    W900i

    Mine was really bad to start with, only lasting a day. Now its been through a few complete full charge / full discharge cycles its lasting much longer. it's lasting 3 - 4 days now, although i'm not using it quite as much as you do playing with it when you first get a new phone. Firmware...

    Renault Gap insurance

    I've got the 'Return To Invoice' insurance too. I got some documentation through from an insurance company (not renault) for it i think a month or so after taking delivery of the car. Its an add on to GAP as standard GAP will only cover any shortfall between your insurance payout and any...

    182 Goodridge hoses

    This one had me confused for a while when i first got mine i must admit. The shorter hoses in the kit just replace the rubber hoses on the nearside rear axle / beam. As you noticed the ones on the rear calipers are crimped on so cant be changed. It seems a bit of a stupid design really as you...

    Paint Damage :-(

    Ouch... so it's white paint on top rather than a scratch down to the primer then? In that case some meguairs quick clay should lift that off nicely. Dont worry about the supagard, its nothing special, i have it on my trophy too. Just apply a good wax once its cleaned up.

    2004 clio Facelifted: ECU is Siemens or Bosch????

    I'm pretty sure the ones in the 172 / 182 are Siemens, but couldn't say for sure if thats the same for the DCi. I'm sure someone more helpful will be along to answer your question shortly :P

    R-sport Ecu

    Yeah, you can get them reset so they can be used on another vehicle now. Fastchip (www.fastchip.nl) can do that for you, although it does mean sending it away for a few days. I think BBPT might be able to do this too.

    172 cup manifold mods

    Good work! The difference is pretty shocking really when you look at it like that. Seems like inlet manifold work is about the best thing you can do to a RenaultSport engine without throwing thousands at it.

    anti piracy is going to far.

    Seriously? Can't believe they can do that :S I know having the box connected to the phone line is part of the interactive discount contract when you get a free digibox, but didn't think they could actually fine people.

    Last look at my Trophy!!!

    Hope the sale goes well though mate. They seem to be selling for good money at the moment, so hopefully you won't lose much either.

    Days out 2005, in Video Award..

    Here's my video compilation from the Renaultsport track day at Brands back in May. http://crowspeed.net/videos/rensportbrands/brandsmovie.wmv No arty effects or anything was just edits from the camcorder tape stuck together quickly that evening, but I still quite like it.

    K TEC hmmm not happy

    They are normally very good with warranties, they replaced the backbox on Fubar's exhaust free of charge, and he didn't buy it, it was on the car when he got it. I dont really know what you're expecting them to do if you are too far away to travel to them? They should of course advise all...

    Videa Editing Software

    Agree with JamesRT, Sony Vegas is excellent. Lots of high end features possible if you want to use them, but not as difficult to use as Premiere (and all adobe products to be honest)

    Video Camera Mounts

    Yep I made the one i used to use in my 172. It lasted plenty of trackdays, and worked perfectly. Cost me about £2 to make :p Recaros meant i was going to have to get a windscreen mount, but i bought a bullet camera instead. I'm going to try and adapt my mount so that it will fit the...

    Toca Race Driver 3

    Will be interesting to see how realistic Bedford Autodrome is on this.

    BREMBO DISCS AND DS3000 Pads

    I agree it's the discs. I've been running the PF pads on the original renault discs since I bought the Trophy, and the amount of dust has been cut by at least 50% compared with the same pads and Brembo HC discs i ran on the 172. The dust that is created still sticks like hell to the wheels...

    Chased a Caterham and ran out of talent...

    Looked very close Mark. Its a tricky corner that is. Spot on on the laps I went out with you on later though. Agree with edde, I had a similar thing at FCS (Video). Not much you can do to save it once it really goes. Fortunately mine was at an airfield so there was plenty of run off though.

    Video Camera Mounts

    I dont see anything wrong with the suction mounts personally, but a couple of trackdays i've been to have said they are not allowed. Most organisers dont mind as long as the camera is fixed securely, but a fixed mount is probably safer. Like this one...

    What steering/stalk control adaptor for 182 ??

    its written on the front of the actual OEM head unit: Tuner List: Update List: Cars that were originally fitted with the Update List head unit have different displays and stalks, and most current adapters will not work with them.

    W900i Themes?

    Yeah, time will tell on that one I guess. The orange strip round the edge is raised slightly so when you put the phone down, the lens doesn't contact the surface. The plastic that covers the lens is very solid. I wouldnt expect it to get any more damaged than maybe a few fine scratches. It's...

    W900i Themes?

    yeah it is pretty much, just slightly wider i think. Its compared to the s700 too in the review: http://www.mobile-review.com/review/sonyericsson-w900-en.shtml Its funny, I thought I would prefer a black one but looking at those pics compared to the white version in front of me the white is...

    W900i Themes?

    Em, its quite a chunky phone. Mine is the white version, but here's some comparison pics next to a k750 taken from another site. Opened out its big (although not much bigger than most flip phones really), but you only need that for texting. Its worth the increase in phone size for the much...

    W900i Themes?

    The phone comes with 3 Vodafone themes, then the ones on the Sony Website (see link day posted above) except for the christmas ones (so thats Backstreet, Lounge and Avenue).

    W900i Themes?

    Mitchy, I got it from Vodafone through the website and it cost me £50. I'm only a light user so that wasn't too bad, it's free on some of the more expensive contracts. Stocks are scarce at the moment though. Its romoured that it is only available on Vodafone exclusively till Feb, but not...

    W900i Themes?

    Got my Sony Ericsson w900i yesterday. As it's only just been released there's not much out there in the way of downloads and stuff yet other than the standard SE ones. Anyone know of any sites with themes for it? Esato dont seem to have any yet.
