Jjays RB 182

[Jjay]

So I thought I should start a progress thread!

She's a 2005 full fat 182 with both cup packs. Plasma dials, flocked pillars and a few other bits. I pick her up in a week or so but the work has already started!

The turbo engine is being taken out today and new one to go in soon, it's having all belts, dephaser and waterpump done before it goes in. But the stripping has already started!

More pics to come soon

Not a fan of those dials bud, but all looks good, what are the future plans?

Presume yours is the blue and not the yellow at the end from the plates.

You planning on having a little rocket?

I never used to be but in the flesh I quite liked them

Future plans? Well first off its gonna get miltek cat back with sports cat, heat wrapped mani, ktec induction and a remap. Then leave it at that for a while, save and then in new year it will be boosted

Seems the UK is littered with Clio 172's or 182's..

Out of curiousity I've looked on websites in Belgium for these cars and they're not easy to find.

Thanks! The new engine is having belts done this week then being dropped in...

Question is, as the belts are done do I fit some 438catcams!? :-D

I was having the belts done (again) and the dephaser sorted hence having K-Tec cams fitted in my 172.
