Nice looking Saxo! You thought about going for a GMC SC? I hear those little lumps take very well to a bit of forced induction...

Ive heard bad things about the reliability of the newer Nacamachi kit... :confused:

I have a similar dilema. I am looking at around £250ish and for that sort of money I have been caught between Alpine 9812RB and the Pioneer DEH-P77MP... As far as I can tell the Pioneer should have the upper hand from what most people on Talkaudio suggest. Its just that its Fugly! Those...

Ive done so on the down shift on all my cars - not so easy to judge in the current one though because of the turbo!

OMG!!! Rust after just 4 months???? That has to be a record!

Thanks Floodie - Ive been looking at Focal Slims, Diamond Audio Hex and various others... I just really need to hear some now! Chav, when and wheres the RR day? Gotta check Im not working!

Im looking at various comps, and I have peoples recommendations which although I am happy with I would like to make up my own mind. Do you guys know of any ICE stores in the Kent, London or Essex area that might have Focal, DLS, Diamond Audio or the like that I can hear?? Ta in advance

Cool, DLS are pretty good by all accounts. Im told that you are generally better having an amp that has "head-room" (more power than the speaker is rated at), and you simply keep the gains down, to prevent damage to the sub. The guys on the Talkaudio forum will be able to help you more than me!

Looking on Ebay for some comps and came across this... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18805&item=5746205739&rd=1http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18805&item=5746205739&rd=1 Try a 1000W DLS Sub worth 780 notes in a Beach Box - it weighs in at 7...

Colin, what do you mean by harsh? Im looking at Focal 165 V slims as I have very limited mounting depths...

What do you guys think of the Genesis Profile 16s?

People seem to forget that Diesel is a naturally less calorific fuel(forgive the spelling). Less calories = less power per bang regardless of how it is exploded!!! Its like running a petrol car on 65 RON fuel instead of 95 RON.

dust

Either needs supressing or needs a shorter, heavy duty earth lead! How thick is the wire? How far from the Amp is the earthing point?

2ltrs NA I presume... if they dont mind a turbo... Scooby???

Take the thermostat out completely, it will take a little while to warm up, but it will tell you if its faulty!

As quoted from Pistonheads: RENAULT LAUNCHES THE CLIO TEAM Thursday 2nd September Sporty new 182bhp Clio hits the streets http://www.pistonheads.com/pipe/76005a7028c8908723b9dd97d63d74c4/news/8997-095647-1.jpg<A onmouseover="status=Click Here to...

I am possibly going to have to replace my current MP3/WMA Panasonic HU as it has developed a fault, and its over a year old now... I muuust have WMA support as well, not just MP3, so have been looking around and found this relatively cheap... Opinions please...

Spotted these on the Peugeot Sport Official Owners Club site... http://www.edesignaudio.co.uk/Products%20version%202.htmlhttp://www.edesignaudio.co.uk/Products%20version%202.html Never heard of them... dunno the specs yet, but they look interesting :cool:

Damn shame - lucky u are ok - the really worrying thing is that you hit the right hand wheels on the kerb!!!!! Thats not called understeer, thats called the wrong side!:o

Dont get me wrong - I love my pugs, and would hav a GTi-6 over Clio (thats just me) but they do seem a little childish on that forum....

Haha - see Rich-D is on there still :D

I had problems with my 205 - it had a Clifford Concept 50 something alarm, and the proximity sensor was under the coin tray. It took months to figure out what caused the problems! It was keeping loose change in the coin tray that did it!!! The coins f**ked with the alarm and made it spack...

Maplins

I have a 57 ltr tank apparently, and so far seen 480 miles with a quater left on the gauge :D

Octane actually makes the fuel more difficult to burn, it stablises the fuel meaning that it doesnt ignite before its needed, reducing pinking (pre-ignition). It means the timing can be adjusted more easily, and revs can be raised higher. Lead was used as a cheap alternative to octcane. New...

Bromley m8 - just down the road from me...

I needed brakes doing on my sh*twaggon - they were pretty helpfull and we able to deal with one of the calipers not releasing properly - replaced a brake hose and didnt try to fob me off about dodgy caliper - they are also pretty cheap so thumbs up from here I guess...

I kept trying to see what I could do in my old Astra Diesel with no gas at idle... I can pull away at idle... I can pull away up hill at idle... I can move up the gears (doesnt really like 5th - but 4th is ok...) at idle... I can tow a sierra XR4x4i (big old lump of a car) with 3...
