it just has no use.

nice upgrade, how you finding it?

nice watch. Funny though how nearly every car looks lovely except the one they are trying to advertise

Imagine a K&N cone filter, Increase the diameter massively, then squash it down a bit. I'm pretty sure it's where the cone filters we have today originated from. Performance doesent come into it too much. It's not a cold part of the engine bay, but it is a simple design.

Do PS3s support Gigabit LAN on the ethernet port? If so, theres your answer. Run a cable. Everything works better on cables. I don't bother with wireless now. I just run a cable no matter how much fuss it is.

You ever done any validation work on FloWorks? It's so far out it's unreal. It will roughly show relative benefits of changes made, but actual figures are not worth looking at for most simulations.

I had a LOL half way through the log burner update, but you really finished it off nicely, hats off.

So you've done the torsion beam cos its free.....but neglected to touch the front end. I like the black wheels. But tbh, if your going that route, it needs more personal touches....bit of character

as said, fuel economy goes out the window with the charger. It's a really really tough one, but I'd go ITBs

ment? Keh? Replace the pre-cat with a NEW and CORRECT lambda (bosch or NGK). Access is a pile of piss on a 182, less easy on 172. 95% sure it's a 22mm spanner, if not it's a 21

ruined. Ph1, probably crashed, Ph2 front end. Horrid seats

good ol jubilees.

Potential for a flame-war to begin in post 2?

good ol fashioned grinder? Dremel/Die Grinder? Be creative

The problem you have is that if your using an HDMI input on the TV, the TV will not take a sound input from anywhere else other than the HDMI. If you used a very low quality Video/left/right phono plug setup then you could do it easy. But that's not the best solution. Best looking for a cable...

17 million miles is quite a lot for a car....

I wouldn't drill it. Especially not on a car like that, although it would make the desired noise. The only way to do it properly is with a good quality induction setup fed with cold air.

Not the nicest car, but the best detailing turnaround i've ever seen posted

The meg225 engine is a good idea. You get all the OEM turbo kit that would make for a nice conversion. However, that particular F4R (the F4RT LOL!!) won't fit the 172/182 boxes. Also the 6 speed from the meg225 won't fit in the front end of the clio. As with anything it can be made to fit, but...

I forget that EVERY bloody time I go :(

Just do a test drive. I'd keep the 182 with some mods to sort the obvious problems like seatin position.

Don't necessarily agree. I went TPFT at 20 as if I wrote it off I didn't want to be tainted with the claim on my insurance for the next 5 years. It's a gamble yes. But when your young you have to ask which is better, a repaired car (never the same), or cheap insurance for years to come?

for the extra performance you'll see out of a broadband connection, save your cash and buy one 17 or more port switch ( i take it you mean 16 machines I switch??)

as OEM clutches go, the 172 isnt a bad item at all. I wouldn't risk the hours of labour only to find that the ebay clutch is sh1te. Car turboed? if not don't bother.

I was 19

Your car is so mint. And theres some top metal on that track nice find.

^^ Blocked cat is a good one. although uncommon unless you've been overfuelling for some time (lambda or something)

I couldn't say without a little more info, someone else may be able to suggest something. What does the lack of power feel like? does it go then slow up? any particular rev range? Could be injectors/sensor(s) ie map, throttle,

don't really agree there....... but hey ho It's just the short wheel base/lazyV6/heavierThanTheMoon aspects that don't appeal

nope
