Few changes on the M3 over the past few months. I've put some miles on her too this weekend driving to Bedford and back, and Carlisle and back. Stopped off on the way down some nice country roads for a few pics, nothing special only from my phone. CSL diffuser has been sprayed, the 19's and a...

First up was a CSL carbon rear diffuser, still need to get the surround to it sprayed up in the next week or so, but should look a lot nicer from the back. Then managed to get a set of springs for it and fitted today, dropped it a lot more than I expected! Not sure if it's a bit too low...

Fitted my 19's this afternoon since the weather is starting to turn rubbish. Initial thoughts are the winter tyres are a lot noisier and feel the bumps more, but looks a lot better and will be safer so I'll live with that! Old v New 2 months in I'm still loving it, best car by a...

Whats the main difference between the 2? I want to get a few coats on my winter wheels today but only have normal Poorboys wax, is there a big difference?

Will it ruin decent winter tyres by using them in the dry whilst it's warm?!

Gave the car a weekend of loving since the weather was nice down here. Started with a quick wash and clay/de-tar on Saturday afternoon, interrupted by cleaning my mates Focus ST! Then finished it off this afternoon with a quick blast of SRP and some Chemical Guys wax, glass polished, wheels...

My mate nipped out with me a few weeks back as I wanted some good quality pictures of my car, he's a photographer/director kind of person so knows his s**t I'm assuming! Anyways, just got these through.....there's quite a few more but these are the best Personal favourite

Put some initial pictures up of the car when I got it last week, but thought I'd keep something updated with the work I've got planned for it.So far it's completely standard on 98500 miles and looks like this: So far I've bought some tinted lenses and black front grill, not to everyones taste...

Well, my idea of a track day Clio never really panned out (drove it about 1000 miles in wish months!) so decided it had to be replaced. Getting rid of my van also and back to 1 vehicle, so it had to be something good. Went through several options and finally ended up here as a bit of an impulse...

Just bought myself a lovely BMW :) Kind of starting from scratch again as most of my stuff has been given away or lost, so ideally I'm after some products to let me do the following: Wash (obviously) Clay it, IronX??, clean the wheels, hand polish, hand wax/seal. Want to give it a good going...

My iPhone 4 is really getting on my tits. Over the past few weeks it keeps turning itself off, past few days its started cutting out calls, freezing, the main button not working etc. Typically it's 3 weeks out of f**king warranty. I've done an iTunes factory reset etc and it seemed better at...

I need to restore my iPhone but I'm worried about losing all my contacts etc, does it delete everything and start again or will they all still be saved? Never needed to do it before now!

Been having problems with my iPhone crashing recently. Completely out of the blue and no one thing seems to trigger it. No new apps or anything else installed for ages. Anyone had similar or any ideas to stop it?!

Decided to blow the cobwebs off my hangover with a bit of a drive out in the Clio this afternoon. Have been thinking about selling it and getting something a bit nicer again even though I have no need; won't be going down that route though. Did about 140 miles. Stopped in a few places around...

Are you happy with what you were told when buying your car? Was the seller honest and fair? Myself, not so much no. Wheels and tyres swapped for damaged/corroded budget items, one being pretty badly buckled. Wipers swapped over for fooked ones. Exhaust swapped over for the sale with a standard...

Just bought a new external HD that I'm going to use as backup etc. I have a MBP with windows installed. Windows has all of my work stuff on so that's more important. If I back up the whole computer through the Mac software will it automatically have my work stuff on it? I know that it needs to...

I can't remember who people use to buy upgrade memory from? I seem to think there is a cheap place on the net that most people use? Any links?!

Just realised my insurance is due tomorrow so had to renew with Elephant for now for ease, but will be shopping about and can always cancel. Renewal for me: £691. 23 y/o male 5 NCB No points/accidents relevant 5k miles per year on social only F/C with £1k excess (high I know but don't plan on...

Decided to upgrade my MBA to a MBP at the weekend after running out of hard drive space. Desk looked a little loaded this afternoon! Need a bit of help however. I run parallels for Windows XP for CAD software and CNC programs. The MBA is 4GB with 1.7ghz i5 processor. The MBP is 4GB 2.4ghz i5...

Need to sell my MAcbook Air so I can upgrade to a Pro. It's a late 2011 13" with 4GB Ram, i5 processor and 128gb SSD hard drive. In excellent condition, just a few very minor scratches etc from daily use. I bought it direct from Apple a week before Christmas. Comes complete with box, manuals...

I bought a MBA direct from Apple just before Christmas, 13" with 128gb HD. Noticed yesterday I've filled up over 120gb so I'm getting close to the limit! I know on their site they sell second hand ones, so could I px it with them against a 15" MBP? I don't want to run with an external HD, and...

Is it possible to lock a program on full screen view? I use parallels to run Windows XP, but when I go to top right to close a program the odd time I click the arrows which takes it from full screen to a half window. This then screws up my organisation on the desktop as it reorders it all...

Are these as simple as they seem? Literally plug in and crack on with the internet? How do you top them up? Which is the best one to go with?

Went up to see some relatives so took a few snaps of the 172. Great journey overall, a bit more wind noise the my old 330 but much smoother ride, no back ache and more fun on the back roads. Only downside was 34-37mpg on a 200 mile steady run at 70-80, was expecting over 40 easily so will have...

Have just downloaded a couple of albums but want to put them on CD for my van, how do I do it?! Alos have windows installed on my macbook, tried to do it through Win media player but doesn't like the file types??

Picked the car up from Paul (Harpham) last Saturday and got a fair bit planned for it. Few pictures of it as it stands now, on 66k miles: First mod was an OMP wheel to replace the shagged standard one: So much better! I did make the long drive to Gloucester to buy an Imola bucket...

How can I find it?! Disconnected the battery earlier and now need to put it in to work. Have no paperwork etc. It's an 01 ph1 172 with tape head unit and 6cd changer.

Are there any difference apart from looks on these?! I like the Sabelt's but they're about £50 more than this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OMP-WRC-STEERING-WHEELa-RENAULT-CLIO-182-CUP-98-06-/330673665473?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4cfdafb5c1#ht_3835wt_1261 Is it worth the extra?

Is it possible to connect wirelessly (bluetooth) to a CNC machine? Currently connect to the machine with an RS485 cable with a USB converter which plugs into my macbook, but is it possible to plug the USB machine into something wireless and then I can connect to it that way?

Thinking of becoming a baller and getting the 27" a bit earlier. Now my assumption of it is that I can come into the office, connect my macbook up to it then it just comes on automatically with whatever my macbook is doing, is this correct?! Also going to get a keyboard, so I can just stick the...
