    Stay out wide to right for Cascades lad and turn in where that little service road is.

    Coilovers for my 182

    I believe you want the rear spring rate a bit more than the fronts for better turn in/reduced understeer on a fwd car. Say 7kg front, 8kg rear.

    Coilovers for my 182

    Designed to work at a certain pressure with a set spring rate. A major change to the spring rate and it'll effect the dampening and possibly blow the seals of the shock.

    You would probably get away with it for 7/8kg springs, but after that it would be worthwhile getting them revalved.

    As standard i think it's something like 80/20 braking, so you are relying on your front brakes to do most of the work. When it's at 50/50 the effort is now shared, so if you had some decent pads also in the rear, then in theory you should be able to stop quicker with the slight downside of it...

    182 clutch pedal heavy

    They get heavier as they get older. Mine is on 92k on the original clutch and it's heavy. I'm having a new one fitted soon along with a new gearbox with a diff in. I'm expecting it to be lighter than it is now, but i won't worry if it's the same as i like the feel of it tbh.

    Don't remove the fuse. It makes the bias 50/50 iirc, you'll swap ends under high speed heavy braking.

    Are you daft? @bloke will have cars from £2k to £10k. Asking 'what is the price' is very vague. You wouldn't walk into a dealership and say 'i want a car, what is the price'.

    Definitely! The water would help cool it but also make the shorting worse.
