Exactly what mine does ^^. Only sounds tappety when idleing once its hot. Thinks its pretty normal, I'm not too worried

I thought they only came in silver

The other Cup pack gets you a larger rear spoiler and black 'splitter' IRRC

Hmmm....might be time for some new fronts then. Theres around 2mm left on them I think. Thanks for the tip :)

Yep mines starting to tramline more at the moment coupled with less front end grip in the wet. Think my tyres are on the way out. Thing is they're a fair way off the wear indicators :S (Conti's btw) Echo comments on taking it easy on the shitty roads at the moment!

Follow edde's guide ;) I used it the other day - very good

Hang on - non members can post in this section, can't they?! :S

Option 1 gets my vote. An Elise is a car I'd consider upgrading to. I was toying with the idea of learning to ride and following option 2 last summer. Changed my mind now - think I'd kill myself on a bike! :S

The owner of the car in question PM'd me this below, as he's a non-member and can't post. I thought its only fair to let him have his say. I'll let everyone make up their own minds on this one. Barry said: hows it goin mate i own the car in question, it was rolling roaded at east coast...

Hmmm.... You sure they're not just freakishly inaccurate RR's? You say Chris n' nic's made 190+ with an exhaust only - is that the same car in MarkM's spreadsheet that make 195bhp with remap, decat, and IK on top of that exhaust? Surely all other those mods gained more than 5bhp?! I agree...

^^ Spot on (for low milage, good condition) Higher milage I'd say £5.5k

I'm sorry but 186bhp from a standard 172 engine is very unlikely. Most 182's don't make that! I agree that some 172's do match or make more power than 182's. Mine matched a 182 for torque at the same RR day (156.3lb/ft - although mine does have exhaust and sports cat). Some of its down to...

Some dyno's are completely bogus

That just looks so sweet tucked away in the garage :cool:

Cups usually make the quoted power ;)

Or 169bhp even. 172 PS (French horse power)

Not that much quicker :nono: Must have been that Fisher Price RR ;)

Ooof! Shitter mate. How ironic you were on the way to get the paint sorted! (sorry to point that out again...)

Thats a good 'un! :lolup:

Rich's - Ph-polished

Hang on! - You own an NSX? Nice pics btw :cool:

LOL I was waiting for that

ditto

Ha ha!! I like that one :approve:

I bought a filter from Renault a couple of weeks ago - looked the same size as the one I took off. I'm no expert though (first time I'd even seen an oil filter tbh!) so I might have missed a subtle difference.

My local dealership told me they don't sell it a couple of weeks ago. (Thought it was a bit strange at the time - I was sure they used to sell it) The guy said they only supply oil in the workshop (for oil change I guess) not from the parts department :S

Ah, cheers fellas! :D I new V was to do with speed rating, just assumed the number after was related to it

Both Michelin PE2's: 195/45 R16 80V 195/45 R16 84V What do the differing 'V' numbers mean? :S 84V is slightly more expensive. They are both available from My Tyres

A little tussle on the road proves nothing.

Ren 5 Rally car (no idea of proper name. Its on GT4 and rocks!!)
