Finally you have a reason to be here ;) It looks ok mate, would be better to get more of an idea of it's condition with a few more pics. Have you got a link to the yanoo shift kit? Sounds interesting.

It will be faster, more useable and handle better than it ever has....I can't see what's so bad ;) I'll bring it down when it's done mate you'll enjoy it

No mate they were on the car when I got them, apparently they went propper cheap

So some new parts purchased Trophy Turini's from my old Trophy #64 Trophy Dampers purchased from the mile munching trophy (Sir Daves old one) Some parts sold: Cobra Seats TD Wheels GAZ Coilovers Hopefully it will be ok on the road, may start putting all of the interior back in it over this...

I'm up for that mate, been along the helmsley road quite a few times

meet you at stanhope main square thing?

I've got plenty of bottles mate, I'm not sure, have a look. Either look for Wolfs Chemicals de-ironiser, IRON-X and I think auto finesse do something called IRON out, they're on here so might be worth asking them

If you want to get a big bottle of it I'll go halfs with you mate

I'd get 205/40/16's mate they'll be better and it should handle a little better as well. The clips are easy to take out, just get a pointy pair of crips, gently squeeze the clips together then push them out one by one. The EZ detail brushes are for when the wheels are on the car so it's...

Can't see the pics mate and not sure if you've done this but you can remove the diamonds easy enough, I did them with my old turini's and they looked really good after a few coats of polish. I'm going to buy a few bottles of IRON-X for my trophy turini's and give them a propper good clean up...

Just kidding ;) I'll be sending my 182 down in the coming weeks so they can be stable mates for a while ;)

Grab me the spoiler while you're on, I'm sure he wont need that :D

That's your problem mate, motorscope is not well callibrated at all, it reads way out, even if it was reading 20bhp over it's still a very good result. As kev says, we had plenty of plays back in the day in my old ph1, not sure if the timing was perfect on it but it went ok, kev's was a quick...

Not sure why it comes accross that way, maybe the ones who had clio's and have progressed onto better cars are very quick to slate clio's and anything you plan to do with them I think they're great cars, they have their problems like anything else, people on here are more realists than on the...

Come in the saxo with me ;)

You'll have to come up for a blast up there in the dark mate, it's so much better than during the day, I'm up for going there anytime so just shout up

Nah he works in cyprus for the RAF so the car is just sat in garage, me and my mate take it out every few weeks to keep it ticking over, he loves astra's for some strange reason, just keep telling him to wait until we get up hartside in the better weather then he can see what the fuss is all about.

Yes already spoke to Fred about it. Think my mate will get it done next time the belts are due....if he keeps it.

When are you hoping to get it back mate?

Yeah I've used paisley plenty of times, its a pain you can't dictate what time they get picked up but I can live with that

Yeah mate I pulled past him when he first got it, I just dnt think it was very well. IT turned out to have a nackered injector, so that's now fixed and the itg and de-cat have made it fly at the mid range to top end. Paul thinks with advancing the inlet cam more ponies could be had however...

No worries, I'll try not to hold you all up in my saxo ey ;)

What are the main differences between 428's and 421's regarding power delivery?

My mate has just had sams old trophy mapped again after a de-cat and ITG Maxogen. It made 183.5bhp at RS Tuning, it feels like it should have more power when on the road, I was very impressed when driving it, would've blown my old one to smithereens and that was making 182bhp at RS tuning. It's...

Whichever way you want to go I'll take you sam. It would be a bit of a treck going from durham services upto consett but we could go that way on the way back

I think that crown goes to Sir Dave mate

haha always said I'd own an RB but I Think your old car will be the last clio for me for a good few years. I'm looking forward to getting it on the road now, havent even looked at it for weeks it's just sat in the garage doing nothing

I know, I remember that as well, I guess TDF have done good bits of work etc however from where I'm sitting it would seem standards slipped as more money rolled in

Why is it that TDF etc who were seen to be the dogs danglies turn out to be experts in bodging? I dont want this post to appear that I think the sun shines out of Freds arse but I've never seen/heard of anyone bad mouthing his or the rest of the chaps at BTM's work? Why can't people just do...

Yeah I've had many 106's and saxo's in the past before I moved onto clios, they're just so much fun and you can modify them for much cheaper and see better results for your money than you can with clio's. I've done a lot of work on the underneaths of my saxo, but to look at it from outside it...
