    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Enjoyed reading this thread (again) ;) Few questions regarding your build as I am going down the same route. 1) Is it regulated/rules as to where the fire extinguisher jets spray angles cover? Does the engine bay need them too? 2) How did you fill the holes in the floor panel where the rear...

    Audi RS3 Sound WOW

    Great 5 pot sound there, classic. These are very rapid cars due to the 7 speed dual clutch S tronic box. http://www.audi.co.uk/new-cars/rs/rs3-sportback/specifications.html

    Why do 172 cups have seat belt tensioners

    Read up about these last night in the Haynes Manual. Interesting read. Did not realise they had gas pistons in that trigger when the car makes a sudden halt (i.e crash). Hence why they need replacing. Clever things these Clios. Funnily I have never heard of them in other cars, only modern cars...

    Why do 172 cups have seat belt tensioners

    Hmm well thats what I thought. So why did it trigger the airbag light when I took the tensioner out (unplugged wire).

    Why do 172 cups have seat belt tensioners

    If they dont have side airbags then why do the seats have them, also why do the rear seat belt tensioners have them?? I stripped my car today and had warning lights (service and airbag) put rear seat belts tentioners back in and the lights went out. Did a search on here, and a lot of good...

    The Watering Can Mod - GhettoMod Brake Ducts... Because Race Car!

    Interesting, I will be doing something very similar, I might go for a smaller diameter of ducting and mount if up close to the strut, so it has a direct feed to the discs. Only problem would be it fouling on the wheel/tyre on full lock.

    Question about catch cans on a car with ITBs

    Im looking at entering the MSV CDT ay some stage next year and want the car to meet the MSV Bluebook regs. It says if fitted with a catch can it must be minimum 2 ltrs and be clear or have a fluid gauge on the side (see through tube).

    Question about catch cans on a car with ITBs

    I would not like to say Knuckles as im still learning about the Clio engine. I am guessing if you have an open crank case breather then yes. But otherwise I would just leave it (unless you want it just for looks),however It might add 5bhp onto the Butt dyno when fitted though ;)

    The Watering Can Mod - GhettoMod Brake Ducts... Because Race Car!

    Great post, I will be using this as a guide when I fit mine. One thing I will comment on, surly that duct tape (no matter how great it is) will come loose after a few months or even at high speeds. Would securing it with cable ties to the arch liner and fog light bracket? I have a cold air...
