Silver 197 wetherby this morning

That's a bugger! First job, always do belts straight away. Plenty of people break the clios on the fb groups

Because you checked over a 172 cup before handing over your money and then didn't complain about the seller afterwards. Some could learn from you.

Flame red completely standard 172, last letters of plate JJ, Bradford?

Remove the rear speakers first, then they just pull off.

Think I went as low as 800 on mine. Don't bother with a meg kit imho. I machine polished mine ages ago and they've stayed clear since. Just get a nice wax to put on them after using a polishing compound

Looks great! Those headlights need more though mate, you can get them crystal clear

Something I used to do to fill engravings on keyrings years back was overfill then rub the surface with just normal a4 paper. It's even smoother than 3000 grit and shouldn't damage the face of the wheel

It feels perfect. Next up is replacing the bushes in the linkages which should help even more Does this help? I didn't really do it to a specific angle, just by eye.

Some spacers and a cup spoiler then you're onto a winner

Yeah nowhere near!

Thanks mate. It's clean for it's age, but no minter! Neutral 4th 3rd

Will do tonight if I remember. It could probably have done with being bent a tiny bit more but it's loads better at the minute.

It feels great as is! Maybe something for the future but its not an overly 'mechanical' feel which I like, just is tight into each gear. Haha, I know right! Looks-wise, there isn't much in it between the PMS and this. I was tempted at one stage to paint the ally but i like the shiny case.

That's a bargain!

I believe these are the correct stainless bolts for the arch liners etc - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/292245348364 - No10, 1" Mine are arriving tomorrow so i'll let you know then. That's if you want to go that route.

That's not a bad idea, @dann2707 said the BMS ones use an o ring to squash that rubber housing more. I presume this is why the yanoo gets rid of the slop. I've enquired as to some PTFE shims that replace that rubber housing that used to be run on the Laguna cup cars. It feels much better than...

Fyi they will rust in a few weeks!

Fitted today. Feels great! Still have some left and right play when it's in gear but it's loads better than the OEM shifter! Do people have the same slack with the BMS? This is stiffened up with an O-ring inside the plastic ridged ball and around the outside of it.

Thanking you :) The bottom bit isn't polished as it'll all be hidden with a gaiter anyway and was the part in the chuck of the lathe!

LAD.

@dCi_rep your shed?

You using a hole saw for these? Lovely clean holes

In tight places like this? Surely you're at a huge risk of damaging the rear quarter?

The bristle blaster. We have one at work for prepping pipes before deploying probes, savage things! I would not be using them here. They leave marks that look just like pitting! Small flap disc or drill wire brush will be perfect for removing the rust here

Youre meant to use the scenic one, just one hole needs elongating

And built.

My shifter is coming along now. Going to re-assemble with red rubber grease on everything then get it fitted. Hopefully it's stiffened up slightly too but time will tell. I fully mig welded the bottom extension id previously tigged, ground it back and painted.

Correct. They do stick out but you can get the centre caps on, just.

68mm rears and 82mm fronts
