    V6 air box on 182 question

    I've trolled through threads on this already and know this fits, I've bought the air box but the question is.. 1: Do I need a smaller elbow pipe as the OEM one already on seems too long, if I attatch the v6 box to it the intake port will be further down and won't go through the battery gap (I'm...

    Not to everyone's taste but it's going to sit well with my eventual black and "subtle" yellow set up for the car (: Absolute pig to transfer due to the tiny and massive amounts of lettering. But got there. Not false advertising as I have K-tec coilovers on and wanting eventually solid...

    Looked great to me haha, your profile says Kent area yet I've seen this a few times on this road when I make my way home from the city centre? In between places?

    Updates (: Got the 197 style badge on today, now the "Clio" badge looks a mess compared to it so I'm going to have to find and buy a new one. Either way I like it, i loved the size of the old one but the fact you could buy it in halfords.. Had to go! Also had this for a while but...

    Thanks dude (: and we shall see! My brother told me about the stuff after he shown what it done on his van, his jet black trims I thought were standard black (they were grey) was redyed using that stuff ^ thing that got me was he applied it over a year ago and it's still going strong. We'll see...

    Car idle & exhaust leak.

    Yeah the emissions light came on, I'm guessing because of this. Should be getting this booked in soon at an exhaust fabricator to get the leak fixed properly. Other than this I'm hoping this is the cause of the problems for now!

    Car idle & exhaust leak.

    alright guys I'm not that familiar with mechanics so need some clarification. My 182 usually happily sits around 1.2K/1.5K revs at idle, today it's sank below 1000 revs.. Noticed the exhaust peeing out water/petrol from the exhaust tips and then now seen a leak from where the cat meets the rear...

    Do I chop up my Yozza?

    Yeah they exist, "oval" apparently. Right so now I've been persuaded/given the ok to chop up I also have pretty much the design ready. Pretty much that ^ but the size of the Racing Blue ones. I'll update this thread in the future when it's happened. (:

    Do I chop up my Yozza?

    Looks like cutting it up it is then! Let's see what the future holds for this art attack. I'm sure you can get rolled slash tips too though?

    Do I chop up my Yozza?

    Update; just found/robbed these pictures from Hammy77 if he's still on here, anyway this is pretty much the tips I'm after/had in mind

    Do I chop up my Yozza?

    Heres a video of both exhaust sounds, a lot of people are preferring the custom one but then again it's custom so it's one off, all the sounds would be different 53 plate is the custom If people agree with chopping it up then I'll go for it, not that opinions won't stop me, it's just more...

    Do I chop up my Yozza?

    As title really, bought the car with a Yozza on, whilst I like the sound of it and especially the idle grumble it gives off.. I'm just not sold on the tips! I have a bit of OCD/eye for detail, so the look of the tips are a thing for me and for the overall look of the rear. The idea is...

    Luke's Arctic Blue 182

    Looking good mate, I like the black and blue combo on these arctics, looks good! Satin black front grille, badges, fog light surrounds and bullets maybe? Done quite a few times before but that still don't stop the fact it goes well (:

    Couple of goodies arrived this morning, first off at the ass crack of dawn with this box; Got in contact with George at RTR on here about some brakes that werent "ebay specials" haha, guy saved me some money and all in all got some really decent genuine stuff. instant next day delivery too...

    another "I want this but is it worth it" thread. Matched inlets.

    Yeah I've read a lot that there's hardly any point looking to dump hundreds into these engines as the gains would be minimal (unless you fork out for ITBs/Turbo etc) like earlesey says, the cost for shot blasted primered and painted inlets alone could be worth the money.. Ish. Plus if it is...

    another "I want this but is it worth it" thread. Matched inlets.

    I thought of that too, saves hassle of taking your own inlets off to be sent off to sprayed leaving etc. it's just whether the whole process of matching and enlarged throttle body is legit and done properly.

    another "I want this but is it worth it" thread. Matched inlets.

    Haha true! Unfortunately Ive had an ebay addiction for a few years now. I've seen matched inlets on Ktec website too but it's only for the lower half? Surely you need both upper and lower to be ported and matched properly/full effect?

    another "I want this but is it worth it" thread. Matched inlets.

    Yet again I'm here asking probably stupid questions, last thread saved me some money and put it instead toward George @RTR for some proper brakes. So next stupid question but need help on are these matched inlets. Are they off anyone on here operating under a different name or a cowboy claiming...

    Awesome guys thanks for the heads up! I'll drop George a PM. Saved me a bunch of monies, thank you CS (;

    I want this brake kit.. is it worth it/right fitment?

    As title, are these the right fitment to a FF182? Also are they worth it? I'm wanting to buy them but want to make 100% sure they're right and worth it all before I do. Knowing my luck they won't fit or something similar -.- I've read also somewhere on here theyre Brembo discs but drilled and...

    Have you took the front side arch liners out? i asked this when i bought the car as they were missing, was told they scrub/catch the lower the car goes so off they came. This sound right/necessary? Noob questions as i bought the car on coilovers and have little knowledge otherwise haha!

    Joes BG182 Money Pit..

    Thanks man, in time ill make it more my own rather than just pure OEM. Even though "my" plans are just OEM mods done many a time before haha. Awesome i was hoping to keep this height and the two 205s on the turinis as spares haha (Continentals with near new tread too so defo want to keep!)

First up i ordered a windscreen wiper removal tool as due to past experience with my 1.4 thread i could NOT get them off, eventually used a crowbar and cracked my windscreen.. and still didnt get them off.
