Extreme model (basically extremely povo spec)😅 i dont mind the barcodes, the dash trim also had it but was scratched to fcuk sadly.
Yep gets pretty uncomfortable driving the orange one. Parked up now and blue one is in use with ac.
Tempted, almost done it a few years back
🤣 i fancy dropping...
Updates
Had a spare half day so done a few easy bits.
Orange dci has been used quite a bit as needed more than 2 seats. Was due an oil change as done 5k/18month.
Quick and easy oil extraction, fresh Valvoline 5/40 and purflux filter.
Stereo upgrade. Cheap 2nd hand alpine 204dab to replace...
Continuous beep when locked is due to the alarm thinking a door or something is open. Faulty bonnet switch is common, or if door open light is on all the time its a fault on door or boot switch.
Thanks all, appreciate the support. Knew it would get him one day but was not prepared for it to be last week.
I have refitted the ds1.11 pads to the front as it needs as much braking power as possible. Forgot how bad the brake dust is off them!
Also reason behind buying the...
Bit of a sad one but only just had chance to use this as my dad was in hospital for 6 days. I got an early call on the Sunday morning, the day after mapping to get down the hospital asap. So this was parked as bedside all week and he passed peacefully in the end after a 5 year battle from...
Generally inner tierods do not fail unless hanging.
However, best off replacing as its got play. Do both sides - inners and outers, it will tighten the steering up a fair bit.
Looks great.
Ive bled calipers using a mityvac and large syringe before but never a pump trigger. Hook up the eezibleed, they work great and easy 1 person bleed.
Fitting is easy enough. Pull headlliner down a bit to access aerial, cable runs down rear pillar. You wont be able to pull through cables, you will need trims off to route.
I have one on my clio, it did work ok, windscreen one is better. However that is now s**t as dab reception is piss poor near me
Prob get the same out of an amplified dab splitter wired to oem aerial.
You sure the cams are correct? Little D to the bottom on each? One looks off but hard to tell by the pic.
Knock something like this up to get crank pulley off.
Cheers all. Its so much better than the old hybrid setup.
Agreed mate a bar of boost is easy enough and well useable. I might add a steering wheel switch as push to pass to increase boost to 75% of high boost table if i need it to pass somebody.
Mapping updates.
Cruise control works great and made the drive easy.
Arrived at Efi Parts - and as soon as i said g25 660 turbo, Chris said we are making some power today and he was not wrong.
Chris done all the base calibration stuff then moved onto power tuning. Initial power runs on...
Generally most detailing products last forever, if its a polish it just needs shaking to remix.
I had a spray on sealant go off bizarelly after a few years though so never say never. Use it, bin if it applies funny etc
Its brutal to get off on a cold day, defo panel at a time. Wasnt too bad on Sunday as warm ish, did cheat by using the da with finishing pad to take it off then light buff with a cloth.
Arms were hanging after 2 runs round with the DA😅
Looks great. Srp is still a solid product, how did you apply? It works great with da and finishing pad.
I almost used c2v3 to seal too but decided on a wax for a change.
The cruise buttons work by resistance so you would need to add required resistors if not present already. On 182 id imagine the rest of the wiring will already be fitted, add cruise squib, cruise and clutch switch and your away.
