Christ, what a job! bring back the mk1 please, 5 small screws and off it comes!

Got all the screws out I think, it just seems to be stuck at the a pillars?? grip it and rip it? or can someone point me at the guide as I've tried to search the guides section to no avail thanks Ben

BG 182, black wheels, parked up in bolehill near black rocks today looked tidy enough and cliosport tax disc holder :)

plymcl - buy some rc6 and see how you cope ;) I've run all sorts of pads for year on all sorts of clios and all sorts of spec, the rc6 are the first to kill the wheels that have been on the car for years on all the other pads ;) I currently have standard Renault pads, crap grooved discs, and...

George - you got it chap ;) Boom - the pics are just poorly processed chap, hence dark as hell, my laptop screen is a major let down for PP so I need to sort something. I just cba going back over them tbh for boring on the drive pics anyway. cars back on the road September so expect some...

cheers folks, I love it! :)

:cool:

great result mate, you must be loving it :)

New willy wheels and janspeed fitted recently. exhaust fit to the bumper pics first, Coops mod to get it to sit proudm, can just read the janspeed branding :)

Right, bit more progress today bought some new clamps for the janspeed and fettled with the rear mounts again. its still banging on something at the rear when I reverse but otherwise I think I've cracked it bit more tinkering and I may be able to keep the fit on the rear bumper without any...

cheers everyone, think I have enough to do on to give them a try

he had bought it, but has since removed it and decided to sell to free up cash :)

if you read back a bit its due to costing a lot for little gain, a grand can be better spent elsewhere I think is the feeling?! corking car chap btw :)

cheers for the advice folks, I think I may give some a try Dave, I've used EBC before in all 3 flavours in the turbo, dust is as you say more than manageable but I've never got on with the pads tbh

my 182 is crap, the mk 1 is epic, feel free to come for a dab out at some point in both if you want a comparison ;)

and please keep a debate about how good they are to elsewhere, i'm more interested in the original question ;)

its not so much the amount of dust as the consistency of it, basically the RC pads are just metal filings that come off the pad and weld themselves to the wheel, literally cannot get them off and the wheel turns rust coloured, nom nom. I wont be happy if something similar happens to the willy...

Considering some new pads for the 182, however I am a bit of a tart with my wheels and I don't want to shag them with un-cleanable dust are the DS2500 manageable in terms of dust? the RC6 I have on the mk1 have basically eaten my superleggera's and I don't want a repeat performance on the...

mick = leg to the end :)

I did it on a 50 quid polo once, don't think i'd chance it on a pricey lump though

as above, but thankfully only 2 hours as that's when I first noticed it!lol!

loads of FF RB 182's on the forum, I see one every morning when I look on my drive ;)

because they fell apart within 2 months of buying the car, cheap ktec quality ;)

usual 195/50 R15 fit I always use chap, a bit chunky for some but I'm not a 45 profile fan on 15" wheels, look like ribbons imo. its possible the spacers are a bit much with the et37 wheels rather than stock et43 I may have to put the car back on coilovers however to get it sat right

no one's that bothered about mark 1's as they don't own them and probably never will. they are no longer a viable option really as so few left. if I was 17 and had a 1.2 mark 2 i'd be trolling the 172/182 thread as well as logically it would be the car I was aiming to buy next to mod so I...

had to fettle about with the exhaust to get it to stop banging, and its still not perfect. i'm determined to keep it sticking out slightly on the bumper though, I cant stand the flush fit look. so far I have adjusted the rear mounts back as far as they will go and checked clearance over...

You love it treacle ;)

nice work, really need to do this to the mk1's spoiler, that things gone really grey with age and I want my carbon back!lol!

Mallory is a nightmare for it, I would guess it would definitely be an issue round gerard's

Mk1 best: power worst: rust RB best: looks worst: power
