    Inlet Plenum Removal

    Hi Guys I am in the process of removing the upper inlet manifold/plenum from my 182 to paint it. A couple of the pipes at the back by the throttle body are quite difficult to remove and I do not want to break them. They are pictured below: The pipe to the left moves freely around with a...

    Clio sport replica - Red

    Loved that replica and gutted for you having put so much effort into the car for it to have been undone by someone like that. I guess there will be a new project starting with the DCI.

    What road legal track tyres 15"

    I use Toyo R1R's on the track and found them great in the wet and good in the dry and would recommend. Interesting to read above that they are no longer available in the U.K.

    stud conversion?

    Not used them but looking at kits myself as intending a set for my 182 and did see these. Sure they are fine but might be worth checking out JJC race and rally as they are a bit cheaper, free postage and I have always had great service.

    Mintex 1144s any good?

    I've got m1144 on my 182 with Brembo HC discs and ATE super blue fluid. Iv done approximately 8000 road miles, a trip to the ring and 5 track days on them and found breaking to be excellent on the road, good on track for a few laps then the heat seems to tail off performance but still work...

    What tyres do you run on track?

    Toyo r1r on track for me, found them good in wet and dry and much cheaper than r888. Also use t1r on road a couple of track days and found them to be pretty good also. First track day - as said before just get out there and have a go, you will have enough grip for some fast laps with decent road...

    Just purchased first clio 182

    They are good on the track straight out the box. Just cover the basics, good brake pads, discs and tyres and change all fluids and make sure the car is in good order all over. Spend the rest of your money on track time and enjoy, so much fun on track!

    Oil and Stop Warning Lights Started Coming On Today

    Hi Update. Whilst no replies I think if I have got it sorted. I put a pressure gauge on it and had good readings of over 15psi on tick over and over 45psi at 3k so all good there. The oil pressure sensor was a bit oily and past it's best so I suspect it is only that. I'll get it changed and...

    Oil and Stop Warning Lights Started Coming On Today

    Hi Guys A problem has started to occur on my 05 182. Any help appreciated. I have a 7 mile drive to the train station each morning and pretty much as I arrived today the oil warning and stop lights came on. This was a surprise as the normal oil level approval flashed on the dash as I set...

    Advice please on this alloy !!!!!

    Doesn't look to bad. How did it drive before you took it off? if drove ok and wasn't noticed it will probably be fine for normal road use.

    Tyre Choice

    Used the r1rs today at a wet donington where they performed really well. Managed to hold on to a Quattro tt and an evo 7 through the bends. They did still start to slide at times but that was probably more my driving. The tyres will probably do better once worn a little. If dry I think the...

    Tyre Choice

    Just ordered a set of r1r for my 15" track wheels. Will be on the car tomorrow and on track Sunday. I'll let you know how they do but I expect good things from them.

    What to do?

    Get it mended. Parts are cheap as chips and there are always cars breaking. probably no more hassle then selling yours and finding a suitable replacement.

    Speedline 2118 question

    I went to speedline about 5 weeks ago, as they are only a few miles from me. I was considering a set of 2118s.They were very helpful and had them in stock in silver, anthracite, and white. They recommended the anthracite which came in et43. I preferred the idea of et38 but this was only...

    Hi Guys I bought a 182 as a toy to use daily and to do my first trip to the nurburgring and occasional track days. I looked for a 172/182 for a month or so and seemed to spend every spare minute searching the net for the right car. I ended up viewing about 5 cars before I bought this one. I...

    Hi guys I bought my first Clio last month, a 05 182 with both cup packs. After using the forums to search for information I thought it was about time to introduce myself. Really impressed with the car having put a load of ground work and travel time finding the right one. Whilst looking I...
