Ive got loads i bought far far to much for Mrs's car, HOK is amazing paint, im iching to do some wheels in it.

Thanks mate and to everyone else for the nice comments :), the Mrs's shall be along shortly she says, to just her orangeness.............i just spray as im told lol

Yep if im still doing it, which is VERY likely as ive got all the kit now............. Price depends what your after, options..... 1. Bare metal respray of the wheels........£20 per wheel + whatever we agree for painting. *** Heres one im doing now to show the bare metal starting point...

Ones the air intake for the beast of an engine :)

The "Pumpkin", as neighbours are calling it....... Right peeps, before you get excited, its not a Clio Sport unfortunately, but i thought id share a "little" project ive been doing for the last few months (took this long, due to waiting for paint from the US for 2 months). Its a Smart ForTwo...

Might aswell buy a Clio 172 cup over a 200cup then.......

Its only worth comparing if its actually close in specs and performance........the RS500 has atleast twice the torque of the 200, this is the true measure of power, BHP is just a made up figure. For instance, all dyno's measure torque, then approximate BHP at the fly / wheels.....BHP is BS...

+1 , Clio 200 cup , 0 - 62 6.9 seconds ...... ~15k Clio 172 cup, 0 - 62 6.9 seconds........ <~5k minte

Thats the same logic as buying a clio 200 cup over a 172 cup.....for......what half a second on a track quicker maybe??? an extra how many thousand?

What a load of BS you cant compare the two cars, the RS500 is more expensive, over twice the power ,of course its loads quicker, hideously quicker in a straight line, there not even in the league, even a normal RS would eat a 200 cup for breakfast. We would all buy the RS500 if we had the...

Can't wait to see end result, subscribed :)

Excellent in the dry, ok in the wet. I always buy T1R's excellent value for money.

How anyone can say Toyo R888's or toyo's as a whole are "s**t" is beyond me, clearly a muppet.

???????/ your dip stick MAX - MIN is 1litre..............????/?? 2litres?

I wouldnt lower it, leave it as it and enjoy it as a new car!. Few years on , let the modding begin.

I have to say, i like that alot, shame its not say 170+ bhp, then these would be fantastic cars.

ball joint, which is whats linked above by initial thread starter, couldnt see anything for wipers as such...........whoops, but it worked.

mate, i got the same Lazer tool, i had to force it to fit, but it worked. NOW ive found why my wipers are jammed to buggery i need a new motor! lol....

The search for the win, im having this exact trouble, gonna give this a go :) Picking one up tonight!........my wipers have jammed completely in upright position and its blowing fuse.

Probably just hung on the p*ss? lol

Just ordered 6L Motul 300v 5w40 from the oilman, ive been using halfords stuff and it seems to consume it at an alarming rate, so hopefully a good oil will sort it out. Will this grade be ok in my Toyota Supra TT aswell? (just for a top up) (its BPU)

Ive done it twice so far (sport), you need spring compressors (<£20) for dismantling the original suspension (as you need the bearings for the fronts) , but not for actually getting it off the car. However if you've got brand new bearings (not needed imo, i used the old ones).....no spring...

That is one nasty ass half ass blue.....

If theres room, you can knock a sh*tty bigger socket over the top and use an impact wrench, not tried it myself but ive been told multiple times this works.

If you spray it, IMO you need to prep it really really well to remove all the pimples, as it looks so sh*te if there left in and painted over the top. In the sun they just look GASH! 1. Prep so is smooth as a babies arse + some. 2. "Show it " a decent plastic primer..... (Show it, as in not...

I had a intermittant misfire at 1.5 - 2k rpm on load, i changed the coils, cleaned TDC, cleaned throttle body etc etc no change. What it turned out to be was the plugs, i had changed the plugs several times before and still the intermittant miss fire (which could be very pronounced at times)...

Sounds the same, just louder......and a b**ch to MOT now.
