I'm short on the Filipino's at the mo, possible Thai instead? I wouldn't of thought it would be necessary to polish em' with SRP since they're brand new?

New multispoke wheels purchased. Yet to fit. Will they need coating with a wax before they go on? Using Swissol Autobahn on my current wheels with good results. Worth applying something as well as the Autobahn? Also any particular tool available to help with the cleaning process of...

Surely when coilovers are fitted this can be dialed out?

Sounds like I might be in for the same sort of treatment? Tripod? What's this about?:S

Standard at the mo. Will be changing to H & R's later in the year, only planning on 20-30 mm drop all round. Hoping they won't rub.:eek:

^ Ah, I'll avoid the 423's then. Perhaps a lumpy idle and surge of power later on? I was advised to run an Omex item when speaking to GDI with their cam package on offer. Was told the o.e.m. item will do the job, but to do it better with more fine tuning the Omex is the item of choice. Cam...

423's Whats the difference between these and the 420's and 428's?

Sounds good.:) Rough b.h.p. with the mods I mentioned earlier?

Waiting to find out when I purchase tyres for for my SuperTurismos. Had no choice but to buy the wheels in e.t 37.:eek:

Thanks for the info.:) 420's it is then. Do these respond better with an aftermarket ECU, such as an Omex item, or just as well with the standard o.e.m. item re-mapped? Bearing in mind the car currently has a BTB full system, Yozzasport de-cat and an ITG Maxogen filter. The car has not...

Greetings and welcome Lisa.:) What part of Essex are you from may I ask?

Thanks for the info gentlemen, appreciated.:)

^ That method does have it's advantages. I used Event Tyres to fit a couple of Exalto's. The mobile fitter scratched my wheels, not pleased at all :mad: . Wouldn't use em' again.

^ Thank you. I did read a little about a group buy on these items. Damn should've taken advantage. Are you using them? Are the o.k. to use with standard and modified dampers?

I'll probably save a little and use Cat cams if difference is minimal. What sort of profile should I be looking at? May do the odd trackday here and there but the car is mainly for everyday driving. Don't want anything too lumpy on idle. Looking for reasonably smooth torque curve through out...

^ I presume these are far more expensive than the Cat items? May I ask why this is your choice?

^ I used to use Elite many times in the past. Found their prices pretty reasonable. Though I'm about 40 miles from the A 13. Only round the corner for you? Still worth contacting for a quote though. Thanks.:)

Thanks for the info D4ve.:) Solid top mounts? I'm not sure I've heard of these. Could you explain their function and performance gain? Cheers.

Looking at upgrading the cams soon for my 182 Cup along with inlet matching and a re-map. I've done a search, so I've a rough idea of what sort of price to pay and what sort of power to expect. I'm quite tempted by GDI's cam package, including matched inlets and a re-map. Good price also...

Indeed it is. I own it now and fitted to my Clio with a de-cat, sounds superb!:)

^ Thanks for the info.:) No mailorder availalble I presume?

^ Thanks, I really hope so.:) Not planning on anything less than 20-30 mm drop with the H & R's later this year. Though a few on this thread have told me they'll rub. Don't fancy having the arches rolled.:eek:

Looking for two pairs of Eagle F1's in 205/45 16. I'm thinking it's probably Black Circles or Camskill. Anyone else know of any others that are cheaper still? Thanks.:)

Looking to buy decent strut braces which do the job effectively. Just wondered what other's opinions are on what type to use? Not used strut braces before, wondered whats involved in fitting? Lastly, price and where to buy from? Comments appreciated.:)

About three years back, using Green Stuff. They may have changed by now, not willing to spend to find out though.

^ Anyone?

Personally despite popular opinion I wouldn't chose Ferodo DS 2500's which would seem to be the popular choice for your driving style. I've fitted them recently. Although they are an improvement in some areas, but not in others. Do NOT buy EBC. There's a reason they're cheap, they're not too...

^ Thanks for both replies.:) I've used motul equipment before, no problems. The difference between these products and dot 5 or dot 5.1 is???

I'm a little dubious about these pads. Had a bad result when I used a Meguiars Yellow foam item.:(

The wheels have arrived, though because 16" x 7" SuperTurismo WRC has been deleted, the only one's left were in e.t 37. So I took the plunge and bought em'. I plan on using H & R coilovers at a later date will I get away with a 30 mm drop or will it have to be 25 or less?
