    Project Lexus!

    So here goes, I've never done a thread for one of my daily cars before because (a) they've been factory original so not much to say anyway and (b) all my time and effort has gone into my Clio thread! However, that said.......... I've just bought a new daily, a 2005 Lexus IS 200 that I actually...

    BMS Shifter

    Seen a few people with the BMS shifter which I think will be a better option for me over the more 'becauseracecar' PMS, but just wondered does this still use the standard Renault housing? Does it use Scenic bits? I don't really know anything about them! Also, where can I buy one!? Struggling...

    Updated photos of the Arctic!

    The sun was shining today and the roads were nice and clear so thought i'd get the car out for a blast and got some new photos while out as well..... not all of the ones I took came out as good as i'd hoped due to the sun and shadows being cast etc but here's the best of the bunch! :up: For...

    KTEC solid top mounts and strut brace?

    Just after a quick answer if possible, does anyone know if the Ktec solid top mounts will be ok to fit with an OMP strut brace already fitted? Apparently there's room but looks tight! Also, anyone who has them, are they really hard for daily road use? My standard ones are knackered and...

    Coast road Clio fun!

    Myself, @T9 0LLE and @Harley-xi went out this morning for a run up the coastline, stopping in Cromer for a cheeky tea/coffee and something to eat so would have been rude not to get some photos........ beautiful day weather wise, maybe summer isn't over just yet? Two 182's and one crazy 172...

    Heater stuck on full!

    Just taken my 182 to Renault for the MOT and was totally fine when I drove it there.......... got in it to drive home, the heater is stuck on full!? No matter what I do or press its stuck on so was like an oven driving back! Not saying it's anything they've done as was only an MOT, i'm more...

    182 won't rev past 5k?

    Has anyone had this on their 182 before? My Clio has decided to do this today, no lights on dash, seems to run perfectly when running around town and normal cruise speed/low revs but as soon as you come off a roundabout and accelerate, won't go past 5k in any gear and if you hold the...

    Clio 182 car tax when new in 2005?

    Random one this, but does anyone know what 12 months road tax would have cost for the 182 back in 2005? Just had the reminder through and as I look at the prices almost open mouthed as yet again it's gone up (same price to tax as my 2.5 3 series!!) just wondered how it's changed over the years!?

    The daily E46 325i

    As there's a good few threads in here regarding BMW's I thought i'd finally add a few photos of the car that does my daily duties while the 182 is tucked up in the garage........... it's a 2002 325i M-Sport in Sapphire Black metallic with full black leather interior and 5 speed manual gearbox...

    New photos of the Arctic 182!

    Got the Clio out of the garage today for it's first 'proper' run out of 2017 and thought i'd stop off and get some fresh photos as there's quite a few new parts on the car now. I ended up doing around 100 miles of mainly 60-70mph roads as I wanted to gently bed the brakes in as the discs and...

    Calliper Colours!

    Just looking for some inspiration and more importantly, some photos of what people have done with their callipers......... what colours would/do look good, especially in this case for an Arctic blue? Not thinking about bright pink or anything crazy lol but what about gold, or silver, or even...

    Best Disc/Pad recommendations

    Looking to get all new discs and pads soon for the 182 and just wondered what everyone is running and what is best recommended? It's a well worn topic i'm sure and I've seen many posts about different pads but mainly for cars aimed at track as well as fast road use, i'm the latter, just road...

    Omp boss fitting to 182

    Just a quick question, does anyone have an OMP boss fitted on their 182 for an aftermarket steering wheel? If so, do the cruise control plugs fit through for fitting a custom bracket to retain the cruise functions etc?

    Arctic 182 FF

    Now I have the 182 looking just as I want it, I thought it was about time I got some photos up in this part of the forum......... usual subtle modifications like the Fabia splitter, Cooksports, spacers, Milltek cat-back and KTR induction etc but as you can see, it's all about the oem+ with this...

    182_steve's FF 182 progress thread!

    So as the title suggests, this is more of a progress thread than a project thread as i'm not planning to fit a twin turbo or flux capacitor or anything, just a few changes along the way and it's always nice to keep everything in the same place :up: So where to begin!? Well, this is my first...
