Hi there. I have a Clio trophy and one of the tyres persistently kept going down over night! I had 2 new pilots. Unfotunatly this didn't solve it either! The wheel has a perfectly straight crack with no dint or paint deformation on it so I can only assume it was a pothole! The crack...

yep! as soon as I replaced the ball Joints and fitted the top mounts it went away!

Ball Joints or top mounts ;) James

Re: My aircon removal (clioproject beginning) Thanks mate ill embark on doing mine in a month or so :D James

Re: My aircon removal (clioproject beginning) Great workmanship!!! More pics of the air con removal brackets and false floor please :)

I have exactly the same issue with my AST's! I may ring Curtis and see if he has an improved bolt setup now as I saw some at JMS with a different bolt setup.

get them pressure bled as Fred said you will then at least know they are bled and it must be the m/c

just have a check to see if the bleed nipples point up and dont face down, that was the pitfall I fell in. Have you pressure bled them or he conventional pumping the brake pedal way?

I had this on my saxo is cause from over heating.

I need the rears on mine doing also! Euro Car Parts want £95 plus VAT per side. What is the cost for your refurb service Fred? I will give you a call next week as im in desperate need of some DS2500's aswell. James

as Fred said, on my saxo I went from the gti6 brake setup with the 23mm m/c and went for a hi spec moster setup and the pedal travel was less, check your pads, air in the system or something maybe flexing somewhere if all that fails upgrade the m/c size. James

12mm are your friend Rob, They come about 8mm out of the hub and then will take another 30 minutes to remove the rest of them!! pain in the ass job! Looks great Nickson, I have set mine to full caster and used the camber bolts to adjust the camber, give that a go it may solve your problem. James

How low on the H+R's would you say you were in this photo? I managed to get a rear shock btw off topic! Euro Car Parts FTW!

Its a Streamline one courtesy of Bic ;)

Thanks everyone :D

Ah great!! can you send me a link? James

Hi I have recently purchased a set of H&R coilovers and one of the rear dampers leaks, Does anybody refurbish these and if so how much? James

Thanks Davis I agree it is a very subtle drop without compromising comfort

It's on eibach proline springs with AST topmounts. I haven't gone for the mark fish setup because I think I'm going for the kw variant 2 or AST setup.

thanks for the commens everyone! The badges are being replaced with carbon items when I get back from lemans.

Almost!! broadgate down the road a bit!

After giving the trophy a quick going over with Dodo Austintacious (SP) I thought it deserved a few decent pictures. I hope you all like, comments welcome James

Behind my trophy on the way into Newark. James

could have been me? I work in newark and have a trophy lol! actually not at that time.

have you got any pictures of the developed suspension setup? I could be very interested for my trophy. Any rough idea of costs? James

perfect size! will be an adition on my KTR exhaust!

what size tips are they?

a cammed saxo vts/106gti with a manifold exhaust and raceland will be near on the same as a clio with the usual exhaust remap inlets v6 airbox, nothing in them really. The clio feels alot better constructed and feel alot more sturdy.

Pressure bleeding is your friend ;) easy as pie. Heres my saxo, that had some pretty epic stoppers on it! Great cars I must say. The biggest regret I ever had to date was breaking it!

buy andy's exhaust! I have a DA mate, bring it down sometime for a pass over. James
