    what colour to paint brake callipers?

    the GTI mk V has red calipers (for example) and they're nothing special but look good though. so can't go so wrong in painting them like this. yeah it depends on the colour of the car a little - if you're yellow or green then probably red won't cut it- otherwise black suits every colour if you...

    clutch is high

    push really hard on the brake pedal, the plate on which the pedals are mounted will bend :D talking serious you may have the pedals higher than normal. go and check an identical car and measure it's travel. IIRC the travel should be around 13-13,5 cm from clutch pedal to the floor, measured...

    clutch is high

    I wish mine was high, as now it creaks all the time when givin it some. meanwhile I discovered that the whole pedal assembly is lower by some reason therefor I'm lacking travel. So I guess if yours is high it means it's normal ;)

    £3.50 answer to a stiff and creaky clutch?

    no, the cable has rarely anything to do with the creak. I changed my clutch one year ago and used some copper grease here and there. the creak was gone for a few days. if the cable was one of the parts causing it I should've heard the creak right after the clutch was replaced

    Camber bolts - few questions

    I've seen someone here complaining about the camber had changed on a track day, he had coilovers with elongated holes. As I understand the top bolts have to be really tight in order to keep the camber. Even so, I think the camber bolts are better in keeping the camber. I'll report if anything...

    Do 182 wheels fit a 172?

    direct fit no problems, they'll stick out 3 mm since the ET is 45 but that won't do no harm, so no worries

    how do you tell if alloys are good quality

    best way to be sure you get a decent alloy is to buy a known brand I'm afraid.

    DIY camber gauge

    I had my bolts fitted today (at last!) and not being careful on the gauge I accidentally went to 1,85 negative on one side and since I struggled to get the top std bolt off (not having quite the right tools-mainly adjustable spanners) I decided to let the camber at this value for now. The...
