    Rear disc ABS ring damaged

    Thanks guys. I have spoken to the seller (great communication) and they will send me a set of new discs out to me ASAP. The Packaging was awful, there was no plastic cover over the rear ABS to protect, hence the damage. Only a sheet of cardboard and some bubble wrap separating the discs. Yes...

    Rear disc ABS ring damaged

    Guys, bought rear discs, but the ABS rings are damaged on both (the rubber parts). Whether this would be from poor packaging or poor quality not too sure, but looks like poor packaging as they were rubbing against each other. I have emailed the seller, but is this something easily changeable by...

    "Modified" eBay lower ball joint fell apart whilst fitting

    He did not want to put a lot of pressure on the joint itself. Not sure if that is safe or not. I’m no mechanic.

    GRAMS SPRINGS - quick review

    Now then, I finally got grams springs and cup shocks fitted (had full FAT before). They have been on the car since July. Cost Springs cost me £160 - forgot the price for cup shocks, but I bought the Clio 200 rear cups as they were much cheaper. I paid £600 at DCC Doncaster for cambelt...

    Painting grills, trims and deffuser

    Here’s the picture, just looks better as if you have used the permanent panel sprays that are crap and fade after 10 minutes.

    Painting grills, trims and deffuser

    Satin black - done grills and diffuser. Looks very good, like brand new. Just take off, good clean, spray with primer and then satin black. Did it with bog standard Halfords stuff and holds great now two years.

    Clio 197 shape engine swap to with Megane RS 250

    No offence, mate, but why the hell would you do that to a shi*** 1.6? Get a decent Renault Sport either 197 or 200.

    What would a full belts and fluids service cost?

    I am doing mine some time next month and I was quoted £410 for water pump, and both belts (OEM) parts - that’s parts and labour. That’s DDC in Doncaster (never tried them, but will next month).

    KTR Clio 3 Rs Coilover Suspension Kit

    I don’t mind being proven wrong and I did not know that B14 don’t come with KTEC warranty, but I am sure warranty would come from Bilstein I just did not want to risk it and pay twice. At the end of the day, I wanted to mildly upgrade the suspension by getting cup shocks and grams springs.
