theres a thread in off topic about this called something like online multiplayer gran turismo we are trying to get a crew sorted out but it seems were a bit disorganised.

welcome

when my pulsar was getting fixed i had a calibra (which i didnt like), the stereo place near me has a suzuki swift (which is actually quite fun)

see demon tweeks for the brakes, you can spend as much as you like. as for the gear change, the valvers box is not the strongest or smoothest imho, mines on the way out i think, so gear changes are pretty tricky.

someone posted it a while back, i cant remember the name of the thread, good clip though

but its probably still enough to spin the wheels

then you would have probably have to double de-clutch on your downshifts to speed the gear to the correct speed.

it speeds up the gear you are trying to get into to match the speed of the shaft/gear you are trying to connect it to. does that make sense?

cheers mike, its now my desktop.

i know, its about 12.5 miles long. but id like to have a look.

i nearly overtook a boxster down a twisty road near me once. he was trying, but i think either he didnt know the road at all or he was just a sh*t driver cos he was all over the place in the corners.

does anyone know of a track layout i can download? it doesnt matter how big it is, im at work:)

gr, where are you seeing this red one cos i see one near me too. its got the exact same kit on it, but somehow you can tell its not a real one (without the obvious fact that its red). Nice cars the real ones, a bit on the big side for my tastes, but meaty.

i thought id seen an earlier shape clio saloon on a travel show, but i wasnt sure. its not exactly pretty is it? are there any nice looking small saloons.. ever? think about it, orion, belmont, focus saloon, nova saloon....

do a search for power steering, youll find loads of stuff on it.

ah, now youve got me there, maybe someone near you who builds fibreglass/carbon race car parts? ive often thought of geting some of this kind of stuff done, i nearly got a kevlar bonnet for my old pulsar, but i broke the car before i got the chance to mod it:(

how about trying to drop the weight? light bonnet? tailgate? doors? windows? just another suggestion really.

ive always thought cams on a valver might be a little silly. im not speaking from any experience of driving one with cams, but dont you think its a bit top endy already? how about a weld in roll cage? then cover it in alcantara like in a noble.

do you really have to get a fire extinguisher? what about lights (blanking bits over and all that)

uh oh. i guess this means that a dead spot in the steering when going straight ahead is the start of this then?

i think ive heard of it being done on a valver, but that was years back (when they were new). let me know if you find out anything.

ill probably sell my phase 1 wheels in the near future, theyre gold, but if youre going to refurb them it doesnt matter, theyre in good nick, and i think i might sell all five. ps - I prefer the phase 2 rear lights and grill.

could be a wheel bearing? but since its new, take it back and get it fixed for free.

grey 16v - yes, probably, unless you are very lucky, or know a garage that will look the other way. your car and mine share the same birthday.

Ben - unfortunately they changed the rules so it is any car regestered on or after 1st august 1992. i say unfortunately - can you guess what day my car was regestered on?

are you replacing the cat? is your car a k reg or newer? if the answer to both of these is yes then change the exhaust after the mot.

i think thats 165 dash.

ive got one on the back window middle bottom, above the wiper, but not at the top in case i get a wing / spoiler. and one on the front behind the rear view mirror.

i notice its not a new car though, so the warranty company can make up their own rules e.g labour will be payed for at a rate of £10/hour, which is impossible to get.
