also is copper grease needed as they are steel studs and alloy nuts?

so standard is 105NM, mechanic told me 100NM and another mate who is in the business said 95NM

oh and should I use lock tight when installing the studs ?

Hey Guys I have upgraded the standard lug bolts to A1 Tech Studs: http://www.rallynuts.com/wheel-studs/ait-m12-x-150-to-m12-x-150-conversion-wheel-studs.html and also have Blox Alloy Nuts: http://www.bloxracing.com/bloxshop/index.php?route=product/product&path=34_71&product_id=275 Can any...

how do get the flange off the bearing as when i press the flange out the bearing came with it : (

ok so to clarify, drive shafts same for non cup and cup, the actual knuckle is different as in the bolt spacing for the strut, the bearing is different as per tony hunters post: Different o/s dia 71 84 but the part I actually need is the hub assembly which if pressed out can then be reused...

counted the notches for the drive shaft and they are the same.

but i wonder if i can press out both bolt hubs and interchange ?

Hey Guys I'm in Australia and struggled to find a 182 Cup Hub so I bought a normal 172 hub and was planning to press out the bearing on both and swap over as its only the lug bolt threads that were stuffed on my cup hub. Is the above correct are the bearing also a different size ?

i have this issue where works sometimes then sometimes does not. I have silver visions fitted and have noticed the brake light warning sometime semi illuminates, will check the rear end

is this pin sized hole on the 182 also?

Just got some Sparco 20mm hubcentric spacers for the front..will I have a issue if i only run front spacers?

Hey Guys I know this has been asked a million times but want some personal advice, I'm running standard Australian spec 15x7" Clio 172 wheels on my cup which were fine with the current 2.5 degree's of front camber when I had 195 / 50 / 15 tires but have since upgraded to 205 / 50 / 15 tires...

Nothing wrong with GAZ Suspension, ran my 182 with 20+ other clios and had the fastest lap time of the day with minimal mods and shot tyres, Also if the noise is just the spring its simply them settling in.

can also use a smaller tube in between the broken one and a bit of silicon if you wanna cheap easy simple fix. - if its the tube

hey guys I have a track day next week and want to know if there is any issue running different size R888's front to back, I have a pair of 195's and a pair of 205's. Due to the camber on the front I need to either run the 205's on the rear but I can run the 205's on the front with a small...

post a photo of this allen key mod as one day i will need to remove mine for ITBS

they just stick some grease in there and once done clean it up looks very dodge but mines been fine for over 15k now since it was done.. I was thinking F*ck im selling the car while he was working on it but I could never sell my beloved Clio (GAY RIGHT :P)

Ok so just an update, changing the oil with the JMS kit installed isnt really a issue, you simply remove the air filter and or throttle body, 5 mins work and a couple of bolts. There's enough room to get the old oil filter off and have some rags around it and a plastic bag, I did it and didnt...

Just went to swap my Carbon Lorraine pads from my old clio to my new car and guess what, one of the pads came apart exactly the same as pic 2! Can any one confirm if the new Carbon Lorraine Pads also suffer from this?

2ltr Catch Can ? thats huge!

what the F! stupid kit! so should come with a catch can!

also as the breather has a filter instead of running back to the manifold, what happens when on the track? do I need a catch can as I dont want to end up with an engine bay full of oil!

the 2 filters supplied with the kit - do they both need to be sprayed with dirt retention additive?

OK so finally all finished and have just taken it for a quick spin..... Its down on power :( I think maybe slight air leak? or just needs to be mapped. Didn't back fire tonight which is a good thing

Finally got the dam thing on and started last night: gave it a bit of a rev, havent driven it yet as I still need to mount the coil packs and find a t piece to run the charcoal canister line back into the intake. Did get it back fire through the intake twice though when reving it though...

Is removing the canister a good idea? where does the fuel tank then vent to? would it be a better solution to join the brake servo and carbon canister to a T piece and then run to the plenum?

Hey Guys I purchased a JMS RS2 Intake Manifold kit recently of the forum, it was brand new but I never realised there was a difference between the 172 and 182 kit / engine. Issues: 1 - The 172 has a hose that connects to the top of the crank case breather plate - the 182 has the same hose but...

bump - any other thoughts? if one was to run say a turbo and slicks on a track, would the standard gearbox be up to the challenge?

still think I would like a remote oil filter kit. Does any one know of the parts / size needed? I've been told it just has to be M20 Compatible, does that sound right?
