    Replacing Recaro covers

    Any idea if they repair the bolster foam under the fabric? Mine have little fabric wear, just feels like the foam inside is slightly damaged.

    Steering pull to left

    Subframe may need re-aligning, you could try some ridged subframe collars too, but they are expensive.

    Let me know how you get on mate. I've been told on track they perform very well.

    Your more clever than me mate, so please correct me if I'm wrong. I've always thought regardless how big the disc is, unless the pad "size" is increased you won't see any more braking force. Say for example I had 1000mm disc (unrealistic I know) combined with standard pads, the surface of the...

    Yeah I'm sure your right bud, I'm gonna do a little more aggressive bedding in later if the weather is ok. Let's see what happens after that, I'll try to get the brakes nice and hot. I could smell them after bedding in on Saturday. [emoji4] Thanks, I do love how they look, just need some OZ...

    Update: Took the clio to have the discs, pads and pins fitted today. They look fantastic, the pics can be seen below. So far, I have done around 50 motorway miles and 25-30, 50% brake pressure stops for 4 second, as instructed by the ferado instructions. So I left the mechanic early expecting...

    White Clio 200 cup pack

    Seems like you have a strong engine with that dyno mate, I'll give them there due, they have done a pretty good job of mapping the flat spot out, nice smooth graph, so does the car feel more powerful and generally nicer to drive? Glad your happy bud. [emoji4]

    Just after some advice... Exhaust and remap...

    Hi mate Firstly I will say I don't have a problem with Ktec, however I would recommend RS tuning in Leeds to remap your car. From what I hear they have a much better reputation and take a lot more pride in there work. Plus they remap just as many cliosports as Ktec so the know there stuff. I...

    :-) Changed my bottom Ball Joints

    My steering wanders slightly sometimes, but I don't have any creaking or knocking. Going to a mechanic Saturday, and will ask them to check the ball joints for play, just for peace of mind.

    resonated or non resonated???

    Miltek resonated system has a way bigger centre silencer than the scorpion making the Miltek is quieter. Both non-resonated versions will be around the same noise level.

    resonated or non resonated???

    Welcome [emoji4] The Miltek resonated system are pretty quiet, on idle they are only a little louder standard, under load the give a nice deep purposeful noise. The non resonated system is a fair bit louder, but still not asbo levels of noise. On idle its noticeably louder than standard...

    White Clio 200 cup pack

    The rear lights look smart mate, did they require any work to get them to fit or was it a straight swap? [emoji4]

    Newbie coming from R26.

    Welcome mate [emoji4] I went from a Clio 197 to a LY Meg R26 then back to a Clio 200 and I can safely say I don't have any regrets. You'll love the Clio, very different car to the Meg, but its a really fun hot hatch and the handling is phenomenal.

    Pav's Albi Blue 197T

    Ahh ok mate, I don't blame you tbh, ball joints are becoming a common wear and tear to replace on these cars. Should feel a lot tighter afterwards. Yeah I remember seeing you changed the pads a while ago. Keep them as back up the are you good pads but I can't imagine you will see a massive...

    Pav's Albi Blue 197T

    Nice mate, the pads look like they have plenty of life in them, I think mine came through today just gotta collect them as the got dropped to one of my neighbours as I wasn't in earlier. [emoji4] Let me know how you find them when fitted. Also how come you are replacing the ball joints? Does...
