charlie has decided to use 1.5mm piping on the bend that goes round the rear axle - this will then eliminate the heat expansion of the metal which will stop it moving out of position. Apparently if the metal is thinner it will not expand as much, So all will be sorted next week - he is going to...

yeah get the sportlines - ive got pros and they dont lower enough! the rear of my car went down 5mm instead of the 15mm they quote - im now saving for coilovers as it still sits too high and hardly looks lowered - dont get me wrong it definately handles better with pros than standard but wanted...

goin down pro speed in a bit - I know Charlie will sort it, hes quite annoyed that it has happened as well! hes a sound bloke and really genuine so Im not worried.

full leather would be nice - but not sure on the colour

nice mate - will be wicked after fitting all those mods. Can you lift the backbox a bit more to fit in the cutr out better, would look real smart then. What is the 'acoustic valve' what does it do and should I remove mine?

When I first had my exhaust about 3 weeks ago i had problems with it moving and also it was way too loud so Charlie sorted it out by putting a smaller backbox on - this has made it sound great but still getting problems with it moving. Yesterday was the first time I had driven my car for more...

my service is due the end of this month so think I will come and visit you - its a couple of hours away but still better than paying £190 and letting some monkey work on my car and then charging me for washing my immaculate car and for about 2ml of screen wash etc! Will ring you this week Mike

its the door cards in my car - as soon as the stereo is on the bass makes the doors rattle and thats with standard speakers! Also the drivers sun visor rattles real bad - think it is the wires inside to power the light - if i pull the visor down then push back up rattle stops for a while...

ive taken that duct out altogether - it wasnt actually coming from anywhere useful so have just got the one duct now

Nnnniiiiiicccccceeeeee!!!

ive got both a scooby and a 172 - definately prefer my 172. The scooby is much easier to drive and is really smooth but the clio is much more agressive and feels quicker

there are definately more modded cars on here than standard - we tend to go for more classy mods than your average saxo driver! so not a lot of big bumpers and neons, just top notch suspension, minor body work mods, wheels, etc etc. You may not think they are modded much but I know I have spent...

good luck - have fun!

yeah - it is a straight swap mate - upplug the original and whack the new one in - no extra wires needed - did mine a few weeks ago - took 5 mins!

ive also tried the ace parts ones - they also leaked - and I mentioned above I tried silicon, masking tape you name it - there are some LED ones on ebay I havent tried but they are the only other ones I can find.

definately no.2 but they leak!!!!!!

definately meant to be like that - I had a clicking noise on mine for months, it went in to Renault and had the clutch pedal assembly rebuilt a few times and it always came back higher than the brake pedal - as it tunred out it was a complete waste of time taking the assembly apart as it turned...

those bottom ones have got nasty black surrounds on them - if your cars black then ok but if silver then I would not buy them. The middle ones I have had 2 different sets of and both leaked/misted up really badly so I have now resorted back to the original renault white ones which look like the...

speak to Andy at GDi mate - may be able to help with the dashboard emissions light. Also in case you are interseted Charlie At Prospeed in cardiff sells various sports cats - some of which will increase power etc and still keep the emissions light off.

good job mate - looks top!

any good recommendations for front discs and pads? tempted to go for 300mm discs but very pricey

you guys are too technical lol

dont worry vinny - I am just as interested in the front as the rear - its just that this thread started off about rears but i would put the same on the front as the back anyway.

what discs did you buy vinny - are you pleased with them - any problems?? what pads did you buy as well?

no vinny the fronts are fine - I would not bother - its only that the rear discs have the bearings pressed into them so have to messed about with to fit new discs.

Want to spend up to about £250ish unless can get something amazing for a bit more dosh

Nice 1 Lunner Hiya Fred - been tryin to pm you but your box is full - are those upgraded discs or just standard - want to get some nice looking ones that dont rust as bad as OE. Do you do front upgrades as well the reason I was Pm'ing you was to find out your opinion of Spax coilovers - I...

How much did the bearings cost?

If I change the rear discs on my 172 do I need to buy new wheel bearings or can the originals be pushed out of the disc and then used again in the new discs?

where can you get 4 pots from? I think the standard discs look pants - they rust round the edges real bad and as soon as a drip of water touches the main part of the disc it goes rusty and looks shite! I want to change the discs for these reasons as well as having better brakes - any...
