I painted my calipers weeks ago, and the paint is still good. I used the brush on stuff, but essentially the same.

lol. I dont see the point in putting extra key words in like williams to get found. Like when clio parts are advertised with extra words like "saxo" , "peugeot" etc....they must be daft.

50 minutes.lol! Dont you like driving?

use some pliers or something on the chip side of the pin to act as a heat sink(so you dont damage chip) then wait till soldering iron is hot and desolder. maplin have got some adjustable ones on offer for around 12 quid at the moment.

Fred's says he never replies lol. edit:beat me to it....

Any chance you can fit my coilovers tomorrow.lol. I know its short notice, just need my eibach springs off asap for a sale. pretty please????? I have been advised not to do it myself. Might be a good idea seeing as I have never fitted them before.

hammerite smooth. Works well on calipers and will find out soon enough, if it is any good for a very hot plenum.

Update! Done 3 coats so far, i think it needs another 2.

This is the cheapest way.

as said by makavelli on another thread to me. Unplug everything connected and unscrew the bolts. Dont do it while its hot though.

What height you got them set at and do they rub?

bit of advice, go to asda for nitromores, cheapest place i have seen it.

I had a problem tight round roundabouts because tyre pressures were too low, the front end was gripping more and oversteering so sending me into sideway slides, upped the pressure all round from 28 (ooops, should keep an eye on it) to 32 f 30r, all is good now. Doesnt slide as much.

Yeh! Well i graduated from uni (2.1 :D) and only work weekends, but jobhunting too.

dunno, dont think so, havent done it yet.

Could tell it was a sport by the noise so checked it out when you came past again. I live on the droveway at the good end.lo.

cool cheers mate. will order a few if they're that cheap.:D

you would regret it. I am painting the hard to polish bits, the renault sport is easy too make shiny. Took me no more than 5 minutes with my drill to do 4 stages of polishing.

Is it self sealing then?

cool! I got funny looks today taking pics of my engine bay.lol.

I guess around 15 hours or more. I was messing with different techniques :- dremmel, halfords wet/dry, cheapo pound shop wet/dry, wire brush on drill and finally linishing kit and polishing mops. The latter appears to be the easiest and most effective method.

What do I need please? And how much. Do i need to get some sealant or do they not need it.

One tin of hammerite smooth and still half full. Done front calipers and fuel rail guard, will be doing top of plenum tonight, around the lettering bit. Finished polishing the plenum today, what ya think?

Hello.

around £25 for a new arch liner. I paid £50 odd for left and right ones. you need two rubber plug things unless you can get the old ones out without damaging them.

Cool, we could have a wolves meet again soon, there are loads of members round here now. I thought I was the only one.:o

lol. I'll probably still be in bed.

Have you got multispoke alloys? like turinis?

At the girlfriends at the moment. Its just by the subway on the droveway. I could probably see your house from here.

Is it the fan slowing down ?
