They've offered to let me return them and replace for a length of my chosing... trying to work out if i can be bothered to take them off and work out the correct length.

Good to know, ive reached out to them to see what they say, but it sounds like they are just overlength and this isnt a mistake on my order. Still got some time before the builds finished so I might change them for some better fitting ones if they offer a refund.

tell a lie, looks like i actually bouth the BRT ones: http://brtmotorsport.co.uk/collections/braided-brake-hose-kits/products/clio-172-182-ap-brembo-brake-hose-kit

Digging up an old thread! does anyone know what length theyre meant to be? I bought these ones and they much too long: lines

My plan was to set up the cams as you normally would in a cambelt change, get the car running and idling and handing it over to engine dynamics to finish the job. Also using the OEM tensioner.

Is there a way to edit the body of a thread once its been posted that I'm missing? I can't see it. Anyway, I wanted to add that there has been some discussion around which valve springs to use, some saying the catcam ones are too aggressive and the 197 valve springs are actually more suitable...

Afternoon all! I did have a quick search on this topic but I didn't find anything concrete (and within the last few years). So after realising that the cams I have to go in my engine build are not compatible with the standard valve springs I have resigned to the idea of removing the hard from...

please delete the above, posted in completely the wrong seciton! :ROFLMAO:.

Small update today, decided to take the dash out to tidy up behind. Id already made the following mods: Cut down the mounting frame - I figured this is to hold the the airbags and the weight of the dash, but with the airbags this want really required. I kept the mounts at the ends and left...

Hey Everyone, I am planning on replacing my cams for cat cams later in the year and I wondered if there is a guide on here for doing so? I'm aware that there is a guide on here for a cambelt change which I have read but it appears to lack a number of torque settings for various bolts and I...

Ugh you're probably right, but it looks so cool! I wonder if anyone does 5mm axle spacers... Wheels are second hand, i was trying to find the et stamped on the rim but failed. Looks like they come in et25 amd et35 based on the team dynamics website. I dont think theyre et25 surely.

I completely forgot to check! I'm quite annoyed with myself. Will check in next week and update! I'm more worried about the wheel to the rear quarter at the moment! I guess I could max out the shock stiffness and raise the ride height. Or just remove the 10mm axle spacers.

Hmm, well hopefully the amount ive done it so far hasnt done any damage to the other wheel bearing. I have put the shafts back in now, and i can confirm once torqued up the play in the new wheel bearing has completely disappered. Also new wheels got delivered today! So on they went, and...

first vote for the tyres being OK! It does sound like UV is the big tyre killer when it comes to the rubber hardening and these have been inside pretty much their whole life. Still, I'll probably replace the tyres to be save.
