    Yokohama AD08 vs Federal 595RS-R

    I never had a problem either on my 172 Cup, would/could happily run all day long on a variety of road rubber. In the 200 though, the extra 300kgs seem to ask a bit too much of the rubber.

    CLIO IV RS - Trophy from page 111

    Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Does anyone know when the press will get a hold of these?

    Yokohama AD08 vs Federal 595RS-R

    No other reason than this. I do trackdays for fun, lap times are pointless, the less grip the better for learning the car. AD08s with their higher grip seem at odds with this, but both Continental Sportcontacts and Michelin PE2s pretty much evaporated/shed tread blocks when I ran them on track...

    Yokohama AD08 vs Federal 595RS-R

    Standard size, 215. 225 would give too much grip for me, 215 is just right.

    Yokohama AD08 vs Federal 595RS-R

    My AD08s only had 7.5mm tread when new. I've done a very hot day at Bedford GT followed by a monsoon day at Llandow on them. At Bedford they survived the temperatures without issue and are nice and progressive once they start moving. In the wet at Llandow I was very apprehensive as there's...

    Heater not that hot on setting 26

    You have climate control. It will blow hot if the cabin is at a lower temperature than the one you've asked it for. The temperature you specify is not how hot the air blown out of the vents will be. When you say it doesn't blow hot at, say, 24...is that not because the cabin is already at or...

    iPad Mini

    Echoes my thoughts. Held/used one for the first time yesterday, found it disappointingly small compared to our 2. Can understand the need for one if you use it daily on a train/plane, but beyond that, I can't see any reason at all why you'd own one instead of a full sized variant.

    RS 182, 197 or 200???

    Never had a flat spot in my 172 Cup + decat. Agree with the 200 mpg being worse though, my Cup over the same roads as below would easily see 40+. Having said that the 200 does seem to be improving with age and mileage. I much prefer my 200 over my Cup though, it's the better car more of the time.

    RS 182, 197 or 200???

    No they don't. Stick with your 182. Please.

    removing power steering in a 172 cup?

    I took mine off of my 172 Cup out of necessity as I'd put a kink in the standard rack. Mike at Rentech replaced it with a Dci rack IIRC...it certainly wasn't 20 turns...more like 2.75 lock to lock. As far as feel goes, it was night and day different from standard...I was genuinely shocked at...

    Bit of oversteer from the Clio 172 cup the other night + Video of the action

    Love it :approve: My Cup was just like this, any time, any place. My 200's not the same, but it does respond if you manhandle it or left-foot-brake. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iujU7EM_ik Grrrr...can't embed.

    Excel help - removing duplicate values in different rows

    You don't need a second column full of 1s in the lookup table. Just lookup the values in column 1, it'll report #N/A for any it can't find.

    Insulting and rude? Opinions were asked for, opinions were given. If opinions that disagree with what the OP/owner wants to hear are not wanted, then perhaps they shouldn't post pictures inviting them. If others also choose to take offence to these opinions...they need to be somewhere else...

    CLIO MK2 Ergonomic Problems?

    For me the main ergonomic issue is the reach to the gearlever. I'm 1.85m tall so have to have the seat a fair way back to have any sort of comfort with the pedals. The trouble with that is that to engage 3rd gear, it's then such a reach I have to lean forward in the seat to do so. Not so much...

    How long does it take a 182 to de-ice windows?

    You get satisfaction knowing the majority of your neighbors think you're a cnut? But it's ok because you have a day at work ahead of you? Really?

    Twin engined RWD Clio

    I quite like that. Buy it Chip, then run faster than lesley.

    Pic request please! OMP steering wheels

    Dished/not-dished based on looks? Eh? I thought the point of a dished wheel was to bring the wheel closer...so if you need it closer you need it dished or flat with a spacer...if you don't, you, erm, don't.

    Yup. Similar mods on any Vauxhall would be deemed nothing but chav.

    No denying that's a fast car...but it's awful. Truly awful. Would rather remove a testicle with a bread knife than have to have that parked outside every night.

    iPhone 5 or Samaung Galaxy S3?

    Lots of love in here. I'm counting down the days to the end of my contract on my Galaxy then I'll grab myself a Nexus 4. Should we now have an 'Android Chat' sub-forum? Or would that be really really really really really really sad?

    Call of Duty - Black Ops 2?

    Don't go down then :rasp: I find without Jug you're pretty much vulnerable to everything, two hits and you're down. At least with Jug you have a good chance at building points instead of hoping for the best from the box.
  24. Tighten My Nuts

    Call of Duty - Black Ops 2?

    :approve: Forgot to add, if you don't already, getting Jug should be your number one priority - over and above anything else. Forget hitting the box or buying any other perks until you've got it.

    Call of Duty - Black Ops 2?

    You don't need the space like you had in Kino. Just keep looping about, train them all up behind you, aim at head height and squeeze. I'm quite happy with an MP5 or 74U up to level 15 or so, beyond that and you spend each level continually buying wall ammo.

    Could be anywhere, all the components spawn in random places.

    LOL I tend to hang around the power station to build points...plenty of space to move about and a 74U on the wall.

    Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news So long as it's full of the necessary RenaultSport DNA I think I'd be happy with that.
