And if ol' jacks as good at detailing as he is at making sour mash whiskey its time to get them painted. Wonder which of the animals in this thread can do that...
Standard feature tbh.
Print out above PDF and take in to MOT station and slap them.
I do wonder how many 172 cups have had these fitted by MOT stations, and how it affects the balance of the car under breaking.
225 block and head is definately straight fit, not sure on the 225 box, but then you wouldnt want a 225 box, you'd want an R26 one. You can use a 197 box on the 225/r26 block, so that can solve that issue, and if you must have an LSD, fit an aftermarket one to the 197 box.
Then the only issue...
I could, but:
- I have finance on it
- Its the only car Sarah is insured on and so cant sell it first and then wait for a new one
- Cant afford to order the new one and then sell this one, especially with the possibility of having to take a low offer just to get it sold.
TBH I am about half way between Renault Worcester and Renault Birmingham. If I could get the right money for mine in p/ex then pretty convinced it would be going, but I cant, so its not, lol. Needs to go in the next 10 months though.
Rob: I was hping the weather would be a bit nicer today so I could give both the cars a quick clean and park them out the back for some photos, instead though its chucking it down that much, and winds that strong my road looks like a stormy North Sea!
Curley: Its Renault Birmingham, any thing...
Front you have to remove bumper and undo a single screw.
Rear can be just pulled off, though again ideally you should remove the inner panel on the boot lid and unscrew.
Veinast - oem ones are plastic, the cf ones ive taken off were made elsewhere.
Impey - Wheels were refurbed due to blemishing in the original finish. I meant one wheel had ten paint runs, the others all had some to but not as many.
My original carbon cup cpiler tips recently got some clear coat damage courtesy of Renault Birmingham, who refused to accept responsibility for the damage, but then they also said that wheel refurbs with upto 10 runs in the finish per wheel was a satisfactory finish...
So anyway, after a long...
From experience, anthracite looks far better than gloss black.
Do diamonds, renaultsport and side badges in anthracite = win
oh and as you have black speedlines, do side strips and mirrors gloss black ;)
I warn you all now, if they print the write up I gave them of the day that its shite... hadnt had chance to do it and ended up doing it while half cut...
