As there are many people on here into photography, same as the detailing thread why not start off one for Photography stuff.. Simple questions and a place people can browse for answers rather then the whole forum.. Also if you find a good deal or buy something and your happy with it, share it as...

Looks smart, you need some fuel though..

You don't need headlight washers, if they aren't fitted they can't fail them.. Hence why they are a grey area. Projector lenses is just so you don't look like a pillock a blind every other driver on the road..

The last 3 replies on here are the guys that speak sense.. Cup Shocks (or Konis) and Cooksport Springs is the cheapest and best way to go unless you spend £600+ on coilovers! Even then I'm not sure..

In the Ghetttoooooooo, he's usually found out and about with us aswell..

Ring Josh direct mate, he's fairly busy at the moment. 07980222001.. Yep have got a bit of progress done, will update soon..

Just ordered a DAS6-Pro, should hopefully be here this week.. Question: Are the backing plates that come with the machine any good??

As said you need to be a member, but if you can't afford/be bothered to pay £1 a month then you can go on eBay and they will come up on there now and again..

Apex do not give a 60mm drop. More like 40mm.. Ride comfort will knock your fillings out. Cooksports are lower on the front very slightly but same on the back.. But the ride comfort is slightly stiffer then standard..

Just get some 197 Xenons. Plenty of people selling them must be selling?

They are a 'race' style pad, they aren't really designed to be used at cold operating temperatures.. Hence why the braking effort is poor. Once you have heat in them they will be fine.. That's all it is probably..

I think you'll find it's a 'grey area' which means if the MOT tester is an anorak then you might be in for trouble, most of them don't know the difference between a tealite and a halogen bulb which means you'll probably be okay.. I have never had a problem.

Yep will be fine. Technically an MOT failure but so is HIDs, your more likely to get away with Xenons..

I have also done the same on my Cup..

Just buy 172 Xenon Headlamp Units, plug and play and look worlds different to the crappy hid look in the halogen lamps..

The clock surround on a cup race dash is riveted on, few drilled holes and you can move it, fill in the holes the other side, bit of plastic weld and a flock and you'll be okay..

Yeh. You can buy them from demon tweeks to whatever spec you want. Costs roughly the same as PM stud kit..

I have 5mm spacers on turinis and they look okay, but agree if they were fitted to 172 wheels or something similar they look ridiculous..

Depends what wheels you have IMO..

Looking good mate, I have this induction setup on mine and it transforms the drivability of the car so much!

Welcome mate, you can pick up a genuine 182 manifold and decat for that price.. I would go for that if I were you..

Was behind the rear door card under the seatbelt reel.. Went hunting after the smell. It was awful.. I don't know how it got in there. Previous owner I'm guessing..

I found dead, hard and smelly Royal Python (Pet Snake) in my 182 once.. That's probably high on my list of strange things..

Power steering was never an optional extra on a 1*2, it's basically going to be down to the discretion of the MOT tester on the day, if it was me, I would pass providing the rack wasn't leaking and all the other steering components are in good working order, I don't see that power steering is a...

Old bearings will need to be pressed off.. Everything else is pretty simple. Sure the torque is 175nm for the rear hub nut..

+1, for the road these are a very good setup and can take a bashing on track..

Liquid Gold?! FFS!

Good choice, I had a Nikon D3000 for my first DSLR and I snapped some pretty decent photos with it.. Enjoy it and use it all the time!

What a load of bull.. I'm sure there will be some sort of loop hole where you can get away with it or you'll have to find a friendly MOT tester..

You don't care what the car handles like? If you just want it low but don't care about handling then cheap coilovers will be okay, but nothing is going to be comfortable, it won't be bad but it'll be stiffer otherwise itll bottom out. But lets face it, the roads in the UK make any car a rough ride..
