In short, im move back to the rents in december and will have a bit more money to myself. I want to start getting into the whole track day scene but finances havnt allowed me to do so in the past year.
Do I:
A) Use the Trophy which is more than capable to have loads of fun in (the usual...
All I remember is he had a Ph2 Flamer with dark wheels and had a leeds or northern accent. Sorry I couldnt remember your name! I was gassed!
Party was at Marston, Lincolnshire.
Looking to do a few Track days fairly soon and wondered what sort of Settings/modifications I could do to increase overall physical and mechanical grip.
My front Sachs's are in need of a refurb and currently have 34k on them so taking that out the equasion what else is there that will make a...

P0130 code on my OBD2 - Lambda sensor issue but the car drives fine and fuel consumption is fine too. I have noticed in the 1300 miles ive owned it, it has used a decent amount of oil. put a litre in when I picked it up as it was low; 2 bars on the digital display. I have been to LeMans in it...
Seeing as I destroyed the already fairly worn PE2's on the front whilst in LeMans on Mad Friday. I thought it best I bought a new pair... but I accidently clicked the wrong button and ordered four of theses!
Ordered Tuesday afternoon from Camskill - arrived this morning :)
Sold the 172 a few weeks ago for £1500 (was only on PH for 3 days) and went to pick this up yesterday afternoon! Number 473, 55 reg with 30k on the clocks.
I thought the 172 handled well but this is just on another plannet! It feels so planted, turn in is so precise and the seats are amazing...
Im looking at buying a car but the HPI has come back with:
VRM currently recorded by an insurance company as theft 26/10/06.
Ive asked the owner and he said the keys were stolen from the previous owners house and the car was then found 4 miles down the road. It has had new keys and locks...
Been reading alot of threads latelty regarding supercharger and turbo kits for 1*2's and its been mentioned about retaining the standard ECU instead of going OMEX etc. Could the principle be used for ITB's?
Nathan
Normaly locks when you reach 10mph or something... For some strange reason it now locks circa 2 mins after setting off!? at any speed...
Anyone else had this
Will I need to replace the sill switch once the passanger seat air bag has been deployed. I have a new computer but will the switch be locked closed after impact meaning as soon as I plug in the computer the air bag will go off again?!

Just a quick one but as we all know a new front bumper from Renault is circa £600. I have the option of having OEM quality GRP items made, utilising the same mounting points etc.
The only reason Im mentioning this is because I have wrecked mine with the amount of wildlife that has jumped out...
6 months ago when I was looking for a Trophy you could pick one up circa 6500 for a lowish milage example... they all seem to be over 7k now!?
whats the score!
Same thing can be said for 147 GTA's they are all around 7500/8k now when they used to be 6500/7k

Does anyone know any other cars that use the 172 radiator? I doubt the 172 has a rad specificly designed for it!
Pics to...
I have a couple of F1's that I have bent over the years, I have a slightly bent one on the car at the moment, only an issue over 80+ mph. Is there anyway of getting them straightened out? I know if you hammer alloy to much it becomes harder and more brittle and prone to cracking.Any companies...
Done a quick search but cant find anything and its a bit of a n00b question.
Any particular way/process to re fill the coolant system after fitting a new rad? do I have to bleed the system etc?
also do I need to use the green renault stuff or is the red pink stuff you can buy from...
As some of you may know I do a spot of Bodywork from time to time.
Heres one of my latest. Im not a fan of bodykits etc but I enjoy making them fit... this one especialy. Its a mix and match of different parts of corsa kits and every part hasnt fitted perfectly without serious fabrication! its...
Car failed its MOT the other month on 2 broken springs, so I picked up some cup springs from Icarus for £25, tar very much. Back seems a little lower and the ride does feel ever so slightly stiffer... but thats probably a placebo.
I also got round to fitting my new passanger seat I bought...
