No, I wasn't waiting for the school girls to come out ;)
Saw you glance over as I passed, was it sbridgey? If you had been 20min later you would have seen the famous pink/purple 182!
Are these good enough to pull off with 15" Speedline 2118's?
Thinking of ditching my coilovers and using my old dampers/lowering springs... When I had the standard suspension setup with these wheels it looked utter tripe :dead:
Pics please if anyone has them...
I've seen Mocal used on here plenty of times, it looks a quality bit of kit but comes with a hefty price tag for just a tank. Is it worth the money or will the link below do the job just as well...

Give me a PM if you need anything else, have a few bits of plastic trimming left.

They seem too cheap to be true...
What are the two hole offsets and will it be a simple case of slotting the holes?
Has anyone tired this, will anything dodgy come of it? I'm thinking of opening the hole out so that a rocker washer can be slotted into place. The same as the AST Sporline 2 units... Comments please :D
I'm having my alloys shot blast and powder coated on Monday at work. Is it only the bolt hole and chamfered face that need to be masked off or the rear boss face too?
I've been using DS2500 and DS3000 on both standard claipers and 4 pots for some time now. The car will no longer be used on the track so is it still worth paying the extra money for performance pads?
What midrange pads are worth using at the moment and price? I don't mind paying extra for good...
I need to replace the rear bearings, the discs are in good condition so would rather replace the bearings than whole setup. Does anyone have the size or part number I can use? SKF, FAG etc...
Cheers,
Mike
I'm running what I can assume is the K-Tec wilwood kit with standard size Brembo max and DS2500 pads...
I've done 2 trackdays at Donny and they have worn down to the backing plate, is this something people have experianced with this kit or similar? I've used DS2500 on standard calipers in the...
Should I always have the wheels ballanced after every track day and does it matter if there is still old rubber that hasn't come off?
I still have some old rubber pickup from my last track day and it doesn't want to budge. Is it ok to use a heat gun to remove the stuff?
Cheers,
Mike
Due to the number of RS owners that seem to be residing in and around this lovely town, thought it would be a good idea to organise a little meet and have some grub at the same time.
Plan will be to meet at Becketts Farm, have a little snack, pics, chat then maybe drive off somewhere local...
I've been with Brentacre for 2 years and they have just increased my renwal £100 ffs! I remember trying several companies last year and they would not touch insuring a car with a half cage, any help on who to try?
Cheers,

I've got some Mintex 1144's on my Wilwood calipers (Midlite version), they are pap so looking for something with more bite.
I've found some for the Dynalite version, but not 100% sure if they are correct... http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m49b132s4052p53513
Does anyone know where...
I know there is another thead but don't want to hijack it...
Can this stuff be laser cut? Only asking as I can get this done at work but obviously don't want to feck anything up if not sure...
Thanki,
Mike
After converting my RMD wheel to use Cruise Control buttons, I have since bought the Sabelt Clio cup racer wheel... Question is, do I convert that too??? Any thoughts?
My calipers have 2 nipples per half, 4 per caliper side... Can you plug the top ones to make bleeding the brakes easier?
Reason for asking is that I've seen some with blanks on the top and other with piping connecting the upper halves... Are there any cons to plugging them?
Selling my shocks from a FF 182, someone wants to buy them but they have no cup packs... are they both the same or differ? If different, can the buyer use their own springs or will they need the cup packed ones? I have no idea if the shocks differ, had a quick search so please don't say I didn't...
Not me, nor will I say who...
Light damage to front end (bumper, side wing, light) so only cosmetic. The car has an aftermarket exhaust on, so will this person get shafted when claiming? It was them who went into someone else...
Cheers, Mike
I want to use spray paint on some refurbished 4 pot calipers but after going on the VHT website, they state that you have to bake them for 20min @ 95deg c to cure the paint...
Bit of a noob question, but being brake calipers that withstand well over that temp, can I pop them in the oven with...
