What are ya painting ? You might not need to wet sand even when your lacquers on , just don't put too much on at once , thin coats are best cos lacquer is thicker than basecoat and tends to run more easily . Leave it a few days , more the better for the lacquer to harden and polish with AG...

Get it on autotrader mate . More people will see it .Plenty on there , i'd say your pricing was about right ...

The phase 1 is an ugly lookin' fcuker , looks wise the mk2 172's and 182's are hell of alot better :rasp:

I never had any stone chips on my iceberg 172 for nearly 2 years , 12k a year as well , until i crashed it . After the repair the stone chips started to appear . On my new 182 , got stone ships from the second week on :eek:

I had a k&n open filter on my Pug 306 S16 , had it on the rollers and lost absolutely nothing , was still kicking out 155bhp factory standard figures and that engine bay used to get as hot as fcuk . And before anyone asks , it was fitted by Skip Browns , the previous owners , not me . I...

If you can live with cup interior thats fine , i know i couldn't thats why i went full fat . Each to their own :)

I've heard good stuff about em too . I never had a problem with the old pads though on the Pug , only thing i did find on the Pug was that the disks warp alot easier than standard disks.

What don't ya like about em Vinny ? I was thinkin of gettin some for my 182 when these are knackered .

Just get haynes manual mate for the clio , they don't do em for the 172/ 182's but lots of stuff is the same . Bleeding your brakes is a piece of piece so is fitting em , and it'll save you alot of money . It should only take you 2 hours tops if you've never done it before , once you done it...

Just checked on ebc's website , yeah they are the same discs and pads , fcuk me though they are hell of alot cheaper on gsf than ebc's site . Nice one mate ;)

Are the megane pads and discs the same as the 172/182 ?? I know when i got some front pads and discs for my old 172 they were the same as the lagunas .

Had greenstuff pads and discs on my PUG 306 , the pads do wear down quick but other than that no problems with em , plus you get fcuk all brake dust on your wheels ;) Where did you order them from Day ? And for what car ??

Usual Renault interior rattles , easy to live with , some worse than others . Steering knockin on right hand full lock , can be made right under warranty , mine does it but can't be bothered gettin it sorted as it not detrimental to the cars performance , its only a slight knock anyway . Some...

I can't see em askin for id either really . You might as well give it a try .

I would imagine that they will say it is a lifetime guarantee for the car for " that " owner on the receipt . My mate had a similar issue a few years ago with a scorpion exhaust . I'd go and see em , and blag it . Tell them that your the guy on the receipt , they must have done hundreds of...

Like Stevo evo says , You won't get a straight answer off us lot , lol . Best thing to do is go and drive a couple , 172 ff's , cup and 182's with cup suspension , then make your judgement . Different colours also in the 172's and 182's . I've been driving em for over 5 years and i still...

^^^^ Billabong interior then , i know its some crappy cloth interior , lol ;)

mk2 172 and the newer 182's interior , seats , crap driving position are both the same . Having owned my 172 and 48k under its belt i can honestly say that my 182 with cup suspension and slightly wider tyres is miles better in terms of handling . Looks better than the 172 with the twin...

Heres a pic of the rear disc with the abs ring , the ring in the middle with teeth , the front discs don't have an abs ring fitted .Get your self a haynes manual , both front and rear disc / pad changing is easy .Plus get yourself a brake bleeding kit and some new dot 4 brake fluid .Castrol...

I've had a mk2 172 , now got a 182 with cup packs . The 182 handles hell of alot better than the 172 did , better suspension on the 182 , better grip from the standard michelin exalto tyres . I'd go for the 182 ff with cup packs if i were you mate .

Just spray them the colour you want , easy really ;)

Without stating the obvious , have you checked your fan belt , is it tight enough .Or maybe you have an air lock , i had one in my pug 306 and it used to get hot very quickly . Run the engine with the top off the coolant reservoir / radiator . Sounds like the coolant has seen better days ...

Definitely ain't me then , i'm about 30ish ;) but plenty of hair on my head , lol .

Standard Renault discs are fine for everyday road use imo . If your pads still have plenty left on them i'd just change the discs .

What would call it then ? What would you call say for example a magnex or prospeed ?

Fronts and back are both a piece of p*ss . Can't undestand anybody paying to have em done . If in doubt get a Haynes manual or just have a read of the ones in Halfrauds.

I keep missing the Reg number , lol , always seem to see him when i'm looking at something else . I'll have a spin round after and have a look before i stick mine away for the night . He's never waved or anything , just flashed to let me out last night . Hmmmm , what do ya call older ...

fcukin double posts , lol
