    Cleaning and paint help!

    SRP does contain a few swirl fillers, so you won't get a 100% true finish but it's good enough for the hobbyist car cleaner.

    Pad covering the whole swept area?

    But they're a different size altogether though aren't they? Plus single pot calipers and 6 pot will be totally different. You get more even pressure to the pad with 6 pots.

    Pad covering the whole swept area?

    I read brakes, then Wilwood 😞 Having half the disc unused would be pointless tbh, may as well run smaller calipers with full coverage if you're going to do that.

    Prefer traditional clay myself, AMDetails clay only requires water for lubrication :up:

    20vKarlos' - Renault Clio 172 - Track Car Project - Possible Disaster

    If you decide to stick with PAS and it turns out to be the pump, they're not cheap (i know because mine went last year).

    Neros any good on track?

    Roughly 27k miles round say Oulton Park. I've done roughly 3k miles round there.

    Neros any good on track?

    Depends on your budget. Low: Yokohama AD08R's, Nankang NS2R's, Federal RSR's Medium: Toyo R888R, Nankang AR-1 High: Dunlop DZ03G, Yokohama A048/A050

    You mean wheels or tyres?

    33/30 is about right.

    Water under rear seat

    Ahh right. That's a first i've seen/heard of leaking from there. Like i say, water would have to be physically driven up into that area by pressure for it to run up inside them.

    Yeah, although you can revive them with white vinegar sometimes.

    Don't wash them in anything that has fabric softener in either, it'll bugger them up. Either get some dedicated microfibre wash or use bog standard non-bio stuff (liquid, not powder).

    Worth getting some decent microfibre cloths as well, because cheap ones will cause light swirling and marring. You want soft and plush ones for paintwork. These are nice and soft: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BK79YUO/?tag=cliospnet01-21

    Water under rear seat

    Is your boot carpet wet too?

    Water under rear seat

    Very odd if it is because the water would have to be going right up underneath the chassis. Water doesn't tend to run upwards :tongueout:

    Water under rear seat

    I doubt it's coming from there tbh, that's the rear beam bracket mounting bolts. It'll be the two black rubber tailgate stops that sit either side next to the rear lights, seal them up.

    Megs Scratch 2.0 is more of a cutting compound, so you're more than likely to be inducing swirls just by the nature of it. Think of it like T-Cut. You'll need a finer finishing polish to safely remove swirls.

    Neros any good on track?

    Not Neros specifically, but road tyres will go off quicker. A good half a dozen laps at pace round Oulton will see the understeer coming in. Can still have a good day on road tyres.
  19. Mr Trailer Man

    Neros any good on track?

    It'll understeer on any road tyres when pushed tbh, you just have to manage it or go for a more dedicated track tyre.

    Tyre catching bumper bracket

    Hit the bumper brackets with a hammer and bend them up. The buldge is where the fusebox sits on the other side.

    Yeah you're gonna need that 😂

    Gyeon do a matt range of stuff. Cure Matt would be ideal with it being a spray sealant.

    AF Tripple is ideal.

    Odd place for it to leak, but not unheard of i suppose. It's usually the gear selector that they leak from.

    Recommendations for timing belts

    I think anyway. £500 for belts and dephasher then roughly another £100 for waterpump.
