So a few weeks ago Adam Renault Wolverhampton gave me a random splitter, think he said it was off a Nissan but i'm not really sure So I fitted it anyways and here it is. image by sbridgey, on Flickr image by sbridgey, on Flickr I'm not sure about it, but more importantly does...

I don't think it should make a difference if it's wet or dry to the initial bite, its just easier to lock up in the wet so you can't brake as harshly.

It was the place selling the expensive red mk1. TBH as Ste. says they are nice people but now I am not sure about their quality of work :/ Guess I'll find out after they have tried to sort it out...

Pull the lever whilst a mate tries lifting the bonnet.

That was my thought really. Now I wont be able to get the car to them to resolve until the end of january, do I fix some of the problems to get the headunit working now, or do i wait?

Another way to look at it is that when other road users see brake lights they react and also brake, even if they don't need to.

Yep it's not really an issue as admiral will be fine for a standard car anyway.

I just got windows 8.1 on my desktop PC. And much to my surprise I like it. It's much better at dual screens and the interface is much slicker.

Yep Brentacre have always been brilliant for me and would always beat other quotes expect for rwd which is understandable.

Yeah it's them. They didn't do all of it, it was their job to fix it though as they were going on about how awful and dangerous it was.

Unfortunately they only accepted cash or bank transfer. So I paid cash.

Pretty sure there is the loud race system and two stealth ones, one being loud the other being quieter.

Just spoke to the garage on the phone, they tried claiming that they left it safe etc. etc. So i told them how it was and that it was really not safe in any way so they have offered to tidy it up free of charge. So I just hope they do a better job second time round as they refuse to give a...

Haha! Nope my BMW wiring wasn't that bad was it?

They don't call themselves Auto Electricians thankfully. Thanks for the offer but I can probably do it myself as I only went there 'cos I was at uni, now I am home I have access to the proper tools and wiring to fix it.

yep, well the previous owner did the wiring, their job was to rectify it! I am gonna send them an email now with all of those pictures in and see what they want to do.

So my MX5 was suffering with a starting problem and whilst trying to diagnose it I popped down to the local specialist for a part to test, after seeing that wasn't the issue they offered to look at it to see what was up. What they found was an alarm stopping the car starting and lots of dodgy...

If one tyre has more tread than the other its gonna cause the car to pull one way or the other. Plus unmatched tyres on the same axle isn't wise really.

Ss you have a new tyre on one side and an old one on the other?

Are the tyres wearing evenly on both sides?

Yesterday I got my RSR-R's fitted ready for bedford, today I drilled the airbox for extra noise! and also painted the wipers black again.

I do the same, its somewhat satisfying matching the revs and slowing almost to a stop without pressing the brake pedal.

Overtook me on both the m5 and the m42 with a spit of flame from the exhaust I was in the mx5 btw

Probably emissions, there used to be a rule if it was imported without an engine and then re-assembled it was classed as a kit car and not banned. The government noticed the loop hole though.

I always went for the cheapest pads the motor factors had in stock.

Awesome collection, didn't even know there was a e36 M3 LTW!

Keep the mx5.

Hated my VOIP module at uni, so good luck!

Back OT, you are putting the washer on the rear discs aren't you?

Just use fourth.
