Self amalgamation tape. Plumbers tape or bondage tape depending on your preferance around the threads
Protects them no end. As long as they are dry when you do it
Probably not they look likw after market affairs
Likes been said whack a socket on and it should come undone - a 6 point one of impact flavour is your best bed
Good evening gents
Not one to do things the easy way ive been looking for some sprngs for my clio
After reading all about cooksports eibach and apex I found some Faulkeners
On demon tweeks , these can be ordered in a number or rates lengths and diameters
Now I think the biggest...
True mate but people must see it is that and its better than their S**troen
I know that feeling , i have a Van for My business , its not leased or on the never never i OWN it and it drives me mad when people smack it like its junk
Figured that if any undesirables were about they are likely to take the Clio not the Shitroen so they have parked next to it in a "take that one take that one" kinda way
Im sorry to state the obvious but shorter springs "should" be fitted with shorter stroke shock
I know lowering springs have been fitted since dot on normal shocks but its not tye right way to do it really
Plus the dampings not really matched to the springs anyway
The battery produces a small amount of gas when charging. This vents it off to stpp your battery fillimg with said gas and going bang
It its in the left hand side of the battwry as you look at it fits in the middle iirc
I want a 205 again
No manufacturers could get away with makes g something like that ever again
So kight and flimsy with , without treated coreectly , lethal handling
Id say for the amount renault sold thats only about 10%
Prefer tye 1.6 gti its more frantic than the 1.9 and the lumpy idle tickles me. No way could a modern car get away with it
Ha ha. Ive had most of them. Paying 200-300 quid for them and breaking them for peanuts
Id give my right leg for a nice 1.6 205 but the price a rusty one commands and the money youd have to spend
Is a bit soft. One day. Wonder if they will ever be like MGBs with an actual industry...
Thats why XR2s, rs turbos, Mk 1&2 golf gtis , 205 gtis are fetchin strong money now
Give it 10 years and clios will be the same. Now wouldnbe the time to squirrel away a phase 1
In silver and sunflower an exclusive. A cup and a trophy. A LY maybe and some of the other rare colours...
Thats proabably why they charge upwards of £70 and hour
Even at that its nearly 1500 man hours of labour - Break that into a 40 hour week thats 37.5 weeks Nearly 9 months before your turning profit thats if thats all you manage to do all day everyday
Your missing out I promise you
Treat it with the respect it clwarly deserves and youll be fine.
Looks like his car went light on the rebound of the suspension when he went on the brakes too. The Astra crash in other discussion is worse
Im currently using CES for parts. Their own brand padtech dont come with a thin backing plate that some of the delphi pads do
So I cant see it being a problem
