just to let people know my threads are fast paced unless something is going on and this week is my Mrs has been accepted into the show and shine at early edition which means i have no time to do my own car so sadly my brake lines are on hold for a while and my bike needs an mot which is lots of work too..

 

[Cliosport-carl]

I did manage to get another video sorted out for the enjoyment of the crowd

This time I didn't come off

Some good videos Carl - just soooo miffed I couldn't make it - was such a quiet day would have been good to have a blast round. AS you know, the saxo (has a 1.8 Audi TT turbo engine installed) was one of my mates.

Aiming for mid-June for the car to be ready if you are around? There is another day at Mallory but mates aren't interested in doing it again, also evening at Donno and some events at Blyton.

and another part ordered thanks to @atkin92 lets see how the UR front lower brace makes a difference.

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Quick change


And a quick clean up




just to bleed and the fronts to do

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Well after a quick run round the block I realised it needed some more bleeding which was good because I didn't get any pics of the fronts..



And after a quick drive after a RE bleed it feels lovely you don't need to be pressing so hard on the brakes and when you do it's a lovely tight feel.

Did a few things with the old girl today I went for a wet drive over to the wheel alignment place and only one wheel was out which Is always nice.. 3° negative camber all round again which is good lol and popped to work to pick up the new UR front brace which was yellow... not any more



I wanted the ur stuff to match so put it back white and I have no idea when I'll fit it because



Well it's raining

 

[Sean197]

Good stuff, you'll have to report back on how the lower brace feels.

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Good stuff, you'll have to report back on how the lower brace feels.

Having the rest of the stuff on it I dunno how much I would be able to tell but I'll see

 

[Pav]

slight improvement will be on the cards..but know what you mean..hard to feel any diff since you have the full set almost..

 

[Cliosport-carl]

I don't know how the weather will hold out over the next day or so but if its good ill get the brace on I'm at the Mrs over the weekend so ill be driving but hopefully will have the brace on to see how it feels.

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Right nice and easy job took all of 20mins



I've only taken it round the block and not much to report however I will report back as and when

 

[Cliosport-carl]
