    Subframe Bolts

    Yeah, got used to the knack of removing just the nut now. Loads of room with a standard spanner, dont even need a ratchet on them

    Havn't actually driven it yet, but had it on axle stands and felt great into the gears, lovely and tight! Filled it with some MTL, might drop it after a few thousand miles and refill just incase theres anything as it starts bedding in! Looking forward to getting those first few road miles on it.

    Subframe Bolts

    I have the genuine ones coming but this is good to know for the future, cheers. Is it worth fitting the little clips again? I was thinking I may aswell as they'll be brand new! Might give them a coat of paint or buy some acf50 for them.

    Release bearing

    Is this normal for the clutch release bearing to be different? Genuine valeo clutch. Release bearing is also quite stiff on the new one.

    Subframe Bolts

    Threads are damaged on the fronts, not sure on the rears just yet! Are they just a standard flanged m12?

    Subframe Bolts

    People who have removed their subframes, what have you replaced the bolts with? Cages have spun so i'll be looking at either replacing all the captives/cages with genuine then buying some high tensile bolts or am I better just replacing the captives with nylocs?

    Catalytic converter prices

    To be fair you can just say this with anything. I think if people aren't willing to do the research on what they're selling then that's their own fault. Everyone loves a bargain, and if something comes up cheap then you buy it. I think cat recyclers are able to get the maximum profit from them...

    For any one in the future these are M10 X 55 10.9 half thread bolts. Just got a pair with nuts for £5 from my local fastener shop.

    Gearbox earth strap

    Removing my Gearbox and the old earth stap just disintegrated on removal. Does anyone have a link to a replacement? What sort of amp strap should I be looking towards? 170A seems more than sufficient as then I can just run a standard heatshrinked cable or am I best off with a flat braided one?

    Outer cv boot

    Get the stretchy ones from J&R but trim off one(?) of the ribs. I've been running one side for over a year and just fitted another on the other side.

    Thoughts on high mileage 182

    I mean it's an easy repair but theres so many clios out there it's not worth the aggro

    Thoughts on high mileage 182

    If the seller is genuine they wont mind taking some photos inside the rear quarters via the rear door cards.

    Paint Blemish/Poor respray? Help!

    I like the Menzerna stuff but i'm no expert! Could also try a light wet-sand but leave that until last IMHO.

    Paint Blemish/Poor respray? Help!

    Bad smart repair or similar? Try giving it a full decon and machine polish.

    1*2 cup vs non cup for cheap track day car + occasional run around

    You can always just get a pair of 182 cup hubs and wishbones from a breaker, then fit 60mm coilovers and you have the same thing.
