Strange, no idea then. My car seemed to be pulling to the left while braking a while back. Quite dramatically as well. But it only did it towards the end of the braking, ie within the last few feet. I found out what it was though. My new wheels, they were just following the road down towards the...

When you say a hole, where is it? and how big? Is it a standard exhaust or a mild steel performance jobbie. If its stainless it should have a hole in it at all. Unless its been botterming out on something. If its standard, then you can get most exhaust parts pretty cheaply (for the clio at...

What mods you got mate? Paul

According to the website, it contains everything for the RT. Including caliper extenders. I will ring them up on monday and see what they say. I have decided to get them this month after all. As I got a family friend (who is one of the best mechanics I have ever seen) is servicing my car in the...

Could it be something as simple as weight distrabution? ie is there more wieght on the drivers side (odviosly, but apart from the driver have you got anything else heavy on that side)? Paul

LOL no it was quite a few years ago. Paul

Nice, I like the install. Paul

If you can prove ABP were neglagent then you have a case. Lets face it, as the copper said, there neglagence could have cost you your life. Not only that, its extremely bab press. If they refuse to even enter into the idea of a pay off start shouting about it in the local papers and forums etc...

As in Macro shops Steve? If it is them you might need to be a member White16 and for that you need a "company" ie make one up and tell them your buying stuff for it, they will give you a members card and hey presto. Paul

Before I ordered the kit I thought I would go check the old bank account. So now I will be waiting untill next month for my coversion. It wasnt a healthy site. It says the kit fits a 1.4 RT, doesnt say anything about needing anything of a valver. And yes its an old RT. But I swear I have...

There was definatly a problem. I know cos it happend to me. We are talking version 3 I think. Paul

Go to shell and pick up some Optimax in one of those small red containers. Then run your car almost dry then detatch the fuel tank. Empty out all the crapy cheap petrol and wash it out with a bit of water or something. Just plain water, I wouldnt use any cleaning stuff. I wouldnt have thought...

Well I just got back from my girl friends and I must say mine must be a slow one. Although it plowed up to 60 pretty hapliy and quickly using 3 gears I dont think it would make it on 2. My car hits 6k revs (the start of the "emergency power" zone (i would say red, but it isnt) at 50mph. Or...

Ok, well give me a week or so and I will see what I can do. Paul

Get the latest version mate. You might be able to "download" it from somewhere. Its just there was a version (cant remember which) that didnt write VCDs properly. You had to copy certain files from actual VCDs that werent being put in by Nero, and thus it didnt work properly on a lot of DVD...

Is that your car tom? If it is I like. But agree that the wheels need changing. I dont know what it is, they just dont look quite right. They look alright, just dont fit the car i think. Paul

Is the gas a few seconds after that Daz? Paul

Thats probably about right. The only reason the council lowered the ones outside my nan and grandads was because a group of them got together and formed a sort of committee. It took them nearly a year to fight it, and then about 2 months for the council to get around to removing them. The thing...

Ah haitch, I see. I will look into it. Cheers. As for the flatspot I will see what happens after the service. But saying that, its been serviced before and its still been there. Paul

I am driving to my girlfriends this afternoon (about an hour away) down some nice big empty country roads. So I will give mine a blast and see what it comes out at. I am running 15s same as you. But saying that I seem to have a bit of flat spot so I might be different to you. Paul

My nan and grandad live on a road that used to have speed bumps. It turned out they were illegal and the council had to lower them. They arent really speed bumps now, more a section of road that is lifted up. Paul

How do I check? If its in the cat that will be cool cos I am getting rid of that in a few months when I get a new full system. Paul

Your thinking of the KTR 4-Pot caliper brake kit. I am on about just the big brake conversion. Its £175 excluding delivery and vat. Its all I need in my RT really. Its got crappy brakes as standard but they should be a bit better after the conversion, you know, being nearly 3 times the size and...

sbmbailey we can get them free aswell, if you like. But only if we work together. Next time they are both going to a meet we will just happen to be going to the same one. When there I shall distract them both (and anyone else who is with them) with my lame chimp in a nappy playing the viola...

Hello, I am probably going to order the KTEC Front Big brake conversion kit thingy tommorow. Now I was wondering if I should order a FSE power boost valve aswell. I got a pretty big flatspot and its worse the colder it is. Its between 2.5k and 3.5k (approx) in the rev range. Its more noticble...

LOL Boz. I am getting a full KTEC system and decat (unsilenced of course) in a few months, and I must say that was one thing that was running around my head. Would I be able to hear my stereo. And it looks like thats a no then. Oh well, getting bored of music now a days anyway. Paul

Well if you find a good one, surely £100 is well spent on the fuel to get you there and back?

Not to be picky, but how did you get the Hill Power prices at this time of night? Paul

Ok I know we are supposed to keep it easy until cars get warmed up, but why? Is it to prevent engine wear or what? I know my car seems to eat more fuel if you acclerate to hard when its cold. But sometimes you have to to get past my imense flat spot. Paul

I was planning on getting this for my RT. They look pretty good. Paul
