Seems that now it can use the whole filter where as before the one end was quite tight due to the raised plastic...
I currently have brembo HC discs and pagid blue pads (lots of meat left).
Whilst under some heavy braking the other day i got serious brake fade.
Can someone advise me on what to do to help stop fade apart from ducting.
maybe different discs?
Right after fitting the H&R replacemants i need the camber etc setup
Can some one tell me the correct CUP oem setup as the garage doesnt have a clue and just thinks its a normal FF setup
Have been at autosport the last few days and near our stand there is a company called probolt selling snazzy looking anodised bolts

172 Cup rear bench
Only wondering due to wanting to fit them to match my trophy recaros , but didnt want to increase the weight too much.
Im fed up with the whole car looking gleaming then the horrible plastics looking grey
So what im wondering is would paint last (stone chips)on the front plastics? is there any high strength laquer?
or could they be wrapped ?
Im looking at doing them matte black ,standerd colour looking...
Am i rite in thinking that 172 cups (without side airbags in the seats) do not need resistors when fitting aftermarket seats retaining the seat belt pretensioners?
my airbag light is on but this could be due to either the seats or the aftermarket steering wheel (has resistors not sure what oem...

tried fitting my itg maxogen today and it wont fit
looks like the battery is to big
what is the standered battery on the clio as i have a 065 on there and its massive
how many pleniums are there
i just tried to fit my matched inlets , bottom one is fine
but top wont line up = 3000rpm idle speed
also has a extra spout on the back (blocked makes no diff 2 idle)
so how do i know what its off originally
also how much is a matched plenium worth?
