Everything just seems to go wrong! Its currently sat in a garage with no front brake cos the 4pot kit is sh*te and wont f**king fit, and I wont get it back til at least next week now. Everything seems to be that much more hassle with it. Its not the car itself, its just Renault and Clio and...

My mechanic has just phoned up a bit ago saying hes having trouble fitting my kit. He was saying summit about the caliper/pads not lining up right against the disc. Anyone else had this trouble? I seem to remember someone did......

Just spent the last hour tearing my garage apart trying to find my cat for the valvers MOT re-test on Friday. Quite typically, it was in the last place I looked! Id forgotten how big it was compared to my straight through de-cat pipe.....

Failed on the effiencey(sp) of both sides of the handbrake. Only spoken to my mate (whos my mechanic) on the phone, but he reckons at worst I could need new rear calipers, depending on the set up of the handbrake. I know most peoples handbrakes on their valvers are crap, just wondering how...

Right then, my car failed its MOT today due to an excessively noisy exhaust, even though the same bloke passed it last year but heh...... Anyway, Ive got the original K-Tec exhaust system and a straight through de-cat pipe which in truth does make it very loud. I havent heard a louder exhaust...

F**KIN BOLLOX! After only 3 months too! Just caught the left rear on the kerb off a T-Junction, would have got away with it if the kerb was about 8inches high! So, Ive got a nice couple of scuff marks just on the edge, not too deep but they well stand out. Any suggestions of how to make...

Basically, didnt notice a copper behind this other car off a r/a and preceded to accelerate upto about 45/50 in a 30. Empty d/c at 10:30pm, but still that shouldnt excuse me. Anyway, got a written warning that I had to sign (Section 59 I think they called it), saying if Im caught driving like...

Thought it was http://www.clifford.co.ukwww.clifford.co.uk but doesnt look like it....... Anyone know?

Thinking about getting my boot de-locked. Ive had a search about how to do this (any other advise would be cool tho), but Im not sure if I can hook it up to my alarm. I have a Clifford, the button is there waiting for summit to do lol......

A few people have asked me about my power/torque figures being slightly high for a lowly, if somewhat tuned, 1.8 16v...... .....well the answer - wheel spin lol! Had some problems getting a decent run on the rollers and getting readings, but the first run lit up the rollers (well my tyres...

Im after some red/black seat covers as at the moment, I havent got the cash for a leather/alcantara re-trim like Id like. Any ideas of where to look? Cant find a decent set anywhere....... Tom

My front brakes are finally shagged from over a years abuse so Im splashing out on a big brake conversion. Im after the 310mm conversion with new 4 pots, but a few questions before I spend my £££s.... Does anyone know the difference between the K-Tec and BBPT kits? The K-Tec is more...

There seems to be a lot of us on here that have this problem, that the revs suddenly drop to about 500rpm on idle and then pick back up, and then repeats..... Has anyone actually cured it if they had this problem? So far, Ive replaced; Lambda Sensor (twice - 1st time with a universal one...

Ideas I have my two ClioSport stickers in the rear side windows, a large K-Tec one on the windscreen, and a little K-Tec one on the top of the rear window. Need space at the bottom of the rear window for my mates bodyshop (who does the work cheap on my car hehe!) I cant think of anywhere...

The last couple of weeks my power steering has started making a bit of a noise. I checked the fluid level and its full, no leaks or anything. Is this something I need to worry about, or just learn to live with the noise.....

So Ive just ordered another sandwich plate with built in stat, as the other one has stuck open. How hard are they to fit, and how long do you think it will take for a good mechanic to swap over? Will I have to drain the oil first to do it? Just want an idea of the cost of labour, as I need...

Right, Ive blown one of my Infinity Kappas so Im after a new set of 6x9s. Should I get the same, or are there better available?

Right, had an Oil Cooler fitted last week by Nick at HillPower. I got a sandwich plate with a built in 80 degree stat. Nick said it was running about 90 degrees on the m/way, and fair enough on the way home, it was running about 80-85. The problem is now, after a couple of days, the oil is...
