Certain pads it is advised to remove the shims off the back and also file the edges/corners off the pads.
This may not be the case with yours as I'm not up on k-tecs pads.
I need to get some ordered
Which one though.

I'll be ordering some other oil from Opie so may aswell get it all from there.
Haha!!
I did that on my brakes as I was undoing (well actually tightening) the bolt on the back of the caliper and having a simple moment starting turning it the wrong way.
Only got my car to use so wouldn't want to take one out and drive it anywhere.... I could go to a breakers yard but was hoping someone would know the naswer so I can just order some.
One of my favourite cars on here... 130k christ...I'm up to 98k and my Alternator is buggered :(
I cant decide whether to just keep it runnig or throw a little money at it and fall back in love like it seems you're doing.
I loved my car on 15's but it was quite low to get them to suit the arches.
Its a boring age old suggestion but Turini's, Pro Race 1.2's, 2118's, OZ F1's, OZ Ultraleggera.
The 4-2-1 manifold was one of the main changes that I know of but I'm sure there were a few others little tweaks, Getting the manifold on a 172 is quite expensive and I'm sure most say it's not worth it as you need the manifold £250ish 2nd hand plus cat/decat and a fitting kit.
If you're...
It's all money dependant.
Ph1 Airbox with ITG Filter and uprated CAF's
Decat and Aftermarket Exhaust
Matched Inlets
Live Mapping would always be better but with basic breathing mods i'd just go with the RSTuner
Eibach Sportline Springs
Pro Race 1.2 Wheels
As said it depends on your budget...
Car is in need of service soon so.....
Where is currently the cheapest place for 4 NGK PFR6E-10 Spark Plugs?
Silkolene Oil?? (Opie Oils??)
Oil Filter
Cheers

What bolts are used to secure the upper plenhum??
I'm pretty sure a couple got sheared off when tightening them last time so will need to order some more for the upcoming service.
Also to stop it happening again what torque should they be done to?
Cheers.
