Need a thin walled 14mm deep socket. No need to take off the strut brace.

Only 5 orders so far according to Richard - again, if you have feedback - lemme know!
Do you mean 5 left or..? Surely he's had more than 5 people order on here alone.

Its a bit sad but that's what impresses me the most with the car. All my colleagues say o god bets that's awful at the pumps but its only slightly worse than there 325is and C Class coupe's.
Uprev gave me an extra 2-3mpg too!
Ditto.
It's impressively efficient for what it is!

They look good, how do you find the performance of them?
Very good. A definite upgrade over original, haven't had a chance to push them yet but general driving they are nice and sharp, even from cold. Braided HEL brake lines being fitted next month with some decent fluid so that should make them even better.
-
Wow, those are beautiful!!
-
All fitted and pretty much bedded in. Followed the Stop Tech bed in procedure which works really well and quickly.
Look nice too

Approved this but next time add the date as well
Doh! Didn't realise this, this is my first FS thread, will do that next time

Not sure if anyone will be interested in these, but they've only been on the car for 4000 miles/3 months.
Only selling as I've upgraded all the discs and pads to Black Diamond. Not sure on the make of the discs but from Googling the model number on the pads they appear to be made by 'Blueprint', so I can only assume the discs are the same make. Obviously no lip on discs or crumbled pads and they stopped the car no problems. All pads equally worn with 9mm of material which I believe is what they actually come with.
Were fitted to an 07 HR with Brembos.
Pads £20 inc postage.
Discs £40 collected from Horsham, W. Sussex or add £10 for postage due to weight.
Cheers.

QD and a microfibre, always carry this in the car!
I always do this between weekly washes if it gets surface dust on it or rain marks (not if it's heavily soiled though). I use Chemical Guys Speed Wipe which doesn't streak and also has the benefit of being anti static so discourages build up of dust. Also enhances wax and smells great!
-
Thought this might happen when I changed all the pads on my Brembos yesterday, but soaked the bolts for 30 mins in WD40 and they came out nicely. They were done up incredibly tight though and it wasn't easy getting a breaker bar in the right position to crack them.
As above, if you are drilling them out go for tungsten carbide drill bits or cobalt. I used cobalt on a wheel nut that snapped on a previous car and it went through them like a hot knife through butter.
-
Saw this just now, 53 plate with Rays and Brembos. Anyone here? I was parked a few spaces down but your car was still there when I left so you probably didn't see me.

Try Pneus Online. My tyres are £50 cheaper than Camskill for two.
-
Still looking.
-
Stock box plus HKS or Cosworth panel filter/s if you're looking for the best performance wise.
-
Brilliant, thanks for the advice guys
Hoping to do a lot of the driving Sunday morning to avoid other road users.
-
For what it's worth, that screw extraction set from screwfix is crap. I bought them for use on another car that had a sheared bolt and they snapped on first use. Bought a set of cobalt drill bits instead and they went through the metal like a hot knife through butter.

Has it done it since the service? Could be a incorrectly gapped plug/damaged plug?
-
I use Chemical Guys Speed Wipe after washing and drying and between weekly washes as a waterless wash. It's an anti-static QD and does a fantastic job at giving a great shine and also prolonging the life of wax.

Have done, but wanted some recommendations from locals. Will check them out, cheers.

I can't imagine how loud these are? I have the resonated version and to me it is bloody loud!

I'm going up to Gloucestershire next month for a little road trip with the other half and will be spending one of the days in Wales to do a bit of driving and I'm after some advice on a decent route to involve the best roads. Monmouth will be the closest place to where we're staying (Forest of Dean) so we can call that the starting point.
I know there's a yearly meet in Wales so was wondering if anyone can offer some advice on the routes used there?
Thanks.

Could be spark plugs, misfire perhaps? Had a similar thing on another car once.

I'm an idiot.
Ordered mine at the beginning of the month, love these things.
