I followed this tip and it worked a treat. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to post the pics but not sure they'll help. I can't see them, which is obviously a good thing. I used 4 of the smallest pads and fitted them to the side wall of the glass, top & bottom. https://imgur.com/a/fzcykOe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom corner each side worked for me. Tried just by the clips first but that didn't do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droptop Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Just put on four brand new Michelin PS4’s and had the alignment done. Drives absolutely superb! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tper8181 Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) The new PS4’s make a night and day difference I think they offer more grip in the wet and give more confidence on dry vs what I can remember from brand new PS2 and SS I had mine mounted on a Hunter machine as well for the first time Edited January 16, 2021 by Tper8181 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andygo Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Purchased GT3 brake cooling ducts. £3.87 each, allegedly help cool the brakes, clip onto the front of each coffin arm. Have to be worth a go at that price! Bought from design 911. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was previously running Goodyear Eagle F1's and I was never that confident with it in the wet but with the PS4's it literally feels like a different car.

Tper8181 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 I was always impressed with the brakes on my car from original purchase. Pedal was always firm. However after braided lines (some say snake oil) replaced end of life rubber hoses, my pedal is solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATE, to bleed the system I was just decanting back in again as I only had 200 ml left( own fault thought it was a full bottle, never checked before I started) so now going to do a full change out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tper8181 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 I use Castrol super dot 4 and cycle the ABS / bleed the clutch. Leaves the pedal solid and gives a smooth clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDonald Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Taking advantage of the sunshine, I washed the steering wheel and seats with Pears soap ( as recommended on this forum ). Then applied colour lock Shwartz Black ( as recommended on this forum )to the seats. Then washed the car with McGuires NXT. All very satisfactory but I'm struggling with the windscreen. I've cleaned it with Angel Wax but it's still not right. It's either tree sap or the screen is terribly pitted. I've also contacted Dent Devils as there's a small ding in the offside front wing. https://imgur.com/a/N28F095 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
