Right I have decided to get some bucket seats for my car. I have never had any before so what I need to know is what I should look for. I am thinking I ought to go for reclining buckets as I am only going to be using it on the road therefore these should be more comfy? However, as I've never...

Girlie in Flamer !!!! Its me Rachel Anne!!!!! using brads user!

This problem has been occuring for a few months now. I keep losing my connection to the internet. Sometimes it will last a few ghours without problems, sometimes within minutes it dies. I then have to unplug the modem (and sometimes the router) and replug the power lead back in a few seconds...

Anyone? When I had them powdercoated black the other week a couple of people have told me not to polish them, don't see why not? They look a bit dull and could do with a super resin polishing!

Got me new boots on today. What you all think? Unfortunately left the centre caps at work so will put them on on monday. Also got my French plates this morning so put them on. Also a few other changes in the last few weeks or so. See if you can spot any ;)

Rachel wants ehr side badges photoshopped in the same colour as the wheels. And also the front and back renault diamond just to see what they look like. Any takers please?

What will strip alloys back to the metal for powdercoating? Paint stripper isn't strong enough for the paint!

HT53 *** 172 cup seen a few times in the Bristol area around Orpen park. I'm sure you have a cliosport sticker and car is for sale. Also the mrs saw and flashed a racing blue 182 on the fazeley road yesterday I think in her flame red.

Any of you guys got these wheels on your valver? The reason I'm asking is I'm going to be fitting some soon and want to know if you needed spacers front or back. I'd rather know before I fit them to prevent damaging the inside of the wheel/tyre or suspension. Thanks Brad

Bought some cheapo kent cams rn1601 just the fast road ones. What gains would I expect just from fitting them without a remap? Mister know it all at work seems to think I'll lose power. I said I'd gain a little but obviously more with verniers and a remap. What y'all think?

Been offered a used set for £120. Are these any good, will they make much of a difference to my valver? or will they just make it really tappety?

And having or had problems? Over the course of the last couple of months I keep losing connection multiple times a day. Its so annoying because I'd be on here or something and it would just die. I usually result to removing the power plug from the modem and putting it back in, which I...

Right my engine and gearbox has been rocking for ages and just couldn't be arsed with it. But it's starting to get on my tits now. Before anyone mentions, I've changed the dogbone mount with a new renault one and hardened it so it isn't that. Is it most likely to be a weak top gearbox mount or...

Anyone know/reccomend anywhere? Just gave Midland enamellers a call and they told me £30 per alloy. Anyone know anywhere cheaper than that? Brad

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/171758.htm Needs new gearbox but do you think it'd a good buy? Also a Cat D though and bootlid is slightly out of place. Expensive fix?

Right I'm not being lazy. Just not 100% sure. On my MOT failure form one of the thigns said: Offside front trackrod end ball joint has excessive play. I've narrowed it down to 2 parts on GSF. R43660TIE ROD END-RH CLIO (MALE) 12.50 Add R43660ATIE ROD END-RH CLIO FEMALE 12.50 Will it be...

Have some OZ F1 cups I have been rubbing down lately. Is it worth getting them powdercoated? I should be able to get as good a finish if I did them myself, but as I understand, they will last much longer/less prone to chips if they were powdercoated. Is this right?

Me and Rachel went out for a drive today and took a couple of pics, not clean I'm afraid :(. Car failed it's MOT today so :banghead: 10 days to sort out the bits and bobs. New wheels going on soon and possibly 1 or 2 other touches.

Been offered a set of new Hankook tyres 15 195 50's for £26.57. Anyone got any opinions on them?

Right I just want confirmation on if I'll need new dials. Everything works fine, apart from the tacho. Occasionally the needle will pop up and show my revs, but very rarely. Also occasionally it pops up but gives a dodgy reading, most of the time it's sat at 0. Therefore I get the impression...

Bought a set of OZ f1 cups yesterday, and they are in need of a refurb really, although I might run them as they are until the tyres need changing. Undecided yet. Really thinking about getting them done in black or anthracite. So if someone could put Dave's wheels on my car I'd be very...

Went up Halfords today and bought some products. Gave Rachels car a clean with some shampoo this morning and rinsed off. Then this afternoon gave it a claying with the megs detailer and claybar and then Rachel applied some of the deep wax that comes with the set. Was going to put some Autoglym...

As an update to my breaking the hose connection off mine the other day. I am currently carless. Is the pump necessary or could it be bridged out just using a piece of hose? As the main fuel pump will still be working obviously. Anybody know? This may just be a short term solution if it is...

Was tinkering with my rear beam suspension. As I was lowering the jack from the beam, I pulled it back and ripped the fuel line off. Tried to put it back on but I didn't know how and fuel was pissing everywhere. So I've drained the rest into a bowl. Going to go back out there in a bit. It has...

Going down Glenhills Boulevard, Leicester about 17:45. Don't know if it's someone off here.

I think that was the reg. Silver ph1 V6. Meridian West, Leicester at about 16:30. Someone on here?

Right I need a decent Dogbone. Obvious choice would be Renault so parts and part number anyone? Although I remember hearing something about being able to use a 172 dogbone? Is this true? If so is it any better? And prices on taht if so.
