Have a look at KTECs kits. I think they do a lowering kit (shocks and springs etc) for about £200. I would go no lower than a 30 mm drop. Its just enough to get rid of the gap of most cars and it wont f**k up your handling or create any extra (noticble) wear. I also think that cars that go too...

Does it make popping noise on all cars? or is just the Valver, cos I really want that sound but I only got an RT. Paul

Have a look at the website, but I am pretty sure that for every model they make a de-cat for, they make a silenced de-cat. Paul

I got 15s on and dont get any rubbing. The place I got the wheels from said he had fitted a few 16"wheels to RTs with no rubbing. But I cant see how I could have fitted 16s on mine cos the 15s are pretty close. Paul

Ah right. So i can have an induction kit then, good. I am glad cos i am going to be hitting the mods this summer for the first time and an induction kit was on my list. Paul

Are you saying I cant fit an induction kit to my 1.4 RT? Its from 91 and is only a single point injection. And whats an ECU? I thought that was the thing that controlled your engine, ie what you got chipped. And I know they sell chips for my car. But mine also doesnt have a choke leaver, it does...

I dont have power steering, and I also dont try and park in stupid places like on a busy street. Car parks are for me, and those spaces at the end that no-one parks in is where i usually go. Plenty of room to park and no-one tends to open there doors on you. Only drawback, thiefs tend to go for...

Well Co-Op werent the cheapest. But after Tesco (who I was with) started screwing with me with my alloys. I didnt have them on, I told them this, but I wanted a qoute with them on. They did it, then told me I had to pay for them now. I said I didnt have them on, but they said that once it was...

Do you make "special" videos of you and your Saxos exhaust and sell them for £4.99 at your local car boot sale? But odviosly sell them out of the Williams as the temptation for a live show would be to great? If not, you got a twin! ;) And by that, does your Saxo get bored easily aswell?...get...

Go with Co-Op they dont charge for exterior mods. That also goes as far as exhausts so I have been told. Paul

Paul172cup when the dealer rang you should have said something like "They havent set off the...god there isnt time, I will be there as soon as possible, just dont go near the car!" Then when you got there you should have looked really concerned at the dealer and shouted: "WHERE ARE THEY?" when...

Lovely, is it safe? Oh and zed, what audio codec are you using on those vids. I downloaded them, but they have no sound. Should they? Paul

You thinking about selling 172 man? What you going for if you do? Paul

Zed, whats a 10k boost run through? Paul

Hey you look to be zipping along there RT owner. Is it a 16v RT or one of the old 8vs? Got any mods? And how fast where you actually going anyway? Paul

Its a 91 J reg. Its 76.9 here i think. Maybe yours has a bigger tank. Does anyone have the problem of the fuel gauge just taking a random guess at the fuel level? It seems to go through it really quickly and then sit at a 1/4 level for ages. Then after a bit of sitting there, maybe a few days...

WHAT? £28? I can fill up for £22 and thats on a virtually empty tank (just before the light comes on) But usually under £20. I worked out what mine does, doing a variance of driving styles and different types of roads. Over the entire fuel tank it averaged at 48.5 miles per gallon. And thats...

Well I got a manual RT and its a fine first car. Its also a J reg, but it was considerably more than 300. It had only done 40k the other year and was well looked after. Never had a problem with it, it never breaks down, always starts first time, never cuts out or any of the other problems that...

You should have dragged him into the house. hit him on the head, and when he came too have tied him up with chicken wire. Pointed a gun into his face and said "Wheres my family you b*****d, what have you done with them?" and have just watched him crap himself. Probably got you into trouble. But...

I am strongly thinking about the GTT conversion, just wondering though. If I do get the conversion and then an exhaust, do I get the clio one, or the R5 one? The bore will be a match for the R5 but the fitment to the car might be wrong. I was thinking of the KTEC beastie, so they could probably...

Ok I am very interested, I just sent you an email. Paul

Right now I have just found out I am in not going to get into trouble with the police, my car had been targeted and the people on this forum have been very suportive. My name is Ben P, and this has just been the longest day of my life. :cool: Paul

I always thought they were slow compared to most 1.4s. Paul

All I was mainly meaning was this: If your mate is sitting next to you there is really only 2 ways of them knowing when you hit 60. Its pretty odviose when you start rolling (even though they will probably be a few hundreths out and then a couple more to realise that your moving and take the...

Well happy birthday for yesterday before it becomes 2 days ago. Paul

If your talking about Tony Martin, the main thing that gets me about that case (something that never gets talked about) was that his shotgun was unlicensed. ie illegal. So he shot someone with an illegal firearm. Thats breaking the law right there. I do agree though, we should be able to use all...

My best mates girl friend has got a magnex system on her 1.3 mini. God it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo loud it hurts. But it does sound fantastic. Just wear ear plugs. Paul

Ben, bad luck and well done. He will probably go to the police cos he is a gimp and they will be very nice to him and crap on you from a great hight. But the adrenalin excuse is a good one. As you were already worked up because you had lost your keys and you were fearing someone had stolen...

Maybe the Scooby driver left it in 5th? ;) Paul
