as tight as it did when I got it. Then there's other things like the top mounts at the front that seem to cause problems. I know some Aussies have also made mention of the steering rack mounts wearing.

The outcome to that was the rear most hole is supposedly larger from the factory- but no dimensions were given. It would be worthwhile checking that those bolts mentioned are tightened to the correct torque.

All he does is cut the outlet off and fit larger diameter tubing to it. Stock the inlet is ~2.5" and the outlet under 2" !?! :rolleyes: Have a look under your 182 and it will be clear what the issue is. The only hard bit about the mod is the oxy sensor is located right near the outlet that...

You should be able to find something that fits from another vehicle. 4x100 is the PCD- perhaps something from a older Honda Civic would fit? Did you ever get the Mazda 323 (late 80's to early 90's models?) Some of them came with space saver spares, but 14" rim size IIRC. It should fit on the...

On the Koni website there are two different part numbers listed for front shocks- one for 172's and another for 182's. So perhaps one of those does fit a 182 Cup, otherwise why two different fittments??? :S

Don't skimp on your fan! Buy a decent brand and it will flow more air and be more reliable long term. I've recently converted one of my vehicles from a viscous engine driven fan and used a Spal fan. They've got an excellent reputation and tend to flow more air when there is a pressure drop in...

Hi, try joining up at www.ozrenaultsport.com . There is info on there about how to repair a common problem with the climate control where a servo breaks- it just might be your problem. It's also an Aussie forum so you might get some tips on where to take your RSC for servicing in WA. :)

Yes, as above. If they're the factory tweeters they'll have a capacitor built-in in series with the tweeter coil (it's acts as the crossover to block low frequencies getting to the tweeter.)

Focal

The rear's are not hard to remove (even without jacking the vehicle up.) What you want to do is place them in a vice (not on the tube section though!) to hold one end solidly. Then you want to compress and extend them by hand through their full stroke multiple times. They should provide...

If it's climate control the same as the RSC's have then it isn't actually a resistor pack that's used. There's a semiconductor device inside the "black box" that breaks; on OzRS forums one guy managed to pull it apart, bought a replacement device from Farnell and fixed his fan cheaply.
