Anyone put a car with non e-marked harnesses through an MOT? Did they pick up on it?

New rules came into force on 27th April 2009 allowing national flags to be included on vehicle number plates. The Union flag, Cross of St. George, Scottish Saltire or Red Dragon of Wales can now be legally displayed on the left hand side of the plate. Source - Croner Road Transport Briefing 5.6.09

Do these two cars have slightly different gear ratios?

Nice clean Trophy going through West Malling at about 8pm last night. Needs a splitter ;)

A friend of mine has recently bought a Sapphire Cosworth and he's got a neat little display in that basically shows everything the ECU is reading, things like throttle inputs, oil temp, and a myriad of other info. I did a bit of googling and found that similar things are available for Subaru's...

Stick a 1*2 engine and box in this and it'd make an awesome track toy! http://www.touringcarspares.com/car_details.php?id=54

Had to have my windscreen replaced today and in the process my CS tax disk holder has been fubared. Looking around for a replacement I couldn't find anything that took my fancy, so I'm getting one made up. Opinions please - which one?

Has anyone got a Logitech Momo steering wheel? Link... http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/gaming/pc_gaming/wheels/devices/320&cl=US,EN

Does anyone know what sort of lap times the various incarnations of Clio race cars put in on the Indy circuit at Brands?

Cheers SteBurns for giving me the idea to look! iJCWeBi9p18

I'm looking to get a set of wheels powder coated in Kent. I want a good job done of it and preferably want somewhere that will match the plastic centre caps too. Any recommendations of places to go?

I think the wheels off this would look good on a 182, what are people's opinions?

I've always wondered why no-one seems to take the cruise control buttons from Renualt steering wheels and put them on after market wheels. I thought I'd give it a go today and it was pretty easy. Here's what I did. It's tested, but it's not finished yet. I started with a wheel with the air bag...

Just come back from a day out at Brands. Towards the end of the day the car developed a knocking noise - it sounds similar to a woodpecker tbf, but it's intermittent. At first I noticed it on the exit of Clarke Curve with full power being applied and thought it was something to do with the...

Opinions? It's not tiny at 350mm, but it makes such a difference to the feel of the steering! I'm happy! (please excuse the poor photography skills)

Luckily she wants to see me again! :cool: LOL!

Might be a repost, but I think this looks awesome for a quad! http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/881328.htm

A friend of mine has recently bought a 2005 plate Clio Extreme and it appears to have a problem with the radio display screen at the top of the dash. When the weather's warm the display becomes very faint and difficult to read. Has anyone heard of this before or know of a fix?

Before: After: I feel old, but long trips are no longer a bum numbing experience.

Ditch the electronics and turn the flaps with a bolt and I see no reason why this wouldn't work on a Yozza or an Orbisoud. Why has no-one done it? Best of both worlds. BCuZY3XfxgE&

What do you think people? Thoughts and opinions welcomed...

Is there really that much difference between the cornering abilities of today's cars? Taken from Evo's fast club 2004 (it's taken a while to write this post) - A line of eight cones, 75ft apart. Get from one end to the other in the fastest time possible. The results: GT3 RS - 8.01sec Elise...

Undecided about the arch to wheel relationship, but pretty cool to look at imo... http://www.pistonheads.com/SALES/701814.htm

There are three numbers written on an AST coilover spring, what do they each mean?

What did you do to stop the rubbing at the front? I'm only getting rubbing when the suspension is compressed at higher speeds round a corner. Today I've taken the wheels off to see exactly where it is and the arch liners were visibly scuffed just where the front bumper joins. I've cut that...

Due to the extorsionate price of PE2's at the moment, I've decided to run Hankook RS2's as a daily (and occasional trackday) tyre. I've not used anything other than the Michelin PE2's since I've had it (if you exclude the Kumho V70A's for track a while back), as I've always found them to be...

Is there any point in trying to sell this from a car that's done 43k? Is there any market, or should it just go to the bin?

Anyone know the cheapest place to buy four Speedline 2118's?

Everyone and his dog seems to go for Turinis on a 1*2, I can understand why - they look great, but why don't more people (don't think I've seen even one on here) go for the 2110? Are they really heavy or something? I think they look really nice on this, maybe not in white with the orange, but...
