Bring it around to mine over the weekend mate and I'll have a look for you, there's not much it can be on the rear. Ive also got 2 newish exhaust hangers from my titanium 182 FF I'm breaking you could try.
For reference mate I just sold a set of 15" OZ F1's with AD08R's with 7-8mm on for £300, wouldn't recommend the Yoko's for track work mind but you get the gist regarding cost of 15" wheels and tyres.
Bin the DS2500, and just go straight to DS1.11 as they last twice as long as CL RC5+, Mintex 1155, DS2500/3000 etc and they have the best progressive pedal of any pad I've used and I've used most track pads for the Clio. Then a used set of r888's and your good to go as long as everything else is...
All depends how old and how many miles they've covered mate, which is pretty much impossible to find out. Me personally would go this route if on a budget and did for around a year and had no complaints what so ever, contrary to what people claim about the springs...
Does sound damper/spring related, my advice pull them off and change to new OE dampers and Eibach springs and the difference will be night and day compared to those budget coilovers.
Yeah the guy who's e92 335d I was test driving was talking about this tech for the ZF as he could see how frustrated I was getting with it in either mode, sluggish in D and too jumpy in Sport. Good to see its actually a decent upgrade. :up:
Ill say it again Nero's are pants! If you really do have 15k hours of track experience you'll have them overheating coming out of the pits, me as a total novice had them screeching (over heating in case you didn't know) after a lap.
For a great all-rounder that lasts you cant beat the r888's in...
My rears where always corroded and didn't seem to clear even when on track. I then rebuilt them using the biggred kit and they clear up fine now. Another way to clean them up is by pulling the abs fuse reverting the system to 50/50 bias but if the callipers are not working effectively then it...
Out of interest what performance pads do you rate in the OE callipers? Got Brembo OE in mine and they are utter shite. Looking at Stoptech fast road pads.
Shouldn't be an issue as long as it passes the brake efficiency test. Does look a waste though but its still grabbing the same area as the 2 piece presuming they were 320mm OD same as the ST/MPS/T5 discs.
Did you let them cool overnight though? The discs in particular in my experience need to go through a cure. I've bedded in pads and discs once at the track without cooling fully and the pads and discs where toast at the end of the day similar looking to yours but no pad material left.
I've transferred pads to different discs and vice versa and never had an issue, just bedded them in each time. Out of interest mate how did you bed them in? Did you do it at the track, if so then they wont have had a full heat cycle and there in lies the issue.
Good lap that mate, it seems similar but you are defo carrying more speed down the straights and through Druids. Would be good to see the vid?
This was the first outing on all my new mods together, AST's, 197 cams etc and the tyres where really letting the set-up down. There was defo at least...
@Wellbs I've got a pair of Genuine Renault OE discs with bearings and good condition ABS rings, £25 delivered if you need them. Ive also got a OSR 182 sub axel (£25 delivered) and NSF/OSF cup hubs with working ABS sensors as well if you need them (£30 delivered each)
