Sounds like the best idea.

Sounds like a lot of hassle, would it be worth changing to rear cup shocks but leaving the fronts?

Cool, I look forward to it pulling better dan, still on for tomorrow? Thanks for all the info chaps, can see it staying standard apart from possibly replacing the rear box as it rots out more.

Does it come in that early, just assumed the advance at just after 5k is the vvc swapping over but before that was disengaged, you learn something new every day!!! It's already running ps3's so has got decent tyres on there, no other suspension upgrades hence my other thread about cup suspension...

I don't like spending big money anymore!!! What's the best bang for buck mod dan? Make sure engine is running a1 first but after that, guess after a turbo it feels harsh running it up to 5k just to hit vvc so looking for some more lower down torque if that makes sense. Again if its big money I...

Cheers :cool:What is a decent decat make, take it the engine management light has to be mapped out? Will need a non oe backbox for sure if I go decat.

Have a 182 ff with 83k, non cup suspension, it has had non oe shocks put on the rear, front are oe, rear are fairly new. I was just wondering how much I would benefit from putting cup shocks/springs on, is it a straight bolt on mod or is there work to make them fit, thanks in advance:cool:

Hello everyone, was thinking about what upgrades I could do to a 2005 ff 182, was thinking sports cat, stainless rs tuner? Thanks in advance!!!

Anyone on here own the think its a ph2 clio v6 on here, when I pick up my boy from nursery I see it parked up opposite, has owned it a good few years I think? Very tasty car!!!

Old scotty gets around, lol, no he has been the main mechanic on my scoobs over the years so got to know him pretty well, I am looking forward to seeing this cup he has got his hands on.

Cheers chip, front o2 ordered, just need dan to get some time to time her up, fit sensor & put the new engine mount on, hopefully it will come on cam a little earlier & get some more mpg, still struggling to get 30/31mpg...miles better than the scooby, got to say it didnt like the sainsburys...

Just a update, been to see dan, issues were top engine mount threaded, timing sounds like it is possibly out, cel light went off after a few days but it was o2 sensor. Going to get dan & hopefully next post will say how happy I am & car is running well!!! Alao got to say dan was really helpful...

I just did a mini diagnostics test, the is a t code so that is an injector problem? Yes cambelt was ok as has a subaru mechanic do cash in hand work for me, the amount of upkeep was crazy but was running 321/303 in the end. I am not even getting good mpg at the moment, 38 showing when I bought...

Not sure, reading a few threads looks like spark plug, coil, front lambda etc etc, suppose I need the code read, chip if I hadnt had it looked at by then that would be awesome... I thought after the joys of subarus for 5 years getting a little runaround would be easier...

No its all standard emma, I did double check with the guy, it even still has the standard peashooters...

Hello Luke, I was told the previous owner always ran some kind of super but did mix brands, have you had your code read or light reset? I do a 40 mile daily commute so its a bit of a worry!!!

Hello all. Drove the 182 about 70 miles, filled up on momentum yesterday, 5 minutes after driving the car in the bottom right hand of the dash got a amber warning exhaust or cel light constantly on, anyone with a code reader in weston or nearby that can help:S? Thanks in advance.

What's the latest a car can go on? Interested in this. 1. Dan, 2. Emma. (RR) 3. Dave (wilyoldave) (RR) 4. Marc1330 (RR) 5. Smiler_ (RR) 6. Aaron (RR) 7. Nyall (RR) 8. Ranger (RR) 9. Chip (RR) 10. ................. Space free 11. The Fatty (RR) 12...

Thanks for all the replys, a very warm welcome:cool:, mini meet also sounds good so will be in touch. Dan will pm you.

Hello chip, that's great info, can't make tonight though appreciate the invite, I am in Weston super mare but work near burnham. i will try to make the next meet and drop a on over to dan. Cheers buddy!!!

Hello all. Finally got a 2005 titanium 182, close to me & good price hopefully, belts have been done, only a full fat version, link is here: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifie...v-2005/1062950 One thumb grip has totally come off, exhaust was a advisisory for being rotten, standard item...

No thats brilliant, not a fan of the tinted windows and prefer the inferno colour but seems to have all the right servicing done to it, appreciate your info:cool: I definately want one with the belts done within the last year to 18 months.

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/renault/renaultsport-clio/renault-clio-x65-renaultsport-182-16v-2005/1062950 What about this one?

Ouch:S

Paste the Item number 261165533176 into ebay, the listing has finished, shows up on my mobile but the link will not work on the laptop for some reason.

Its got xenons, guess a owner fitted them, I would prefer a ff but can only really travel 50 mile radius really, there is also a titanium silver with belts done not too far away so might compare the 2, do like the inferno but think lack of toys might drive me mad.

Do you get anything on a cup, lol, love the colour but some creature comforts would be nice, its only in bristol so might pop up in the week. I have to say I do like the embossed seats etc on a full fat.

Spotted a nice inferno, close to me, cloth cup interior but anthracite alloys, no front splitter so safe to say its a cup? Also seems to not say renault motosport on the steering at the bottom its just black, changed due to thumbgrips melting maybe?

Very nice 172, think I am going to hold out for a 182, glwts!!!

Belts are due in july so looking for one with the belts done, there seem to be a few about that have been for that budget. Can someone tell me what the different models are & whats included, full fat, both cup packs, I know one is suspension/alloys, one is splitter rear spoiler? Is that right...
