Thanks Mark/ Tim. My anthracite set is ET43, and IIRC so is my white set of 2118s. I shall get a pic of the inside of the wheel up later.

Just looking at going back to 4 pots on my 172, and have a couple of questions. Has anyone fitted 2118 wheels over Brembo 4 pots? and if so how much did you have to machine off the calipers, and secondly do you need to run spacers to get the required space between wheel and caliper. Thanks Fletch.

Yes mate that does make sense. I currently have a k-tec stealth system (with centre silencer) and that is quite loud, and very dronny.

Good stuff, my main concern was how loud it is when sat on the motorway crusing, as I still drive it to the 'ring /track days

Was the PMS system unsilenced mate, If so how loud was it? Just trying to decide arm whether or not to get a silenced or unsilenced PMS system

Such a waste :(

I am looking to replace my ktec stealth with a PMS system soon. I like the Oreca systems( they do sound good) but they have build quality issues.

I have done around 8k with my set of RC6 pads fitted, and that included 9 laps of the ring a couple of hours around Blyton Park, and a driving trip across Wales, and still have loads of meat left on the pads.

IIRC yes.

Cheers Martin, yeah massive improvement.

Fabia splitter, and anthracite wheels?

Definitely after a set, I'll be in touch soon mate. Yes mate it's been ages since we went out for a drive together. I'll have to fit the passenger before the next ring trip anyway ;)

Long overdue update. It's been quite an expensive few months for the FletchBus, now on 152,400 and owned for 11 years! Well as some of you already know, I did end up going down the LSD route :wink: and went for a Quaife LSD. Big thanks to @NorthloopCup for not only sourcing me the Quaife LSD at...

Well spotted! Untitled by Fletcher Cox, on Flickr Momo boss, and Lifeline QR boss (expensive iirc I paid around £200 for it) brings the wheel out 50mm. I can still easily reach the stalks though mate.

Yes mate, last time I gave the steering wheel a quick clean with some warm water and fairy liquid impressive results TBH.

I would also go for 15" wheels.

Ouch!

Depends on what the car is used for. My 172 is only used weekends/ track days so 4K is pretty much one oil change a year!

Not sure it makes much difference. I personally use Fuchs race pro and change the oil every 4k.
