Ah fair play mate! I'd love lime green tbf, but not brave enough lol

Re: Changing brake hoses tomorrow, do I need the engine running to bleed the brakes u If its the same guy that I got mine from (which i think it is) they are normally pretty quick, like 4days?

It says on the advert; "Please Note you are ordering BLACK coloured decals as this is the default coloured if you require in red, white, yellow, orange and silver or Gold please see details below." Any of these colours?

Re: Changing brake hoses tomorrow, do I need the engine running to bleed the brakes u GSF mate, tbf i got trade discount but its something they stock, its only £15 retail I think dude! Net will prob be cheaper but then postage is a pain! You got some braided lines too?

Cheaper? Most ive seen are like £300...? Where are the cheap ones?

Re: Changing brake hoses tomorrow, do I need the engine running to bleed the brakes u Ah thats fair enough then...they say every 2-3 years but there are very few people who do it aren't there?

Or look at these? Or not what you mean?

Re: Changing brake hoses tomorrow, do I need the engine running to bleed the brakes u Mmm, ive got reciepts for the hoses and fluid with together cost me £40 so i'll do it myself! I do see where you mean thou! Ive been told its one of the best and considering it only cost £10 :)

Do they do the complete set? And if so is anyone running them?

Re: Changing brake hoses tomorrow, do I need the engine running to bleed the brakes u Ive been told its about it litre! I've bled brakes a few times, but i know some ABS modulators can be a pain in the ass to bleed! But there is no was of changing to braided lines without letting some fluid...

When i took mine out the other day I would have said they were M6 x 1.00.

Is this true on my ph2 172? I know on some cars you have to have the engine running to get the ABS pump running? As like i say, i bought some brakes hoses so the fluid will be draining out, and I bought some Super Blue to replace the whole lot, hopefully they will feel alot better, just in time...

LOL...I was reading this thinking, mmm I wonder what they mean...I was like, I won't say anything, cause i'll look like a fool :) Lol. But ovbo its a detailers word...!

Really...? Fair play mate, I understand that but hows anyone ever going to learn if they don't give it a go? How would you do it? Fill it and use something, like you said, p400? Doesn't scotch pads just give something the paint to stick to?

Awesome pics mate!!

Awesome car mate, always wanted one, fair play! I cant afford £2k for insurance though! Lol

See I love my standard 172, partly due to the fact I love xenons, climate and cruise, but then again, I can still get 40mpg and the cup is only 0.1second faster 0-60. But then again, everyones different, plus Im not a massive fan of the poverty spec seats!

Dam right its good practice, I'd love to be a good at bodywork, I have tried and im s**t, but then you gotta keep trying! The only thing I would say is that some sprayers like to work the material themselves, only due to the fact its all in the prep, so if the paint looks bad then it makes him...

In all honestly, would that pass an MOT? Partly for the reason above?

LOL, that could work!! You never know... Btw, I thought you were doing revision? Whats your study? Clios ;)

I thought it was a turbo pressure gauge?

Yeah I don't see why not mate, I think I used about 20ish? Didnt take very long either, but then again i had a wide pit to work on!

Like Dweeb says use self tappers, dont drill holes as the splitter is quite soft and it screws into the bumper nice. Start at the middle and work out, then if any of the bumper screws are in the way, make a small cut around them, and dont cut off the tabs because i think it helps it have a...

You dont stop do you mate? Lol

My car is due a cheeky oil change, whats the standard stuff like? I believe in the best oils no matter what, I was temped to buy the millers stuff you can get on Opie site? Is the standard 5w-40 is it?

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2495&appid=2 this the one you mean mate?

Is it defo milltek you want? Im sure there are people on here that have 182 manifold and a hidden rear back box...I think the 182 manifold is quite sort after mate... Whats on the car atm?

You work is awesome mate!! Really good thread, good reading!!! Got any time to teach someone? ;)

I believe the 4-2-1 manifold comes off the 182, therefore you'd need to get a 182 milltek system but, maybe it could be a custom manifold?
