    FAO Fred/Danny etc, I think its broken...

    Surely you're better off hiring a car in the meantime - will be far less cost than repairing the potential damage you're going to cause? No idea what it is myself...good luck!

    rev limiter problem...

    It limits because you are revving it hard when the engine is cold. The limiter is set lower until the oil reaches its ideal operating temperature. Don't confuse oil temperature with the guage shown on your dash - that shows water temperature. The oil often takes longer to get warmed through...

    Ride hight opinions wanted White 182??

    I'd say you've got it bang on already...just the right balance of looks vs usability.

    Brakes seem a bit weak

    Ooh, best get it sorted ASAP then! No idea on technique, never done it myself. Have a search on here and you should find something.

    Brakes seem a bit weak

    Fluid...change it and give it a fresh bleed. Regardless of what pads/discs you are running, there is no way you should be able to push the pedal to the floor. In other words none of the pressure from your leg into the pedal is actually reaching the pads/discs as the poor fluid is stopping it...

    Bright Wheels Appreciation Society

    That's exactly why I started out with the orange wheels. Otherwise it was impossible when you want to review pics of the day or ask the official photographer if he got any decent pics of you. "Which one's you fella?" "Err, the blue 172 Cup". "Hmmpgfh" Much easier just to say "The one...

    Anyone for a Corsa on 20's?

    FLOL at him not knowing what/where a % symbol/sign is.

    project scene scooby

    Aye, but there's compromise, and there's making one of the most capable point-to-point cars impractical to the point of being virtually unusable on the road. I wonder how many people that have to brake down to 3mph behind this every time a speedbump appears are thinking, "F*** yeah, cool...

    Insurance and claims?

    Were you paying by monthly instalments? If so, that's what they're on about. It costs you £750/£603 to insure your car for a year. You've made a claim so the full year is payable. If you're paying monthly, no matter what you do with the policy, you still owe them the remaining monthly instalments.

    Mixing sticky track tyres with normal tyres?

    Makes no sense! Better tyres on the front, would give more grip on the front and therefore a balance toward oversteer. If you want an understeer balance you'd put crap tyres on the front so the nose just pushes wide.

    LOL - it doesn't seem that practical then, at all. Not on any real road at over 10mph anyway. Shame.

    What is THE best single game you've ever bought and why?

    For me, it's GT3:A-Spec on the PS2. Spent three years with that hooked up to a Logitech FF wheel taking part in online racing leagues (submitting replays for race performance verification). Never been into driving to any degree before GT3 came along, learned a lot from taking part in the...

    Turtle Beach X41 Wireless Headset - bargain?

    Got them today in the end. Wow. Amazing. I got a k/d of 1.00+ twice in three games wearing these. That never usually happens. Not tried the mic/chat yet, but being able to blindly determine direction and distance of footsteps/gunfire/mag changes/grenade pins/claymore plants makes a...

    Nicks 172 Cup From The Start!

    Lucky! I'd have s**t myself regardless I think!

    Chuckle. What speed were you going at over those speed bumps? Static/walking pace, or normal road/traffic speed?

    Turtle Beach X41 Wireless Headset - bargain?

    £100 at Tesco...pick up from your local store. Worth a punt at that price. http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.208-2598.aspx Picking mine up tomorrow :approve:

    Nicks 172 Cup From The Start!

    Ooh, f***, ouch. Much traffic when it happened?

    172 cup project, ultraleggera content....

    Badge looks aftemarket, and therefore trying too hard.

    Clio 182 v Cooper S

    Between the two of them, they are driver dependant.

    Clio 172 owners, which chip do you recomend?

    You're not expecting a bhp increase I hope?

    Cup had a really good wash

    Nice, but needs two white stripes to finish it off.

    Road driving with fixed wing bucket seats?

    I ran my Cup daily for the last two weeks as the Scenic was f***ed so the missus had Iggy. First time for over a year. With harness fastening (an extra 30 secs max), and visibility (mirror use, lots of it), I've had no problems at all. One thing to note Fletch is the depth of the side...

    My 172 Cup

    I like. Just the wheels and tow strap in yellow would be enough though.

    Picked up new clio 200 today :D

    I don't think I've ever seen an all black one. Simply stunning. Better than all the other colours by far.

    I'll have 190 next time I go...but I had to take the power steering off to get that high. :rasp:

    Suprising RR Result...

    Mine made 177 with a panel filter, decat, and k-tec stealth exhaust fitted at Surrey Rolling Road. Some Cups are born to be strong! LOL

    Ghost Recon : Future Soldier

    Me too. Loved GR:Island Thunder, played that relentlessly. I tuned out when it went 3rd person and futuristic...not my bag.
