    How Much For 172/182 Brake Pads?

    £40 or so new I'd say £20 but most people on here unnessessarily upgrade to DS2500's etc so don't bother with the franky superb (IMO) stock.

    Do cheap chips work?

    IMO only get a custom made remap I don't like any of these ebay chips. Don't forget to add on the that you need to get an electrical expert to solder in the socket to plug the new chip in on the ECU it won't just plug strgith in so thats extra money. ou could try soldering it yourself but...

    4 pot options (182)

    I agree nothing wrong with none dust sealed realy just need to maintain them more check them for rust and maybe rebuild them ever one to two years but the parts are cheap. I'd personaly always buy dust sealed as I'm lazy

    advice please

    Strip it to nothing then throw the spax stuff in the bin and stick stock back on or spend a load of money on decinet suspensin. Then get some decinet tyres and learn how to drive the car to its limits safly.

    Leak

    Coolent shouldn't drop at all check the rad and the pipes for holes. If its a 172 the washer tansk can crack and leak new ones the only real fix. IF not check the connectros on the tank.

    Not to difficult.

    ds2500 vs greenstuff

    Are your 310mm pads just via a spaer don't forget as 280mm disks ar a different size and won't fit right unless you have the right carrier etc or whatever they used to make the big disks work. Personaly I'd go with ds2500 only realy. They do squek a bit but nothing much depends how picky and...

    Only way to be sure it to measure 99% of the time the mk2 phase 2's are 58mm then the Mk2 phase 1 usualy 52mm for the 1.2 1and 1.4 54mm for the 1.4 and 1.6 and 58 for the 1.6 16V

    New parts required.

    I'd always chnage both bearings at once they do wear about even assuming you don't play hit the curb. As for shocks personally stick with stock or go to expensive stuff ie H and R preferably coilovers.

    Advice please??

    Yep Brians right. Pumps have on very rare occasions had bad connections or got stuff stuck in them but then shows up as not starting at all or yuou could tell it winns, or very limited power.
