Trading standards And conversation to SD in full, awaiting a response still

Sure no problems, I've also replied to Safety Devices. I'll grab some screenshots of my emails shortly

Guess what I'm in the process of doing @Russ Rallye and @Fraser.J. Will update with a response as soon as I get one Ads

Thanks mate, it's come a long way from when it arrived, still a long way to go though. Everything takes time but we'll get there

I still wouldn't spend the money to buy a new front section now, I understand and agree that they should produce something that complies but I'm afraid I'm done with Safety Devices

Not too sure I'd like plastic doors on a road car ;)

I think it's the same as I explained further back up mate, I'm 99% certain my mates 182 has the cup packs as his was definitely a spring tensioner

172 or 182?

First parts delivery arrived today So that's the genuine Renault Arms and all black series suspension bushes for the car (have already fitted the rear axle bushes last year) Cracked on with getting the exhaust mount bush fitted, luckily I have the luxury of a 10 ton bench press in the garage...

One of the two bars in their own would be enough, understand where you're coming from though being in the trade, I keep looking at all my tools from years being in the trade and thinking do I really need all this still. If you have a use for it all then yeah go for it

Can't remember if it's 3/8" or 1/2" drive but you can just use a normal ratchet/breaker bar assuming that the casting doesn't break. No need to buy the above imo if you don't want to spend the money

Is the little lug on the pad fitting into the recess on the caliper? If not it could cause enough of a problem to stop things fitting properly

I'm going to assume youve got a non cup model? If so you'll need to remove the tension from the spring on the aux belt tensioner, most people do this using a big jubilee clamp around said spring and tightening it up, once you've done this it's a case of removing the belt and unbolt in the old...

Not from me they won't be, one bitten twice shy and all

I'd do cage first then, learn the car as you go and improve when finances allow, I went with cage first and haven't regretted it

I would normally be saying cage over suspension but with the way regs change (assuming you plan on doing more than just track days) then do suspension first

There'll be movement/play either in the steering rack mounts or the inner/outer track rod ends. Where abouts in Glos are you?

Looks about right from memory, when you say the steering goes wobbly what happens?

Just a small update for today, plenty to come in the next week or so though Got a pair of washer blanks from @RichValver, already partially painted in customary red Also painted the front diamond as well, ready to go back on tomorrow Currently waiting on a whole host of suspension...

You will need to remove the outer coating off the wire yes, and need to make sure the wire isn't corroded (nice shiny copper rather than dull and green) so that it will have a good connection inside the terminal, electricity doesn't like to have 'work' to get from A to B

Yeah they'll fit (providing the bullets are off a ph2 as well), depending on which spoiler you currently have you may need to change the wiring plug for the high level brake light

Have you tried plugging the cigarette lighter back in? Can't remember the diagram off the top of my head but it's possible that without it in the circuit then the circuit itself won't be complete and will stop the other things mentioned from working either

It is straightforward really. As long as you clean up the broken end before connecting a new terminal it'll all be fine, might be worth taking 1/2 inch off the cable if you've got enough just to make sure there's no corrosion left in the exposed wire

It is yes, although the old one normally breaks coming out of the gearbox

Guess they've gone up in price a bit http://www.renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/product/renault-clio-2-speedo-sensor/

No mate theyre all the same, I bought an eBay one originally which lasted about 3 months, genuine one was about 30 quid from memory

That's fair enough, I've already got PMS top mounts and couldn't agree more with how much better they are compared to stock ones. I ask as I've ordered some along with all the other bushes too, I've got camber bolts but I'm not a big fan of them. If you're getting excess wear on the outside of...

Look like this mate

Great looking car this, how have you got on with the camber adjustable bushes?

Same here, totally confused. As I said before on your thread I'll be buying another shell and starting again, it's the best way I think
