182 Mods you got??

[Liam@redmonkey]

So what mods do you have for your 182 i want

1.better brakes???
2.some sort of tuning what one (the GDI tuning package like the £1700?)
3. Apex springs??)

What have you done and what can you advise me to do.

thanks guys

 

[Peperami]

Start off with exhaust and itg panel filter (if you havnt already) and then go for coilovers, then brakes (uprated front discs and pads should do on a clio)and after thats sorted, look at tuning packages mate

 

[Liam@redmonkey]

blueflame already got and itg already got, should i go for a decat??? tuning packages which one??

 

[Liam@redmonkey]

guys list your mods and what you think of them aswell

 

[Peperami]

Power is nothing without control hence springs/ coilovers and brakes first mate.

 

[Dooby]

Smt 6 ecu
Hillpower induction
custom de-cated system inc manifold
angelworks inlet manifold
tarox 40 grove disc's
mintex extreme pads

Iv'e just put my system back in the car and would say the performance has gone back to about standard with the extra weight (70 ish kg)

 

[peter182]

dooby182 sounds nice

 

[Thomss]

I have:
Full SS, with decat.
ITG panel filter
RStuning remap.
light smoke tints,

next, coilovers, better breaks, Angleworks Mani. then a tweeq on the remap.
would also like light weight seats and a cool sterring wheel

 

[tameracingdriver]

Just a blueflame exhaust and green stuff pads and metal hoses at the moment.

A simota twin charger induction kit will find its way on in the next week or two.

Perhaps a remap sometime in the nearish future too to take advantage of the breathing mods.

After that, I'll be looking to replace the brake discs with brembo carbon discs, but only when the current discs are shagged. Also, when the suspension is shagged i'll look into coilovers.

I might consider some lightweight alloys at some point, but only if i can get ones i like the look of for little money, and NOT turinis (everyone has those now )

Edit:

I see you asked what we thought of them.

For me the blueflame exhaust subjectively seems to make the car seem more eager. Clearly louder. Sounds better than standard with the windows shut. With them open, a bit raspy especially from 3.5 - 5K rpm.

The green stuff pads and metal hoses - at first the green stuff (the new ones) didnt impress, but they have improved lots now and seem to be an improvement on OEM for the same price. The hoses have hugely improved brake feel and responsiveness. Definitely recommended.

Trophy Wheels - fantastic esp on track, better brake cooling

Magnex Cat Back - been a total pain in the arse, heavy system, but sounds and looks nice now I have got it fitted correctly finally

Apex spring - low cost lowering option look goo but handling aint too goo esp on track

Carbon Fiber Splitter - Love it, looks mint

Samco hosing - looks the part and car feels more responsive, not sure if its aything to do with these though lol

Strut brace - more for looks, doesn't really imrove handling

Viper wit cold air feed in grill - sounds nice and performes well on cold days but when it hots it crap, too much warm air

Pics .. sorry I now I am an ASW

[Mark J]

Alloy Tax Disc.

 

[Pep]

i had an engine transplant to the 1.2 16v unit, pulls really well through all the gears upto a steady 135mph ish, but 0-60 is slightly higher.

the better sides are it gives about 1 or 2 mpg more over the old engine, and the tyres seems to last a few more miles, thats about all,

if im honest i wouldnt do the swap again, its got the show and the go, but for some reason people laugh...

 

[MarkM]

custom exhaust - a much needed increase in sound
cobra suzuka - must have mod, drops the driving position considerably
momo wheel 320mm - must have mod, gets rid of the bus wheel
leda coilovers - best mod I have made
cams, cable throttle, maxogen. OMEX - v expensive and would be hard to justify price vs. gains. A bit more powerful topend but much more torquey and alot better throttle response makes it hard work on the daily commute but rapid when you go out for a blast.
battery relocation - good idea as it allows relocation of air filter and if you do it yourself then quite cheap
race battery - half the weight of the standard one with better cranking worth 80£

I would recommend handling mods and weight loss but only tune the engine if you have money to burn.

I was going to throttle body it next but would rather save a bit extra and buy a westfield. If I could turn back the clock I wouldnt have had the engine work done and would have a Westfield sat on my drive now.

When you think how much modding it has cost me over the last couple of years it is quite shocking really, around 7k..............
