I have the car currently ;) spent half the evening rectifying the job that had been done. Gear linkage had smashed the crap out of the lambda so it was fully dead. Exhaust and cat fit PERFECTLY now ;) along with a nice new cat fitting kit
won't get the correct cup bits from Euro/GSF etc
Simple answer is they can't and usually fit the wrong parts. I've removed base model springs from 182's before
you need to find a way to hold the nuts inside the body whilst undoing the bolts. Front ones aren't too bad (bit fiddly) but the rears are a massive pain
Just a thought, did you fit new disks with the 1166 pads? If you didn't they won't have worked to full potential. 1166's are really aggressive so I'm surprised you found them lacking in bite. However the F4's will be a step up, but they're definitely more progressive to use than CL RC6's
if the valve is gummed up, remove the spring, lubricate the mechanism and work it back and forth, then bleed the rear brakes. Had to open one fully recently to get any fluid through to the rears at all
I don't think any of them would really be amazing on track. All very much exercises in as much as possible, just because, and Stevie and K-Tec's cars to the absolute highest standards possible in every detail. I've not seen Stevies car in person, but I'm told it's faultlessly prepared
probably MATT BLACK's old VAG engined one but when Norm owned it. Can't remember what figures it did though.
K-Tec's current 400~bhp one and Stevie H's trophy are the biggest power F4R's I can think of in clios
I don't see the advantage unless you want it to work on other vehicles. The 3/8 square drive is welded on at the ideal angle.
I might make a few and sell them if i can get hold of some reasonably cheap extensions to cut up
not an entirely accurate post as superblue is a DOT4. You're right that it's boiling points that are the difference (and blue fluid is a piec of piss to bleed) but DOT rating are not boiling point related
