Yes. As above.

When you have children your priorities change. It’s hard enough bringing up kids without fannying about with old cars. Sad to hear but you can now throw your energy into other things.

Aye pinch bolt 👍

Oops my bad. I misread it as hub bolts bottom of dampers 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes to all the above. You don’t need any sealant. Hub nuts are 180NM. Does the replacement shaft already have the gaiter clamp fitted? If not, just be careful when putting it back on the new shaft as it’s easy to distort the rubber gaiter, which will mean a leak. If you drop me a message...

The plastic bush is where your gear selector shift rod sits. The circlip holds the bush in.

CL6 I found too bitey. They were either on or off. Better on bigger, heavier cars I reckon, not a 920kg 182. Pagid RS42 had a better feel than the CL6. More Linear but didn't have the same stopping power. Suffered brake fade with these. DS1.11 best all round pads i've used (DS2500 in the rear)...

If they’re out of a 182 I’ll buy them

Hmmm sounds like it’s something to do with the diagnostic and ODB port, not the sensor as that’s zeroing out, which is what you want. I‘m really not that technically minded, but the good news is it sounds like you have a healthy sensor as they’re nigh on impossible to find now. I’m wondering if...

It's in good hands and it will be interesting to see how they develop it. They were after mine but I'd already promised another member it.

All of the above really. I wouldn't overlook B14s either for general track days. I had a race-prepared 182 with 750mc SPAX controlled suspension. Set me back around £1,500 with solid top mounts. It was very unforgiving on the roads, but perfect for circuit racing or dedicated track days, as...

Shaftec supply refurbished genuine ones. I'd highly recommend one of those. More money than the J&R but they're essentially a refurbished genuine part. You want R396R (OSF - Drivers) replaces 8200352042 and R396L (NSF - Passenger) replaces 8200372167.

My first encounter with this phenomenon was when this bloke knocked at my door. "Hello John, you've got a roof tile missing John. Here I'll show you, John. Just up there John, see that one on the ridge John. Needs replacing John". And all this time I'm thinking how the feck does he know my...

Not much happening to the car at the moment other than a slight change of direction. My plan is to add some nice upgrades starting with a new exhaust system from Pure Motorsport. I've had these on both my last two 182s and love them. The design is a work of art and they sound great. For the...

s**t, me too 🤦🏻‍♂️

Booked on. Lovely.

Ideal circuit to have on your doorstep. Yeah, they’re not cheap now.

Yeah it was a very capable track car. Where are you based?

My mates old 182 just behind you there SB04XKG.

No I think he’d forgotten 😂 He messaged me to say he was at Donny racing in Hot Hatch series and did I want to come down. Then said he’d just had it mapped at EFi. I’m like, “I told you he’d already done it“ and he’s like “s**t” so you did 🤦🏻‍♂️ Same power but a bit more torque. He has plenty...

He did a brilliant job. Car was flipping amazing on track.

He did my 182 race car after I got it Group N timed. 2 weeks ago the lad who bought it off me, took it to him for mapping. He asked the lad who had mapped it as it was miles out 😂😂 Good mapper. Bad memory.

Awesome work and write up lads.

He’s on Facebook

Jon Lines Motor?

NO.4 in the schematic is the one you're after and that's closest to the filler cap.

Here's a schematic for you as I can't remember myself off the top of my head. I think it's the one nearest the filler cap. It's a while since i did mine. Part numbers are also included.

I sold my race car to a lad who managed to break it after a week bouncing off the kerbs there.

Nope. Just keep it maintained and enjoy it.
