Is the circlip a similar fix/setup on these like the 1#2's. Whereby you can remove the N/S driveshaft to see the circlip?

Hi all, Just picked up a set of brembo 4-pots and on a quick measure of the caliper bolt holes they look like they take an M14 bolt. Has anyone got a picture of the bolt, size, or part number before I ask renault. James

Now thats a bit nice!

Knew i was missing a bit! Taking off the bumper!

Yup. Although I am sure I read you can undo the dampers and swing the beam down enough. This might not be true. Normally if fitting an after market system the standard pipe is cut in order to remove it, and the new ones are normally in more pieces to fit with the beam in place still

Grabbed my weekend supplies just before they closed the front door! Close call!

Must have that feeling of "it's so close, yet so far". This has made me pull my finger out and thinking about getting going on my Mk1 again!

Just to clarify...I was joking. I'm sure you know that anyway.haha

Will be my first West Mids meet, I doubt any of them will bite! (I take no responsibility if they do though) Still hoping I'm not working that day as really want to get to the meet!

Spotted you yesterday leaving morrisons about 3.45. Pulled out just after I came in

Could look good. Be interesting to see the finished product.

Looks like a basis of a great build! Will be keeping an eye! Good work Much work being done engine wise?

Justin, have a quick look in your other thread you have started. Put a guide over there for you as well

There is a bit on it in this guide. Scroll down and you will see the picture and writing about rear calipers: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?408371-Fitting-Front-Rear-Discs-Pads-braided-lines-and-handbrake-adjustment-on-182

In the guides section here is a guide on it. Will go find it. Off the top of my head the face of the piston has like a X shape groove on it. You can use long nose pliers i believe to turn the piston. As you turn the piston it moves it back into the caliper body. I'm not recommending this method...

They wind back. A proper tool is preferred but you can wind them back without one.

If you have a small puller available like below, it can help pop the arm off:

If you have a small puller you can often use one to pop the arms off as well

Is it parked on an angle by the looks of it? Looks good, although back looks a bit low. Raise the back up and level it, or raise back and lower front to put the rack the other way. Looks a nice height though

Found the pictures: (scroll down) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?334893-fixing-the-damn-gearbox-circlip!&highlight=circlip

Sounds like the common diff circlip like Scotty says. I could be wrong, but I'm sure there were some pictures on here that showed the circlip area if you take the n/s driveshaft out. Will see if i can find the picture.

Often see photo's floating around of your car. It's nice to finally see how it all pieced together along the way! Top work!

Flick the switch on control panel on the right hand side green light on the dash. If you get the orange light, that is the speed limiter, flick the switch the other way: When your at the speed you want just press the + or -. That will keep you at that speed then obviously + and - will speed or...

Looks like a great finish on them and that's a pretty good price too!

Looks like a right handful! Nothing Nothing.....TORQUE!!!!!

Cracking little write up! And a fantastic looking car, your going to enjoy every minute of owning it I'm sure!

Gutted! I should be out there with work in our team Europa, but unfortuntely due to unforseen and tragic reasons last september we had to pull out. Will be sure to watch some later!

Look really smart!

I'm looking to try and get to this too. Just can't guarantee I'm not away that weekend at the moment.

Sure I have read on here that you can check for play on the dephaser pulley. Obviously with the engine off, if you grab the pulley can you feel any play? Also is your cambelt going from side to side across the pulley a bit? That's whats making me think about checking for play in the pulley.
