you'll struggle to improve the stock item unless you have a £10K race engine

bunch of tarts the lot of you! ;) I must find the article of when the 172 was tested against F360, M3, (about 10 other cars) etc etc, it came second in the 100-0mph brake test ;)

there's nothing wrong with the stock calipers!

^some had a door lock on both, it was 53plates that changed to 1 lock

there's £150K gone i would guess!

when someone is paying me £600 i like to do the job perfectly ;)

See i thought that so gave it a go without undoing the pullies (timing was **** on before starting) just the horseshoe, new belt on, tensioned up **** on, turned it over 5 times, locked it back up, timing was out and the tensioner was miles off

^nope, inlet and exhaust HAVE to be slackened even when replacing just the cambelt

Monday is bank holiday ;) you need the crank pin, the horseshoe, the pulley locking tool and the extra cog - all that is knocking on for £180 i think

Yeah, they're ok, bit funny, service manager is called Sue from memory

You would think but I know these F4R's better than my own willy, F4R with reground crank will go pop

i can bash it together in 2 days and then bankrupt myself and ruin my reputation when it goes bang or (as Andy was told from the get go) i can do things at my speed with no pressure (ie the annoyance of "is it done yet, is it done yet, why isn't it done???") there's a week alone in measuring...

here's some fuel for the bonfire

don't do it, it'll never last, trust me

100% need to file them down or when they get hot, they expand, bind on and destroy the frition material trust me, i sell s**t loads of these (kam will have sent you the 406H pad, it should be the 565H for future reference, both fit just the 565H has a larger pad area and are thicker, same price...

i hope you filed down the back plates on those pads!

thats just a stock unit

you should NEVER run uprated rear pads on a clio, just simply a waste of money, get down GSF with £7 in your pocket and get some "vetech" rear pads, utter crap and you'll cook them, but that's the point so you have no rear braking effort at all (or very little)

put some utter s**t rear pads in it or just disconnet the hydraulic lines from the rear calipers (note if you kill yourself i'm not to be held responsible!)

diff is off at Quaife, bottom end is pretty much done, just waiting on a lower oil chain cover gasket then i can sort the top end and start putting the car back together :D

I don't get on with them either

but why is a 172 cup significantly faster than a 172/182 with AC then?

ring up and book a slot ;) those prices are stupid! WHY THE f**k DID YOU GO TO HALFORDS WHEN I'M 20MIN UP THE ROAD? Either you don't like me or you smoke drugs?

and boost isn't quicker regarldess of what the dyno says ;)

about £40 in parts and a special tool required plus wheel alignment after, takes a pro about an hour

.

^thanks ;) i also sell SNR (oe) FAG, SKF, for the rears they're all about £30 each, fronts are about £45 (non cup) £60 (182cup) all approx as its Sunday
