has anyone else got one of these? i've just bought one and not yet fitted it going to do it in a minute. what are peoples opinions on them? i know it won't be as good as a harness but it should give better support than the seat belt on its own.

ok i have an intermitant problem that only happens when its really wet what'll happen is the car will run like a bag of s**t and not burn the petrol. i think the induction kit is sucking in water spray. anyway the past couple of times its righted its self with out the engine warning light coming...

Any one else using this? mines connecting at 3.6mbs at home but went round my mate and only connected at 53.6kbs. how are other people finding it? i like the idea of having broadband anywere if it connects quickly

what are peoples opinions would it just be wrong to do it? mines odyssy blue at the moment but needs a full respray. it could be different. i've no intention of ever selling the car so resale value is not an issue and my mate would do the respray. i suppose i could try it and if i don't like it...

may sound stupid this but how come sometimes my car will rev to 7250 rpm other times it will cut out at 6750 rpm? anyone know?

THE ENGINE IS UP 4 SALE AS IT HAS TURNED NUMBER 2 BIG END AND HAS MARKED THE CRANK, is it serious?

i'm really keen on building a car for doing quarter miles but cant decide what would be my way of going about this. i have have had a few ideas but want other peoples opinions. there is a mk2 ph1 1.4 with cambelt failure on autotrader for £400 was thinking of doing a 172 engine conversion and...

my brakes are starting to feel a bit shite now after a few thousand miles of abuse so i need to change the pads. whats the best pads to change too and how much are they?

always wondered if you fitted a ph2 172 gearbox to a ph1 would it give even quicker acceleration due to the different gearing or would it just be the same? i know the ratios had to be changed in the ph2 as they are heavier and would have been slower otherwise.

got these off mattT while i refurb and get new tires for my oz

what size tyres are they and would they be ok on a 172 for a while? or would it handle s**t? i know the speed rating wont be as high but i'm not going to be doing 150mph lol.

and no its not really for sale lol

as above, i've never seen another but there must be others some where in the north west area. anybody have one or know of one?

i'm currently on standard 15 inch wheels and was thinking of changing but don't want to lose any of the great handling that i have now. should i stick with 15's or will 16's be ok. i know the phase two have 16's but they are not supposed to as much fun as the phase 1 and was wondering if this...

i used to run an open k&n style filter but decided to try going back to original airbox and pipercross panel filter. i'm really dissapointed it doesn't feel anywhere near as responsive and now it doesn't rev as freely so i think its back to the open filter. why does everyone think standard...
