...one for each side... Sunstrip, mirrors, and wheels are going orange next :evil:

I think it did quite well... Blue line was from January, green line from Saturday just gone. Shows a peak gain of about 10 bhp. Charlie (RR man) says he regularly sees about 7bhp coming back from losing power steering, so that would mean I got 3 bhp from my homemade 'Maxogen'. Not bad...

I was digging through pictures from a few years ago, forgot how good this is. Where else do you get to see priceless rare cars like these being driven as they were designed to be driven? Anyone else going this year? The racing is proper racing most of the time too, not exhibition...

Nope. Blagged a ride with Lee at Bedford in May, only just got round to pulling a video together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVEVEE9Hb6Q I blame the Red Bull.

My old PC is creaking, and I can't get the DVD drive to write any data discs, so options are? USB key Standalone HDD Or could I have them both connected through my wireless router then just fire the files straight from one HDD to the other? If not anyone have any recommendations for the...

to this replacing this (urgh) Feels better, seems to pull at high revs better (I'm sure there's some ram effect from the CAF?), definitely sounds better. Rolling road early September will say if it really does perform better. For the cost, this is a great mod IMO.

I just knocked this one out in response to another thread. Shows a few launches, wet, dry, loose, s**t. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdBfI0TSTOI

I drove 40 miles to see a mate tonight, wasn't dark when I left, but had sidelights on as sun was very low. Get to his place and as I pulled into his drive I saw the car's reflection...complete with side and fog lights on :eek: - how the f*** I did that I'll never know! Luckily there's no...

Could someone 'shop this so that the wheels, door mirrors, and sunstrip are all the same orange as the decal on the rear quarter panel? Need to order another sunstrip since I had my windscreen replaced, and I think I might go back to orange wheels...

Anyone? Merlin are clueless about the FRAM no. I got off the paper element it came with, and their site doesn't list a fitment for the Espace V6. I remember seeing a picture on here of someone with one, but can't find it.

Filmed on Sunday, a montage of what I saw/heard/smelled - lots of variety. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW40rnL70qs

Certainly feels like it doesn't run out of breath so much at the top of 3rd and 4th. Running this one against the clock I get a low 15 something :approve: N8F2aEgnUMg

Will get it on the next Surrey Rolling Road to see if this Espace V6 airbox has made any difference. So, the afternoon started with Mike ripping this out... Then after a little jiggling about, this replaced it... Then after a flurry of activity... ...and a little head...

Assuming all other specs are the same which of these is better...and by how much...loads or just a teeny bit? I'd have thought the quad core would swing it? Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E4600 Processor (2.40GHz, 800MHz, 2MB cache) or Intel® Core™ 2 Quad-Core Q6600 Processor (2.40GHz, 1066MHz FSB...

More importantly, what was the spec? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpRSleUGPCI Anyone know?

As above, from my 53 plate 172 Cup? Thanks.

2hrs 20 mins of footage condensed down to this... Tyi0RYr_oe4 I wish my balls were bigger for turn 1...I didn't like the wind or my stored-in-a-shed-for-the-last-18-months A048 tyres...they were, ummmm, interesting. I'll be having some new 888s from you soon Mat I think.

To get ingrained baked on brake dust off...any good? Or will I damage my immaculate paintwork?

I don't normally do the camera/random car thing, but I laughed out loud as I pulled up next to this... Up close the detailed finish was, err, interesting.

Including the mighty Modus! I've got the Cup on F1s now and back up to 205 tyres from the horrendous 185s I've been running over the winter. Not too much trouble steering now I've got a bigger wheel, and the grip increase is huge. Anyway, they were all looking (fairly) clean so I thought...

Finally, I know for sure. I got around to weighing the last of what's been stripped today after Rentech Mike had his hands on it again, very pleased with the result... The first stage (done ages ago) consisted of taking out the carpets, sound proofing, all interior trim except dash and roof...

Two on the left match, as do the two on the right. The ones on the right look a bit more heavy duty...would those ones have come from the rear? Need to know as I'm just about to drop the whole setup from my Cup into our Modus. Thanks.

1, 2, 3, 4. What's it all about? Genuine question from a cleaning noob here...hand washed 2 cars on Sunday and enjoyed every minute of it for the first time ever :S

Amazing what an extra inch can do for you... Before...way too small After...just right it seems The difference it's made to the steering is HUGE...I got back after a thrash earlier, and I didn't have shoulders like Arnie :approve: And before anyone says, the colours are not my...

Is there anything? Or are engine mods to a 1.2 16v just a waste of time/money?

Done a brief search, couldn't find it. What bhp and lbs ft do 1.4 16v motors make?

Too much, not enough, or just right? I think I like it... yeE_SMyY8c8

Seems like it's slightly 'stuck' sometimes, still disengages, but it's like it's blu-tac'd in gear if that makes any sense? Had a new clutch recently, and that took a while to bed in, but performs fine now. Gave it a thourough test at Bedford and all seemed fine. So is the sticky gear-lever...

Obviously give the screen a good clean first. The brief instructions that came with it say apply the sticky surface of said t**t strip to a wet windscreen? Is that right or will a major FAIL follow?
