So I ended up unlucky with the OZ F1 Lottery. I'm looking at getting them made true, and refurbed at the same time. So far I've contacted Classic Coatings at Grantham (although this is powder coating and i'd have to get the centre caps matched somehow) and they believe they could do it.
Does...
So my cars getting the air removed from the abs pump hopefully tomorrow, and then I need to go straight somewhere and get it aligned as I've changed TREs, ball joints , shocks, springs and steering rack bushes. Which is likely to see it a fair way out.
Ideally just want somewhere to get the...
So today my parts arrived
However they look a little odd like there's something missing? Am I supposed to change over a bit from my old shocks to the new shocks?
Also, I have cooksports on the way due to a snapped spring, along with spring compressors. Do I fit the springs before I swap bits...
Is the best bet for selling this via eBay?
It needs a new disc drive / laser as it has issues reading the disc sometimes ( although barely ever fails with Fifa 14)
CEX offer £32 for it working, or £50 trade in but if it happens to fail reading a disc then They won't want it. It seems fairly...
So I'm going to rebuild my brakes all round. I reckon I've got a problem with at least one of my rear wheels not rotating freely and I believe one of the slider pins is worn on each side at the front as there is sizeable clearance on each one.
Reading about the bigg red kits are fairly good...
The mother in law is after some quotes for sorting some "building" work.
The last time she looked someone up off the internet she got ripper off IMO, so thought I'd ask on here.
So anyone got anybody they could the recommend whom does decent work?
Specifically she's in Beeston for the area...
So the insurance renewal is due for both of our cars.
Unfortunately I had a 50/50 accident on the Mrs policy last year, so both of us are stuck with a claim each.
The wife and I both need Business Class 1 on her car to cover us for driving Children about when she's Childminding. Currently...
So, I had a miss fire in January, replaced Leads and Coilpack. Fixed!
Coming home from work on Friday I had an occasional miss fire when I was in high gears and low revs (circa 2k rpm)
Took a bit of a longer route home to see if it would resurface but it didn't really. Thoughy nothing of it...
Cleaned relatively thoroughly, I won't say detailed because theres some bits that really should have been done better :o .
Still took me like 5 hours :dead:
Order was:
Rinse with Pressure Washer
Clean wheels with AF Imperial and AG Clean Wheels (Imperial really wasn't getting rid of caked...
Having my belts changed today and he's found this!
Aux belt support bracket.
Has anyone got one? Or know where to get one without going via stealerships?
So having read through a large proportion of threads along a similar vein, i'm going to put my problem down, and whats been checked.
Its mainly when accelerating, but will happen at relatively low speed on camber changes, and big pit holes. It can pull either way, but its fairly strong...
So posted asking about my RS tuner reading misfires, connected and says no faults found. I've still got a misfire?!
Any ideas apart from changing random parts?
Developed a Misfire on my 182, will an old style RS Tuner still work as a fault code reader?
Will it pick up most/all the codes for a misfire (e.g faulty injectors, coilpack etc)
Typical timing when I'm just getting ready to be able to drive it again after my knee op! Hasn't been used much...
So searching on e-bay and google there are a wide range of kits available for the front calipers for refurb.
I believe I need a kit with 2 new sliders in (at least) as 2 of them have a bit of play within their holes.
Can anyone recommend a kit to get in specific, and where to order from...
Main reason for asking is I think mine is out.
Standard suspension, not been touched.
Everyond raves about the Hunter Laser alignment machines, but I have no idea how adjustable the Clio setup is. Is it really worth heading to use one of these machines without any mods?
If so, can anyone...
Now I've had a search under the same statement as my title, but got a specific question.
So far stripped the front drivers side brake to check as theres some uneven brake wear. Its visible on the pads, and you can feel it on the disc. We cleaned the carrier and caliper up a bit when we changed...

Thought it was about time I put up a project thread, to track what I've done for myself and so you lot can see what I've done and give your 2 pence! This is a long term project as its my daily, and I have 2 year old son and a house to look after ;)
So, bought my 182 Cup in June just around my...
So checking the oil this morning, looked down and saw this
So had a bit of a hunt round and found this
Now I presume the cable from the second photo goes into the socket, but not sure as I didn't unplug it, and have only had the car a couple of months. one issue is the connecter on the...
Thought I'd get this thread started to see if it theres people interested and I have a spare 5 mins!
First question is do we need to book? Only been to Hooters in the US a while back so fcuked if I can remember.
So 10th september was banded about in the other thread, 7pm as per usual. At...
I'm beginning to think we haven't sealed the joints very wellbas I'm getting a fair bit of noise.
Bought a Miltek from roadrunner motorsport in nottingham. So we had the centre section, a backbox and then a fitting kit:- 2 flared ends to fit into the centre section, to then clamp to the cat. I...
Morning.
So whilst fitting my Miltek I found my exhaust hangers to be completely fcuked. The exhaust also doesn't sit right.
Question is I've had an idea to get the positioning right, and make the mount more sturdy, but I don't know if it's a good idea with my limited experience on exhausts...
Just failed my MoT on my exhaust, original has died it seems :(. The mot officially expires on Friday so I need a decent new exhaust by Friday without paying massively over the odds.
If someone has a standard exhaust in good nick that would do, or knows somewhere that might have a decent...
They might be on here, looked like it had a fair bit sorted on it!
Presume you were parked up to watch high marnham's towers go down like I was. Parked nearly next to my inferno!
What wheels did you have on?
With Brembo HC discs, which would you choose?
They're the same price effectively from different sources so not sure what to do, especially with my limited experience.
Will be used mainly on the road until next year when I'll be starting track days!
