This was my reasoning too! Much cheaper than forking out a fortune for a new genuine one, or worse still a brand new carbon one from K-Tec..

Leaving early is always a good idea because 9 times out of 10 we'll spend too much time chatting :P

...was that you going down Magdalen Street on Friday evening?

The Powerflex bushed dogbone mount transfers a bit more noise into the interior than the standard one, but the quality of the gear change much improved although in fairness I am comparing an old mount to a new polybushed one! As for the splitter; the Skoda Fabia one is £13 ish. Secure it to the...

I've always liked the FRP - lovely car :) Any plans for rust proofing? I've had two Fiestas in the past so know about the perils of Ford bodywork!

Delicious! I now have even more motivation to get my wheels sorted, although I'll be keeping them the standard colour :)

Nice! I'd better order mine haha.

From around Norwich I would think around 9:00 ish since we'll go the scenic route to Newmarket (A140, A143 etc). Meet Phil on the way (P17 TOO) at Stratton Motor Co. then the Bury lot depending on where they'll be. Anyone got their CSS ticket yet? ;)

I meant to ask you at last week's meet if you'd had any involvement with this project Chris! :) Which areas on the car did you work on?

Bear in mind that the smaller number plate is illegal for use on the road and the rozzers have been known to issue fines to people as result!

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?562600-172-182-Guide-Cup-Packs-Spec-Info Pretty much.. It's more tricky with 182s because of the higher variety of types (standard, full fat and cup etc), but that thread should explain all!

Seconded! I used NFP by mistake but have had no troubles whatsoever, and if anything the gear selection is better than before. Maybe Opie Oils (or anyone else in the know) can shed some light on any particular differences between the two!

You probably saw us if you were heading towards Riverside at around 8:30 ish! The photo spot is on the right as you head down the new (and pointless) one way system southwards from Magpie Road.

My bro told me about this - sorry to hear about the accident! :( Such a shame about the car but the most important thing is that you're uninjured.

Nice work! Looks very fresh :)

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the feedback! :) I used a setting called 'Vivid' on my camera for most of the shots - it seems to bring a bit more definition to the colour than the 'STD' (I hope that means 'Standard'....) mode! And yeah feel free to use any of the photos (same goes for...

Here's a link to all the best pictures I took last night: http://www.flickr.com/photos/96382520@N05/sets/72157633685406958/ There are around 30, so I thought it'd better to post a link to them rather than fill a post with all these hi-res pics. Hope you like them :)

Thanks :cool:! You did a much better job than me using the panoramic feature by the looks of things; I only did a couple but both are rubbish to be honest! I've got plenty of individual ones that I'll upload later on. Great turnout for the meet - we'll have to organise another one soon & hope...

I just bought standard ones. £50 ish for the upper mount, £35 ish for the Powerflex dogbone polybush kit, and £13 for the upper gearbox mount.

If there's a fair bit of displacement when you rock the engine then I'd say it was mount related, especially if you say that the mount looks worn. There's another gearbox mount below the battery. I've replaced this, the dogbone with the Powerflex polybush kit (bear in mind that it transfers...

Weather forecast for this evening: 19:00 - white cloud 20:00 - light rain shower 21:00 - white cloud 22:00 - white cloud All in all, a great improvement over this morning's monsoon! :) I'll bring my camera along this evening, but as I'm by no means a pro-photographer I'd advise other people...

Good ol' Castle Mall car park! Did you set off any car alarms on your way around? ;)

Just to the left of the airbox - you'll see a big hose going into the housing. The picture below actually highlights the bleed screw on the thermostat housing...but it'll at least show you what to look out for :)

Time we're meeting - 19:30?

I suspect the dual clutch transmission contributes to the extra weight. After all, the engineers at Lexus/Toyota decided not to use one in order to save weight on the LFA

Pair of tights used to smoke the rear lights I wonder?

There's meant to be rain overnight on Thursday into Friday, but nothing too shoddy afterwards (light rain shower possible apparently).

Wise decision going with an original colour I'd say! Looking good :)

This is how it looks with Powerflex bushes:
