    Gearbox full of bisto

    When cold, and engine off, it should go into all gears reasonably comfortably. With what you've said, it sounds like dogbone mount's a bit sloppy, but a gearbox oil change and linkage adjustment are cheap possibilities.

    Hmm. Have the non RS's got dogbone mounts? Sounds like that could be worn..

    Gearbox full of bisto

    Check the linkage first. If it's anything like an RS, it's a hit and miss affair lining it up. Most **** it up first time,.

    Reshelling for that?! You f**king drama queen; I was expecting the roof to be caved in! f**k me, I've put body coloured tape over less and people haven't noticed! (;

    Which wheels people (pics)

    The 17's are much too big. The slipstreams are too dark.

    Is my car now devalued?

    If you hit someone up the arse, it's your fault. No questions. Doesn't matter how hard he slammed his brakes on, you should have left enough gap to react..

    harnesess getting around the seatbelt light?

    PMSL. Harnesses on standard seats for looks? Oh, my. There's a new one.

    Is my car now devalued?

    You're not obligated to get it repaired if you wanted to do it yourself. Just make them aware you're going to fix it yourself, and don't want to pay the excess, etc. Also, you can choose any garage you like to have the work done- don't let them push you to have it done any old place.

    Clio 20th anniversary £22k, insurance £1.3k what to do?

    Hmph. Too early for me, clearly.

    Clio 20th anniversary £22k, insurance £1.3k what to do?

    LOL. And you're suggesting an M5, if insurance is going to be expensive on a Clio?! No different, Buckfast.

    172 Cup Gearbox

    No difference that's big enough to warrant selling the car.

    Rear Hub Nuts

    Using the old ones is fine, matey. Make sure you replace all washers/spacers between the stub axle and disc exactly as they come off. Oh, and make make sure the nuts are torqued correctly or you'll be changing them again soon. (:

    Blue 106 RallyE

    Yeah, takes a while to get used to. So well suited for heel and toe, though.

    They're so cheap to make fast!

    172 track car

    Front bumper is gash. Got real potential though!

    Any ideas on what brand my exhaust is?

    Looks like a K-tec stealth to me? It'll clean up nicely with a bit of brake cleaner, I reckon. How much did you pay for it?

    Blue 106 RallyE

    As said, 106's have the exhaust mani on the front of the bay and inlet on the bulkhead side.

    Blue 106 RallyE

    Beware. It'll take up two full days at work reading it, but it's epic. Best build thread ever, imo. http://www.e30owners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4446

    Blue 106 RallyE

    Yep, Epic build. Still doesn't beat the E30 M3 build.

    Gear box oil change

    Some do it that way. I always use a funnel and length of garden hose in hole 2. 3 litres. Bang. Job done.

    PMSL. Yep. Written in WD40 to clean the dirt off.

    A new meaning to mopping your car!!!!

    Some kids threw ketchup all over my runabout last year. I cleaned it off with a hose and a yard broom. Paintwork was a f**king mess after, but that car cost me less than pairs of shoes I've bought in the past, lol.

    As above. Out in one piece is fine if you've got a crane.
