    Inlet paint - Paint stripper for prep or just clean?

    I have some spray paint stripper Ill try, its not bad it managed to just about get most off calipers with some scrubbing. This paint looks quite flaky so shouldnt be too bad really. I would just get them blasted and powder coated too but a 6 quid job and some fun is a win for me. I missed the...

    Inlet paint - Paint stripper for prep or just clean?

    Just about to spray a few parts but the inlet on mine came with some naff blue brush on paint and is not very neat around the letters, also the letters looked pitted. Anyone have any advice to make sure the job is done fairly neat?

    Welding lower uj joint?

    wow... I was blind but now I see. The car is an absolute animal now, everything is pin sharp and high speed 100+ is such a joy, I cant believe Ive been driving around all this time with how it was. I replaced everything, inners, rack bushes, outers, got it aligned.. that was probably just 20%...

    Cup restore :)

    I completely agree. I dont understand why its frowned upon to spend money on cars, spending 3k on a 2k car but its not really a 2k car now is it? Goes to most things unrelated to cars as well, its pointless to spend hours in the gym and be the best you can be because when you are 50 all those...

    Silver 182 - 172 cup spec

    After realising the bottom uj was causing a lot of the play, I was going to look at getting it welded locally but I ended up calling pms and now have this! It has a rapfix qr welded on which is very nice and is generally a very solid piece of kit! Thanks to Nick for sorting it out. I have a...

    Welding lower uj joint?

    Well, so far so good, havnt drove it yet ? but looks to be instant reaction when turning the wheel so definitely an improvement. Will test later after traffic. Will have to either bodge the ignition somewhere or thinking of getting a basic spec dash light dimmer panel to cut out and have the...

    Clio 172 coil springs

    "Objects removed from screen prior to test". Mum just had that put down as an advisory, also failed on a rear wheel bearing as kwik fit now have vibration plates or something and a re test was 17 quid odd, but it was free if done within 24 hours.. Mine failed recently on "Offside Rear Hydraulic...

Spoke to nick who was great to deal with and who drove the car aswell so knows his stuff. If...

    Welding lower uj joint?

    @White16valver Im not sure if it is, hopefully not. I watched another video on an mr2 and it had play in the bushing and there was clunking so could be just the joint. Dont think they all have it but I reckon quite few do and people dont realise. Im sure that a lot of people including me, get...
