Happy Days.......

[Maz]

Just purchased my new mods today with some expert advice

Just don't think I can wait the week it is going to take for them to be ready for collection, lol

Decided (with help, ) on Viper Induction Kit & Koni Suspension :approve:

 

[Aust1n]

Good purchases too

 

[Maz]

Thanks, like I said I had lots of expert advice off someone who knows what there talking about

You only get what you pay for imo

 

[Scott]

[Maz]

I will get pics up as soon as it is done, don't worry

 

[sh33n]

Where did you get them from?

Prices?

 

[Maz]

Total cost £830 but I ermmmmm don't think I can say where from because a very very very nice person on here got me an excellent discount

You can get the suspension from http://www.performancedriven.co.uk/shop.product.asp?CatID=46 and the induction kit from http://froogle.google.co.uk/froogle?q=clio+viper+induction+kit&hl=en&lr=&sa=N&tab=ff&oi=froogler hope this helps

 

[Maz]

afterthought lol maybe I should have said where from and not price lol

I hope so lol cause thats what I have ordered

I will let you know what its like no probs once fitted :approve:

 

[Fred@BTM]

the only suspension i know of for the 182 is YSBilstein or Leda

 

[Maz]

Maybe thats why it was cheep, lol

Wont fit the car

 

[MATT BLACK]

the stub axle on a 182 is the same as a 172 and 172 cup - the shockers and springs on 172 and a 182 are interchangable ( ive tried ) so the kit ive ordered is for a 172 - there exactly the same

part number 8200171673 - oval plate CB22 ( 182 ) CB1N ( 172 )

 

[MATT BLACK]

To fit FK coilovers to a 182 you simply bore the bottom frt shocker bolt holes out by 1mm and the fit cylindrical spacers to the bolts - ive had to do the same with my Clio TT - the difference in handling is outrageous !!!!

interesting... How easy would it be to mod a set of H&R's ?

same idea, i had a lengthy chat with me j3ned eariler about it (just after i spoke to you Si)

all you have to be carefull with is the camber angle

 

[Maz]

Lol @ be careful with the camber angle.... that sounds painful

 

[Nafoff]

sounds good mate...wish i had that much to play with on mods.....

 

[Maz]

Cheers its the only two things I want to mod on my car so I didn't mind paying out for it, lol

Oh and I got a belter bargain

is he mad????

 

[Maz]

^^ Must be lol

Each to their own.........

 

[Fred@BTM]

I've just finished fitting GAZ coilovers to makavelli's 182

the reputation they have is very unjustified IMO

they're very good, plus the ride height you can set is spot on (and that's rare for me to say so)


if you're on a budget and looking for coilovers for your 182, then i would defo recommend the GAZ setup!!!

 

[Turkish]

if only you had said that when i was selling them for 375 not 300, lol

 

[Maz]

^^ lol

 

[Sirius]

In germany they now sell adjustable H&R gaz coilovers for the 182 with cup pack.
Front axle: 30-70mm
Rear axle: 20-50mm
price: 1000€

[patty]

[Maz]

Should hopefully get them fitted this week and get some pics up

 

[caymanr26]

quite jealous Maz - I would have gone for them or H&R if I had the money - let us know what you think of them.

There Koni Sport mate not H&R

 

[Turkish]

He didnt say they were H&R, lol

 

[Rob669]

A really basic question: gaz coilovers seems to be a shock absorber and spring, so if you fit them in place of the standard shocks what do you do with the original springs?
