Has anyone looked at why the Maxi engines make 250hp? Meaning what parts are different from the F4R830 motor?

It was mentioned that a 60-2 trigger setup in the software would work with the 182 flywheel trigger. I tried this with my ecu (haltech) and it wont pick it up. Are you guys setting up the OMEX to read a 60-2 trigger?

Does anyone know how the cam phase shifter on the 182 works? I know its a on/off only and not variable, but at what rpm is it activated? and when is it off? Also, what trigger pattern does the 182 use? is it a motronic 60-2 signal? Also, can we cancel the variable cam gear on the 182 and...

This might not be directly gearbox related, but it did lead to gearbox failure. On my 182 i noticed after about 3000miles that the clutch pedal was getting "sticky" meaning when releasing the clutch nothing, nothing, nothing then all of a sudden it grabs. Over time this became more evident and...

Mine does :P

Looking for a shorter final drive for my 182. Does anyone make them? or is there a renualt part that works?

Tom, Dan, I am about to change the clutch and flywheel on my 182.. It seems taking the box out the top is easier.. can you describe what are the major steps to be done?

I have the K-Tec remap on my 182 and its the best mod i have done to the car. No complaints what so ever and the car is a blast to drive. The extra revs come in very handy during fast twisty roads.

Dan R, the reason i am asking is that i have been told that camber bolts are not strong and could break, i am not an expert so advice from this forum would be good.

Last bump

Any other brand that allows you to adjust camber?

Do the H&R allow you to adjust camber???

I have the K-Tec Group N remap on my 182 and i am very very happy with it.. Other mods to the car are a K-Tec decat and a ITG replacement air filter.. Also the acoustic valve is removed. The car behaves as normal, no cold start or idle issues etc.. It pulls much better through the rev range...
