I forget about that lol There's nothing better than having your buns gently toasted while having the air con on or windows down. I wish my car had heated seats

I do like that! Definitely wire up the heating elements though!

Date and title amended. Let's see how this goes :D

Lazy! I'll do it lol

Hi and welcome, Cup suspension has a blue and orange dot on the front springs, you can see through the spokes.

I could do next Sunday

I've honestly never heard of your problem happening @slowRen. I genuinely think you just got stupidly unlucky.

Washbox? Auto finesse revive is a great trim dressing. If you prep the plastic first it'll last a few month and still look blacker than when you started even after its worn away. Sonax bsd is brilliant.

Your sister sounds amazing! Awesome car!

Just make sure you have some mechanical sympathy, let the car warm up before driving enthusiastically and it wouldn't hurt to learn to heel and toe, then the box should be fine

I tried this today and it seems to have improved it slightly. It's nowhere near removing the problem but it is improved. You should definitely post that video in the guides section :D

Have you found the cable tie fix helped? I've not got any in the house so I'm going to get some today. Is there any way to replace that map sensor so it's more rigid?

I know of someone selling an engine. Want me to get you their number? @slowRen

I'm out with some friends this weekend but I'm definitely up for a triangle run in the coming weeks. What dates are good for people?

I could be wrong but I think albi has a brighter flake/base than Mondial/Arctic.

Omfg if it's that simple I'll be so pissed off lol! Off to find cable ties.

A lad at work said "I saw a bright orange, low clio with air vents on the side nail it down the m56 onto the a55 around chester" yesterday I think it was. And I've just spotted a mondial 52 plate 172 cup with a trophy spoiler and on show exhaust drive towards Cheshire oaks from the town centre...

Vtec y0!

I had ecstas on my old 1.4, they were decent for the money... But I remember one emergency stop in which they absolutely did not want to stop! Proper s**t myself.

They must need running in or something because thinking back, I've been in a 182 which was piloted quite enthusiastically and it showed no signs of wanting to kill me. Running T1Rs

I've just had these put on the civic. The previous Bridgestones were pitiful (se???) it'd understeer on and off the throttle. The rain sports have completely changed the ride! It's a massive shame they didn't sort out the wallowy suspension :( lol

I've read T1Rs are top of the range budgets, from what I gather they're not amazing in terms of handling but I've never heard of anything as severe as what you're experiencing. Lower pressures and wear them in?

I never bother with driving it to dry it but it wouldn't hurt. You could pay dry some areas that need it.

After you've washed it, rinse it and while it's still wet, Mist it with a qd (I'm loving auto finesse glisten atm...although it's not marketed as a qd), pressure rinse, then final rinse with an open ended hose to dry @Bear Head Won't let me quote for some reason

Contactless washes and patting dry ftw Or just don't wash it lol

That looks nice, and it'll be so rewarding to correct! I'm not sure whether the marking a line thing is recommended or correct or what but I get great results with its help.

Pics of swirly bus? Did you get the black type S? Read up on the zenith technique, draw a black mark on the backing pad and alter your pressure so the pad is spinning at around the same rpm/opm on every speed setting to get the best cut and finish. That works best in my experience.

Dat gloss

Hi and welcome

I saw that earlier and thought "Yeah, very subtle but telling" Then I read "I really want to turbo it!" ... If they serve a purpose then go for it, if not, leave it.
