Cheers for the replies Icarus, not tried that, I've been trying to go steady on them to be honest but I'll do it tonight and try to clean them up. Fitted them myself but I did note the mileage. Not that it matters. I'm running redstuff front pads so I do need to get rid of them ideally, but...

I think it will just be luck at how much needs removing/how warped they are.

Got some nearly new (2k mile old) brembo MAX grooved discs on the car, and I've managed to warp them. 90% sure thats what the problem is, and I know I know I'm an idiot etc, got caught in some traffic after a blast and couldnt help it much at the time. Anyways, is it worth getting them skimmed...

ps, clay my car..

If you have the reciepts for the services then thats just as good as stamps, will have the reg, mileage and dates on surely? Just make a few photocopies to make sure you will always have the records of them and job done. You could buy it and then p/x with my car....;)

I ran that chkdsk but nothing happened :S Re-installed windows but then it wouldnt connect to my wireless network, the internal thingy wouldnt detect it. Took it to my local computer place, he's gonna fix it and install a new antivirus thing for me, hopefully won't be too much, I could really...

I want the 182 doing, £900 isn't too bad really.

I'm 99% sure this was the one i was interested in 6 months ago, im sure i recognise the reg. I was interested until i saw the pics though, looked like it had been raped by an 18 wheeler, stickers, chav LED's etc, some w**k wolfrace wheels. But looks tidy enough now, just go over it with a...

Thanks for the info mate, any chance you might be able to grab some pictures once it's done. I'll have aftermarket seats, but want to run a harness to the drivers just for track. Never thought about the rubbing on the handbrake, would be better on the drivers subframe.

Just restarted and its back to normal :S Doing a backup to my memory stick now in case it happens again. I just want to make it work, reinstall/repair, all the same to me haha!

Cheers garf, MR Cake (lol) Matt, tried that but doesnt seem to actually do anything, no progress bar etc. Would that be because it is in safe mode?

I've read on here that the sports are twice as much for the same parts! So you got both sides for £72, or £72 a side?

same as my laptop, this is the first problem though. so reinstall vista from the disc? will this make me lose all of my pics etc on the computer?

When i put the vista disc in i get 2 options: check compatibility online install now not sure what you mean by recovery console!?

I have a dell disc 'drivers and utilities' and the vista 'operating system' one of those what you mean? i am a complete r****d when it comes to computers so any help would be awesome :)

How much was the new kit mate? Did you buy the specific sport one, or the cheaper 1.2 kit?

Just turned my laptop on and it will only start in safe mode :S I can't get restore to work, anyone got any ideas?!

Bit of a tangent, but any chance you have some info/pics on where you are fitting the harness to, ive literally just put a thread up about it. Try local iron monger places, or tool shops.

I'm thinking of fitting a drivers harness, 4 point, but not sure where I can mount the 2 lap belt bits... I was thinking I could mount one underneath the passenger seat between the subframe and the floor, would that be ok? Not sure where I would fit the other side though?

Worth it all day long i reckon. If this was a year on when I'm 21 I would have that, no doubt about it. Shame insurance still want circa £3.5k :(

Nope, i leave mine doing this every morning, never locks.

Was gonna facefuck you earlier mate, s**t about the car :( I told you mate, it's because im ginger! I'm hoping for around £1.2k when i renew in may too ;)

Can't find anything using the search, too many results with no info. Anyone know prices from Renault for the above parts please. Also, anyone know exhaust mount prices?

The exhaust mounts didnt work as well as i hoped! They both slipped loose during some playing ealier on today in the snow. Just been under the car for an hour trying to bodge then on again for now, well annoyed :( Think im just gonna go and buy some brand new ones, and try and re-enforce...

The ugliest and most pointless car on the planet! Work looks good quality, but hideous overall!

Will help if you try and pull the exhaust to the rear of the car. Use something to pry it out with too, screwdriver etc?

Looks like it held up well though, a lot of force to move the boot floor like that and the cabin looks immaculate. Obviously needs a whole new boot floor welding in which won't be cheap, i think on my previous clio that got hit it was around £1800 for the floor and labour....

Don't need them mate. All you need is a small amount of pressure on the top plate as you remove the nut from the top of the shock. I've done a fair few including my own so i know from experience.

I'd keep the spare rears as they are prone to going so will make it easier when they do. I would be surprised if the shocks are any different to be honest, I didnt notice hardly any difference between a cup's and non cup'd 182, which i would put down to the slightly (literally 2mm) lower height.

Have to get it machined out mate, think there is a 2mm difference. Only thing is, do you get the top or bottom hole machined in order to keep it to the same dimensions as a true cup setup. Just change the springs, easier.
