What other rear pads apart from a good standard pad are there for fast road use?
I have M1144 front pads,Braided lines all round with Castrol React Performance fluid & standard rear pads,they fell good to be honest with a firm pedal all the time.
I didnt like them at first but now there on the...
I didnt like them at first but now there in the 182 they seem to work better or could be just down to better brake fluid & having rear braided hoses on the 182 than to the cup which just had front braided hoses & pagid fluid🤷🏼♂️
To go along with the M1144 or just match them like for like?.I guess most maybe put off by how much & surprised and how much uprated rear pads are.

If using Mintex 1144 pads on the front,for the rear its good to also use M1144's?.would this even things out than just having standard pagid pads on the rear?
Ive moved away from Megs Tyre Gel,as i find it flings to much crap up the side of the car & can attract some dust.
So looking for a nice dressing that's not to glossy,i guess with endurance not to worried as the car gets cleaned on a reg base.So just wanted to see the lastest recommend products.
After the 205 i got a Mk1 Golf Gti campaign & had the engine rebuilt along with a full body respray,it was the 1.8 engine.
Found one more of the 205 also.
My first Proper Hot Hatch was my 1.9 205 Gti,loved that car & still one of my top fav cars,I think they have one of the best profiles side & back on a car.
Only pic i could find of it
Current is my 182
Yeah good place just crap to get to & hardly any room for parking.
Yeah we have accommodation all booked up & not heard anything from them yet but fingers crossed it will still happen,its not till sept time we go.
Are the oe lines not green?.i would just go black mate.No point in Carbon or colours if to be honest as i guess its not going to be a mint show car your after? @RustyMojo
Little update,i fitted the new geo kit this morning,was not to bad of a job & brushed the bearings with a coat of ACF-50.
Once all done i had time to pop down to Tyre Smart to have the Wheel Alignment done,i obvs took it easy on the way there as alignment was well out.I got it set up as a fast...
Nice to see another Titanium build thread mate & engine bay looks good,im doing the same kind of colour combo on mine.
With the interior sticky parts,best bet is to replace them with non sport items.Exactly the same but without the sticky covering,ive done all of mine inside.
