Update.

Purchased some new rear pads as current ones were due to be changed. Got these from G172 of here, couldn't recommend buying brakes from him enough! Great price and arrived in no time

picked them up today - went for OEM BREMBO's

Looks lovely mate, what disk's are you running?

 

[Mr Plums]

One of my favourite clios on here mate, ive ordered the same wheels as you but in crystal titanium and in 16s, but after seeing yours im not sure if im going to change the order to matt graphite, is that what yours are?

I dont know what to do grrrrrrrr!

 

[Šįk]

Cheers mate tbh I don't think you could go wrong with either.. But I reckon the graphite would be a safer bet :S ? It's a tough one lol.

chippiegt, I'm not sure what the disks are as they were already on the car when I bought it.

Update.

Fitted the brakes no problem so all is good. But think the rear bearings are on there way out!

This easter weekend i went for a drive with Jamie & his 400bhp 135i, drove over to Alston - Hexham which was all good fun

Piers, your car is awesome mate!

What do you have planned for it now?

 

[Šįk]

Thanks Tommo.

Not alot tbh, mainly interior changes if anything. Still debating a couple small exterior changes but time will tell ..keeping my cards close to my chest lol.

 

[rollerdan]

Epic car mate ! You still got the 25 mm spacers on? Im thinking about the same size ones but not too sure my wheels are et38 only slightly lowered on coilovers there 2118 wheels also? What you recommend mate

 

[Kimitech]

Piers - again great pics. The 135i is actually 400bhp beast? Where did he mine it from?
rollerdan - mate, my advice is not to exceed ET20, which in your case mean max. 18mm spacers. Also in this case it´ll be a pretty tight in the rear arches.

Cheers for the advice mate i only want to space the front for now ? Would you think 20 mm would be fine?

 

[Šįk]

Doh, no I forgot to mention lol. I sold the 25mm spacers and moved the 15mm spacers up front from the rear as I found it to cause to much rubbing and become impacticle on roads like hartside etc - which I do a lot.

15mm spacers up front on et38 wheels are perfect for me. (Pictured above in last update)

Yea 135i was dyno'd @ 396bhp from just a JB4 map.

Update.

just to say its still alive, gave it a good clean today with a new coat of protection and sealed windows. It has 90k on the clock now too!

[Tunst]

Its a shed in the flesh iirc

 

[Smiffyboy1990]

Who ever get's this 182 is getting a awesome car i followed your 172 and LY 182 Progress thread's and they where such an inspiration. I can't wait to see a 147 GTA one!

 

[Mike_SE]

Whats the ride like with those coilovers compared to stock? And I am guessing that exhaust is going to be at the louder end of the scale?!

 

[Šįk]

Thanks for the positive comments guys x

Coilover ride, their quite soft compared to the H&R's that i used to own. which suit the British roads better. And yes the Yozza is one of the louder exhaust's available but the note is quite unique.. Doesn't sound like every other 2L exhaust. A very highly rated and sort after system.

cheers.
