Engineer 1 : Bear 0. :evil:

Then how would the bolts go in at all, Padawan ;) There's no loading going through a 10 gram plastic washer. It's just to help centralise the wheel before doing the bolts up.

Those ones you've linked aren't made by OZ. Don't waste your money. Spigot rings only help line the wheels up .. they don't have any loading going through them. Do the wheels up properly with a torque wrench. IIRC it's about 110Nm for a Clio ? Google it to confirm.. but that's plenty...

Re: dmallett's indecisive clio thread! Monaco ph2 pg1+, Titanium ph1 pg31+, PB ph1 pg Yup there's still only 22 pages. Why does anyone have it on any smaller than max posts per page :S Why is that even an option...

55 profiles ?? WAAAAAY too large. Should be 195 or 205 wide .. 45 profile 16" rim.

Does it corner the same, left and right ? Does it wander or feel skittish at all ? Stick your head under the car (jack the rear up if necessary (FTLOG don't use the Renault 'widowmaker' jack !!!! ) ) and look at the shocks. If there's any residue on there, they might well be leaking...

100% on the flat ? Tyres the same size ? Tyre got air in it ? Shocks standard parts....? They have a tendancy to leak/blow... Does it feel OK to drive ?

Nailed it ! Needs black coated fasteners though ;)

My wagon passed MOT today .. no advisories. Gold wheels are gone and it looks like this again: The BurbleBus by TheEvilGiraffe, on Flickr :drunk:

Yep .. having those wheels and some other bits for sale recently .. it's a constant stream of muppets.

Sounds like a trap.... Andy, has Luke been near this at all....?

Lo mayt. I got a old kitchen sink wot i wanna swop for your car wiv cash my way ? Can u delivr ? Fankz, Muppets ov Scoobynet

I've had my Nexus 4 for ages - camera is fine. But maybe I'm a photographical wiz :cool: Bearmobile by TheEvilGiraffe, on Flickr TBH I'm only going to stick with Nexi (?) for the next few years. Everything else seems to come with bloatware on it :(

Nexus. All day long. No - really.

I'll PM and take this off the thread haha

If you want to send me a deposit .. I'll take them off this w/e and put my winters on anyway .. more than happy for them to sit in the garage until spring if you want them :)

Hi.

The cold limit is not 5k ... if it is - you have a problem. IIRC 6.9 cold and 7.2 hot ? Something like that - only a few hundred RPM less than hot limit. Install an oil temp gauge if you're interested in that .. or consider using some mechanical sympathy and don't rag its nuts off for the...

If you've got one for an iMac, Scott.. That will work too :)

So just to be sure .. your suspension isn't showing any faults and it doesn't feel faulty when driving, but you're asking if you should change it ?

Hotmail has been complete waff for at least 15 years. Gmail FTW.

T1Rs ? Awful .. really rubbish on track and distinctly average on the road. R1R are a different story ! Depending how often you're going to be hooning on track - I'd run them all the time as track tyres. I wish I did.. I've got Nangkang NS-R2 on mine for dry days .. haven't been brave on...

2 laps of Brands and you've cooked the brakes !? I've done full days at Bedford on Pagid OEM spec pads/discs and not had an issue. Do you even need brakes at Brands ? :o Are you sure it wasn't the tyres giving up assuming they're road orientated rather than track..? Avoid Spax like the...

From a family reunion at the weekend .. this one I just like, and actually shot in B&W at the time. My dear old uncle Jim. Nicest man you'll ever meet .. managed to get him looking like some kind of dodgy east London villain. Jim by TheEvilGiraffe, on Flickr "If you hold back anything, I'll...

Nicely done !

Try that again in the snow :rasp:

Superb write up. Pictures just about acceptable :rasp: Good work :)

29th @ Snett, DavyJ ! Be there. Been a while :)

What championship(s) are you thinking of entering ?
