Got a DCi 65 and have a 100 intercooler but not the pipes.
Anyone got the part numbers or pictures so can keep an eye out for the right bits?
Going for 100 intercooler, 80 injectors, panel filter then a remap.
Much appreciated
Rob
Got this for Doggy transport and as a general runaround.
Paid peanuts and upto now isn't a monkey haha
It was a Px clearance so got it dirt cheap and new it had some issues with the handbrake, noise when cornering and engine movement.
Ended up changing the drivers driveshaft as cv had gone...
Well I have had some massive changes on the car front, this has all happened within 1 week haha
My Beasty Impreza has been broken as wasn't been used enough to Justify keeping it:
Since then I have rehomed a Rescue dog - George the Rottweiler is now part of the family:

Well I am back again with another Clio.
Bought it in February and it has had a good history on Cliosport.net with Inferno being the first owner then Daniel before Jenic got it.
It came to me with 84k miles on the clock and all the bills and receipts for its life on the road.
This is my fifth...

Well my brother @matty1995 on here sold his lovely little 182 to chase what he had dreamt of owning for a while - a liquid yellow stage 2 R26.
So he went from this:
Onto this R26:
Then he realised his mistake, his old Clio went to a good home so he couldn't buy that back, after looking...
Attended my second trackday at Elvington yesterday along with my brother in his 182 & Tom in his 172 Turbo.
Great day and had some photos taken by someone in the family - some great cars out and Impreza was perfect.
Plenty photos to look over:
My Impreza:
Matthews Clio (@matty1995)...
Had a day at Elvington today and now some members were there playing in their Clios......
I was in the Impreza and didn't get much of a chance to talk to everyone as had my family there getting passenger rides. Did get to talk to some people and hope to see them again at the next Elvington day...
Well I sold my little 1.0 Mk2 Fiesta around a month ago and a couple of weeks later I picked this up to replace it. They aren't comparable, even slightly haha. Fiesta was a stop gap project while I bought my new house and now that's happened its back to something fruitier.
I had promised...
Well my Inferno Clio has gone and I have replaced it with a cracking little Fiesta.
It isn't perfect but it is superb fun.
It is a 1.0 Popular Bonus (dealer special).
It has 27k on the clock (genuine) and came nice and standard.
As it came around 2/3 weeks ago:
As it arrived today by...
Well the Inferno had a good cleaning session on Tuesday and also got a new set of Speedline centre caps to go on the gold alloys.
Was nice to spend a day on the cleaning, got loads done and trialled a load of new cleaning gear:

This month I have added loads of cleaning/detailing gear to my collection, already had 2 big boxes full and it just seems to keep spiralling :o
Cant wait for this weekend to try out some new wax I have bought as well, this month has seen me buy quite a lot of Valet Pro gear and some Obsession...
Tried my hand at taking some night time shots of the car as had a spare night.

Also got some of the scenery as well...
Well since I got a puncture in one of my snow tyres and found it isn't repairable as its on the shoulder I decided to get a nice new set of Hankook Evo Ventus V12's and fit them to my Speedlines I picked up over new year.
I was initially planning on going for anthracite but since I needed them...
Well after asking for advice and suggestions on my last detailing thread I went away and ordered some more items and had the chance to try them on my brothers Arctic blue 182 which he picked up last weekend.
Shots before I touched the car:

Decided to do a little writeup as a few people have asked how I clean my car so I did a little writeup today.
This is the car to start:
First up pre wash snow-foam with Valet Pro Advanced Neutral Snowfoam in my snow-foam gun:
Nice foam action:

Well today I did around 400 miles picking up my GT25 conversion hardware and some new wheels as well.
On the way up to Fife I had the time to get some sunrise photos on the Lindesfarne Causeway of both the scenery and the very dirty Bean, I also got some pics at North Queensferry:

The Inferno has been long overdue a bath so took advantage of the dry weather and also got my Mam's Impreza cleaned up as that was looking filthy:

Well the Titanium is 99% complete now and after realising I really don't need 2 182's I will be selling it in the coming weeks.
Love the car and been using it for work and enjoying the noise - the scorpion exhaust has a meatier noise than the Milltek I have on my Inferno and makes a lovely...
Am I right in assuming if I jack the passenger side right up in the air then when I remove the passenger side driveshaft it wont leak out?
Might be attempting to change the passenger driveshaft tomorrow that's all and haven't got that much time to do the job.
Any help/tips greatly appreciated...
ESP, ABS & Service lights are all on together.
They are on 50:50 - were on when I drove the car home but not when I moved it on the night. Used it all day yesterday and were again on 50:50
I tried adjusting the brake light switch and the lights still came back on.
I quickly wanted to check...
Been looking at vacuum cleaners solely for the car.
I currently use a cheapish Phillips item but its not ideal - been looking at a Karcher WD 3.500 which seems very good and can get a refurbished one from Karcher for £59.
Anyone else got any suggestions or recommendations?
I don't want to...
Some how I seem to have acquired another 182 - it is a 2005 (55 plate) 182 FF in Titanium. It was missing the splitter and lower grill due to a pheasant incident with the last owner - that was sorted in my first 5 minutes of ownership haha.
It needs work but couldn't turn it down - been using...

Well after a week or 2 since its last clean and going over the Moors yesterday I really needed to clean the car.
The car has already been waxed twice and sealed using Dodo Juice Bananarmour and Black Hole. Was planning on doing another layer today but unfortunately rain looked likely so was...
First time I have had the time to test the 182 over some decent roads with the latest mods in place.
Did around 170 miles all in all and had a great time, must admit the car doesn't need coilover's, handles amazing for what it is.
Current chassis mods are:
- Powerflex full bush kit
- Eibach...
I have just bought some hubcentric bolt through spacers - got 16mm for front and rear.
I am just about to order new Taperpro bolts for these (45mm threads) however I am a little cautious as they aren't bolt to hub versions.
Anyone had any issues with this type or issues with bolts loosening...
I removed the custom centre caps from the Williams wheels and painted all behind the cap in black to tidy it up.
After a full cleaning session I am curious what people think without the caps fitted:
And yes I know the standard exhaust is hideous but waiting for a slot in my mates garage...
