I've fitted a new 22.2mm cup master cylinder to remove the ABS on my ph1 and it's all bled correctly, no spongy pedal and the brakes are strong. However, the pedal travel is longer than it was. Should it be like that? Also the ABS light is on (obviously) but I've also got the SERV, STOP and...

TBF at 18 you're doing well having a car and insurance. I'd just put some decent speakers in to enjoy the tunes a bit more and leave it be. And then when your insurance starts to drop get something a bit quicker.

Save up for another car.

The Wilwoods have a smaller pad area, this would mean the pad would heat up more and dependant on the compound it might actually be getting to a point where its working more effectively than with the same pad in the standard callipers. Having four pistons should give you more modulation. I...

It'd be rude not to diff it ;)

The list above is wrong. Now you can search for the right info ;)

Re: The life of... SharkyUK's Trophy [& Fred's V6] Sounds like mine on idle with itbs and piper cams. Graph looks very similar too (like most itb'd and cammed Clios!) So I know how well it will go now :) Bet it was worth the wait!

Later 197 box or 200 box with the longer 5th and 6th with a R26 4.07 final drive would be ok (if that's possible). Not much difference in terms of top gear compared with the JC5-129.

Never really noticed petrol blue before, its a lovely colour. Hope the engine is ok after you replace the sump.

Nice work, very impressive.

I went with quaife. Worked out cheaper, I do more road miles than track and I didn't want to remove the box.

Sounds and goes well :)

Interesting about the Astra pump. I'll get myself one of them instead of the 106/Saxo pump. Have you connected yours up yet?

Balls :( missed it

I replaced my standard Renault bushes with some harder rubber ones from Gaz. Weeksy helped me out with them

Crashy isn't just the spring rate. It's also down to the dampers. It would probably be low enough with some 250lb 6" springs. I've got a pair in the garage not far off that, I'll have to check what they are.

Coil springs in Sheffield can make you some. The length also depends on spring rate, whether the back is stripped out, whether you carry any load in the boot or passengers etc. So, what do you use the car for, what do you have in the back, how stiff do you want it, what spring rates do you...

Put sleeve on. Then it goes washer, rubber, car strut turret, rubber, washer, nut.
