    Sunday dinner? naaa clean the car

    16" and lowered gives it a fantastic look already for a non sport. Sheep mods: Colourcoding, all round, Or all round except sport rear bumper would be top stuff in my eyes. Plain number plates, Little touches elsewhere would see it right.

    Cleaned BG 182+ new car mats

    Dash inserts, Gear stick insert need to be painted imo to break it up a bit. Think the handbreak plastic is better as plastic too. But other than that looks mint !

    nice and clean

    Tidy example that, But i dont like the orange bits at all, Dont think it pulls it off well. A darker colour would work better imo.

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    Ive read you should stick with brand specific oil, Because its different in each filter. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMC-CDA-Air-Filter-Cleaning-Servicing-Kit-Cleaner-Oil_W0QQitemZ350310716123QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item51902552db

    BMC induction kit cleaning?

    I clean my foam filter in fairy liquid and hot water, Soak for ten mins. Wash inside out to make sure the dirt is washed out.. Dry in radiator if poss, I get impatient and use a hair dryer. Then re oil. Id try and use BMC oil if it exists. Edit: Too late :approve:

    Never knew tyres could make such a difference!

    Going from budgets from hankooks on my 1.2 has given me so much more confidence in corners, I cant think what it would be like on a 2.0 on budgets.

    1st Time Lowering

    I've readied myself for fitting the springs (just got to find some now ha!), Seems pretty easy. If the drive shaft falls out, It literally just pushes back in? Mark51, Let us know how the fitting goes.

    1st Time Lowering

    ^ Ok so as long as the 2 bolts (top and bottom) are being undone: are undone the driveshaft shouldnt pop out? My top mounts undo easy but i havent checked the bottom 2 bolts. Sorry OP for threadjacking.. Suppose all these little questions will help some people though :)

    1st Time Lowering

    Is it only the non sports that have the problem of the driveshaft popping out? Or all models?... A bit confused on this, Or is it just unfortunate if it does? Only tips ive gained is WD40, Check the front struts undo by hand before planning the job, Otherwise will need air gunning off and hand...

    how do i know if i need more ram?

    Id use task manager and watch the memory graph (if there is one on vista) whilst running a few programs, If its high upgrade ther ram. Although a fresh install might be better if its clogged up with programs / a virus. Although best of all upgrade the hardware completly if its not cutting...

    Have you taken the pads out to see if there glazed or anything? Quick rub of the pads surface on a house brick if so. File of the edges of the pads if theyre too tight.. etc

    My clio - MEA! :P

    Nice, Wheels are a bit big as said but good start. Simple mods like clear side indicators, silvervisions for the rear etc wouldnt go a miss, Then some colour coding and lowering will see it right.

    Transfering V5 to my name

    Making the car in my own name brought the insurance down by £100, I might phone up tomorrow and see if the insurance company cares though. Im interested the same as Jesus if paying the £25 means i can change the name and it wont count as a new owner?
