Is what i was told by the garage mending my car, so i asked how that was possible.
the guy said that all you young lads.... means us lot i guess.
lower our cars but dont realise that being on 3 wheels or having a really stiff ride makes cars handle badly on all roads that aint race tracks...
So i spend about £20 and nearly a week sanding down various bits after the sucess of my side strips.
just added the front bumper tonight and im begining to wish i haddnt, im sure when i get the rest of the car clean it will look better.
i think is still looks better than standard...
i bought some new Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's
they were £38 a corner and cost £7.50 a corner to fit, the place i got them fitted quoted me, £70 per tyre fitted. nice savings!!!
they are 195/50/15
so i went for a spin
so, since my last project to get electrolysis fitted to the air intake so that id get hydrogen burning in my car got shot down, i have been thinking of a new way to get air from the road to the engine, now most cold feeds i have seen, seem to just take warm air from near the back of the...
Tomorrow morning im taking my car to get re built, well thats what it seems like,
its a 51 1.4 16v dynam +. its done 72K,
for about a year i have been buying coils and spending money on getting my ECU checked out by monkeys who dont know what an engine is.

i think many people are like me and have lots of ignition failure lights on,
today i finally took my car in to a garage who have decided that is wasnt the throttle sensor like i had previously been told.
my car was going into limp mode all the time, and the engine management light has been...

Cant see wheres its coming from but thankfully it stopped coming out of my exhaust now so i dont think its the head gasket. yey. but still loosing water fast!
Sorry for what i am about to post, i fear i have let you down my clio owning brothers. I always wanted red calipers, was this to much to ask, so i went to halfords and bought some dark red matalic paint.
i took my calipers off and spent about 3 hours cleaning all the rust off them with my...
I got gome tonight and noticed steam or smoke coming out of my grill, so i opened up the bonnet, i couldnt see any water or fire, but i noticed the radiator water bottle was empty, i filled this up about 2 months ago but it hardly ever moves, so i run the engine (with water) and all seems fine...

i wanna stick my laptop in my dashboard, does anyone know if i can put it in the space where the silver plastic strip is, so i can slide it back into the dash, i need to kno if it can fit between the airbag and above the glove box.
on rough roads im getting rattling is sounds like the bit of plastic under the gear linkage but i fear its the wishbone bushes, can these be changed or do i have to buy the wishbone. its worse when im doing 30mph in 5th gear and i put my foot down.
its not the shocks or springs or their...
