Nice and clean megane ;)

Hi mate, sorry should have said. It's a 172 cup drivers side shaft I had

Had no problems with my J and R shaft. Been on for months and done a lot of road miles and hard driving.

Hi all. I bought some xenon's to fit to my cup, I got them fitted yesterday but the passenger side is lose inside. Can this be sorted by splitting the light and replacing clips or is it knackered? If it's possible, where can I buy some new clips from? Cheers

Bump here... just bought a set of xenon's from a 172 to fit to my 172 cup. This is what I have, will these plug straight in or do I need anything else? Cheers

Whys that mate? Just personal preference or is there a reason? I had a certain someones ITBd clip after them and I would love another set of bodies but due to the power/money ratio I'm looking at boost. Doing some looking into it at the moment byt I may still swing for the bodies if the boost...

Bump here... My 172 cup has some anodised red solid top mounts fitted with new renault shocks and H&R springs. I think the tip mounts are the ones listed on ebay but I'm unsure. Anyways, when I hit a pothole I get a really harsh bang, could this be knackered topmounts or is it something else...

R26 needs some tyre shine:wink:

So.. the ones in the op no good then or what? :)

Maybe, they're more than double the price so ill shop about first haha

Came across these while searching Ebay... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M12-x-1-5-75mm-Stud-Conversion-Kit-for-Vauxhall-Cars-Including-Nuts-Black-/181889902927?hash=item2a597ba94f:g:WbIAAOSw42JWDTQx Would they be suitable for a 172?

Mk2 looks a lot better as said. Although id probably still take the Mk1 out of the 3. Mk3 doesn't look aggressive enough compared to the Mk2.

Thanks guys, very helpful as usual :)

Thank you! I'll get a look in the morning. On the other side of things, I ordered some Brembo HC discs and CLICK RC5+ pads so I'm looking forward to getting them on. Having had a quick look online it says the pas can cause alot of heat so some good fluid would be advised. Will the ATE superblue...

Cheers, forgot to ask how much of each ill need? Engine oil gearbox oil coolant brake fluid? ta

Hi folks, Planning on getting my mate to service the clio next weekend when he fits my brakes. Which fluids are best? Is normal Renault stuff ok or am I better getting a more premium brand? I'll need some brake fluid too, which is best for fast road/odd trackday? Super blue stuff alright aye...

Just seen this now... Morgan has sorted me out so going to get it sorted in the morning. Thanks lads!

Glad to see Andy has possibly sorted out the issues with the communication. Car looks great and I'm sure it'll be a bit mental when you get it back!

Sorry im a total dick when it comes to mechanics. What would I need to do to remove the pump and just run it on the standard rack, and do you guys know if I can get that belt in Halfords or the likes? cheers

So you've done away with the pump and pipework, using a shorter belt but still using the standard rack?

My brothers boss is a plant mechanic, he's going to have a look at the pipe for me tomorrow and make up a small pipe to join it all together but I need the pipe out to take to his workshop. Ideally need the car tomorrow to save me getting the train to work for the week again and being stuck in...

Have to use my phone to upload these. That's where it was lose and I couldn't tighten it, it was proper solid. tried today and when I went to tighten it, it gave way and because of the force it bent the pipe and the pipe broke so I'm left with broken end of the pipe.

aye ive got the fitting out of the pump but ive snapped it off the pipe so need the pipe out now :l do I need to take anything else off/out to get it out?

I need to remove the pipe running from the pump to the... steering rack I assume? fitting on the pump end of the pipe is ruined so need the pipe off to get it replaced

don't lose it if you don't have it to start off with :P

bumping this.. im still struggling with this. Can anyone tell me how to remove the pipe? Need to get it off as early as possible tomorrow to see if I can get it repaired

We need to get some drag races done with standard vs low boost so we can all see the difference

Ahright.. just a normal cup so ill need the proper pipes then. Guess thatll be the car parked up for a few weeks then :/
