    182's with or without cup packs??

    You won't notice any real different a none CUp will be worth ay £300 less depend on who buys it. In some ways I'd prefere a none Cuped one as the owner probably wanted a car for the spec rarther than the engine so probably hasn't hammered it as much. Also 172 suspension fits then the 182 with...

    IMO if you don't want to spend a decinet amount of money I wouldn't bother with just springs just run some more camber and if you realy want some spacers on the front.

    guarantee ??

    Renault have to prove that the modification is responsible for the claim to refuse to pay out. I don't see how a filter can make any impact though.

    Lowering my Car

    Best get new dampers and springs at the same time. If you lower the car on any springs damper life will be reduced by how muc noone has realy proved there wear qucikly and people end up going to coilovers or changing the dampers usually after a while. If you cannot afford new dampers as well I...

    Engine Transplant

    Any engine (excpet the Mk2 CLio) is an easy swop Williams or 1.8 (8 or 16V) is much the same. Its a fair bit of work best get a whole doner car realy and swop it all.

    Service Light On

    The brake sensor problem is only on the 182's and its noticed very quickly not this long after being built. The SERV light means somethings wrong and it should go back to the dealer but usually another light comes on as this will give you an idea whats up. Check the oil level thats about the...

    Steering issues

    To check for a broken drive shafts check the rubber gaiters see if any grease has leaked out. the wheel being wonky you need to get the tracking done any good garage will lock the wheel straight ahead when they set it up. Thats will cost you about £30.

    182 Rear axle on my 1.4 - edde?

    Nope disconnecting the brake sensors. to the ABS computers. Don't try this I still need to do some investigation to see if it would work. There not cheap though rear axles with all the bits £200 would be a complete bargin expect more like £500.

    182 Rear axle on my 1.4 - edde?

    Yep thats the basic idea. I'll have a look tomorrow what needs to be done. Whilsts the ABS shouldn't be an issue as the sensors are the same I think I have a safe way of switiching off the ABS.

    What suspension??

    You need someone who understand how dampers work to explain but Gaz valving in the dampers are very poor.

    1.8 16v

    Rust is the biggest problem but you already know that. Electrics can be problems. Whats about a Wiloiams they cna be bought for not much more these days insurance is the only negative IMO over the valver.

    FCS Tracktime

    There no proper track setup the only proper one is what the race cars use and thats to hard for road use. Stock setups fine for track use just it rolls a bit. I don't mind taking passengers but I'm sure others with quicker cars will take you out.

    mk2 172 wiper baldes?

    Other sized wipers do fit get the bigger ones as whiclt they don't touch the whole windscreen they do cover more of it. I think mine are both 21 inches and size matter.

    You can go very low about 90~120mm or so depends the exact tyre size you use. However thats a real 90mm most 60mm kits lower your 60 at the back and 40 or so at the front.
