Well it's much better than the Note 8 was, haven't really compared it to much else to be honest. Indoor shots in low light can be a bit noisy, but it does decent compared to my expectations. When looking at reviews on YouTube, the higher end phones did better, but I've got no complaints. I...

I've just switched from a 2.5 year old Note 8 to a OnePlus Nord. The main reason for ditching the Note was that the camera was poor, battery life was ok if I was home or in the office but if travelling on the train I'd need to carry a charger to keep it topped up as it'd only last half the day...

Picture samples mostly look great which is promising. My biggest concern is whether it'll handle taking pictures of moving objects. The main reason for wanting a decent camera is for capturing pictures of the kids and they don't tend to pause for pictures at 3 and 4 years old, and they can be a...

That's kind of what I was expecting to be honest. It's just hard to tell from watching YouTube videos how much difference there actually is, most comparison videos are either against the 8 or 8pro, or the iPhone SE, etc When we bought the P30 the camera was considered pretty decent. I guess as...

I'll be ordering one of these next week I think to replace my aging Note 8 that I've had for over 2.5 years. My only gripe with it really is battery life and the camera isn't that great (I'm sure it's got worse over time). I assume it'll be a nice bump up in terms of battery, camera, screen...

The V6 airbox or the phase 1 172 box are considered the best setup for these if you don't want an open filter. The V6 box has one large intake hole, whereas the ph1 has two smaller holes. They don't come up for sale often, and demand quite a high price nowadays.

Looks so much better now. I sometimes wish i'd got a 172 cup instead of my RB 182 cup. Some 70-90kg lighter from memory. I was actually eyeing a cheaper one up the other day, along with a dead LY 182 that had stripped a plug thread. But both sellers have stopped replying, so assume they're sold...

No difference in the injectors as far as i'm aware. There listed for both 172 and 182 at RPD: https://www.renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/parts/renault-clio-range/injector-clio-172-182/ Think i paid about £140 for a full set from carparts4less on my old 182. But kept the old injectors for spares...

Good find that. There is a guy on the Cliosport forum that does injector cleaning pretty cheap. Might be worth getting them cleaned up as spares for the future. Quite a few people lately seem to be having issues with injectors failing. Guess its due to the age of these things now.

Low boost turbo is the route most take these days, if they want more power. Engine Dynamics do a drive in, drive out service for around £2.5k which gives them 230+bhp and similar figure of torque. The RS2 inlets have been rumoured to becoming back into production, but at £1k+, and they don't...

I've always preferred to by these cheaper needing the belts doing, and paying for it to be done by a specialist that i trust. Luckily, one of the best is local to me in Nottingham though. So many have had belts done on the cheap nowadays and had issues later down the line because of it. Belts...

I've had Prolines and Sportlines on 182's in the past, now have Cooksports. I really couldn't tell much difference between them on the road to be honest. The cooksports do seem to sit about 10mm lower though all round, so with me running 15's it sits much nicer. Cooksport and Grams, seem to...

Yeah they look good. But a massive pain when it comes to servicing as you can't access the oil filter easily or the dipstick at all, Plus the brace to the alternator is removed making this a weak point. I had a alternator snap at the fixing, taking out the AC pipes. Luckily it didn't lose the...

I've had a RS2 on one of my previous 182's. It wasn't any quicker than a standard remapped car and only put out 185bhp. Group N timing and remap is the way to go if staying with the normal breathing mods. This normally sees much better mid and high torque figures and around 190bhp. It's also...

The lower gearbox mount/brace or dogbone mount as it's know is common for wear too. Though most are 13+ years old now. You can also get a powerflex insert for these which really helps stiffen the engine movement up. On the negative side you do get a slight bit of vibration at idle. I'd...

Dry grip between AD08R and NS2R is similar in my experience. Wet grip however the NS2R's really struggle, whereas the AD08R handle wet similar to a decent branded road tyre. I've used both, and am currently on AD08R's on my 182 (195/50/15), which i use to commute to work every day in all...

My wife's got a C-Max with the 1.6 ecoboost engine. Seem to emit quite a bit of smoke on start up for about 2-3 seconds, then seems to run perfectly fine. Anyone else have this on there ST's? wondered with it being the same engine might be a good place to ask.

Similar situation here. 2015 i had a total of 555kg @ 95kg, 2015 was when my daughter was born, and I've not trained much since, going weeks between sessions in most cases. Our second child is 15 months old now. I probably could have found more time to train, but with extra work load and family...

The rarest colour is probably Petrol Blue in the clio, i believe they made sub 30 182's in this colour.

I only paid £2400 for my 182 cup in Racing Blue with 90k on it earlier this year. This came with Recaro's, brand new Team Dynamics with AD08R, OMP wheel with cruise control bracket, and most of the normal smaller upgrades, springs etc. It did need the belts doing thought which is a £550...
