    Tyres AGAIN

    My Uniroyals melted at Bedford however it was 30+ that evening! Great for the winter but the tread is far too deep to push hard in the dry however all round good tyre for the money.

    cheap federal RS-R's in 16in size!

    Seems very cheap! I'm tempted to get some but I've seen some negative feedback online about them cracking.

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    Thanks all, going to stick with OEM from the recommendations :)

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    B14's are on Kam Racing in Cup fitment? I think I'll go for the Cooksport option for now and see what I think. I've heard good reviews and the fact they're sold out until next month means they must be good! I like the idea of adding an 'aftermarket' setup but I suppose it's not worth it if...

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    So new shocks, Cooksports, Whitline RARB and polybushed wishbones would be money better spent than B14's?

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    I suppose the adjustment is a bonus and I think changing from the standard shocks will be a nice change.

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    I was looking into changing to Cooksports but I need 4 new shocks anyway so I may as well go all out with the B14's?

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    Ah ok, to be honest the H&R/B14's seem to be a good compromise. I'll be doing track days but I'll also be driving to work some days so a super firm setup really isn't what I want.

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    I did a little research into the B14's a while ago and they seem to get mixed reviews? For the money everyone seemed to push towards a H&R coilover setup.

    Firmer Alternative to OEM 182 Cup Shocks?

    I'm coming round to the idea of replacing all the shocks on my 182 Cup as the cars now done 86k on the standards. It's currently got Sportline springs which I'm happy with however I'd like a firmer shock to reduce the body roll. As i've got the 60mm spacing it rules out a couple of shocks so...

    195/45/16 vs 205/45/16 ?

    I've used both and prefer the feel of the 205 however they both had different brands of tyres so the comparison isn't 100% accurate.

    URGENT E BAY help reqd please !! ??

    However recently eBay have changed the question/answer function so you can't send personal e-mail addresses. It's an obvious way to eliminate out of auction sales but it's easy enough to get round e.g. johnsmith at hotmail dot com (johnsmith@hotmail.com).

    Exhaust comparison

    I've previously had an RS192 and it's slightly louder than standard with a nice note when you put your foot down. It's got a loud drone on motorway runs if you fit a decat but fine with the CAT. I now run a Yozza which is 92db static so a bit of an ear bleeder on long journeys....

    Gaydon Emissions circuit - Black 182

    The Rainsports have got to go, not a summer tyre at all! It only seemed to be kicking smoke out at high revs but it was noticeable. Another lad that was out in a Focus ST also noticed and mentioned it when I came in. Hopefully it's nothing to worry about....

    Gaydon Emissions circuit - Black 182

    The Astra only started to pull away at around 130 so the Clio did me proud :) Cornering on the rainsports is like having tyres made of jelly, they over heated after the first lap but they did take some abuse last Friday at Beford. I'm looking for new shocks and a whiteline I think, I need to...

    182 yozzasport owners

    I've got the old cat back version and at around 70/80mph it's actually not that bad however as 50mph it's loud! I think if your just eating up miles on the motorway you'd be fine.

    Best suspension set up for 182 (with sportlines)

    Are the Trophy rear shocks the same as a normal Clio?

    Gaydon Emissions circuit - Black 182

    Haha, was me! The lad in the Astra was all over the shop so I backed off until I could get past safely. Your car handled really well, does the whiteline make a lot of difference?

    Ebay Brakes discs/pads

    As above, service is spot on and it's always good to try and support the club traders.

    California Scents air freshners 4 for £6.99 (Cherry)

    Are these top ups that fit into something? Not that clued up on these!

    Fitting Compbrake/K-Tec Top Mounts?

    Not from what I've been reading, should be fine.

    Fitting Compbrake/K-Tec Top Mounts?

    Thanks both, so the best thing to do would be to use the top cap as a template then drill the holes? It's usually the simple jobs that end up being the hardest!

    Fitting Compbrake/K-Tec Top Mounts?

    Has anyone got any experience of fitting Compbrake top mounts? I've got some to fit but I'm unsure on what size drill bit to use and also the correct position for them? Apart from that I pressume it's just a case of taking the strut off as if I was changing the springs?

    My new car.... Audi content

    Wow they've dropped even more since I last looked then, I'll have to look into it :)

    My new car.... Audi content

    What sort of price are you looking at for these now? (not fishing for the exact price). I've always been very tempted by one but not looked into them for a while.

    Talk Talk or EE Broadband - Anyone use either?

    Haha yeah obviously cheap for a reason! I'be previously used Orange broadband before it turned into EE and had no issues but saying that I never had to contact the customer service dept.

    Talk Talk or EE Broadband - Anyone use either?

    Looking into a new broadband package and Talk Talk or EE are coming out the cheapest. They both offer unlimited usage which is a must however due to my location I know it'll be slow at 1.5mb/sec. The max I'm looking to spend is £20 per month including line rental which both of the above offer...

    Remove old brake fluid or bleed it through?

    Cheers for the all info guys, helpful as usual :)

    Remove old brake fluid or bleed it through?

    When fitting them do I have to be careful to keep fluid in the system? I read about getting air in the ABS system which sounds worrying!
