    A few brake upgrade questions!

    I stand corrected then ^^ ! I have read several posts describing how 4 pots on a light car such as a clio are overkill as single are more than capable. Personally, I am aware of the shortfalls with non braided lines and standard pads as I have experienced fade with them. (specifically when...

    A few brake upgrade questions!

    i think its worth getting as good a pads as you can afford as its worth the expense. Many a wise person (re fred) has said that 4 pots are overkill on a small car such as the clio. decent pads + upgraded discs (to stop your better pads from chewing thru discs) and braided lines are a very good...

    Xbox 360 video failure - fixable?

    yes the video issues are due to dry joints on the gpu. they can be fixed if you can be arsed but could also probably be swapped under warranty with the same effort

    PC'd my mates 172 today....

    lol just seen your msg. just looking at those pics thought it looked familiar. PC'ing is a general term for using a powered device to buff and polish your car - similar to 'hoovering the carpet'

    182 ecu in a 172

    there are a few techy reasons as to why you cant just 'swap' - immobiliser etc but essentially your saying use a 182 map on a 172 - well yes u can. from speaking to pete at bellautos when he remapped mine, the fuelling and timing gradually got more agressive with 172 -> 182 altho my late 172 was...

    timing belt, auxiliary belt and fan belt?

    timing belt goes from main crank to cam etc for the main donkeywork of engine operation. iirc the aux belt if the effective fan belt with whistles as it runs the water pump, PAS & air con. from what im told the belt itself is fairly strong, its the pulleys & cams which are the weakest links

    Are braided brake hoses really worth it ? And where to get them?

    yup, if youve gone to the trouble of spending decent money on pads then deffo worth it. cost about 50-60 quid inc fluid and a few hours crawling under the car with liquid dripping up your sleeve :) I did a guide when i did mine which I shall have to dig up and finish to upload
