Yeah they are about 3 years old. I only do 3-5k a year though now, so they have done 15k max.

They werent stuck hard, but probably weren't as free as they should be due do brake dust build up. I definatley removed the shims when I put them in, but dont think I ground the back plate? I bought them from yozzasport, would they have come with the back plate ground down, or should I of...

For the last few months my 172cup has just been used for pottering around to work and back. the brakes have been getting worse and worse. I had a quick look through the wheel and discs/pads looked okay for wear. The fliud is a bit low, so decided to change fluid and bleed it through. Today I...

Anyone work for renault/have access to info on other renaults with 305-310mm discs (4 stud) which may fit?

A few years ago I had a prima racing wp pro 310mm brake conversion kit on my Clio. This included 310mm wp pro discs, wp pro pads and a replacement carrier to use the standard calliper. I didn't find them great, so when the wore out I went back to the standard carrier with brembo hc discs and...

The car has done just under 45k. I'm not sure if the fuel pump was priming, because the only time its stopped on me it started again straight away. I've filled the tank with super unleaded and am going to drive it myself for a few days to see if there are any more problems.

cheers Fred, will check it out.

....that was lazy of me... I've searched a few threads now, and believe it does have cup packs. Looks like it has same rear spoiler as my 172cup Has a front splitter Has anthracite wheels... So I guess it does have cup packs.

I've had a 172cup for a few years. My wife is on the verge of buying a 05 black gold 182. The current owner doesn't know a lot about them and is not sure if it has cup pack(s) What are the options? and how easy is it to tell what it has? It does have the darker colour standard wheels...

Sorry for the slow reply. Some of the bits you're looking for have already gone, so you'd be better off buying a complete axle off someone else. Cheers.

Relisted. Ebay removed it due to saying 'have the right to end auction early' http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Clio-1-8-16v-steering-column-very-little-use_W0QQitemZ110297108642QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item110297108642&_trkparms=39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A7%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

My brother's having another go at breaking my old valver. It's on ebay at the moment. Please ask questions on ebay rather than on here. Thanks...

Are there any tyres avaliable the correct size for an exige that are good in the wet? I know the A048s are awesome in the dry, but not so good when wet.
