I will be having the toe angles reset sometime this week but need to know what to ask for. I've been reading through Edde's spec's but the details just confuse me, 2 44' this, 1 35' that.
The car is a phase 2 172 lowered on Sportlines fitted with Cup Turinis.
Do I go for FF settings, Cup...
Further to this thread (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=266202), after a week or so messing around with wet and dry, silver paint and lacquer, the final results (apologies for the crap pic's):

This was the worst wheel with scarring around the rim and a gouge out of each fin on the spokes. I did intend to only paint this wheel completely and blend the rims on the others but I couldn't be arsed with the hassle in the end so I did them all.
The rims aren't 100%, i'd say nearer 90% but...

The Dynamique grille must aid air flow.
I'm doing a bit of refurb work on my standard wheels but I don't want to paint the whole of each wheel. Does anyone know a good match for the standard colour so I can blend?
Cheers,

Now I love my A539's but it would appear that they have been replaced.
Has anyone tried their replacement, the 'S Drive' http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=110165163004&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=001
I can get 4 A539's for £172 delivered or the S Drives are £191 as...
I have 2x lambdas taken from a 182. I don't know which is pre and which is post cat' as they both look identical. They are the same length, have the same pin configuration and the same markings on the plugs.
Any ideas?
As above. What headunit does the Clio Campus Sport I-music with the Tune Point have fitted as standard?
I'm trying to work out if it is the same unit as in the 182.

The Tune Point allows you to plug in an Ipod, USB key or USB hard drive and control it via the Renault head unit and stalk control.
This is a genuine Renault item so no pikey foreign junk.
They work with the Megane system so...
I currently have this Rotary: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260132057392
At present, it has a wool pad which ties over the rubber backing plate but this doesn't appear to be a particularly good pad.
My questions are, which pad/pads would be good as all rounders or would...
I sustained a nice little crack in my windscreen this evening while on the motorway on the way home.
Do Adrian Flux have the usual windscreen cover as standard in their policies?
I'm 99% certain that my next chariot will be an R26 so i'm looking into subtle styling mods.
Can some kind soul PS the plate on this pic' and reduce it down to 3/4 size. If you could keep the original recess, that would be great.

I need 2 new tyres for my girlfriends Alfa but need them by Saturday morning. Where do you guys recommend in the Leeds area or someone like black circles.
I'm looking for semi decent but don't want to go over £70 a piece ideally.
The thread on one of my hubs as decided to commit suicide. It is only the first couple of threads however so I'm going to try and tap it.
What is the thread pattern measurement of a 172 wheel bolt?
...an H reg' Astra GSI.
A local joey has been pounding around in an absolute sh!tter of an Astra GSI. He drives it like and absolute loon and it sounds like he dropped a set of Drapers in the oil cap.

The strut tops on Donny_Dog's 172 are well and truly seized. After what must have been 45 minutes of trying, half a can of Plusgas, numerous poundings with a hammer and a bent allen key, we were stumped.
The method we used was:
Ring spanner on the strut top, allen key in the centre of the...
Had these 5mm spacers lying around for a few weeks so decided to whack them on today as well as cleaning the arches, cleaning the wheels, painting the calipers and fitting a new off side drive shaft.

I have my eye on a couple of 172 rear bumpers but I don't know what they are worth.
I am looking for an iceberg silver bumper so that will obviously be worth more to more.

Includes manifold, manifold to head gasket, K-tec link/de-cat pipe and stainless bung for the de-cat lambda probe hole.
I also have a 182 cat' which can be included in the sale for an extra £75 but this will require work to fit.
After much fun yesterday and finding a split inner CV boot, the springs are now swapped.
I'm not entirely convinced by the rear but the front doens't look to have changed. The ride is much improved, possibly better than standard and the handling seems to be just as good.
I miss the lowness...
Now then guys. I'm in the process of swapping springs on mine and a mates Clio and I noticed my drivers side drive shaft boot has split. It is the boot that is half way along the shaft and mates to a metal cylinder containing bearings.
How do I go about removing the shaft? I have unbolted...
