What do you guys reckon about Remus exhausts?

I am getting so fed up of hearing "Oh you have a Clio, no sorry we dont cater for that vehicle." My exhaust has a great big hole in it after only 20000mi (and I live in a dry climate so it shouldnt have been rust) and i thought it might be time to get an aftermarket exhaust and branches while...

What do you guys think of the Toyota Corolla 1.8 VVTL-i (141kW)? I saw one at our local motorshow this weekend and they are going to be released here early next year. How does its price compare to that of the 172? how does it perform? Thanks

I was driving along at about 120km/h and there was a very loud pop and the car lost a lot of power. Also it sounds like there is no exhaust attached to the car. What could be wrong? Do you think it would be safe to limp to a garage on monday? Thanks guys

My brakes squeak. Its damn annoying! How do I stop them squeaking? Theyre fine when theyre cold, but once the car is all warmed up they squeak. Is there any way to stop them squeaking or do io just replace the pads which are only about 40% worn. Ive been thinking about uprating the...

I have a 2001 Clio and really like the rear lighting cluster of the 2002 model Clios. Are their any issues with fitting a 2002 rear light cluster to a 2001 Clio?

Ive just gotten a reply email to a query I sent to my local Koenic Suspension distributor. He was talking about springs which would lower my car by 35-40mm which was all well and good. Then he mentioned 60mm springs but said they dont drop the car by 60mm but rather by about 35-40mm and were...

What is the difference between electric and metric bhp? If one were to convert 124kW (172s rated power in kW) and convert it to metric bhp then one comes up with 169bhp (metric) is this then the correct figure to be using when one is using bhp in calculations?

Ive been offered a serious bilstein suspension kit which Im really considering. The springs are gonna cost in the region of 137 pounds and the dampers would set me back a staggering 562 pounds. Is it worth me getting the dampers for my little 1.4 16V or should I just go with the springs. The...
