    Coilovers - Lower the rear

    It sits fine. You want forward rake on a front crawler. It'll just upset the balance/handling lowering the rear more than the front.

    Fuel additives/cleaners or premium fuels?

    Just stick with V power or any premium fuel inc Tesco Momentum. They've got all the adds you need.

    Engine flush products?

    Its not as reliable in winter months on start up being thicker. No problem in the hotter months but 5w 50 is cheaper so win, win all year around.

    Damsel in distress

    It's just a bumper valance probably stuck on with glue. Something similar here... https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F182726899975

    Engine flush products?

    Just going to use a 5w 30 to flush for 1k miles, then go to a 5w 50 for track days. Not going back to 15w 50 as I reckon it was to thick for cold starts.

    M135i - Attempt Number 2

    Very nice, defo on my list of cars to own. Helped fit a JB4 to my work colleagues M135i recently, couldn't believe how easy it was to fit. We had it done within our half hour dinner break. Also couldn't believe the results for a DIY box.

    Correct OMP boss for 182 cup

    Mine knocked the traction control and ASR off as well but I think that was down to the position of the steering angle squib. I left it as I turned TC off every time I got in the car anyway.

    Correct OMP boss for 182 cup

    It wont self cancel the indicators then mate. I just dealt with it, but I know there's no chance with you 🤣

    Correct OMP boss for 182 cup

    Does it have tabs on it?

    Best upgrades for starters Clio 182

    Lightweight 15" wheels with decent tyres, freshen up the brakes if needed and decent front pads and just enjoy it for what it is.

    Engine flush products?

    Aye, exactly why I asked as I've read it can do more harm than good.

    Engine flush products?

    Do they actually work or should I just use a decent synthetic oil and do a few flushes with that? Pick my replacement engine up this week and it looks like it's been ran on non synthetic oil hence the heavy varnishing, it also has slight sludging but nothing to bad given it's on 150k miles.

    My 182 BG Road legal track car

    Looking good mate. Should shift nicely at Bedford.

    Upgrade phone with better camera - from Galaxy S7

    The camera is decent on the S9, better than the S7 that I had. Have a look at mine tomorrow. I'm using it for my track videos through Racechrono.

    Tyre and brake pad issues. Are they related?

    It won't make any difference. I ran my 182 at 40 mins total. Negative Toe also wont affect the outside, it will scrub the insides.

    172/182 vs modern hot hatches. On track....

    The difference I've noticed with most modern performance cars on track is most don't drive at 10 tenths, and rightly so seeing how expensive some of the cars are, so when you drive the Clio at 10 tenths you can keep up if not be quicker.

    Tyre and brake pad issues. Are they related?

    Good few chats with the site pro yeah, same pro who told you to run 24psi hot? I took exception to your driving at Blyton hence my erratic comment.

    Tyre and brake pad issues. Are they related?

    Pressures to low and no offense you drive erratic 🤣

    Tyre and brake pad issues. Are they related?

    Exactly mate. Look at at something like the AR1, R888, ZZR, A032, V70a, Dirreza etc. Not AD08R, NS2R 180 etc

    Tyre and brake pad issues. Are they related?

    Everything seems fine, CL5 are renown for crumbling my advice would be DS1.11. Its the tyre itself which will be the issue. RSR's are budget track tyres, so give budget grip similar to NS2R 180 etc. Upgrade to a mid-range or premium track tyre and the difference will be night and day.

    Big gay wings, do they really work on track?

    Will look at doing something like this.

    Big gay wings, do they really work on track?

    Right, instead of fitting a big gay wing I've decided to try and reduce lift, drag and improve air flow over the car. What I've noticed with the MR2 is it has a big air bubble behind the hardtop going down the rear deck as the rear window and 80% of the rear deck doesnt really get wet when...

    My first time driving RWD with an LSD

    Is this a 1 or 1.5 way? Only got a Torsen in my MR2 and with the lack of torque its rarely engaged even on track. I can imagine the MP diff will make a lot of difference on the M140.

    How do you go about pricing a track car?

    £3000 if belts aren't due and has decent history or take all the mods out and replace with standard and sell them separately. I'd take both seats 😁

    Very nice cheap M3 on Pistonheads

    Cant believe how much BMW insured warranty is.. 60k mile example is £181 a month (Comprehensive, £100 excess, no emergency service) 101k mile example is £559 a month (Driveline only, £100 excess, no emergency service)

    Refitting front struts on the 182 problem

    Just get someone to stand on the wishbone and push it down slightly.

    Brake Bleeding Woes!

    With the ignition on 1 with engine off pump the pedal till it goes solid and keep your foot on it with medium pressure for a minute or so to see if it goes down even slightly, if so theres a small leak somewhere. If it doesn't budge then its air within the system. If its air then go out and...
