You need to measure the centres of the bolt holes mate, but I'd hazard a guess that they're 54mm non cup packed hubs if we are talking 182's as they are 60mm centres, but they're cup hubs if we are talking 172 cup. Make sense?

172 cup has longer steering arms than the others, and I think that the 182 has the same length steering arms. I've got 2 spare standard length steering arms if your interested? No play at all.

No pics or measurements mate?

Wheels spinning with the car in the air is normal. The noise your hearing is just the gears in the gearbox making noise because they're being turned by the gearbox input shaft. It's perfectly normal so I wouldn't worry about it.

Neither. Guess again. Lol

Glad to see that you've decided to stick with it and swap the engine out mate. :up:

Yeah the seal kit will do a pair of calipers and comes with the slider bits as well, but not the slider pins. To clean the pad carrier just use a file, but don't got ott and remove a lot of material.

Pop the pistons out and check them. Could be that they're starting to seize from corrosion build up. They need to be nice and clean to allow the piston to retract properly when the brakes are released. For the costs involved I'd just refurb them with a seal kit personally. Big Redd sell them...

More than likely finishing this all off: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/breaking-cover.772072/ Other than that nothing! Lol

Thanks. Only a small amount left to do now really, so maybe out on track later this year, or, more likely 2016.

I strongly doubt it would be that easy tbh mate and will require the gearbox to be swapped for a 6spd.

Lol! Just arrived mate.

Lol!

Subframe off? Or another way?

He may have to have more than 5 made mate to keep himself from being out of pocket.

The 182 breather plate is larger than the 172 item. They aren't interchangeable either.

Yeah I must be honest, I find the replies and his, what appears to be a total lack of support for what's essentially his mistake bewildering. It could've filled a gap in the market quite nicely, but anyone who sees this thread now will no doubt bid it b****cks and hold out for a 2nd hand rs2.

So what you saying then? Lol!

I've got loads of laps from a video camera and my gopro, but I cba to convert the video camera footage from tape to digital and the gopro footage just needs uploading to YouTube. The only footage that's uploaded currently is the one that the majority of people on here will have seen, which is...

Kind words sir. Thanks!

Agreed. Vw are kings of emissions/economy, so maybe they have a fancy system to measure it...........lol! As far as I'm aware though, egt sensors in each branch is the only way to do this. @Dan@SJM (aka terry tibbs - talk to me!) will be able to give more light on this as he's had way more...

As @Mr Burns has said, don't be put off from going to the place just from all the crash footage you see. It truly is an epic place to be for any petrol head. It also boasts one of the most exotic/expensive car parks your likely to see! Drive the circuit with respect and you will be fine. Your...

It's true! Lol!

Lol!

Yeah I noticed that too, very impressive. Safety cell clearly working well. :up:

I'm one of the many that doesn't wear a helmet. Nothing to brag or boast about, I just prefer the laps without one on. I know a lot of people who think I'm crackers because I don't wear one. That place is full of epic cars! I remember being in the cafe at adenau when a pre production veyron...

Believe it or not, mine has been done on a budget! It may not look like that, but it's true!

Just trim the underside skin of your bonnet mate. It's the plenum part of the inlet that will catch, so it's not a huge amount of material to remove. There's no real benefit to the coil on plug setup over the original 1*2 coil pack and leads. The only reason that I've used the cop is from a...

Yeah it needs to be moved over the exhaust manifold slightly, or you could just use some flexible reinforced hose for the filter.
