    police + insurance/modified cars

    I think the most that would happen is a big fine and your insurance cancelled. They could probaly do you for fraud. Your insurance would be invalidated too so its a big risk to take but I have heard of people doing it and never getting done. To be honest though the Pigs wouldnt know what to...

    3 points and a 60 quid fine for tints! + have to remove nur

    Have they changed the law at all because those tints should be leagle. They look like a 20-25% tint which was fine about 3 years ago. I`ll try find out what the law actually is as I know someone that goes round testing taxis for their tints. I should be able to borrow the gadget and get mine...

    3 points and a 60 quid fine for tints! + have to remove nur

    The driver and passenger side front tints need to be a certain % of tint but the rear ones can be darker. Theyd have to do a test on the car to prove they are too dark! Im pretty sure the exhaust is 97db but dont quote me. I`d go to a different police station and ask them there view of the law...

    Its all about tyres...

    So what are the best tyres for a 182 I think Ive got Mitchelin pilot sports on but the grip doesnt feel the best so I could do with changing. Tyres and brakes are the last thing any one should skimp on if they tend to go above the speed limit . As above. They are the things that are gonna...

    GDI Clio 172 (ITB'd) VS Subaru Impreza vid

    If the clio can keep up with a M3 E46 then fare play Are you gonna get your car dynod? I think your cars got more power than you realise. Just join a group buy on a dyno session. Scoobynet have loads of dyno days and Im sure they wont mind if you popped along

    GDI Clio 172 (ITB'd) VS Subaru Impreza vid

    Hi, Im not douting the clios quick just that his scoob is definatley slow. If the scoob spent half as much as the clio did on the engine it would be a different story altogether;) My classic when tuned at 270bhp on the tiny UK TD04 turbo kept up easy with an M3 ( P reg 320bhp) from a rolling...

    GDI Clio 172 (ITB'd) VS Subaru Impreza vid

    Nice car. What BHP have you actually got? Have you both had your cars dynod? My last car was a tuned UK impreza and I could easily pass a 240bhp Civic type-r so Im guessing your clio must have at least 270bhp then. If not it looks like your mates impreza is a uk turbo putting out 220bhp...

    scratched disk

    I havnt used toothpaste before but when using the T-cut etc I applied as much pressure as I could and buffed the scratches off. Toothpaste is probably a bit more abrassieve so Id say start with little pressure and and then add a bit more if it looks like its not doing anything. The cd...

    scratched disk

    I use Turtlewax car polish or T-cut. It works great as Ive repaired quite a few cds using it.

    Door Pillar Covers

    Cheers, Im gonna try a numplate/sign making company on friday and see what he says. Im sure they do a carbon fiber effect and the plotter should do a neater job than my cutting out. If the sign company is no good, Ill see if I can get a template made up and if that looks ok , ill give it a go...

    Door Pillar Covers

    Hi, I did some photshopping and have decided I want some door pillar covers. Is there anywhere else that does them apart from K-Tec Racing? Their`s dont seem to fit as good as I`d like as I dont want the paint showing on the edges. Before After K-tec Is ok but I dont want the...

    My CAR insurance has just gone up!?!?! WTF????

    I tried another quote online with my extra 1 year no cliams instead of taking out the renwal and it was £130 cheaper!!! With the same company!!! Im 28, and been quoted £400-£450 full comp. My scoob would cost £600 so they doo seem to be charging a bit too much. Try These online as they`re...

    URGENT!!!! transfering data

    when you say the disc is broke do you mean its scratched and wont read? If its scratched just use T-cut or polishing wax. Ive fixed loads of Cds by polishing the scratches out.

    pay £140 for eibach's or £350 for koni sport adjustables?

    Hi, Do Clios have an anti roll bar (ARB)? If they do why dont you just uprate that so you get less roll? It worked a treat for my scoob and most other performance cars seem to up rate them too so why not on a clio?

    New car needed ASAP. Jap or French?

    My RB5 had 313bhp and was a wee bit nippier than the clio. I just needed something more mpg friendly otherwise I`d have another scoob. The insurance is £100 more than a clio so they`re a great buy. Anyone know where I can get a splitter from and how much are they new and second hand? Could I...

    New car needed ASAP. Jap or French?

    It was a toss up between this or an Accord type-R. The clios got better low down power where the Type-r has a bigger top end and needs to be dropped down 2 gears to get any where. Great car but the clio was newer and suit my driving. Im gonna miss the power of my scoob but not the regular...

    Impreza P1 vs Clio Williams vid.

    Id love a type-R but or P1 but its the insurance that puts me off more than the 20mpg.:eek: I think it was £900 FC on a P1 and about £1100 FC on a Type-R. Ideally Id get a Type-r 3dr in Steel blue and make it an RB5 wanna be. A bit sad but at least it would be rare;) If I wasnt engaged and...

    F1's or Proxie's

    I had the eagle GY eagle F1 GSD-3 on my impreza and was well impressed with the wet grip. I think there may be better tyres out there now but they`ll probably cost more. I found this place good for reviews http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/index.jsp I think this is the best...

    How Many 182's Have Recaros Fitted?

    How much is a good set of after market recaros anyway? I`ve only done a quick search so far and they`re coming up at £550 each. I guess that doesnt include the sub frame, but at least they`d be colour coded to the car.;) http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/frame-detail.asp?PAGE=/manranges.asp

    New car needed ASAP. Jap or French?

    Id love a new DC5 integra but it would cost me 14k which Im not gonna pay. I am looking out for the older models but low milage, mint ones are hard to find. Theres that many clios about if one comes up at the right price locally Ill get one of those. Ive got 7k burning a hole in my pocket and...

    Impreza P1 vs Clio Williams vid.

    Hi, Scutch. I didnt want to pay the extra £800 on insurance so I had to go for the 4 door look :( They`re only £500 fully comp so that aint bad;) Being a UK car I did need to add a £300 exhaust (Full decat) which took it to 250bhp, and a £200 VF28 turbo & £600 remap to 313bhp. I cant...

    Impreza P1 vs Clio Williams vid.

    I think Id have to disagree that the P1 is the best Impreza.... ....Cos the RB5 is :D Well when modded to 280+ its is anyway:D RB5 is the Richard Burns edition by the way. He used to be britains best rally driver untill he passed away with cancer :(. My old car

    New car needed ASAP. Jap or French?

    Hi, My last car was an Impreza so Im after somthing with more MPG now. Ive had my fast car now I need to grow up a little, but not too much:D My girlfriend hates me going fast so Its gonna get driven sensibly. I just need enough power to over take a car or two when I need to. ie on long...
