    Help needed with wheel stud calculations please.

    Solid top mounts - where from

    Just wondering what other companies make the solid front top mounts for the Clios other than K-Tec? Are they all the same or is 1 set better than another? Edit - I take it the original bearings are used? Seems obvious but just checking.

    Adjusting brake bias due to lowering?

    Bloke at work said to me that I should have the brake bias reset due to lowering my car. Something to do with less weight shift due to being stiffer so need more braking going to the rear? Never heard of this so guessing it's s**t?

    Decat to fit standard Exhaust - 182?

    Since my car is pretty low, the Cat scrapes most of the time! Now I could lift it up, but I'm also on the search for a little more noise, so thinking a decat may be the way forward? I saw in the for sale thread that the Milltek one won't fit a standard exhaust? So Do any of them fit?
