The two metal spring clips arent in right, should be a bit further up so they sit/push against the pad carrier...

Lol ye thats about my limit too, although i did use a cheap halfords polisher to apply the colour magic, does the job ok

Products errrr water, turtle wax shampoo, annnnd colour magic. Nothing fancy lol Ye the alacantara A pillers really finish the interior off imo. Best 20 quid spent

Cheers mate

Its completely standard bar the Yozza mate....

Just an excuse to post some up-to-date pics up really. Gave the car a wash, hoover and polish today, plus fitted a few little bits I had lyin around waiting to go on mmmm Yozza! Need to get the wheels refurbished soon as they really let the car down in my...

Does it tend to happen when going over bumps? Or when turning the steering wheel?

I ended up drilling one of them out. If all bolts and screws come out easily, its a 15 minute job a side to change both disc and pads, takes longer jacking the car up and removing the wheel. It took me 4 hours do both sides tho as I was cleaning arches/painting calipers at the same time

I've ran one like that on the rear for over a year and its been ok, passed two MOTs with it too which I was a bit suprised at. Finally being replaced next week tho

There wasnt any paint on the face of the disc between disc and wheel when the wheels were put back on. I just got a bit brush happy at the time

Lol, always looks tatty once it starts to rust, just delayin it

tin of hammerite smooth, one coat with a brush, job done! Did mine at the weekend

This is only gonna go one way....lol Defo the 172, especially if your planning on going to the ring

Yes it has a lowered limiter when water temp is <85 degrees, or sum random other number i cant remember

Yeah, a LOT cheaper! I've fitted mine today aswell as brembo pads, easy enough job apart from the little b*****d screws that hold the disc to the hub

Yup! I ordered mine last friday and they arrived first thing monday morning :)

I can also confirm my yozza race system only has one hanger on the rear. Get some pics up mate

I'll try re-tapping it then, and keeping an eye on it to see wether or not it works its way loose

Easy enough to swap over?

Ye my seat isnt that worn and its on nearly 90k!

blocked cat maybe?

Also will need the cambelt doing as it doesnt mention it being done in the service information given, only the aux belt

Sport badge is on the wrong side...new boot lid...rear end smash...avoid... sorry im just being flippant, looks clean that does

Was gonna change my front discs and pads yesterday as I have nice shiney Brembo HCs and Brembo pads waiting to be fitted, but when trying to remove one of the wheel bolts it was really hard work. Knew straight away it was cross threaded and it probably happened a year ago when I had my tyres...

Nice apart from I personally think the wheels are too big?

This ^ make sure you've got them in-phase otherwise they'll be cancelling each other out. My mate had a 106 years and years ago, fitted some kicker 6.2i in the doors, which were good money at the time. Anyway, they sounded crap! At least until you opened the door wide....then you'd suddenly get...

swap injectors with another cylinder see if the problem moves?

I'm from hartshill mate. I'd like go again later on in the year but it all spends on money. Looking forward to it this time tho as its the first time driving rather than just bein a passenger

Where bouts in stoke you from mate? Theres a few of us going to the ring on April 29th

V-power is the same price as tesco 99 now round here, so might aswell use V-power if its spose to be the "better" fuel im pretty sure until recently tesco 99 was a few pence per litre cheaper
