Re: One Year on & £**** spent quote phase1sr: I beg to differ, it's as strong as hell, plenty good enough for a tin can car.

Right, a little update. This weekend was the Nurburgring trip, and what an awesome time we had, Weather wasn't brill, but was good enough on days to get some good dry lapping in. I fund the Rallye a different beast to the 182 I took last year, and it took a few laps to get used to it and start...

Try GSF pal, I found them rather cheap for my discs. £60 for fitting?? Get a jack out and do it yourself!

I very much doubt you have warpped discs, not unless your name is Lewis Hamilton. Probs just needs new pads. Have you measured the thickness of the discs to see if they are worn to limits?

Fair one, my hi-spec's don't fit under steels otherwise I would have some.

Not if you have 4 pots they aren't ;)

White Speedline Chrono's are win ;)

With the atb you can go bigger and still have very useable power. More power is something we will look at after this year. We are thinking of stripping the engine, high comp pistons, new cams, ecu and some cheeky itb's.

It's such good fun to drive, the ATB works really well and gives immense grip in the corners. That and I just love the old style look of the S1. Although it does need a bit of tlc, bumpers need re-painting.

Another one.

Update time....... Well after the alternator, manifold and radiator came off, the engine got a bit of a clean. Before After Then the manifold, alternator and and new radiator got fitted and the front end put back on. We then filled the radiator and gave it a bleed, this heated up...

Get it done, would be great to see one rather than just a talked about one.

I'v done trackdays with both, personally I loved the grip you get from r888's, get them slapped on and go rinsing stuff, suspension will be fine.

Re: One Year on & £**** spent He just bought a brand new one yet, infact I dont think he has used this one yet. I'm sure if you threw him a couple of quid and a box of beer he would do it. Are you planning on getting it done pre 'ring?

Re: One Year on & £**** spent Oh, and why is the cage not going to be bright orange?

Re: One Year on & £**** spent You know my dad has a rather good compressor Chris............

Re: One Year on & £**** spent Pops has the skills ;)

I had mine tracked straight away, had no issues since. I would always recommend getting the tracking done after changing suspension components. Cars might not have the same 'white-lining' affect that I got, but you could end up scrubbing tyres off uber quick.

Tracking does need doing, After I changed mine the car 'white lined' like fcuk, all osrted once it was tracked to the new setup.

If Gregg can't help I am available whenever you like dude.

Sweet pal, cheers.

I had a quick search but can't seem to find a good place to buy ball joints for my 182. Can anyone give me a link to a good place or a part number/size please. Saw some on ebay for £30, f*uck that for a ball joint.

Do it yourself dude, it isn't that big of a job.

I'll be driving through at around 1 ish on Saturday if you fancy doing the same?

I would imagine so. Faulkner would probably do some custom one. Have a chat with them, see what they say. Do you know the spring rate of the springs you have got?

Does it have an induction kit??? If not, you will get 450bhp. Slap some 19 inch wheels on there and you will improve the handling no end.;)

You could try slackening the pipe from where it is leaking and then try and torque it up again.

In English please.

It wont be brakes. Lift your bonnet, grab the rear of the engine and roll it forward. If it moves around too much, then it will be your upper mount. My money is on the lower gearbox one though, it's the usual one to need changing first.

Don't bother with MAX, no need. HC's will do just fine.
