Hey Guys I need to change my cam belt shortly and crave abit more power out of my 182. Currently it has the RS2 Manifold, Center Muffler removed and running on a RS Tunner Custom map. I want to increase power but of course dont want to spend a fortune doing it. Would changing to 197 cams...

happy to pay more if anyone can help me out in Australia. Would love some 197 cams to go with my RS2 Manifold

​happy ending..... I went to Fiji for 2 weeks and left the car with my mechanic. He took the sump off and resealed it, it still leaked.... he bit the bullet and removed the gear box and fly wheel. Noticed the rear main was the issue (which he changed with non gen item) he purchased genuine item...

Hey Guys After having my gearbox & Quaife rebuilt a O ring was missing between the diff shaft and drive shaft on the OS which caused the diff seal to leak as the drive shaft was hitting on the seal. I replaced the seal and installed the o ring but the stupid seal in still leaking. Pic 1...

so if I was to get a set of 197 cams for my RS2'd 182 I would struggle to find any one in Australia to correctly set up the timing?

maybe you could also move to melbourne and start a work shop!

all fixed, culprit was the missing o ring!

Update - It seems there is a little o ring that goes after the oil seal on the shaft coming out of the gearbox, the monkey that installed the gearbox left the o ring on the old gearbox which is what stops the drive shaft spline joint from moving to far forward and running into the gearbox seal I...

Cheers guys, ordered a new seal today from Renault, I think they got the conversion wrong as its $18 AU! but thats no drama, seal not just leaking in one day all the gear box oil I am pretty sure has drained out! My biggest concern is the shaft that joins the drive shaft and diff spline...

Of course not, wouldn't surprise me on the time quote as one of those 3 quoted 1.5+ days to simply change a gearbox.

no help guys?

Australian time Vs England time

Hi Guys I had my gear box rebuilt about 2 months ago, racked up heaps of driving and a track day with no issue at all but now my gear box is leaking really bad, Ive even stopped driving it until its fixed. Car also has a Quaife LSD. Please see pics below, basically the seal is leaking in...

will do cheers guys

the leak is clearly coming from where the gearbox meets the engine, he said when the sump was off he could see the fly wheel and it was nice and dry. it also did look like the seal along the rear of the sump (against firewall) was a tiny bit damp

Hey Guys Wondering if anyone has any ideas why my local mechanic has made my oil leak worse after changing the sump gasket. History - 12 months ago car had hair line crack in sump. I changed sumps and re used sump gasket, leaked a lil bit for the last 12 months Recently - Had Rear Main...

See Screen shot of RS Tuner log: strange thing is I cant seem to find any actual physical faults, cruise control very rarely works but I figured that was down to the after market rear brake globes as posted many times on here. ABS light came on once during last track day, turned car off and...

Epic Photo or just Epic Trophy

mine were shot on my my 182 Cup, luckily the mechanic setting up my camber and tracking noticed it, couldnt get any sense out of Renault Australia as they tell me with my VIN number the car could have any of 3 different racks and they may or may not be different bushes but different part...

Hey Guys Wondering if anyone can help me determine if there is something wrong with my clio, the back of the car is always heavily covered in black smoke marks(looks like Turbo Cards rear end) Doesnt seem oily I hoped it is simply fuel. Had a couple of mechanics look at it but they got no...

Hey Guys Ran 2 sessions yesterday with no problems, couple of laps into my 3rd session the ABS light came on and I lost ABS. Kind of enjoyed it to be honest and had a couple of slight lock ups but nothing major, I ended up while driving simply turning the car off and on after a couple of laps...

so I have changed from the alloy nuts to generic looking steel nuts, should these also be torqued to 100NM?

FML

just to clarify I got a bit excited on the weekend and installed the studs, i added 2 locked nuts together and then torqued the studs to 100NM onto the hubs with some lock tight. seems instructions for other studs are only 20 NM. Have I made a major mess here?
