Hi all,
I've purchase the above 200 cup from auction which has a CS sticker in the rear window. I would like to get in touch with the previous owner to understand service history. If you are on here / know them, please get in touch!
Thanks -
Matt
Hi chaps,
My gen90 is currently set up for the standard throttle body. I will shortly be fitting a set of ITBs. What do I need to do to load a base map for the ITBs so we can get it running? I have the connection lead for the gen90
Thanks in advance -
Matt
Normally my post in this section of the forum is that my clutch has sh1t itself, and one of the torque straps has made a hole in the case.
Today is different after doing half a day at snett. Car was going great, until I lost all drive. Symptoms as follows:
- driveshafts are in tact and...
This is the second time this has happened, and this time only after 6hours on a brand new Valeo clutch and agency rebuilt box. Grrr
One of the pins on the pressure plate springs has come away. This has released the metal plates make one hell of a mess inside the bellhousing including a hole...
chaps, have had three Lucas alternators fail on me from ECP. Could somebody point me in the direction of where I could buy a standard genuine alternator for bestttt price?
Thanks
Does the gen90 ecu have an option for a) cable throttle or b) fbw throttle?
Have fitted a gen90 that was previously fitted to an ITB set up. My car has the rs2 inlet and fbw throttle. The car runs with but it has no throttle response so am wondering if it's not picking up the FBW throttle?
long story short: had big electrical issues so fitted a gen90 and trimmed down standard interior loom. The engine now runs (hurrah), but other electrical gremlins have become apparent:
- no throttle response, it will only idle;
- lights turning off when fan cuts in;
- ad hoc no lights or...

hi all,
Would appreciate any help on this one. The immobiliser on my 182 will not switch off. I have tried the ign on / off, doors locked / unlocked method but to no avail. Also tried this method with a starter pack on the battery. The red immobiliser light will stay illuminated and then the...
Hi,
we are fitting a new engine box and clutch tonight. In the valeo clutch kit there is a small part, not the release bearing, that looks like it needs to be pushed into the flywheel. It is not very thick, is it required? Help please!
Matt
Gents,
i very quickly (I.e., this morning) need to get hold of a set of longer rear bolts to run some 10mm spacers and camber and toe shims. Could anybody help out with:
1. Spec of bolts required?
2. A place on tinted net that sells them?
cheers in advance!
Matt
Gents,
The gearbox on my 182 started to show signs of 3rd gear synchro wear. I got hold of a knackered 182 box that a local transmission company rebuilt for me. All synchros were replaced in the knackered box a long with 5th gear. When I went to collect it, I was told that they had dropped it...
...well that's what it feels like at the mo! Bought some cheap rear discs with bearings already pressed in. Bad idea, the bearing lasted two hours on track. Who ever coined the phrase 'buy cheap, buy twice' was spot on.
So after reading a few threads on here I took myself to Renault to buy a...
As above, I was struggling a bit this weekend with the back end becoming light under heavy braking. Is this common? Any easy fixes? I have AST suspension and a white line ARB.

I have been told the O/S ball joint on my clio is shagged. I have ordered a couple of new ones from NWP and have read that I will need to get the tracking checked once I've fitted them. Quick question, will I also need to get the geometry checked after changing them? Here's hoping no as I've...
Yo,
Changed the gearbox oil today and while I was under there I noticed that the boot which is next to the gear linkage has split. Is this common? Is it a big deal? Didn't appear rusty.
Thanks for the replies
Grrr...
I have been trying to fit my new OMP boss and steering wheel this afternoon but I'm struggling. The hole in the boss is too small for one of the wires to get through. Has anybody else experienced this? Any easy fixes before I wang it back in the post to Kam Racing?!
Cheers,
Matt
So I thought I'd start this thread to document the progress of Project Minstrel.
Firstly the name. I am not particularly mechanically minded and a friend of mine is going to fit all the bits when they arrive in one foul swoop, which will hopefully be this weekend. However I had a day today...
I have tried a search on this and although there is lots of related comment I don't think this has been answered before
I have the 60mm suspension bolt spacing unfortunately and am weighing up the - limited - options available to me.
I don't want:
- Vmaxx / ktec etc due to their softness...
I noticed this yesterday:
It is the bracket that holds the ECU to something but obviously it is broken. Is this common? Is it possible to get a replacement part, and if so what is the number?
Cheers, Matt
This is my front disc, do I need to buy new ones?
- slight (c.1mm) lip
- some black marks on the face of the disc, but they don't look like cracks
- rusty on the top
Cheers,
Matt
Hi guys,
I whipped my anthracite wheel off yesterday in order to measure the suspension bolt spacing. I set the gauge to 60mm, and this was the result:
Somebody please tell me I have measured it incorrectly?! I really wanted the bilstein kit but it now looks like I'm going to have to...
I have a 182 and want to order some coilovers for it. I don't know what standard suspension is fitted to the car, and unfortunately I cannot pop outside and measure the bolt spacing as I am 6,000 miles away in Johannesburg!
Is there any way somebody could check based upon the registration...
I have a piper exhaust and sports cat fitted to my 182. I want to replace the sports cat with a de-cat. What de-cats will fit this system?
Thanks very much.
I have the following seat available: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280628714089&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_1024wt_192
Would be happy to do a swap, with cash your way, for another decent seat in black / coilovers / track tyres / other nice stuff!
Cheers, Matt
Hello,
Does Cliosport get any discount from SL Corse? I have been quoted 132quid per corner for 7x15 ET43 2118s in anthracite. Is this not a bit expensive?!
Any money saving tips greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Matt
I have a piper exhaust fitted to my car. Does anybody know what noise level they will emit with:
- a sports cat
- a typical non-silenced de-cat
I'm considering booking a track day at Oulton Park on the 27/10 where there is a noise limit of 105db and don't wanna get kicked off the track
thanks
I'm taking my car to JMS this coming Friday for a suspected lambda sensor failure, but more interestingly potentially the package above. Unfortunately they don't have any company demo cars with the packgage fitted and despite the glowing reviews on here I'd like to experience a car with one...
