Cheers Oli, emailed a few local places and if they dont respond then I will call J-tech.

Sounds like a good plan ! what would go wrong? im sure I watched a video of some guy with a golf that polished his deep dish wheels with this method.

Im a bit stuck at the moment. I need somewhere that would be able to use a lathe to take 2mm off the diameter of some brake discs. I have tried to google everything I can think of but nothing is coming up. Ive got some 300mm discs and some 4pot calipers and mounts which are great but there is...

Cool, have a look in the south central forum section, its at the red lion in kidlington.

You must feel great with that amazing saving. Definitely going to get in touch with Neil in september.

Thanks mate. I had some other 16mm spacers I used instead. 25mm ones would have been too much and would have needed to raise the coilovers much more or cut the arch liners to stop the scrubbing.

Something i use thats quite good is whatever google Siri is , I just say "set nest temperature to 20 degrees" and it does it.. Danny is right, there are minimal options to play with but its good how clever it is, the fact it downloads weather reports and then uses that to calculate how long it...

Id like to know this too. Ive been using Bilthamber wheel cleaner http://www.bilthamber.com/car-cleaning-and-degreasing/auto-wheel-110 but am guessing there is better/cheaper stuff.

less than £500 for B14s: Below are the links to the 54mm(172 and 182) and 60mm(cup and trophy and cup packed 182s) ones . 54mm ones part number ( 47-087750) : http://www.mk-fahrwerkstechnik.de/B...I-BB0-1-2-CB0-1-2-20-16V-Sport-CB0M-47-087750 60mm ones 47-217706 ...

That would drive anyone mental !

I would probably attack it with paint stripper gel /graffiti remover and then use a pressure washer point blank range. Sand paper or wire brush will affect the finish so stay away from them.

What is this out of curiosity :

Do i need to bleed the rears if I am only touching the front calipers?

Any chance you could link to a guide of how you do it, where to buy the stuff. Also where did you do it, would it f**k your bath tub up if you did it in there. Forgot to say they look amazing, really quality job there.

Im going to be swapping my calipers for some new ones on my 182 and wanted to check that what I am doing is right: -unbolt old caliper and carrier and leave the braided line connected, placing it on something so the line doesnt tug. -remove old disc and fit new disc -fit new caliper and pads...

Always thought the reason for discs warping was because like you say after stopping from braking hard repeatedly and leaving your foot on the brake once stopped, because the pad is left on the disc, the disc cooling is not uniform as the heat transfers from the disc through the pad and into...

Same here....

New one looks great, whats the plan for buttons on it? Finally fitted my Bilsteins yesterday with the help of @gambit. Almost 5 months after buying them haha - think you fitted yours 10 minutes after receiving them. All went well and they look amazing. Havent had a chance to properly try them...

Wont painting the letters in orange be really hard to get right and hard to stop it running. This might be better than paint --> http://www.staples.com/uni-Paint-Markers-Orange/product_500983

Holy s**t that thing is fast on the straights!

There are places that fix wheels that are buckled. It can be pricey depending on who does it though. If it is only a small buckle then most alloy wheel refurbishing places would probably do it for £15 -£30. For a slightly more damaged wheel it can cost up to £75. This place is good but oh so...

How much were the new original badges? really want to order some myself.

Mine came from Austria so not sure....

If this helps they will fit into a pallet box , i reckon they will be 20 - 30 kgs for both.

Also worth checking that the parts above in yellow havent snapped. I have seen these snap quite easily and worth checking by getting your fingers under and gently lifting to see if there is any separation.

Sounds good to me...THANKS!

Thanks for the reminder, need some too ... dont know how many you ordered but if you or Dan want to sell me some please let me know.

Think that panel speaker is for sat nav clios . most dont have it.

Cool if it does properly check out. I bought 2 brand new Recaro Trendlines off some guy in austria and had them sent here in a crate, never been more nervous in my life ! They did eventually turn up though and am well happy. Also ordered my coilovers from Germany and to be honest was a much...

Love the cage and seats !!
