Detailed LY 182

[LiquidRich]

I spent the day yesterday fitting a set of Spax coil overs to our 182 with cup suspension and sorted a few other little issues while I was at it like a non working handbrake. After getting it all done I thought given the weather it would be a shame not to give it a good clean and get some pics up. Thought I'd throw a few in of the coily's too which are the RSX type and I'm still messing with the height & damper settings to get it just soo.

Enjoy

get it slammmmmmmmed

looks well hun, have to see her properly when im back. and go out today and buy some silver indicator bulbs ffs!

 

[LiquidRich]

I've gone for middle of the range on the height for now, just wantted to get it all together so I could see what it was like. I need to get the tracking sorted aswell, its definately made a difference to the handling mate, you wait till you get in it

Oh and STFU on the bulbs

rich you counteracted the lightness in the back?

handled amazing in the first place.. god knows what its like now

Official Mechanic is always on hand for TDK coilovers
and you know me I'm always in a 'i can do anything' mood. I may get our Matt to have a look though. The rear is a little light for them I gotta get the balance right of weight and hardness of the shocks, the rear is too hard at the minute and bounces a little when your giving it some

Where were the coilovers from? Looking for some for my 182ff. Would be good to know how they are?

I know what you mean, we've owned both Clio's for nearly 2 years and I still find myself just staring at it sometimes

I brought them from a company called Corby Motorsports, they were the cheapest for the Spax, plus the bloke was really helpful. Do you have the cup suspension though?

Thanks for the comments peeps

 

[JCC]

Love LY's! Get that back end wound down though

 

[rabbit21]

Yer i have cup suspension, thats what you had right?

Yeah it had the Cup suspension, the Spax wont fit straight it, I've had to "adjust" the front shocks slightly to allow fitting. There aren't many people that do them for the cupped 182

Oh and the jack and axle stands wheren't brought for their colour, honest

Thanks for all the comments guys

I know, it felt weird working on a Clio for a change, plus it all went together pretty well rather than it being a complete s**t

Lovely looking car

How did you adjust them to fit? Drill your own holes?

with a little bit of CNC machining of the backets, I will be posting a progress thread on the car in the next few days so should be able to see
