Needs to be full wet for rainsports otherwise their performance drops off considerably.

GL4 @NorthloopCup can sort you a rebuild out.

Might if I remember 😂

Could do with putting the date in this post too.

Looks like rubber pickup from being on track.

Old enough to be his dad 😂

Bit further up north than me in Warrington then.

Where in the NW are you?

Cool, just wouldn't put any on where it's going to get loctited.

It wipes off easy enough 👌

Here's what mine looks like. These have only been done with ACF once since they were fitted a year ago. White stuff is road salt.

Nah not yet.

No didn't work. Still works connected through a hotspot on your phone though, so weird.

@YorkshireKyle turning off ipv4 didn't work, just lost internet connection 🤔 Ipv6 maybe not set up on that router or something?

Shouldn't need passivated mate. The amount of times you clean your car, i'm sure you'll be giving the studs a quick wipe over with ACF everytime 😂 (Forgot to get a pic of my studs, i'll do it later, promise)

Don't put any friction modifiers in, just 75w80 GL4 spec.

Yeah it's not cheap, but you can use it on everything that you don't want corroding like coilovers etc... If you can find a little empty bottle and send it me i'll fill it and send it you back.

I would love to try one of these induction heating tools

Probably hasn't got the 400Nm of loosening power tbh. That's usually the stated tightening torque. Keep trying it on mode 3 for a good few seconds and maybe even try tightening it slightly and then backing it off.

What impact gun is it?

Bigger bar.

Ahh, i was going to say! If they had been coated with ACF, i'd be shocked to see them in that state. Go for the bottled stuff mate, then just dab/spray some on and let it wick around the threads for a minute, then wipe the excess off.

That is surprising mate! Which one are you using, the aerosol version or the bottle type? I put it on all the threads apart from the shank area that will be loctited into the hub. I did pre treat mine a few days before i fitted them. I'll take a pic of what my PMS ones look like later...

This is what I read The grease does not conduct electricity, so it shouldn’t be applied directly to the mating surfaces (pins and sockets) of an electrical connection.

Dielectric grease doesn't conduct electricity does it? Surely you wouldn't want that on the pins.

Top mount bearings?

Every year Tony. Only £8-10 from Euro Car Parts.

Toyota used Yamaha for many head developments. Bit like Renault using Porsche for the Ph2 V6 Clio head.

I think there was a dyno day there from what i saw on one of the Clio pages on FB, but it's like June/July or something ages away. I'd just go down there and ask Chris what days he's got free rather than emailing him.

Might be worth getting it dyno'd at EFI to see what it's actually making. Can't be that low on power if it held off that E46 M3 😂
