To be OBDII compliant vehicles need both the plug AND the ECU software protocol to meet the required standards. The ECU software (in my case) isn't compatible and it doesn't respond correctly to the OBDII device's interrogations.
Vehicles in Australia didn't have to be compliant until January...
Ironically, I've got the full version of that software and it doesn't work with my 182. The guy who writes the software actually lives in Australia and it was him who helped me verify that my 182 isn't OBDII compliant.
I don't if an Aussie car that's been reflashed with something like an...
Do some data logging on the RSTuner from a cold start. You'll quite likely see huge jumps in the temp readout on the data log- I discovered mine was stuffed after noticing strange temp fluctuations (I had no idea beforehand and it was rare to actually see the temp gauge itself spike.)
It was...
Just do the rears only. I ran Spax adjustables on the front of my old 306S16 with the rears stock; and stock fronts with rear Konis on my old MondeoST24.
It will have an effect on the handling (similar to when you change tyre brands) but won't be the least bit dangerous.
Mr Pea, you could run into issues with our Aussie Clios running different ECU software to the UK versions. I know the UK 182 owners seem to have more success with the generic scanners than I ever have had with my 182.
I'm running ET37 15x7" rims on my 182 FF Cup with 205/50R15 tyres. Suspension is stock height and I don't get any rubbing.
(You might with passengers in the rear when pushing it hard - I haven't had it fully loaded.)
Eucalyptus oil (if you can buy it in the UK?)
Works wonders on removing silicone and the sticky stuff left behind from decals etc. My father inlaw used it to remove silicone from his new Mazda and said it got it off in no time. I used it to remove the stripes off my RSC, just wash it off with...
Larger mufflers will keep it quieter.
With pipe that size and no resonator I reckon it most likely be loud and have droning issues.
You'll also need to mod your cat outlet if you want 2.5" all the way.
Plug some figures into this site http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp - you will need rim widths (as mentioned earlier) to get any meaningful answers.
