    Metal tab on Brembo brake pad

    My new discs and pads arrived today :xgrin: Two of the Brembo pads have a metal tab on them and I'm not sure if these pads have to go in a certain way. Front or back of the disk, facing the ground or towards the spring etc. The illustrations in the instructions which came with the pads don't...

    Front drop links by Blueprint

    O/S drop link is making a right racket on the car, so I think its best to replace both. Should I give these a go - http://www.ebay.co.u...=item3360b23239 or bite the bullet and buy from Dave @ Steels? I see others have used EP3 drop links although they are slightly shorter - would this be...

    Heat shield fell off today

    So the heat shield that covers the cat fell off today, well it more of sheared off. On the way off I'm guessing it's given the lamda sensor wire a good tug as the engine management light is now, to be expected, I'll flash the code later. Also on now is the battery light which I thought was...

    RSX the same fitment as DC5

    Lads, I'm working in the states just now and thought it would be good to get a few bits while I'm over. Are lowering springs and adjustable camber arms for an RSX the same fitment as a DC5? Cheers

    where does this random piece of carpet go?

    Whilst cleaning out my boot I came across this bit of carpet in the spare wheel well. Anyone know what it is and if it attaches to anything? Judging by the holes it looks like it goes somewhere but it wasn't attached to anything when I found it. Cheers

    Engine managment light on

    Engine management light came on last night and then went off around 20-30 mins later - I was on the route home. The light came on 5 mins after I filled up with vpower, dirty fuel? I presume the codes are saved so I should still be able to pull them off? I'll grab the OBD2 reader from the...
