As has already been said before we've all had a good blast on quiet roads, brings it all home. RIP.

Oh I wish I went now looking at these pictures. Next year!

Got to love that bonnet, my first car.

Whaaaaat? I'm 35 and on my 2nd RS having previously had a 1.8 16valver. I'm regressing- thinking of doing my bike test. Nothing wrong with a sport!

Yeah mate, I've been told to go back next week if I want it checking again foc. I will get them to straighten it then but yeah it feels immense around corners now!

It worked!

Not sure this is going to work but will give it a try, what should follow is the print out of my tracking done after fitting camber bolts. My local garage is crap so I need to go back to get my steering wheel straight but what do you lot think?

I put camber bolts on at the same time which massively altered my toe, by I suppose there is the potential for movement

I wonder how necessary they are in reality, then I do live in the sticks. I can't see anyone stealing wheels off a ten year old car, tempting fate there maybe?

Oh I've read that thread Fred! Ha ha, well it looks roughly equal using measurements from the top of the wheel to the arch. Tracking needed now, you can hear the scrub pulling in to my drive.

That's made a difference, the passenger's side looks a bit wild! It made - 1.00 on standard bolts, on max camber what might I have?

Ah ok I put the tab facing the wheel, so I need it facing the engine bay? They are eibach bolts I believe.

So I had - 1.00 left, - 0.38 right camber and - 0.06 left, - 0.08 right toe. I've then put camber bolts on to the max but my garage with hunter system says I now have less camber( roughly - 0.38 a side ) and toeing in 0.17. How is this possible? They did say setting the toe back to - 0.06...

Yep for £20 and an hour or so lay under your car it's worth it

Wow so my 59k 182 is pretty low mileage then

Yep rack bushes are horrible and my shoulders are bruised from my rough drive. How difficult is the auxiliary belt to change Damon65?

Ah replies, thanks I was feeling neglected. Well I was feeling that there was a vagueness /sloppiness in my steering. I've not really given it a good road test yet but initially it feels tighter. The powerful ones seem to be off a harder material and as I said my drivers side was of a...

Replies guys? How tight should the 13mm and 16mm clamp bolts be?

My easybleed leaks from the tyre valve end and I've had a new one sent out and it still won't seal. They work but are a bit cheaply made

Replaced steering rack bushes, bit sharper I think

Interestingly the drivers side bush that I removed is made of a softer rubber

I've done these today, wow what a sod without ratchet spanners. Feels better though. My question is how tight should I have done the 13mm clamp bolts up, I've thread locked them and done them up to what I felt was pretty tight

2014

Wish mine was the cog in the footwell.

Surely will depend on the offset?

Adam @ Renault Wolverhampton, you'll find him on the trader section

I think the old 1.8 16v and Williams seats were the best for comfort and support.

No I don't think it's body roll, just I would like to even them up and increase it to nearer - 1.5 ° to see if it's better I think. More of a need to tinker probably but it also seems to be what people on here aim for. May put new top moount bearings on too while I'm at it.

Opinions anyone??

A few auto correct issues in that sorry
