‘Claud’ The RB 182

Advikaz · Feb 9, 2024

Hopefully tomorrow I will be fitting the following new parts - time permitting:

Rear Calipers
Rear OEM discs with bearings and Grams disc spacers.
Rear pads TRW
Hel Lines.

Replacement Exhaust Manifold to midpipe fitting kit

Powerflex Yellow Upper Engine Mount
Powerflex Purple Dog Bone

RS Tuner 98 Ron map.

Going to pop the wheel back off and check that the angle sensor is definitely on Zero as well. As the abs isn't working atm due to the sensor fault.

no progress today bar getting the new exhaust gasket in.

can’t really see how the hel hoses would attach as the existing hose is crimped and the unions to the calipers on the rear are seized solid.

So unable to do the rest of the bits as I couldn’t risk snapping the hose union and the new hoses not fitting ffs

The rears don't go on at the caliper mate.

They're to replace the flexi's at the rear beam connection under the passenger side.

Follow the hard lines and you'll see.

Ffs. I tried googling whilst I was in the workshop with no luck. I couldn’t see where they went?

Tbh, the existing hose is completely seized in the calipers, so I’ll need to replace the whole thing I guess to get the calipers off…

Some good news though, I’ve sorted the exhaust smell out

Love to see this.

Helpful bunch. I remember totally F'ing up the airbag module thing and Russ (changes his user name every week) saved my arse.

Question for you. Where did you source your rear discs/bearings from?

They run deals all the time. I paid bugger all for them compared to getting them elsewhere!

Picking on me

Advikaz · Feb 16, 2024

Right. Hopefully I’ve got what I need now and can get on with a few bits with dependencies on the lines not being seized.

Slightly irritating my ocd that the colours don’t exactly match. But you won’t see it… atleast

Excuse my ignorance, what are the lines in the bag for?

It'll look HELish though when it's done

Advikaz · Feb 16, 2024

They are the lines from the rear caliper up to the chassis mate. Then the smaller of the two Hel lines links the bagged up lines to the solid pipes. The other longer Hel lines are for the front.

You may not need to change the bagged ones generally as they are solid from oem.. BUT they go rotten and seize (the latter being the issue I have, so I've decided to change the lot).

Matt Cup · Feb 16, 2024

Ah yeah I see. Mine are a little bit scabby so may take a look at replacing them at some point. The front and rear (over the beam) are braided already as far as I am aware.

it's a bit of an odd setup. Not sure why they didn't just braid the lot. On the rear you've got solid up to the union (for use of a better term) and then about 8-10 inches of rubber hose and then back to solid. Bloody french

The bagged up ones are like 40-50 quid. So not bad at all. They're from ProLine. And are made by Hel anyway.

Matt Cup · Feb 16, 2024

Yeah I never understood that either.

Cheers I’ll take a look and get some ordered.

yeecup · Feb 16, 2024

where did you find the bagged lines you have that replace the solid ones? thanks.

Painted on aren't they.

The white logo's on my anthracite ones are shite, they have started to wash off after only nearly 2 years 😏

I’ll check. Might be a lacquered over sticker…. Might be painted on…

My white ones it's painted on but it's a better quality paint than what they use on the anthracite for sure.

Louis · Feb 24, 2024

They're all stamped on. I complained to speedline about this and they sent me decals to replace if needed.
