Very nice mate, miss my BG :(

I've replaced a couple having worked for a NHPC and like you said it is just a 'noise' and don't effect how it drives at all. There not a nice job to do at all. We had a couple come in with big power from litchfield and what a difference the Y Pipe mod makes!

What's the difference between the 197 set up and a Megane? I thought they were the same.

To be honest I was expecting it to take a lot longer. The casting on the right in the pic which mounts the lower bearing wasn't required as the issue was the upper ball joint which had shocking amounts of play, I just changed both for good practice. Tbh I couldn't believe how easy everything...

Have you had any issues with the bell-housing bearing?

Top man, thanks mate

Basically you change the ABS ring seperately by heating it up to remove. The job can be done in place, any good garage should be able to take on this job with no problems. No need to take it to a main dealer i wouldn't pay more than £80 all incl.

anyone know how to upload pics from a mac? cheers guys.

Afternoon all, just replaced the N/S/F Upper ball joint And bearing flange carrier also known as a Swivel Hub assembly on a friends 197 this morning, the whole job took about 2hrs start to finish, never changed one before and it was no stress. No special tools required so who ever is familiar...

Yeah well just had enough of LETs chip and had the VAG engine cheap. Will post some pics up when done.

Also have the added advantage of being a High Performance Center which means i get to play with the GTR :cool: To be honest mate i would leave her how she is...she has subtle mods and that is all it needs. A Meggy Turbo engine would ace tho!

I did my apprenticeship with Nissan and we were a Renault dealership also so was conveniant for parts etc. Renault have since moved on but still working for Nissan, they seem to be more of a Renault at the moment tho lol. Your 200 looks much more "****" with black wheels :cool:

Cant complain about that Chip lol. One of the Nova's in my Avatar has Just received a 1.8 Vw 20v turbo, something abit different to the norm.

Fair play mate I'm rather jealous, i do really like the 200 and that colour is lovely with the black wheels. who due work for btw?

Was you running that in a nova too buddy?

Now thats just cheating lol, is that the engine from a 93Turbo? how come you dropped the LET?

Compound charging a LET, this i must see! :)

Good to see you come over to the dark side lol. How is the Nova these days, you happy with it how it is? I need a boosted 182 in my life :cool:

You have certainly added tasteful engine modifications mate its totally different to what we are all used to, even for someone like myself who works for Nissan i have never seen anything like this in my life lol. Good project tho buddy, keep up the good work.

Great news Chip, I'm sure i remember you from Migweb many moon's ago. This conversion is definatly something I've been itching to do for a while now.

This is probably the case, we use the same Family of Gearbox's in the Nissan Micra and Note its extremly common thing to happen, remove the end casing and re-tighten the Nut on the end of the Input shaft. Hope you get it sorted and it is as simple as this.

Ahh okay matey, glad you got it sorted :)

why do you need to replace the main beam bulbs if it failed on Position Lamps mate? Your Position Lamps are your side light bulbs.

where did you get your mounts mate?

Thanks mate, been a good help, il remind you tomorrow for sure. :D

Yeah I've been looking at the power flex bushes but just didn't want any extra vibration in the car, what are they like? i want it sat nice and tight against the bumper cut outs. Be great if you could get me a pic mate :)

Hi guys, I've recently fitted a Milltek system to the clio and to be honest I'm abit anal about how it sits in the bumper cut outs, at current I'm not to happy with how it is sat and was wondering if a couple of you could put some pics up of your 182's with Milltek Cat Backs. Cheers, Owen.

Yes the Toothed Ring Is the Reluctor Ring Pick up for the ABS.
