Just some footage from my track day this weekend just gone. Was a great day out and had an epic support vehicle. My pal randomly bumped into his dad, it was an M3 forum meet too. This clip shows me sitting behind my a guy called Steve's M3. He wanted to watch back some footage of his...

My car decided to rip off the front splitter at Bedford on Saturday. So I need a new one. Had a quick search. Don't have time to go to a scrappies and there's not one that local to me anyway. Where do I get one from. Skoda splitter isn't it? But any particular model or part number? Or is...

Playing around with wheels this weekend. Though I'd weigh a few of the different combinations I have. To my surprise the 2118s I have are actually lighter than the OZ F1s I have. I was expecting them to be a good few kilos heavier, not lighter. 2118s wrapped in RSR semi slicks. F1s wrapped...

Anyone know where I can find this? For my mates Focus RS. I've found up to 5" ones on eBay. But not sure how well it will work being a size too small. Ridiculously big tailpipes!!

Made me giggle. What a complete bell!!

Used the website http://www.alignmycar.co.uk/ and this place popped up as my local. Need to get my BMW checked. Cheers

This stuff sufficient? I'm sure it is, but just thought I'd see if anyone had any objections to it before I bought 10L. Cheers

Seriously fast.

Does it actually make much difference? Is it just the lip on the panel which you flatten back? Everything else I can see up there is all fixed and won't be moving for toffee. Want to get rear spacers but want to minimize the rubbing as much as possible first. Anyone got an arch roller in...

What do you use? Any good? They run down far too quick.

Morning all. I've been reading into and looking at different battery cables. I've been told that for the length I want (to relocate my battery behind the passenger seat) I need 10.1mm cable (25mm sq core) which is capable of 170 amps. At the minute I've got an 8mm cable which I'm assuming has...

Clio driver pulls out right in front of this guy. Which unfortunately costs him his life. Admittedly the biker was probably going too fast though which doesn't help. Think bike people. R.I.P

I think that's what it's called? The unit which normally sits under the handbrake cover?? I'm sure that what I saw you call it mate @Dan@SJM Can it be removed or moved else where, say up into the dash without any problems? Or will it cause a problem with dash lights? Also, Does anyone know of...

Right so I got a proper GEO setup done on the car on Monday. It's given me some values to work with and hopefully work out what spacers and shims to buy. But I'm basically trying to work out what spacers will make the wheels potentially rub the arches and what degree shims to buy for the...

A few other Clios there. Didn't get round to speaking to many people because time is always so tight in the evenings. Was anyone else from here there? Here's some in car footage from mine.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWUjbc3hgAU&list=UUd15JoWXLDzAYdQTCMZuSZA

Does anyone use this? My first time trying it today. Finding it difficult trying to convert a clip. It keeps getting to a certain percentage and then just stopping. Tried stopping and restarting it a few times but it eventually stops at some point. Has anyone experienced this before...

As above. Will wheel bolts from a 200 be the same as wheel bolts from a 182, and therefore interchangeable? Cheers

As above, the shock to hub bolts. Mine are the standard Renault bolts but they are a little too short for the coilovers with slotted washers. I've got some longer bolts coming in the post but I'm not sure if they'll reach me in time before my GEO setup :( If I was to take one out at a time...

Fitted my wheels back on last night for the first time in ages. Annoyingly the head of the bolt holding the abs sensor bracket down fouls the wheel! Surely the captive nut should be on the underside of the coilover link and not on top. Seems like an error to me. Can anyone else with ASTs...

Worth a watch. Pretty impressive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJkPqGooZKA

I've asked before on here and I've asked around but I've never been given a clear answer. Neither have I found one on my searches. I've got Powerflex black wishbone bushes, which have a metal washer. I know it's probably not essential to know the torque settings but it's the first time I've...

I've not seen a thread with any footage from this series before so I thought I'd start one for everyone who's interested. Here's some footage from Rockingham; http://vimeo.com/100974669

Had a look around the arch and can't see any obvious connections. Is it somewhere right up in the bay? Thought I'd ask to save me wasting time looking around in the wrong places. Cheers

Fitted my ASTs this weekend at last. But a couple of questions. The main one being about the rear top mount rubber. Do I need the little gold washer still? If I leave this fitted then there's a gap between the chassis and the top of the damper shown below. If I remove it, the damper touches...

No sure if it's actually called a hub on the rear or a stub axle? Correct my terminology if you know. But, how hot do these two parts get ? ? Looking very worn on my car and wanted to give them a quick lick of black paint before I finish off putting the car back together. What I wanted to...

How on earth do you do it up!! Had it off randomly to be powder coated with a load of other bits. Went to re fit it yesterday but gave up after a few hours and with the lack of light. I've got the ARB in position with the powerflex bushes and brackets in place. Bracket is hooked on the link...

Now I would normally just do everything up by hand using judgement and check it after a few miles/days etc. But thought I may as well ask the question and get it right if possible. So could someone please tell me the correct torque for the following suspension bolts/nuts: 1) Front strut...

Serious crash. No idea how he survived and actually climbed out like he did. http://www.theverge.com/2014/6/20/5826926/guerlain-chicherit-gopro-car-crash-video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWOANXNGrZc#t=720

So yeah, got these two road tyres sitting in my garage. Anyone know if they are worth anything to even consider selling on or shall I just keep them stacked away just in case they're ever needed? Bridgestone Playz PZ-1 195/50R15 82V. Plenty of tread left on them. Any ideas?

So I got some Lemforder items from ECP. Found out they were the wrong size (think they gave me one for the wrong rack) so got them swapped over. They look much better (longer) but upon briefly inspecting the ones on the car currently. They seem like they could be a cm or two too short. So...
