My Arctic Blue

[Joe R26]

Today the weather was so nice, I thought I'd take the oppertunity to give the Clio a good clean. Then head out to take some pics.

I washed it with AG shampoo (2 bucket method), Removed as many tar spots as I could find with AG Intensive tar remover, one coat of AG SRP followed by AG EGP, cleaned wheels with some halfords non acidic wheel cleaner, sealed them with AG wheel sealer, dressed the tires with Meguiars tyre gel, cleaned glass with NXT glass cleaner and polished the Yozza with some NXT metal polish.

Its not come up bad, could do with claying really. Anyway for the pics...

Thats lush matey. What exhaust is it ?

Sam!

 

[Joe R26]

Thanks mate, Its a Yozza exhaust

 

[Dan]

Arctic is the best colour you can get in the 182

what zaust u got on that??

 

[Dan]

^^ must have posted at the same time

U likin the yozza experience??

 

[Joe R26]

Yeah I love my Yozza! haha. It sounds awesome. You got one?.

 

[Dan]

Ye that's good, u got a decat as well??

Nope but I shall be puttin one on order in about a month or so can't wait tbh lol

 

[Dan]

People also say the miltek looks better out the back but I think the yozza looks a lot better!

 

[Joe R26]

No decat yet lol. I'm considering it though!. You wont regret getting a Yozza!.

 

[treemanx]

Very nice, lol at two people asking what exhaust, theirs writing as well as pictures

 

[Dan]

I hope not I sorta have my heart set on the yozza now lol
Don't suppose u get the odd pop/bang with ur cat still in place do u??

 

[Dan]

Very nice, lol at two people asking what exhaust, theirs writing as well as pictures

didnt spot the polishing yozza bit till u put that lol

 

[Joe R26]

Not really, I've had it about a month or two now I suppose and I've only had one mega bang (during a good spirited sesson lol), it did sound good though.

 

[Dan]

Hmm that's not bad then with cat still in hopefully a decat would make it even fruitier

Also is that an OEM cup splitter??

 

[Joe R26]

No mate its the K-tec carbon fibre splitter

 

[Dan]

Niceee carbon is for heroes

It does look rele good in the sun and I think the splitter goes rele well Would using clay make much of a diff?

 

[Joe R26]

Not unless you feel the paint . There was so much tar and crap on the paintwork, I removed as much as I could find but the only way I think, is to clay the whole lot. But not untill next time.

My car had 1 previous woman owner so I expect its never been detailed properly. I also wanna get a few car park dents out of it, you can't notice them in the pics though. Its coming together though.

Mods so far:

Silvervisions
K-tec panel filter
K-tec CF splitter
Yozza

Not sure what next... maybe decat and remap.

 

[Dan]

Ahh right I do like to stroke my car once in a while so maybe worth it lol

Decat is menna make the yozza pretty insane but a good insane lol

Also a remap is pretty pointless without other engine mods IMO I would get a whiteline ARB instead or some sportline springs as they will make more of a diff (more tripodism)

 

[Liquid yellow 182]

Yozza is for heroes! Love mine and best mod to do! All my mates who are in to cars have all been impressed with its quality and always puts a smile on my face when giving some O and cars looking good to!

 

[Joe R26]

I want a decat & the pop & bang remap, but don't know if I could put up with the noise lol. Flames :evil:

 

[Dan]

Ye that's whats goin through my head love flames and bangs but can I live with it every time I change gear lol they could do with bringing out a switch so u can change between 2 maps then there would be no "can I live with it" problem if u can turn it off

 

[Joe R26]

I don't think it pops unless your over 4.5k on the overrun or somthing like that. So it doesn't do it all the time. I'm just gonna get a decat first and see how I get on with that.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

That is stunning, never noticed how prominent te carbon splitter looks - love arctic

 

[Dan29]

Car looking good mate.

 

[Joe R26]

That is stunning, never noticed how prominent te carbon splitter looks - love arctic

Thanks, gotta love CF.

 

[gti6steve]

The best colour with out a doubt

 

[Wick]

No decat yet lol. I'm considering it though!. You wont regret getting a Yozza!.

Meant to ask you this in Thurrock the other day mate. Decat or not?! Thought it was LOUD!! Yozza sound can only be described as epic but day to day I don't know if I could hack it.

*Heads back to youtube for more exhaust vids and confuse myself further.

 

[Joe R26]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX4B673omgU Thats the sound I like to hear!. Little vid of mine.

You can handle it! It sounded really loud at first to me, I'm getting used to it now.

 

[Scott™]

Very nice indeed mate

 

[Wick]

Guessed that was you when I first saw it! Dartford Tunnel en route to meet by any chance?

 

[Joe R26]

Guessed the was you when I first saw it! Dartford Tunnel en route to meet by any chance?

Good guess but no, that was the night before Nice little tunnel near Tunbridge Wells, heading towards the A27 . I wish I could of recorded the Dartford one, it was epic. I was hoping someone in my convoy would film it. lol!
