you can run shims, just have to file a lot more material. Being a track pad, they're not designed to run road niceties like anti rattle/squeel shims

It's not the seals, they dont seem to leak, they just develop a lot of play in the shaft. As far as i know it's an issue they're aware of and trying to solve.

if you like, can't promise to fit you in same day, but some time next week is definitely no problem

got a car with a knocking set in the workshop right now. removed and returned numerous sets, identified knocks that multiple experts couldn't find and blamed on top mounts. Even removed some that had already been reconditioned once and one of the fronts had play in it again.

Can get them within a couple of hours. Give me a call monday

the 456 sounded amazing

Bedford. Have a look in our traders section, got some fitted prices in sticky posts :) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?537044-Pi-Lowering-Spring-kits Dan

looks hard as NAILS in the second picture!!!!!!

incorrect, doesn't have to be that way not my first choice of springs, but they're ok. Better than Apex for example which are aweful. I like PI springs for a road car, 25mm drop, ride well and work with standard shocks. Eibach are good but they dont really make enough difference over standard...

nah I dont think so, they sell both. They actually had about a dozen manufacturers send them samples to try, all quite similar as there's not many things you can make different

this is my favourite post http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?582824-519-Automotive-New-Coilovers-%A3699.99-and-%A3799.99&p=7787018&viewfull=1#post7787018

tricky one. There's a lot of crap out there, and a lot of the time good quality parts are badly setup. If you can't afford a good quality set of coilovers, then standard shocks (new) with good springs is a better route to take. If you want to go as low as you can, then there's lots of budget...

no damping adjustment, no camber adjustment, over priced, dampers develop lots of play. I wont sell them

if it's down on power, the timing has definitely been set wrong. There is a sticky thread at the top of this section about why you should always use someone experienced with these engines. Have a good read. If your man thinks it could be a "tooth" out then he hasn't understood how the timing on...

complete dick when that comes loose, had to fight a few. it's a nyloc nut underneath. You can get to it with a spanner, but there's very little room

THIS!!!! I see no welding, you're going to have issues

I do like a nice black gold 182

leaking washer pump seal sounds the logical thing to look at

you dont get a face like this without getting your beauty sleep ;) I'll be in work in the morning, then gumball over to silverstone

I would get it on a fault code reader as this should get to the bottom of it. The plugs would be a good place to start as these struggle to do more than 30-40k before needing replacing (service schedule recomends every 72k) also lambda could be the cause but a fault reader would pick this up.

probably means there's a problem with the alarm switch on the bonnet/slam panel

4 bolts, 6 trim clips, 2 plugs and 2 water pipes. few minutes work

post the vid of Jay having an emergency puke ;)

I would always run the ones that cover the gear stick linkage and the handbrake cables The ones above the backbox aren't protecting much, just trying to keep the boot cool so there's no issue with removing them IMO

watched those vids through about 10 times last night, just looking for tiny technique differences, hehe

if they dont deal with policies for modified cars , then their price structure wont be setup to cater for what you want. Specialist modified insurers have schemes that they design for mods, so dont be too shocked

the monthly line rental is part of the contract, if they raise it they have to give you the option to decline

jack up the car so wheels are off the ground, fill the reservoir, then turn lock to lock with the engine running, and top up the fluid as needed and keep goin until you find a leak, or the level stays up.

I'd think they'd work OK. 438's are effectively a toned down 421 so you wont get the same results you would, but i'd expect them to give a nice torque curve

got a Janspeed on mine, and I'm breaking the car in a few weeks
