    Clio with Rotrex super charger

    I do agree with @Waitey that if it’s top end, out and out power you want, turbo may be the answer. Problem is, it can get expensive and they aren’t very reliable. I went supercharger because it suits my driving style better and i’m not a big fan of “drama” in terms of power delivery. I was...

    Clio with Rotrex super charger

    Same as what I had. In that case, it will make a noticeable difference when in. I found it gave the car the extra legs in straights, and the extra power coming out of the corners, which meant it more than punched above it’s weight on track against some very expensive machinery.

    Clio with Rotrex super charger

    In the situation you’re in, yes, it makes sense in terms of power gain to cost / hassle. I found mine very reliable, great on track because of the power delivery being more “naturally aspirated” in its nature. The only thing i’d recommend is a diff if you don’t have one. Otherwise you’ll just...

    Engine Bay Painting - Best Method?

    Another vote for vapour blasting. I painted mine and it was an absolute ball ache. Yeah, you can get it to look good, but for the hassle and effort, vapour blast by someone looks very good value for money to me. Here was mine pre and charger. My second piece of advice, don’t paint anything white;

    It’s a high bar. At least I thought it was, but then they let @Daniel in. So maybe not anymore 😂

    It’s the same for everyone who isn’t a mod or admin. You need to PM the seller.

    First track day advice for a 182

    As others have said, check the fluid levels and the brake pads. Take a tyre pressure gauge and tyre pump. Check wheel nuts regularly. Other than that, agree 100 per cent with what @Mr Burns says, enjoy yourself at your own pace. It’s about fun and exploring the car, not a race. Oh, and I found...

    Lightweight track car

    After a few “hard sessions” on track, mine basically failed and we couldn’t find where the fault was. With the light on the dash it would fail it’s MOT and so instead of chasing the fault and throwing money fixing a system I didn’t want, I just ripped the whole lot out and put a cup set up in 😂

    Lightweight track car

    Regarding the ABS, is it still going to be road legal / MOT’d? If so, i’d 100 per cent get a cup. I ripped the ABS out of the flamer and swapped to a cup setup. Doing the work was fine, getting the car through MOT’s due to the brake bias / low braking on these cars at the rear was a right ball...

    New Clio 182 and wiring under dash has been hacked through.

    Looks ok to me. They just seem to have taped up where a gap in the original protection appeared. Is everything on the car working?

    @Ianboom With the greatest respect, can you advise where you live, so I never move there. People stripping cars on drives and stealing cars the day they’re bought? Is is “oop norf?”

    E63 AMG mini detail

    Top job, as ever. Need to get down the unit for a weekend of beer, chuckles and sort the S6 in the summer. It’s got buffer trails where some garage womble has clearly got overexcited. No fighting though! X

    What do people spend on their cars ?

    Just to put this to bed, @imprezaworks is bang on, more pedestrians than bikes hence the figure you posted as a total looks higher for pedestrians, but proportionately motorcyclists are at a higher risk than all other road users (except cyclists). ROSPA sum it up nicely in their road casualty...

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare

    Another favoured trick is to just lie down where you spawn. There are that many dead people, you can’t tell what’s alive on the floor vs what’s dead. Especially good if you spawn in a corner.
