RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Piggy - 18-09-2013

not so sure on the wiper arms Confused

I would have spent the money time on something better than SOLID 247mm brakes! Exclamation

my wifes 106nad has the same brakes and I find them a bit poor in a 850kg car!


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Poodle - 19-09-2013

Please tell me thats your rears..?

Don't mind the wiper arms actually, a bit different. Be different if they'd been done chrome. lol

Got to say, think the 'ring sticker is bloody daft if you haven't been, but like you say, that's your choice. Smile

RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Poodle - 19-09-2013

Yeah man, even my 205 has vented discs on the front and that only weighs about 850kg lol.

Fair enough mate, it's your car at the end of the day, be boring if everyone had 30mm drop, clones, oem+, etc going on. Boring as feck lol.

I just brought the brakes discs for the car vented or solid there behind the wheel so u canr see em lol.... They stop me thats all i care about lop


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Curt - 19-09-2013

Venting is for cooling and performance, not aesthetics... The point is, "they stop" is about all you can say about them, just about. You can pick up 266s dirt cheap and they're a lot better.

Crack on mate as you are, if you like it, then thats all that matters Smile

RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Piggy - 19-09-2013

Theres nothing wrong with the brakes providing its not getting driven hard is there. Lets be honest a car manufacturer isnt going to fit brakes that in your words basically "dont work"
Hes doing things different to everyone else and fairplay hes not trying to make it faster therefore is no no need to stop quicker.

Domt take this the wrong way piggy and its no reflection on your abilitys but if the brakes only just stopped the car then they have obviously not been adjusted correctly...please.dont take offence buddy im just airing an opinion...lol


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Piggy - 20-09-2013

air your opinion, thats fine bud, I really dont take offence...well I did once when someone called me puggy.

Pug did quite a few things that IMO, and others, was stupid. And IMO that inc putting 247 non vented on a 306.
the 106 stops 10x better now with the mintex but still is poor when they get warm.

so you dont drive it hard...but are you saying you will never have 4 people in the car and find yourself traveling down a hill?....coz if you do, you may find at the bottom you have no brakes apart from the car in front

No i dont drive hard well not to hard an i mainly use my gears to slow me down enugh befor using brakes i hardly ever touch the brakes honestly only if its nessasery to brake i supose its all down to the drivers ability really yeh better quality brakes stop you better but then again if your brakes dont want to work then it dont matter how much you payed for em lol....


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - 306Dan - 20-09-2013

I agree with everyone about the 247's I tow a trailer with 3 karts in and have all the engines in the car and they were eerrrr yea 'intresting' at best especially round rowarhy.
One of the best things I did when I first joined oc and started ready all the projects was 266's and ph3 23.5mm master cylinder


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Poodle - 20-09-2013

If your brakes dont want to work theres a problem with them, it doesnt just happen. Driver ability cant save you from shit mechanicals, no matter how good you are. You get what you pay for, as long as you steer clear of companies like lynx anyway lol.

Im referring to them not wanting to work when they have overheated...

no lack of mechanical skills there...just crap small unvented brakes which pug found in parts bin and threw on!


RE: johns ph2 1.4... - Poodle - 20-09-2013

Brands are much of a muchness when it comes to discs tbf, I know you can get vented 247s as theyr on the 205, dont know if the offset is the same... Genuinely converned about safety mate, wasnt meaning to have a go. I had solid discs on the 106, was on the motorway when the traffic came to a stop suddenly, not a nice feeling when you dont knw its going to stop in time. :S
